rabscuttle385:

I intend to turn on all my lights and computers. Oh, and I’ll make sure to drive to the store to buy some ice cream.


lady lawyer:

Every light in the house on. Three plasma TV’s on — even though there are only two of us in the house. The Christmas lights we haven’t taken off the roof yet — on. Also putting out the floods we use to illuminate the house for the holidays, just for the occasion.

Oh yeah, we start up some laundry, and maybe vacuum a little, and cook something.


LiberConservative:

There are actual people who actually think that turning off the lights for one hour tonight will actually accomplish something. (Yes, LiberConservative, as opposed to turning on every appliance in the house and purposely wasting power.)


al baby:

Im going to have sex with the wife not sure what were going to do with the other 57 minutes


black_diamond:

And microwave something too.

I just wish I still had my Christmas lights up.


Winstons Julia:

Computer on? Check.

TV on? Check.

Lights on? Check.

Will be cooking a big meal? Check.

I’m such a rebel.

Hey...I could be washing some clothes, too.

If they can get us to volunteer to turn the lights off, it’ll be that much easier to FORCE us to.


dr_who:

LOL! Those liberals sure are funny!

All lights on tonight!


NoGrayZone:

Just don’t forget to leave all your lights on before you leave! (This was is in response to poster "UFC Pride K1" saying, "If it’s a clear sky, I’ll stargaze - living in NYC means we miss out on plenty of awesome sights in the night sky..")


manc:

earth hour, do these idiots actually think any of this actually makes a difference . Anyway first I have heard about it but now I do then I will be getting all my outside lights on now and think I'll have a nice outside fire going too. The lunatics haven't taken over my state of florida so no ban for fires here. Be able to smell that fire for quite a distance too


indcons:

I’m dong my bit to remind FReepers so that we can nmake up for the energy “saved” by the liberals and other socialist @sshats.


Conservativegreatgrandma:

We live on a lake and have harbor lights. They’ll be on as well as all other outside and inside lighting. (This "great" grandma's sig-line reads: "When the righteous rule, the people rejoice; when the wicked rule the people mourn. Proverbs 29;2." Apparently, in the freeper-god's definition of "righteous" is wasting energy, but "the wicked" conserve energy. Nice.)


MediaMole:

Spring is here, time to test the engines in all the power equipment. Run the lawn mower, the weed whacker and the leaf blower. Make sure all the outdoor bulbs work.

It’s also a good time to check for burned out bulbs around the house. Turn them all on just to make sure.


Dick Bachert:

Going to burn several old tires and an effigy of ALGORE made of creosote soaked cowm manure.


Vaquero:

firing up electric heaters, if it gets cold... leaving all my 5 computers and all 5 tvs on 3 TV boxes and another 2 that are also DVR’s.

I generaly keep things off to save MONEY( the real green I think about) but tonite I celebrate my independence from the messiah and especially from that waste of real estate...the UN.

may the UN rot...and may the messiah get the bums rush from the SCOTUS for being an alien.......


Red_Devil 232:

We should promote an Anti Earth Hour that will begin at 9:30 pm and last until 9:30 am tomorrow.

Anti Earth Hour is a request for every one to turn on every light, electrical appliance, A/C and Heat units and to start and leave running anything that requires the dreaded gasoline!

The purpose is to keep all the eco-libritards in the dark and cold/heat the rest of the night and morning!


Nowhere Man:

Well, I'll most likely be watching Retro Television Network, "Voyagers!" and "Buck Rogers" are on, they broadcast old TV shows. I just wish I had an old "roundie" (back then, color TV's had round picture tubes) color TV from the 1950's or 1960's, with all those tubes in the set, I can suck down the amps really well. Come to think of it, your plasma TV's suck down about the same amount of power as an old roundie.


CodeToad:

I am turning on all my lights, including running the cars with their lights on.


Viking2002:

I think I'll turn on both heaters and both air conditioners, and fart around with the thermostats until I get the whole house right at 68 degrees.

Could take until sunrise tomorrow.


Rocko:

Turn on all the lights and blast Iggy Pop and the Stooges up to 11.


alloysteel:

Turn on the A/C, open the refrigerator door extra long, turn on ALL the lights, even in rooms I do not normally go into, and keep the computer on while sitting in the next room, watching TV on the big-screen, only getting up to pop more popcorn in the microwane oven.

Yeah, I can celebrate in my own way.


(This next freeper appears to be something of a poet.)

HuntsvilleTxVeteran:

There should be a total blackout in the cities.

That will allow the looters plenty of time to

liberate the items they deserve by being poor.


freedumb2003:

Lights, fans, computers, all TVs, AC to max —

I am all set!

Now, before you go criticizing their grammar and spelling, exercise some liberal compassion and try to remember that freepers are among the least educated and most inbred on the planet. It would be hypocritical of us, as open-minded progressives, to judge them for lifestyle choices that include skipping school so they can have sex with their siblings!

[Donnachaidh]

1. childish morons

I'll bet every single one of these assholes were either the bullies in kindergarden, or the hall monitors in high school. And still throwing poutfests as adults.

[tridim]

2. Morans.

Seriously, what's the freaking point? Proving they are assholes?

[NightWatcher]

3. fuck em. Life's too short to worry about them. They are only wasting our oxygen

I dont understand how some can go there and read that shit. Seriously, fuck 'em and leave them to die from stupidity. Life's too short to worry about the idiots.

[Tuvok Obama]

6. I can't very often. Maybe once a month

Today I did it specifically to see what they would be saying about Earth Hour. I actually thought there might be a modicum of debate about the subject. Even for freepers, this unanimity of wastefulness shocked me.

I've mastered not slowing down to look at car crashes, but I must confess I still have to peel back the rock and look at Free Republic from time to time.

[NightWatcher]

8. I've got freeper family members and I just pat them on the head instead of exchanging dialogue

[Tuvok Obama]

13. So do I, and...

...I have to humor them in much the same way. I've learned that trying to have a meaningful discussion with them is less than pointless.

For example, when I expressed to my freeper brother my dislike for Sean Hannity, I learned from a mutual friend that my brother complained of my "moral and spiritual bankruptcy" over that dislike.

Imagine being declared morally and spiritually bankrupt for not liking Sean Hannity! (Or maybe you don't have to imagine it, given your similar situation.)

11. Thanks a lot. I live in a trailer and I bet lots of other DUers do also.

I would really hope that people here would be above simplistic stereotypes, but I guess I was hoping for too much.

[ima_sinnic]

32. I live in a trailer too, purposely for cheap rent in a detached dwelling

try finding 1000 sq ft of home (not apartment) for $525 with a huge yard, wildlife, and lots of privacy.

Let them laugh while they pay $1700 for a 300 sf studio apt. Now, who's the moron?

[elocs]

43. I guess we are having the last laugh there. My lot rent is $210/month.

A nice mobile home park in a nice part of town. I couldn't get a decent 1 room apartment for $210 a month. For me it's perfect.

[ima_sinnic]

45. excellent!

that will serve you well in a real depression. That is a pittance.

[elocs]

48. Thinking of "depression" at the beginning of March I paid my rent through December.

I thought if worse comes to worst at least I'll have a place to live. I couldn't be happier with where I live. It's in the city, on the bus lines and close to everything yet I live a block from a river where eagles fly as common as sparrows in the late winter/early spring and today I just saw flocks of geese flying down the Mississippi River flyway.

[ima_sinnic]

50. I'm out in the country, with lots of privacy and woods and meadows to explore

and a big garden and several birdfeeders.

[Sarah Ibarruri]

5. It's too bad the freepers won't be celebrating Earth Hour by shooting off their toes!

I'd watch! :rofl:

[Commie Pinko Dirtbag]

7. "I'll protest by throwing my money away!"

Yeah, you do that.

As somebody else said, I'm hoping for lots of blown fuses and subsequent miserable hours in some still ice-cold regions. Fuckers.

[SammyWinstonJack]

9. Such full basements they have.

:evilgrin:

[azmouse]

10. Stupid is as stupid does.

[louis-t]

12. They believe anything that's good for the planet

or productive is perceived as being weak. Repugs have to be destroying something or somebody to be happy.

[gratuitous]

14. Sending money to their local Enron agency

That'll sure show us!

:shrug:

[acmavm]

15. What trash. But there's a woman somewhere that's going to be in for

3 minutes of real disgust tonight:

<snip>
al baby:

Im going to have sex with the wife not sure what were going to do with the other 57 minutes
<snip>

[fizzgig]

16. i caught that, too

he sure did seem really proud of that :eyes:

[pipi_k]

24. Make that 90 seconds of real disgust...

He's probably got to get warmed up on the rubber blow-up doll for the first 90 seconds.

[acmavm]

38. Yeah, I was wondering about the foreplay part but then my mind told me

to knock it off.

[friedgreentomatoes]

30. i was wondering

sex takes just 3 minutes? :shrug:

[alfredo]

36. She's the wife. he can't remember her name.

[CatholicEdHead]

47. They have pills for that now if he is really having problems

:crazy:

[krabigirl]

17. lol, I don't participate either, but for different reasons. I conserve energy all the time ro

not for some gimmicky hour.

[HysteryDiagnosis]

18. I'll be they'll all let the ice shelf melt too. n/t

20. Amateurs.

Rush didn't go into enough detail when telling them to do this.

All windows and doors must be wide open. Cold-weather Freeps need to set the thermostat at 90. Warm weather Ditto heads, at 30.

All faucets running at full blast...hot water, of course.

Set the oven at 450, and leave the door open. Don't forget those refrigerators! Think of how much energy will be used if you open the door, and allow that light bulb to stay lit for a full hour.

The freezer gobbles up amps. Prop the door open. What's a little spoiled food, when you are trying to make your voices heard?

In the flood lands? You can participate too. Forget the sandbags. Just picture how much electricity you will be using with your wet vac!

You don't need to take a drive, just turn the key and let 'er idle. Put a brick on the gas pedal. If you choose to do this in a closed garage, make sure you stay with the car to observe. Wouldn't want the engine to overheat...or anything.

Why just one hour? Why not all day, every day? Unless you are truly willing to commit yourselves to this issue, no one will even notice.
C'mon Rushkies...you can do it. :patriot:

[depakid]

21. Stupid and self-destructive people

have always existed- but media deregulation and consolidation has made the matter exponentially worse in America.

Sadly, there are now about two generations brought up unable to critically think, and reinforced into the lowest stages of moral development. The only thing to do is to keep releataing them to the fringe- and away from any sort of power and influence over public policy making.

[buff2]

22. LOL!

Don't they realize doing all the spiteful crap they plan to do will RAISE THEIR ELECTRIC BILLS??? Gaawd.... :rofl:

[pipi_k]

27. That's OK...

When their utilities get shut off for nonpayment, they'll be doing their own version of Earth Hour.

For more than just one hour.


:7




PS...being as stupid as they are should be a crime.

[pipi_k]

23. Well, so much for the concept of unity, eh?

Even if it doesn't accomplish much to shut off one's lights for an hour, what's the harm in doing it to show that we are all children of our Mother Earth?

Assholes.

It really IS all about THEM, isn't it?

[Arkana]

25. Wow, they sure are awesome! Fuck the establishment, man!

[Cleita]

26. These people are certifiably insane.

Somehow I don't care if the coming depression affects them. They deserve it. I myself have lived off the grid in the past and could do so again without an ounce of discomfort.

[Kingofalldems]

28. Confiscate their guns

I would love to see that.

[malaise]

29. Poor Fweepers

The longest journey begins with a single step.

[BuyingThyme]

31. Hey, one of them made a joke.

How weird.

[spoony]

33. "We should promote an Anti Earth Hour [from] 9:30 pm ...until 9:30 am tomorrow"

A 12-hour hour. I wonder what this guy's clocks look like.

[pamela]

52. They are such idiots.

It's almost unbelievable how stupid they are.

Besides, Freepers are "Anti Earth" every day. No need to set aside a designated time period for that in Freeperland.

[Incitatus]

34. pathetic bunch of simpletons nt

[alfredo]

35. Not judging by telling them to go fuck themselves.

[Old and In the Way]

37. I'd expect nothing less from these anti-socialists.

Really, we should promote a "DO NOT JUMP OFF A BRIDGE" day. They'd be compelled to do it just to spite us socialists.

[Thickasabrick]

39. Hopefully they don't kill themselves having all those appliances on

at once.

[flvegan]

40. Ok DUers, show of hands...who's surprised?

Seriously, who expected anything different from that group of cousinfuckers anyway?

[Tuvok Obama]

51. Guilty

I knew they would scoff, which is why I went there to check in the first place, but I had no idea that they'd be stupid enough to purposely waste as much energy as possible.

It's both a blessing and a curse, this ability of mine to be continually surprised at the actions stupid people.

[Champion Jack]

41. Lots of big talk from a few tiny dicks

who cares? They lost

[Warren DeMontague]

42. "And then, I'm going to smash my big toe with a hammer, take a shit in my refrigerator,

and let all the air out of my own car tires"

That'll show those pesky inhabitants of Planet Earth!

[Elwood P Dowd]

44. A bunch of these fools are going to have tripped breakers.

It would be funny if their main breaker croaked and they had to pay an electrician $100.00 to replace it. I'm sure these fools don't have the brains for the job.

[ima_sinnic]

46. idea for fweepers: drive w/headlights off from 8 pm to 6 am

to prove that commie pinko dirtbag common sense is moranic!!!!!11!

[Sheepshank]

49. what morans

first:
"We should promote an Anti Earth Hour that will begin at 9:30 pm and last until 9:30 am tomorrow."

Just how long is an hour on their world?

Second:
How does giving the power and gas company more money for running appliances prove their point?

Dumbasses
