4. No, it's true, really.
I think the WH says it's green or something like that. I don't believe them either.

10. True, but black includes the entire color spectrum so
technically, the sky is blue too, right now.

7. What the hell ever. Why don't you just keep twisting things to support
your own opinion, and why don't you kiss *'s ass while you are at it, as you are obviously a troll for saying such riduculous things.


And your popcorn smilie is part of a heneious plot to destroy DU. REAL DU'ers use this one:

No added trimmings!

16. A waving smilie? A grinning devil? MORE popcorn? That is it!
What is that smilie looking so happy about? Has he been eating babies again, like all of you (insert minority group here)?

And the popcorn eater - living off the sweat of the other smilies!

Well, their popcorn..... but still! Just like you! You metaphorically eat the popcorn of others!

The grease on your guilty fingers is representative of the fire it starts to warm the dish to pop the corn of an increasingly tortous analagy!

So there!

And as for the devil smilie, it is representative of how you LOVE BUSH WHO IS THE DEVIL.

We all know that you actually support global warming, because I walked today more than you did! And I drove less! And I cause less harm to animals who don't vote for Bush than you! HOW DARE YOU PUSH PEOPLE OUT OF THE WAY ON THE ESCALATOR ON THE WAY UP TO OLIVE GARDEN!

And what is more, the SKY IS NOT BLUE.

Just admit it, but you never will because you are a FReeper and they never do!

22. Oh.shit.
:rofl:

I'll eat baby corn on the cob any day of the week. So yes I eat babies. So there. :evilgrin:

And as to the sweat...What do you think I use to pop the popcorn. :popcorn:

The sky is blue. And yes, I love popcorn. I'll eat anyone's popcorn if they let me. :popcorn:

Woah, I definitely DO NOT love Bush, but I sure can be bad sometimes. :evilgrin:

Did you release lots of gas while you walked? You were breathing the whole time you were walking, I'd bet. So there, you contributed to it too. :P

I avoid Olive Garden like the plague. Don'cha know we red staters eat at KFC. :crazy:

BTW, I AIN'T NO STINKING FREEPER. I eat FReeper babies for breakfast, lunch and dinner. :P

Oh yeah, and the sky is still blue, blue, blue. :P :eyes:

33. Ha! My latin training hasn't failed me - I say to you 'pro patria
moray eel, my son, pro patria moray eel!' (Taken from show I like).

Baby corn? You evil person! Don't you know how cramped baby corn is kept to make it that tender? Eat veal instead. So not only do you love Bush, you are a vegetarian!

As for the sweat... ewwwwwwwwwwwww!

POPCORN ADDICT! Eating popcorn isn't inbuilt, it is a LIFESTYLE CHOICE, FReeper! So not only do you love Bush, but you are also very happy eating popcorn (or 'gay' as it is known, for bieng so happy)

Definitely do not love Bush?

You mean that you don't just love Bush, you freaking adore him? I THOUGHT SO, FREEPER TROLL!

Red staters? RED? Aha! You're from the soviet union! So not only do you love Bush, but you are also a communist!

Eat FReeper babies for breakfast? They are pink, are newborns, so I will call you a pinko.

In summary, you are a gay pinko FReep Bush loving Communist vegetarian troll complicated mutually exclusive insult!

And the sky is blue only if you are too afraid to see the TRUTH!

So there.

48. Because you're confused - embrace the real truth, my friend:
1) The lack of pirates causes global warming

2) The lack of Clintmax in the mornings leads to terrorist attacks

3) Analagies ARE THE DEVIL.

4) You can only realise your full potential if your convince NASA that spaghetti is a verb.

BUT of course you won't accept THE TRUTH because you are blinded by THE FALSE THEORY OF SMEVOLUTION - which of course states that people were created by their noses.

18. Of course it will
If it had stayed in GD you'd inevitably get responses like "doesn't this belong in the Lounge?", and "why is this tripe stinking up GD when we have important flamewars to conduct?".

It's good your post was moved--it definitely would have turned into a flamewar.


"No, the sky is not actually blue. It is a perception caused by light rays refracting blah blah blah...."

19. The sky is blue for the same reason that the sun is yellow
The sun is really white, but the blue light gets scattered out by the atmosphere. The scattered blue light makes the sky look blue, and meanwhile the sun looks yellowish with some of its blue removed. This is of course also why the sun looks red at sunrise and sunset - at these times the sunlight has to pass through even more air to reach us, so even more blue is scattered out, leaving it looking red.
