Deer Voters: Here Is Why You Will Get Just What You Deserve On November 6

Tyler Durden's picture




We know it's Monday and Monday is not a day to joke around; but in light of this evening's debate and our nation's ever-decreasing educational prowess (and yet stable voting capability - i.e. everyone gets a vote!), we thought this clip (via Monty Pelerin's World) summed up perfectly how someone who seemingly sounds so well-spoken and lucid can be so utterly and completely clueless. The first minute will whet your appetite but listen on for the full logic of why deer crossings should be moved from busy highways...

Tin drones and Obama coming,
We're finally gonna see.
This summer I heard the drumming,
Four dead in Benghazi.

Gotta get down to it
Feds are cutting us down
Should have been done long ago.
What if you knew Chris
And found him dead on the ground
How can you run when you know?

"Back in the 1980s, Yosemite National Park was having a serious problem with bears: They would wander into campgrounds and break into the garbage bins. This put both bears and people at risk. So the Park Service started installing armored garbage cans that were tricky to open -- you had to swing a latch, align two bits of handle, that sort of thing. But it turns out it's actually quite tricky to get the design of these cans just right. Make it too complex and people can't get them open to put away their garbage in the first place. Said one park ranger, "There is considerable overlap between the intelligence of the smartest bears and the dumbest tourists."

There is a simple solution to the problem. The point is the sign has yellow background and the deer depicted on the image is not crossed. Obviously, the deer gets confused and so would I - may I trespass the road or may I not?. Instead of relocation the sign should be simply red colored and the deer image crossed. That's it!

I think the chick would fully agree with the solution...

If you live at the equator there is no reason for it, unless you go to the maldives where each island chooses their time zone according to the desires of their guests.
BTW it,s not time that messes you up, it,s your acceptance of the daily tasks at a predefined time schedule that creates your problem.

ZeroHedge readers have always been terrible at understanding deadpan satire. Just look at how often people respond negatively to MDB.

A true deadpan comedian will usually leave some clues that show they're joking, but never come right out and admit they're joking so as to not completely spoil the humor. In this case, the giveaway was when the host suggested that the signs were meant to warn drivers, and the woman tried to dodge the comment and continue with her schtick.

Debate? Meaningless.

Frivolous.

The REAL issues are avoided like the bubonic plague!

No matter who gets "in" things will remain the same. Expect nothing less.

Red, blue, green, white, black, yellow, red, take your pick. Same old. Same old.

Just shoot the damn deer.  They must be the ones eating all our economic "green shoots".

Confusing cause and effect is classic modern American behavior. It's like Ben Bernanke believing that insufficient fiat causes depressed real-goods creation, rather than understanding that depressed real-goods creation causes insufficient fiat. Moving a "Deer Crossing" sign to change deer behavior is no dumber than printing money to create actual wealth.

I think it's real (the deer crossing video). The woman called again: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JB1yEcdomt0 (not really worth listening to but anyway...)

Yes, some people have never been challenged to use their grey mass, even discouraged strongly to do so, or even tried themselves. They ARE sheep and choose their fate. Nevertheless, they are human beings and if the smarter, more awake bipeds have no compassion for them, none will be shown to them.

We're all in the same shithole. Some float on top, some already at the bottom, but who will be counting when it all gets flushed?

I was actually considering voting just to vote out all the incumbents, but seriously: Do any of you think that even if 100% of voters voted one way or the other it would make any difference as to what TPTB implement? I won't even waste my time or gas to get to the booth.

IMHO what I think is brilliant about the nature of this video post is her comment, "of course the government can control where the deer cross." "The deer cross wherever the government puts the signs". 

 

This video is a great way to highlight how silly it is to believe the government really has so much control over our lives. 

Yes. We are free people, yet the government would have us believe that wherever the they put the signs is really where we should cross. 

This highlights the government's ILLUSION of CONTROL.

The city of San Diego painted out all the crosswalks in the city at the suggestion of a brilliant public servant.  The justification was that more pedestrians were killed in crosswalks than in any other part of the roadways.  As you might surmise fatalities increased.  Now the city is slowly repainting crosswalsk everywhere.  It's a good idea they didn't control the hospitals.

Tonight's debate is unwatchable for me, but I think I will tune into the third party debate tomorrow night, live streaming from Al Jazeera and Russia Today .  CSpan apparently doesn't think its newsworthy.  Don't want the sheeple to think there are any alternatives outside the duopoly.

"[Executive producer] Wheelock said that part of Al Jazeera English's mission is "to try to provide the voice and be in places where other people aren't -- to cover areas, countries, states, cultures that aren't routinely covered by the traditional broadcast networks and cable networks." (Huffpo)

makes for great ideas to generate awareness for radio stations. 

 

1. Take an obvious situation

2. Respond in a very stupid manner

3. Generate awareness for stupidity. 

Seems easier than capitalizing on being clever.

Meme Therapy..

I would like to see a pop up ad for a Kaleidoscope so that I may purchase an item which may give me a better perspective on how things work and where we are headed.

+1 for any good recommendations on Kaleidoscopes. I will do my best to share a good product with a good story to my network of top observers.

This will play well to a market of rich observers. They will pay well for a good product. Perhaps an expanding series of three brass barrels, a 200 mm objective lens almost flat a decent wide field eyepiece,

The biggest problem we have with entitlements for both the .001 and the rest of you folks is the perspective lock down.

The question I’m asking me now is “What ideas am I a sheep too?”

Celebrating the end of the bounty from last year’s harvest, with a big pot of Venison chili simmering in the kitchen to fortify  our little band of merry men for the November 3rd Deer opener in Minnesota.

Per a year of trail cam recon including Infra Red video clips, leveraging Google Earth and finely tuned human algos. We know, have a plan for fun and mean to execute.

I would be most pleased to see an Ad pop up whereby I can purchase some of those deer crossing signs to place on the game trails in the middle of the wild wolves.

Howling laughter is among the best kind.

In the middle of the wild.

Be safe hunting, or dangerous as you wish.

Seems to me that if you would just post a "NO DEER WITHIN 500 FEET" sign, that would cure the problem, no? Put 'em up in high traffic areas, or where theres been a few collisions? jeez, what the fuck is going on......there should be an open season on these dumb asses, and I don't mean the venison.
