I, for one, am in awe of their intellect.

Oh my.
The famous rabbit cage experiment from a couple of years ago.
That turned into a large campfire, ending with:

317. Locking
This thread has become more personal than a discussion of it's content. It is probably best to relegate this to the archives for citation.

311. Fine procedure for challenging the Titanic hoax.
I have some doubts myself about the official explanation of the sinking of the Titanic. Such unprecedented breaking-in-half of a big boat due to ice alone smells of controlled demolition. Besides, Osama Bin Laden wasn't even born at that time. Who would have moved the iceberg right in the path of the Titanic? What is the probability of this slow moving ice mass getting right there in that precise spot of the ocean just when the Titanic sailed by?
The chances of this are one in 100000000000000000000000.
There were numerous reports of explosions before the sinking. There are also countless witness reports of gas bubbles. Only thermite could produce so many bubbles and melt enough ice to drown so many people. (The official explanation is that people drowned in seawater or died of hypothermia. This makes no sense. Sea water is salty and has so much buoyancy that it is impossible to drown in it. And if people had felt so cold despite being fully clothed, they would just have rubbed each other in the back and would have lit fires on floating rafts.)
I am currently challenging the official story with a scientific experiment. I am performing tests with a plastic duck and an ice cube in my bathtub. The duck wouldn't sink however hard it bumps the cube. Yet the steel of the Titanic was so much stronger than the plastic of my duck. As for the ice of the alleged "iceberg" well, ice is ice. Also, the ice often melts even before the duck gets in its path. The official story is clearly ridiculous. I might post pictures soon.
I'll try again tomorrow with a paper boat instead of a duck and I'll use more ice. I know my little Titanic will eventually sink. Then I'll learn something.
If we could get enough people interested, we could apply for a 10 million dollars grant and construct a more accurate model of the Titanic -- somewhere in between a plastic duck and a paper boat. If they would release the original blueprints of the Titanic and allow us to examine the original steel, our task would be greatly facilitated. But no, they even illegally let the iceberg melt. This is criminal destruction of evidence. They will not get away with it.
bwahahahahaah PWNED!

DU is a place where not once ounce of rationality exists. But it is great for unintentional comedy entertainment.

It's starting to not be funny anymore. These f'n idiots may be running the country pretty soon.

Yeah. They and the politicians they support want this country to be just like China or North Korea.

The Chicken Coop Fire Experiment has to be one of the Top 10 all time stupid threads at the DUmp. I laugh out loud every time I read the self important posts by those rocket scientists over there.
Folks, you just cant buy entertainment this good. :bow: :bow: :bow:

I remember the burning rabbit cage experiment.
My homeowner's policy wouldn't cover teh damages because it has a clause statuing it was exempt from Acts of Dumbass.

No, that was Jason Leopold's claim, repeated by Wee Willy. Leopold's prediction came on a Friday with a follow-up on Saturday with the original claim of just "24 hours" (which you can see in Wee Willy's post on DU here (http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=364x1186820)) after Friday afternoon. When Leopold's critical error (i.e. the fact that no one will ever be prosecuted on a weekend) was caught, he retroactively added "business" to the claim, creating a hilariously nonsensical and conveniently vague phrase. Well, Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday passed with no indictment. Thursday came and went - no indictment. A full week passed as Leopold hid, likely trying desperately to come up with a way to save face. Then lo and behold, weeks later came 06 cr 128, i.e. the infamous "Sealed vs. Sealed" indictment which Leopold quickly claimed was the Rove indictment. What a boon! His bullshit could continue unabated. All he had to do was dodge the inconvenient question of why nothing was happening. He could just point to 06 cr 128 and claim it was the Rove indictment. Or so he thought. Ironically and hysterically enough, the VERY NEXT DAY Fitzgerald stated that he would not be seeking charges against Rove. Oopsies! Thus, a hilarious comedy of blunders came to an end - mostly. To this day, Leopold probably stands by his story and Pittstain and Marc Ash probably still believe him. I haven't heard otherwise (of course, I stopped following the story after Fitzgerald pulled the football away from Leopold).

Thanks, jinxmchue for posting the link to that thread. I forgot how funny it was. :rotf:

Heh. Remember when a fuel fire melted the steel rebar in a California freeway overpass? Not so fast!

Fortunately, another Internet expert provided the following diagrams of the freeway incident to explain how fire can, in fact, melt and destroy the bearing capacity of steel:

So, one must ask:
"Is fame more important than reputation?"
Which is to say, if you are famous throughout the internets and are used as a base reference is that a form of fame (Ok, infamy) and immortality?
And if you are used as an example of someone who is dumber than dirt and an example of exactly why idiots who know nothing about the subject matter should stay the hell off those internets, is that a bad thing?
The allure of the klieg lights -- a sign of mental retardation.
