Mar 11 2010WE ARE THE PEOPLE OF THE INTERNET!
This is promo commercial for the BBC's upcoming series, 'Superpower', a show airing this month which will investigate the ways in which the interwebs are transforming the world. It's narrated by what I thought was a ghost-alien at first, but actually turned out to be A PERSON OF THE INTERNET. Which, if you're reading this, guess what -- YOU ARE TOO! WE ARE THE PEOPLE OF THE INTERNET! Now, let's all huddle in front of our screens and make a positive change! Huh? Oh come on! Fine -- FINE! -- after a porn-break.
Thanks to Fan_Thomas, who once stopped Fan_Thomas_The_Tank_Engine just by lining quarters up on the tracks.

So the internet already realizes that we probably won't survive as a species....?

Wow, 3 people of the internet effected positive change by posting the word for the number their post was.
Like awesome logging corporations give a shit about a bunch of cry baby losers who use the interweb. They fucking have chainsaws! They go outside! In daylight!
This is one "intenet person" who hopes that this show catches fire and explodes, as that would be its only opportunity to entertain and illuminate.

It's powerful enough to tell me that I forgot a freaking comma.
Now where is Obama? I want to sit down and talk about the impending Robot Apocalypse.

There are three sides in the Internet:
- Light side ( what we saw in the video )
- Dark side ( what we see here )
- Porn side ( what we see everywhere )

You know what the people of the internet would say to Obama upon meeting him?
"FIIIIIRST!!!"
Weather they were first or not. Yeah, and I think anyone would lose all hope for humanity from the internet after being at chatroulette.

We are the people of the internet, and we will make human procreation less satisfying- because you will never find a girl that does the kind of sh!t you jack-off to.

Its a a power yes, but as blade, double edged.. you can cut yourself....
smart people can access and empower knowledge, science, maths, culture, arts.. ..educate and help with light shining on dark corners...
BUT also is free access for a lot of zealots, ignorants, criminals, terrorists, ignorants with big egos and a demagogic charming tongue, .. just look at the number of blogs about creationism /ID and anti science junk, Religious and dogmatic cults , campaigns of terror, serial killers doing "twittering" around, entrepreneurs and their slaves under web-cam vigilance halfway the globe..etcetc. Ah, And don't forget all the pedobear stuff..!!!
