I just realized that Brent is a Tru Bro^®, seeing as how me managed to orchestrate a threadsplit from his phone.

OP was from my phone, that's why you're seeing that icon.

Sorry to burst your hero-worship.

No, I really am.

Okay, so this appears to be what happened.

Thank you, CBS.

BP using unnecessarily toxic dispersant in clean-up due to conflict of interests.

Three days later, the gov decides to do something about it

~~Shit~~Oil hits ~~fan~~Louisiana.

God must really hate the bayou for some reason. Give the Saints one good season and he wreaks terrible havoc using the Folly of Man itself.

Fortunately, the damage may be ultimately reversible, thanks to that thing that turns Kevin Costner's piss into Perrier.

That is the BEST THING IN THE ENTIRE WORLD.

I love that instead of being some untested junk, it's basically a centrifuge, which everybody knows works.

So apparently there's another spill somewhere else now? Geez. So much for saltwater life.

On the bright hand, I get to post this:

Bill Nye explains Operation Top Kill for non-science guys.

Shit didn't work.

teg · « **Reply #31 on:** May 29, 2010, 07:25:46 PM »

I'd like to say I'm surprised, but I'm really not.

Maybe it was how Bill Nye sounded nowhere near as reassuring as usual when describing it.

If Kevin Costner won't fix everything then by God James Cameron will.

Now if Spielburg, Lucas and Brooks all got joined in and combined their magical Director powers they could all summon... I dunno, Orson Welles or something. I bet he'd plug up the hole pretty nicely.

Those morons don't know what they're doing

oh i feel much more reassured now

We can only hope he is eventually crushed to death under the weight of his own ego before he makes Avatar 2.

To be fair, he's absolutely correct, though.

Avatar 2 will involve a man who heads to a pure water world that some company is trying to hide/avoid bad PR on because of a toxic accident. He's brought in and put into one of the Mer-people/catfish people's bodies as a sort of liason and pacifier, but instead falls in love with them. He then has to fight against his own company to reach out and get the message out to the human worlds that they are destroying this world and the people. All because this toxic liquid resource can be refined into unobtainium.

The company's name will be called BeuoPilin.

The dude is basically an extreme expert on underwater machinery and vehicles and activity. Pretty reasonable choice as one of the several members in a board of experts on the topic.

And then Dennis Hopper's animated corpse* shows up as a rogue villain in charge of a giant tanker full of unobtainium, mad-max-style jetskis, and ~~spam~~ smeat?

BP buying search engine terms to redirect people looking for news on the oil spill to their website.

So now when someone searches the words ‘oil spill’, on the internet, the top link will re-direct them to BP’s official company website.
