odiousgambit Member since: Oct 28, 2012 Threads: 154 Posts: 5114 | I'm suspicious of these claims about farting. 1] I think these sounds would be hard for the mic to pick up, unless the person did it on purpose 2] the interpretation that a woman is reacting to the fart, when it could be something else were there no such sound, so this seems to be a likely prompt for the mischievous 3] there is this assertion that it's been validated that it really happened, but you'd have to be a fool not to realize it could be faked. In some versions, the sound is made louder, I've noticed note I waited to say this till someone I don't like at all had this be claimed to happen to them. In these cases, without the sound, you'd assume the woman reacts to the comment I'm Still Standing, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah [it's an old guy chant for me] |

Per capita emissions, 2021. China doesn’t make the top 15. The mind hungers for that on which it feeds. |

You also have to remember that still a great majority of the Chinese live remote and away from lots of modern technology. At my age a Life In Prison sentence is not much of a detrrent. |

According to data from the U.S. Energy Information Administration, Texas led all states in overall renewable energy production, accounting for over 14% of the country's totals¹. In the first quarter of 2022, Texas produced nearly a quarter of the nation's wind energy¹. On the other hand, California, which is the nation's leader in both utility-scale solar and geothermal, ranked third in overall production¹. Here are the most recent figures for total renewable energy production (in millions of megawatt-hours): 1. Texas: 33.95 2. Washington: 25.01 3. California: 19.52¹ It's worth noting that while Texas leads in wind energy, California is known for its solar energy production²³. So, while Texas produces more renewable energy overall, the type of renewable energy each state specializes in varies.

Nice photoshop. But the fake news that the polar bears are in trouble was debunked years ago, you aren't seriously that far behind the times are you? "but if you make yourselves sheep, the wolves will eat you." Benjamin Franklin |
