While we’re at it, let’s sign a petition to ban [Dihydrogen Monoxide](http://www.dhmo.org/facts.html). ---

**WPA Guy** - I don’t know where you got an internet, but you’re posting to the year 2014. I don’t think there even is a WPA anymore. And as for Eleanor discovering the ‘coloreds,’ you’d better sit down. You see, in this far distant future the president himself… ---

> [@Knowed\_Out](#): > > While we’re at it, let’s sign a petition to ban [Dihydrogen Monoxide](http://www.dhmo.org/facts.html). My hero Michele Bachman can lead us to this. She has already research on carbon dioxide: “Carbon dioxide is portrayed as harmful. But there isn’t even one study that can be produced that shows that carbon dioxide is a harmful gas," on the House floor in April, 2009. She can get the truth out about the Dihydrogen Monoxide! ---

My husband was a thespian before we met. He still is a homo sapien, and I have learned to accept that. He accepted that I was nulliparous before we met, and now I am happily multigravida. It’s true love. ---

Homo Sapiens are so gross and unnatural. When homo sapiens conjugate they get faxes all over their pens. Hitler was right when he wanted to excommunicate all the home spaniens from the rind land. I hate them so much!1 Every movie out of hollywood has scenes with homo sapiens in it and I vomit every time i see them. Use your brian sheople and open your eyes! The liberal media is making homo sapienism normal.
