Join me.
I did, enthusiastically!
What does it look like when enviro-weenies turn the lights off?
North Korea.
Earth Hour?
Let me guess: something along the lines of having an hour long moment of silence in the dark for our poor abused planet, right?
Sounds stupid to me.
No, I’m not gonna research the details. Because I don’t care. The fact that it has “Earth” in the title tells me all I need to know. It’s become a sort of anti-buzzword to me. Just like “Green”. When someone starts throwing those two words around I immediately think to myself “OK, this is obviously a load of horse hockey.”

My idiot neighbor did this. I put my lights on. Yeah, sit in the dark for an hour, that’ll save the planet. Don’t they do that every night in Korea? Where’s the saving?
My daughter wanted to do this, so we went along with it. She turned off all the lights for an hour, then when she went to bed she left her light on all night.
Well I’m not going to do anything different than normal, but running around and turning on every light just because is a little dumb.
I don’t see the big deal with this. Life will go on.
Damn. I don’t follow stupidity so I didn’t know this was coming up. I’d have gone out in front and left all the cars idling in the driveway.
Lights are on for sure...I just wish I had the cajones to burn a tire too...
