A check by Penn and Teller (notorious debunkers) to see, at a rally...how many people they could get to sign a petition banning dihydrogen monoxide (water). No lies told to potential signers.

Hey, that dihydrogen monoxide is dangerous stuff. Kills thousands every year.

75%+ of attendees at any rally for any cause will be "joiners." That's actually an episode from a couple of years ago. It kind of shows how irrelevant the "environmental movement" is anymore though, huh?

No, it just shows that you can get people to sign a petition if you make it sound good.

Ever see the Man Show skit where they get a bunch of women to sign a petition ending women's right to vote?

yes, many of them are joiners and posers with little to no understanding of what it is they are pretending to be upset about. just like their equivalent in reverse that cruises around here frequently.

Another fine example of how posts should look.

You have a problem with the way some posts look?

i remember something in MAD magazine years ago making fun of hippies...

"they'll join anything... except the work force."
