YOU THINK THAT GRAMMAR IS A MOTHERFUCKING GAME!?

[Frederico Sousa]

that's not right. Even the pope supports evolutionism, and says that the bible is not litteral. only obscure religious fanatics tink that (and that is 40% of americans, talk about being a monkey..)

[joe bob]

Maybe we are the aliens and we came out here and lost all of our technology o.o

[SwissGuard100]

Not 'tone' as in tone of voice. 'Tone' can also refer to the way a sentence is phrased. Was it phrased in such a way that gave the impression I agreed with you? No. You were obviously refering to me as a troll, but I sarcastically feigned misunderstanding so that in context your own comment would refer to you. Come on, I didn't go to this video to give you middle school English lessons.

[backflipmania1]

we have a common ancestor with monkeys, we were never monkeys please study evolution if you are gonna promote it

[Shane Bradley]

A dong? hey I have one of those! Oh... a D.O.N.G never mind. :P

[rihardspeters]

Well, some of us, including you, still are.

[InStInCs1009]

What if other life exists on other planets, but their in the same predicament that we are in that they are too far gone from the technology required and cannot communicate?

[mercanaries3]

What fucking tone? WHAT FUCKING TONE.

People read comments as talking normally...you can't make the words sound sarcastic unless it becomes obvious.

[SwissGuard100]

Heh. Apparently, you somehow failed to detect the overwhelming tones of sarcasm in my last post. Oh, well. Given the quality of your earlier posts, I shouldn't have been expecting that much anyway.
