No, and your extreme ignorance is representative of the idiots who are always running their mouths online, who don’t actually know shit. And even when you give them a clue, they continue on, being ignorant puss bags who never learn a goddamn thing. I don’t want you to feel singled out, and there is plenty of stupid to go round. With the plethora of idiocy abounding of late, it’s impossible to even describe the level of ignorance infecting the “reasonable” forums, making the Pit seem like **the calm rational center of the Doper Universe**. Ironic. And quite amusing. Each time I start to post about it, another dumb post shows up, it’s a never ending circle jerk of self perpetuating stupid, there is no stopping it. I’m so sick of THAT global warming. The following quotes are from multiple other threads, follow the links to see where. This first one was really hard to resist responding to, because it is SO FUCKING STUPID it is beyond words. > [@Is the doom and gloom environmental movement another expression of moral/religious anxiety?](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/is-the-doom-and-gloom-environmental-movement-another-expression-of-moral-religious-anxiety/727827/70): > > Here you go: [Global Warming for Kids.](http://www.explainthatstuff.com/globalwarmingforkids.html) Written by a guy name Chris Woodford, who doesn’t appear to directly benefit, financially, from AGW. This fuckhead in the link actually describes global warming as a big fire in the woodshed. You have to read it to fully appreciate the idiocy he is spreading. > [@Credulous "experts" on global warming](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/credulous-experts-on-global-warming/729477/71): > > Look, guy, at this point climate change deniers are the equivalent of Flat Earth believers.

It’s hard to mock somebody who uses the name “Really a dumb as fuck shithead”, so it’s all good. > [@Credulous "experts" on global warming](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/credulous-experts-on-global-warming/729477/73): > > Really? I consider the “man-made CO2 is evil” zealots to be the equivalent of Flat Earthers. They KNOW that global warming/climate change is mankind’s fault but they just can’t prove it. Sure they can. It’s like [building a big fire in a timber shed.](http://www.explainthatstuff.com/globalwarmingforkids.html) > [@trust vs science (yet another global warming catfight)](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/trust-vs-science-yet-another-global-warming-catfight/729303/31): > > Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence. Yes they do. So when the IPCC claims Indias water supply will be gone by 2035, maybe sooner, because the glaciers will be gone, they need really good evidence. Anyone who questions such a wild claim doesn’t need any evidence, since such an extraordinary claim would need extraordinary evidence to support it. Instead, there was actually NO evidence at all, but that didn’t stop idiots from repeating it as fact for two years, before it was retracted. > [@trust vs science (yet another global warming catfight)](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/trust-vs-science-yet-another-global-warming-catfight/729303/31): > > No good their shouting “shill!”, saying “science wuz wrong before!”, yapping about Galileo - nope, they must show their facts (such as they are) and try to make a coherent case. No you fuckhead moron, it’s the person making a claim who has to show his work, lay out the evidence, and anyone who is involved in science already knows anything new will be attacked and challenged, that’s how science actually works. The person making a claim, especially an extraordinary claim, has to provide the extraordinary evidence, the person challenging the claim need only show the evidence is weak, wrong, or in the case of the IPCC, it doesn’t even exist. This wholesale effort to try and turn science upside down is the realm of hucksters, frauds, cons and some really poor climate science. I don’t have to provide any evidence at all to counter some idiots claim. Like this one from [Chris Woodford](http://www.explainthatstuff.com/globalwarmingforkids.html), directed at children. > [@](#): > > **What is global warming?** > > Imagine you live in a timber shack in Alaska. It’s chilly up there, so you build yourself a huge log fire and pile on all the wood you can find. To start with, the fire seems a great idea—especially since it’s so cold outside. The shack warms up slowly, but predictably, and it’s soon pretty cosy. Since the shack is much warmer than the atmosphere and ground that surround it, it loses heat quite quickly. If the fire supplies heat at the same rate as the shack loses it, the shack stays at roughly the same temperature. But if you make the fire too big, the shack will get hotter… and hotter… and hotter. Before long, you’ll start feeling uncomfortable. You might wish you’d never made the fire so big in the first place. But once it’s burning, there’s nothing you can do to stop it. The shack will keep getting hotter long after you stop piling wood on the fire. > > Global warming is working a bit like this. No you dumb as fuck idiot. Are there no editors? Did you not run this by anyone before publishing? Seriously. What the fuck? If you have to use a goddamn timber shack, at least make the fire the constant, and add more insulation to the shack, so that the same amount of heat causes the interior of the shack to get warmer. That would be closer to the CO2 greenhouse theory. Where the fuck do these people come from? I saw that from the link by Lightnin’ > [@Is the doom and gloom environmental movement another expression of moral/religious anxiety?](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/is-the-doom-and-gloom-environmental-movement-another-expression-of-moral-religious-anxiety/727827/70): > > Here you go: [Global Warming for Kids.](http://www.explainthatstuff.com/globalwarmingforkids.html) Written by a guy name Chris Woodford, who doesn’t appear to directly benefit, financially, from AGW. Please do not tell these dumb fucks I pitted them. They might show up in this topic, and that would suck so bad. --- _[View the full topic](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/im-sick-of-this-global-warming/666440)._
