DaBlade, no no, this stuff is as green as it gets. The majority primary ingredient to all these new technologies is Marijuana, Reefer, Weed, Wacky Tabaccy, Thai Stick Mania, Colombian Red, California Sensimelian, obama S.

Ed, the government is forced to spend money. If they don't spend money, they are tortured, whipped, and waterboarded, and their pron watching privileges are suspended for 5 to 10 minutes.
A magnificent piece of satire on the use of JARGON instead of ENGLISH in public communication. All specialized fields develop a from of JARGON which only members of the group directly involved can understand. I've often suspected that many "professors" and self-styled "experts" delight in using this specialized form of communication in order to make themselves appear smarter than they really are –– both to colleagues AND the general public.
To the average person stuff of this ilk sounds like GOBBLEDYGOOK. Therefore only one of two conclusions are apt to be drawn by observers outside the "in" group:
A) This guy is ether a FAKER or a RAVING MANIAC. Who does he think he's KIDDING? Not I!
B) GEE! He must be incredibly intelligent! Sure make ME feel stupid. I guess I have no choice but to TRUST his obviously SUPERIOR KNOWLEDGE, and go along with what he's saying –– whatever that may be, because I sure as hell can't figure it out, but I'd hate for anyone to know how dumb and ignorant I really am.
"A," of course, is closer to the truth –– at least in THIS case ;-) –– but then "A" is the type –– probably a "redneck," or an "enword" –– who would miss anything of REAL significance that challenged his assumptions and painfully limited worldview no matter what. So society loses in either case.
I guess there will always be contemporary versions of the old Snake Oil Salesman with a fast line of patter hawking his worthless wares from the back of a metaphorical Conestoga Wagon –– or WORSE –– new emanations of The Pied Piper of Hamlin who will con you into giving up your possessions while letting your children desert you and everything you've worked for and stood for with YOUR blessing.
Beware of JARGONEERS who invent whole new vocabularies to describe and categorize very OLD phenomena. Their aim is never to ENLIGHTEN but only to FLUMMOX you into letting THEM ruin your life.
I got his nonreciprocal dingle arm right here, Kid.....
ReplyDeleteFredd, I sent mine to obama. God knows what he's doing with it right now.

DeleteWell, I for one wonder what she said.
DeleteEd, It was something about a girdle spring with hot pink snaps.....
DeleteNo, not the hot pink snaps. Egads!
DeleteCube, what is your preference on the snaps? :)
DeleteHHHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!! sshhh!!
DeleteFYI, it appears that diagram is one of a General Motors turbo-hydromatic 350 automatic transmission.
ReplyDeleteI am pretty sure about that, and I am pretty darn sure it has no nonreciprocal dingle arms and no girdle springs.
Fredd, as an used to be ex-expert, that is a Turbo 400. IMHO.
DeleteYou clearly weren't listening....
Deleteand it will only cost you taxpayers $750,000,000 !--this parody on progressive speak -brought a smile - thank you --

Carol-CS, I think he left off about 6 zeros. But that's barry for you. Never proclaimed to be good at math. Let alone his ABC's.
DeleteThis sounds legit. But is it "green"? I don't see a windmill or solar panel anywhere on that diagram! Just another rightwing climate destroyer!

DeleteAnd don't forget Multiplex demodulators matter too.
DeleteAnd don't forget Multiplex demodulators matter too.
DeleteSorry, didn't mean to hiccup.
DeleteCube, I assumed the multiplexing demodulators were a given. Along with the windavelocitynewbuns. I should have mentioned it.
DeleteWhat? No credit...LOL
ReplyDeleteIMP, I have updated the post and named you as The Man. A Thousand Pardons.
DeleteNow I can sleep! And I'll take that to the bank tomorrow. 2,000 thumbs up.
DeleteMoney line: It's not cheap but I'm sure the government will buy it..

FT, No, this was pure satirical humor.
DeleteOh my - the government has already bought it! Good post.
ReplyDeleteBaysider, the government has already bought anything and everything that makes no sense at all and they're looking for more. Thanks :)
