You jest, but there was a very good long term study that found it actually rains more on weekends. Turns out it’s from the particulate pollution generated during the week. I’m not kidding.
Fish gotta swim
Birds gotta fly
Trolls gotta troll
They don’t even know why.
How can the world be warming, when there was this one guy who said “it’s totally cold here, right now?”
Explain that one, science!
Just talked to a friend in Chicago, brutal global warming came early this year.
Superior already has ice on it, beating the record from last year by 10 days.
Arctic sea ice also already at highest levels measured in the last 10 years. Damn you global warming, with your ability to make it colder than fuck, earlier than ever.
I seriously wish somebody had predicted this back in 2006, so we could all go “You see? We told you global warming was going to destroy the world.”
Fucking global warming.

Nothing has changed in 15 months except at this point a moderator simply comes in here to troll-bash the asshole.
Trolling is against the rules of this board. So is troll-accusations, I believe. So just shut down this thread - it should have been aborted a long time ago - and start enforcing the rules, please. It’s old and boring just like the poster in question.
Not in the Pit.
As far as trolling goes, this particular case is so blatant that I personally would be in favor of shutting it down, but historically we’ve allowed some degree of trolling in the Pit. I will, however, continue to remind people that this assclown is nothing but a troll and responding to him substantively serves no purpose.
Weather pattern has turned upside down
The jet stream pattern has effectively reversed typical seasonal norms at this point, with Alaska seeing considerably milder conditions than many parts of the lower 48 states.
Consider this: As of 10:30 a.m. ET, it was already warmer in Barrow, Alaska, where the sun had not yet inched above the horizon, than it was in Denver, Colorado.
That’s right, it was 21F in Barrow, while Denver was just inching up above -1F, from the low of -8F. Barrow enjoyed a sultry 32F, while Denver never reached above 17 all day. In November!!
Of course it was November 9 1950, when Barrow was much warmer than Denver.
But goddamn, according to the idiot media this shit has never happened in the history of mankind. OH NOES!!
Like Nov 10 1950, when Barrow was MUCH WARMER THAN CHICAGOES!! OMG!!
Of course if you actually run a scientific story, explaining how weather works, how it’s not unusual, then you don’t frighten or panic anyone, and they might go do something, instead of being glued to the TV, waiting for the next shoe to drop, and fretting and shit.
Shivering in ignorance, that is spread by fuckheads who read this stupid shit and repeat it as gospel.
In case somebody somehow missed it, I took the exact story from the Mashable story, but used Nov 9 1950, and Nov 10 1950, with links to the actual data, to show the exact same shit has happened before.
Not that facts will make any difference. Once a true believer gets some truthiness in their head, facts are the last thing that will dispel the ignorance.
G’night everybody! Drive safe!
.
Of course some will blame the media, but they get this stupid shit from actual scientists, they don’t just make it up/
Role reversal: Why it's warm in Alaska but frigid in most of the U.S. right now | Mashable
If you didn’t know this shit happens, you might think something unusual is happening. As they say “Consider this: As of 10:30 a.m. ET, it was already warmer in Barrow, Alaska, where the sun had not yet inched above the horizon, than it was in Denver, Colorado.”
Consider this, the exact same thing has happened before, long before any global warming nonsense.
That’s right, it was 21F in Barrow, while Denver was just inching up above -1F, from the low of -8F. Barrow enjoyed a sultry 32F, while Denver never reached above 17 all day. In November!!
Of course it was November 9 1950, when Barrow was much warmer than Denver.
But goddamn, according to the idiot media this shit has never happened in the history of mankind. OH NOES!!
Like Nov 10 1950, when Barrow was MUCH WARMER THAN CHICAGOES!! OMG!!
So when they report "a hypothesis that holds that as the Arctic warms disproportionally fast compared to lower latitudes, the jet stream is more prone to high amplitude waves, and blocking patterns like the one taking place now. Such patterns often lead to extreme weather events, from heat waves to cold snaps. ", it’s like they somehow think extreme weather has never happened before.
It’s fucking ignorance on steroids.
Anyone with grasp of science would conclude that global warming has been happening since before 1950. Which it has, it is just accelrating in the last twenty years. But denialists gotta deny, so every cold snap is somewhow supposed to refute global warming. Sometimes ignorance fights back.
You seem to be missing the gist of the articles argument, which is that the drastic reduction in arctic sea ice, along with a resulting early heavy snowfall in Siberia, is causing the weather. In essence, that global warming is CAUSING Barrow to be warm, and Denver to be cold. Of course in 1950 the sea ice was vastly larger (maybe, but that’s the official story)
Actually, according to the data, it has almost stopped in the last two decades.
Again, you seem to be missing the point of the entire thread. Global Warming is CAUSING the cold.
Reality always ends up kicking belief in the teeth.
Nuh uh.
My new sig line.
Of course it does. Why wouldn’t it?
It’s as if some junior high school kid, having been taught that “heat rises,” sees the convection currents in a boiling beaker of water – where columns of hot water descend as well as rise – and decries everything he’s been taught as a conspiracy.
In light of the fact that you have accused people multiple times in this forum of trolling, and are now trying to argue that Colibri is trolling by doing the same thing to you, I am pretty sure your ATMB thread is trolling.
Now watch as nothing happens to me for calling you a troll.
Are you finally at that point, FXM?
Are you finally there?
I’ve been trying to feed you for months. Keep your ego running. Give you the feedback you so desperately crave. And I’m far from the only one.
But…maybe that’s not enough for you. Maybe you’re finally ready to take the last step and end it all in a blaze of self-righteous glory.
Death by Mod.
I dunno. I don’t think so. I reckon you’ll try to push all the way to the precipice and then jump back at the very last instant.
But that kind of thrill-seeking behavior usually ends in tragedy. You’ll step off the edge pretty soon, my friend. You’ll have yourself banned. And you’ll try to tell yourself it was worth it, because your awesomeness could not be sustained by such a horrible community as this. You’ll congratulate yourself for proving that the 'Dope could not handle the truth. You’ll try to reassure yourself that you’re too good for this place.
But deep down, you’ll always know that you are just another sad internet troll. And ultimately a mediocre one at that.
Damn. I’m getting all misty. C’mere, pal, bring it in for a hug.
