[Bl4ckAndBlu3Mau5]

Jeez, why do people who do keyboard art for comments get so many thumbs?

----- Look, it's a worm, now where's my thumbs?

[DJspiderize]

@Bl4ckAndBlu3Mau5 Jeez, why do people who copy other comments for thumbs up get so many?

....Look I just partly copied yours, now wheres my thumbs?

[BLKVPR188]

Alright guys, lets get real here. I can understand it when two people post the same thing and both are top rated comments. But these are by THE SAME PERSON. Have some dignity.

[Thievingnoob]

"If you buy this thing it will be the last thing you ever need to buy"

There...

I quoted a comment

Where's my 50 thumbs..?

[omarika96]

@Thievingnoob you need to quote a funny comment for that to work

[Pokarot]

I will never buy call of duty, or one of its spinoffs after having to suffer through that terrible ad over and over.

[GBMorris]

@Pokarot Adblock is sweet.

[SuspenseSmith]

So who's side is everyone on?

[judo9971]

0:55 hey the background, it's my country

[Tiosh]

Fire was the original iPad. And yet Tablet PC's existed before the iPad.

[rahagbab]

Somebody please invent a wisdom ring.

[SuspenseSmith]

So whose side are you on? The smart side or the one that buys a new iPhone every three months?

[DtTV94]

I had planned on getting some work done, then I started watching college humor...

[xroguepassionx]

So you're basically saying... Gorillas are going to rule the Earth?

[SSurashu]

I can't get out of CollegeHumor's grasp. >_> I should be working now dammit. *clicks another CH video*

[bigdaddylongjhon]

the sound that youtube makes when you thumbs up a comment is getting annoying...

[camcool202]

@bigdaddylongjhon I see what you did there! Almost god me...

[ToolboxMachinima]

I believe they mean "Adapters" not "Adopters"

[themutantgerbil]

@ToolboxMachinima actually if they were adapting they would be melding into there environment so to speak, adopting means they are taking on a new concepts such as a better way to hunt, communicate, entertain yourself, and overthrow your evil monkey overlords....

[xXMattyHazeXx]

My ad was about the car where the guy says its a crash test genius. I don think its a genius if it got in a car crash...

[xicyhailx]

[ThingsInc]

[maribakumon]

@meuberepic fuck blue and green what the hell happened to yellow????

[sciencoking]

[AK47VSM162010]

@meuberepic Man We Should Sue Youtube!

[airgilbert]

[shongrocks1622]

@meuberepic ah.. best trick so far..

[AniCygnus]

@shongrocks1622 I think He means the Video Like Button :/

[Deadmanhedgehog]

@meuberepic Shut up. The color of the button doesn't freakin matter.

[willzyx1980]

Planned obsolescence? Really? Hasn't that moonbat hippie conspiracy theory bullshit died yet?

[SakataRendeva]

@willzyx1980 Well, a certain close peg company was brought to court after the minutes of a meeting of their bigwigs finalised the decision to make clothes pegs that would not last as long, as one set tended to last 20 years before then. So it's not completely untrue :L

[willzyx1980]

@SakataRendeva Every product could be made to last longer. They aren't, because it's more cost effective, given consumers' values, to replace them after shorter intervals. But that's not what the theory of planned obsolescence is; that theory is that companies reduce product durability, against the wishes of consumers, in order to force them to buy more. The reason the theory is BS is because it ignores the role of competition: if you don't give ppl what they want, sb else will.

[c4662]

The human race in a nutshell

[NagaCraze]

Is he voiced by Pat? the guy on the right

[ZBlayde]

Guy on the left has a point. Guy on the right is the same guy who bought Beta Max, HD DVDs, Laser Discs, and Virtual Boy.

[PsychoGirl300]

That's why I won't buy the new 3DS.

[asdfcookieguy]

[Animeflagger143]

[Demy1000]

It's always the basic tools that are the best.

[aa3gunner]

[xingfenzhen]

@aa3gunner

[aa3gunner]

[MrWiskytangofoxtrot]

Thumbs up if  after watching this you got yourself a bone in preparation for the Planet of the Apes

[Uaxis]

@MrWiskytangofoxtrot Shotguns are pretty reliable too.

[HolyCow3000]

i thought abicus was Chinese...

[puffpuffdragon]

@HolyCow3000 Now you know better!

[arizonabrewerton]

@HolyCow3000 the one they showed was chinese, they need to wiki before they fail.

[HolyCow3000]

@arizonabrewerton lawl

[philessexuk]

@HolyCow3000 actually Mesopotamia - Sumerian and Babylonia had it first ^^ Chinese didn't have it until around the 2nd century BCE

[philessexuk]

@philessexuk Mesopotamia had it around 2700 BCE

[xingfenzhen]

@philessexuk

Actually the version represented in the video is the indeed the Chinese abacus. (rod and bread system and 2 twos of separated beads on top)Which is able to do square root, cube root and matrix calculations in both decimal and Hex numerical systems. While Mesopotamian, Greek and Roman ones are far more limited.(For Greek and Roman in Dec and for Mesopotamian in Hex) Though it's more because of Chinese counting rod algebra advances rather than mechanics itself.

[philessexuk]

@xingfenzhen actually if you read the original comment made by holycow you will see they have said the abacus in general was Chinese, the one in the video maybe Chinese, but it still doesnt change the fact that they copied it from previous civilisations and have just improved on the design.

[HolyCow3000]

:O

[LPSwimmer2011]

@HolyCow3000 I'll bet you thought it was spelt "abicus", too.

[GeoPhe42]

@HolyCow3000 its actually greek i think... damn greeks, they made maths a universal school subject :S dammit

ps no offence to greece and its community

[RaymondLovesFire]

@HolyCow3000 it is.

[Rawbdog]

@HolyCow3000 Abacus, you idiot.

[999basille]

@HolyCow3000 nah its not cheap and its not made of plastic so it cant be chinese

[HolyCow3000]

@999basille lawl

[Dzubur93]

@HolyCow3000 actually, it is not even egyptian, its mesopotamian

[mynamemaycontainAtoZ]

@HolyCow3000 it is

[gabboet]

@HolyCow3000 .Egyptians and Chinese have used the abacus for centuries. No idea about the abicus. Note: English is not my mother tongue.

[HolyCow3000]

meh

[honeydew455]

@HolyCow3000 it is

[Cheesycat501]

@HolyCow3000 Don't we all

[MarcLira66]

@HolyCow3000 Nop; it is actually mesopotamian; the egyptians where its first to adopt its wide use. The word Abacus is actually a greek.

[joballer1]

adopters or adapters?

[1XxXJNTXxX1]

So...this says that sometime in the near future, we will have advanced so much, that we will de-volve?

[TheClaybones]

@1XxXJNTXxX1 No I think the gorillas take over the world

[1XxXJNTXxX1]

@TheClaybones HURRAY FOR PLANET OF THE APES!

[Vortex289]

@1XxXJNTXxX1 No, this says that people will get sick of playing computer games and start punching gorillas.
