CLOWNS IN SPAAAAAAACE !!!!

As much as I love space exploration and admire the few who get to participate, at some point, you have to draw the line.



Guy Laliberte, the founder of Cirque du Soleil, has acquired accommodations aboard the International Space Station. I've read a news article or two online about this and, to me, it's a little ridiculous.This man, who has made a living out of being a clown, gets to go to space while being paid $35 million. He claims to plan to use it to "spread the word" about the world's shortage of clean water. Why doesn't he use it to actually CLEAN some water. It's kind of insulting enough to flaunt about getting a free ride to the space station amongst astronauts who have been training for years to go into space, but you're being paid and you're not even officially using the money for good. All that being said, Guy Laliberte is NOT the Dick of the Day...

                                                                    IT'S NASA !!!




Dear NASA, where do you get off spending $79 MILLION to bomb the moon when we are in the biggest financial crisis since the great depression !?!?!? Not only that, but it wasn't even that big of a show. When the American people pay that kind of money out of their already dwindling or disappearing paychecks, I expect at least half the moon to be GONE. Like I said, I am all for space exploration and discovery, but when it's costing us this much money, it's time to give it a break. I hope they find the ice that they're looking for so they can bring it back and make an ice rink out of it. We will sell tickets to skate on it so we can get our $79 million back. Or another idea would be to let Nike buy advertising space on the moon so they'll make more money. That way they can pay the children that they hire from third-world countries a little better. A huge Nike Swoosh on the moon could be the thing that solves world hunger...maybe.

 
Not only is NASA to be put to shame this week, check out the conduct of one of their employees. While participating in the LCROSS mission, one of the NASA guys pretty much took a giant dump on this his fellow employee's confidence by refusing to high-five him. I mean, you just bombed the moon, can you ignore the fact that you're a heartless jerk for one second and high five the guy ? You can see this affront on common courtesy about 5 min into this vid http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mVyEOFfv_lo

Thanks for reading, see you next week !!!

Welcome


Ok so, I'd like to welcome you all the the first ever PAIDOC blog. PAIDOC, in case you didn't already know, stands for "People Against Ignorant Dicks Owning Computers" and we are exactly what our title suggests. I came up with the idea for this organization when I realized that I am fed up with all the people I see on the internet that are just, to put it simply, dicks. What is the point of this blog you may ask. Our mission is simple, to seek out and expose those who insist on conducting themselves in a dickish manor via the internet. We all know who I'm talking about. Whether it be a famous politician or celebrity, or the little guy who replied to your comment on YouTube saying that Key Board Cat is the best vid ever and they'll stab you in the face if you say that it sucks, we'll be there to expose them. When I say that we are an organization, I mean that we are all in this together. Sure, I am only one person, but luckily, I have social networking on my side ;) I ask all of you to join this fight. You can comment on our blog right here or you can follow us on Twitter at twitter.com/PAIDOC and send us links that you think deserve to be the subject of our "Dick of the Day" blog posts. Any and all opinions are welcome. Oh, and sorry ladies, just because you are female, it doesn't disqualify you from being a dick. We would create another organization exclusively for this, but sadly, we don't have that kind of time....
