There's too many people on the planet. Fuck off with your kids.

I'm starting to suspect I know what @Big G's real job is:

Little bastard immune to good parenting

C'mon G own up - you write for the Mash don't you?

It's certainly the best place to get an honest interpretation of the news!

Too right, this genetic need to reproduce is bollocks for our species. We don't have to reproduce and it is likely going to be the end for us, one way or another.

 

[dysfunction]

We do need to reproduce otherwise we would become extinct.

We don't need to reproduce at the rate we are now!
A tipping point will come but perhaps a plague or something will come along and reduce the population significantly before that happens.

 

[Raven]

Tease.

 

[old.user4556]

we would become extinct.

We're already well and truly heading down that path.

 

[dysfunction]

Well not really. I think someone calculated that you could put the entire worlds population into Texas if you built it up with the same population density as New York.
Granted you wouldnt want to live like that but it could be done.

That would leave the entire rest of the world to support the newly created "Texas" population.
Using the rest of the US could feed that many people.

 

[old.user4556]

I'm talking war, disease, comets and asteroids. There's been several mass extinctions before, there will be more, and if that doesn't get us, the sun will.

The difference being other species didn't have the means to do anything about it. I for one am more optimistic about our chances.

I saw something that said the peak population is gonna be about ten billion as the reason for many kids is going away in a lot of the devloping countries. And those developing countries are getting better infant mortality rates. That makes he need for many kids goes down like it has in the west.

Well the sun will get us in a few billion years unless you think we can terraform planets outside our solar system. A long way outside.

 

[dysfunction]

In a few billion years I would have thought we would have done a lot more than just terraform a planet!

 

[DaGaffer]

We'll have scrapped the Sun for parts long before then.

Google Docs. Fuck me it's an annoying pile of shite. Made worse by the fact I have to switch between Google and MS Office all the time.

Ouch. Oh well, silver lining, you'll have to buy that bike you were after now!

 

[Bodhi]

That's really not good @Scouse , feel for ya dude.

Any concept of Travel Insurance sorting out another bike whilst you're over there? I know plenty of places in California that hire them, kind of limits you to the areas around Santa Barbara however.

Although there are worse places to be stuck....

 

[Tom]

Some people are just cunts, including whoever nicked your bike. I hope it doesn't cause you too many difficulties, you should easily be able to replace it with something half decent considering where you are.

 

[old.user4556]

Thieves.

I fucking hate everyone.

 

[CorNokZ]

People behind the wheel of a car who do everything but drive. Checking Facebook, talking on the phone, looking at the radio to change channel, chatting with those in the backseat and what not. Drive the car while you're driving ffs

 

[dysfunction]

I want some 100% cocoa chocolate. Why is it so fucking expensive? 90% stuff from Lindt is like £1.50 per 100g. 100% stuff on the internet is about four or five times that.

Cunts. Even the 99% stuff from Lindt comes in a package that looks identical to the regular stuff, but when you open it you realise there's only 50g instead of 100g in there.

Because they don't want you making your own chocolate. Making the 100% stuff more expensive doesn't make it worthwhile.

[TdC]

pro tip: get a police statement on paper. your insurance will be a lot less of a cunt if you have it.

[fettoken]

Where were you when the bike got stolen? Did you park it out in the woodwork, near a small town, or in a larger city?

 

[Raven]

Vets bills, £120 for a visit, x-ray and some pain killers because my cat was limping badly. Not so bad after £15k on chemo and ops (covered by insurance thankfully) but those buggers know how to make a quid.

 

[Scouse]

Cheers gents.

I was in Santa Cruz last night. Went into a bar mainly because I was desparate for a piss. Had a very quick drink and came out to find just my lock, cut in half.

When I went back in everyone told me that Santa Cruz is bike theft capital of the usa - abd people I've been speaking to today have been repeating the same thing. Saying the mayor (or somesuch) is good at keeping that fact quiet. :/

I've given all the details to the cops and registered on a californian bike theft thingy. The guys in SC say I've a very slim chance of retrieval.

Hey ho. Easy come, easy go. It's just a 'thing' but one I was very fond of. It should be insured tho.

However, I won't let bike theft interrup lt my trip. I've ordered a Nomad from a bike shop there, condition of sale is that it's ready for me to pick up tomorrow afternoon. They were really good (as has everyone been, yanks really do do service well) and knocked a chunk off (without being asked) as they know I won't be making any warranty claims against them.

Yeah, it's a big expense I could do without but I'm increasingly riding a lot of gnarly stuff, and I've had the okay from the missus to replace the Cotic too - so I'll be two bikes terry from now on.

Still. Absolute fucker. If anyone had given me any shit this morning I'd have stabbed them.
