It’s Earth Day!


 
 22 Apr 2012   Uncategorized

It’s Earth Day, which means it’s your time to think about ways you can help protect this great planet we all call home.

Eh, fuck it, the world’s supposed to end in December, so I’m gonna go with a few more cocktails, a ridiculously giant salad, and this:

I have no clue what he’s talking about, but I can hear nice AND peace, so that’s, like, double good, right?

    Sailormoon’s magical transformation goes horribly wrong.

    I notice a number of those suggestions have to do with getting online and doing “feel good” slacktivism.  I’m not going to open up a pinterest account just to show people how green I can be.

       I’d recommend picking one. That one being watching Nice Peace and taking a shot every time you feel weird.

        So the entire time then?

        • dailyoftheday

           Sounds like a good party to me!

             I was planning on drinking all day anyway. Its nice to have goals.

        I do not have enough alcohol for that. :(

    I’m already pretty damn conservative when it comes to being green. I recycle paper, glass, metal, and plastic. I turn off the water in the shower when I’m not actively rinsing (same with washing dishes and brushing teeth, of course). I only have the heat on in the room I’m in and I keep the doors closed to keep the heat contained. I also use energy-conserving light bulbs in several sockets (the kind that are really dim when you turn them on, and take a few minutes to get up to full brightness), and I only use lights in the room I’m in. And I unplug everything I’m not actively using except for two lamps. I guess I’m kind of a hippie ;)

    As for this chart, I already take short showers with very little water usage… I don’t use Pinterest and don’t plan to… and I don’t use a smartphone nor a treadmill. I guess I could turn off my computer more often, though… I never turn it off, it just goes into sleep mode when I’m not using it. Maybe I should turn it off more often?

    Some time ago a friend gave me an Aloe Vera plant (or is it technically a cactus?) and I’ve been watering it diligently. It is the only plant I own. I’m worried about it dying. I think it’s trying to, just to piss me off. Sometimes I feel like grabbing it and shouting, “Don’t you die on me, you bastard!” What does this have to do with Earth Day? I don’t know.

       This has EVERYTHING to do with Earth Day. It’s such a perfect metaphor. Thank you. It’s beautiful.

        Awww. Really?

           Kidding of course. You know I love you.

           that image is almost too cute.. I’m gonna make a mask of it

      Are you sure it would be a good idea to grab the cactus while shouting that?  ‘Cause I’m pretty sure your shout would transform into “OWWW, what the fuck did I do that for?  MY HAND!!!”

    What am I supposed to do with a million Olympic sized swimming pools full of water?

      Drown Kony?

      Not sure whether it was your intention, but every time you comment I almost hope you say something moronic so I can say “Nice work, Einstein”. Unfortunately, you’re just too damn awesome for that to happen.

      THAT SAID, I’m now tempted to change my name to Sherlock for vaguely related reasons.

        I’ll turn off my spell check. That should make it super easy for you, Madame McSherlock.

          Aw, that’s okay! The joke’s been said, so I’m happy.
