Funny Pic

[Abdula]

Yeah wrong thread but I'll just respond to this one post. You missed my point with the references. My point was exactly that Tom Cruise and Wesley Snipes do not represent their particular ethnicity at all. No one looks at them and thinks that every white guy is a crazy scientologist or that every black guy is going to go to jail for not paying taxes. Jackie Chan plays a role, that is it. Speaking of commercials, what about Chuck Norris' WoW commercials, or Mr T. That is Chan's character, it is what he is known for and it is what he has made a career doing.


Again my point was that you seem rather oblivious to the whole race issue and what sets people off which is the very reason Y says you're a racist but hey another thread another day.

This is the funny pic thread, and I don't even remember the last funny pic posted after all that rambling (that was anything but funny). Get back to the topic, dudes.

My post on reddit which had SIX... count em.... SIX upvotes.

"I laughed really hard at first. For the first 10+ loops. Then I started to realize what a sick fuck I am and tried to repent by feeling enough empathy to stop my incessant chuckling.

Now I just feel like I ruined a perfectly good high."


Thats seriously the funniest gif I've seen in a long time tho. It had me laughing stupid for a good minute.


My name on Reddit is 'Probasaur' which is the ID I've gone by for a few years now.... who could I go about getting my name changed to just 'Kage' or if I can't do that cause some guy from 10 years ago has an account with that name, who can I talk to bout changing it to Probasaur??


....holy shit. I said 10 yrs just as a random big number and its seriously been almost 10 yrs since I joined this place. hard to believe we been coming here for even 5+ years.

My cousin's returning to the States this year for Black Friday for some deals and to watch humanity crumble; last year some woman used her pepper spray in a crowd of people for an XBOX or PS3 at a Best Buy (I think).

[Assertn]

Not sure if serious, but the actual reason, regardless, is because it's the start of the year where most retail stores become profitable (aka get out of the red and into the black).

[Animeniax]

Here comes ds to call you a racist. Wait for it...


My cousin's returning to the States this year for Black Friday for some deals and to watch humanity crumble; last year some woman used her pepper spray in a crowd of people for an XBOX or PS3 at a Best Buy (I think). I'm always up for a good deal but the crowds and stress aren't worth it to me. But going shopping on Black Friday is an experience in itself. We should hold a contest to guess how many acts of violence occur this BF.


Not sure if serious, but the actual reason, regardless, is because it's the start of the year where most retail stores become profitable (aka get out of the red and into the black).Nah, not being serious, though I didn't know the real reason either. Makes sense now that you've mentioned it.

[TwisT]

Hehe yea i didn't know either. Someone said years ago that the reason it was called Black Friday was because there was so many people getting hurt or even killed during the shopping. I remember reading about someone getting trampled to death and many injured that BF that was then, so i just assumed that was it and never gave it a second thought. But your reason is much more believable.

[Animeniax]

Thing is, even before the advent of BF, companies did great during the holiday shopping season leading up to Christmas. With all the deals on BF through cyber-Monday now, they're making money on volume, but less money than they could on markup.

I make it a point to never pay full retail price for anything but I also prefer stress-free shopping experiencing. Most people at Costco are bad enough, and even then I've left quickly because I was too disgusted with their behaviour and because I get anxiety from overcrowded places.

I don't know about all Europeans, but at least we Nordics are safe since I don't see any cross flags there.

[shinta|hikari]

That was about the flags? I thought it was all about the gay colours!!!

[Kraco]

I don't know what it's about. I don't even know what a pansexual is (is it something that considers all sexuality, including for example bestiality, ok?). But Ryll started to talk about Americans and Europeans, so I thought to play along. Lots of European nations have striped flags, so I guessed that's where Ryll came up with Europeans.

[Death BOO Z]

pansexsualism is being attracted to all manners of gender, not just male\female (as in bi-sexsualism). mostly, it implies that one doesn't disdain from transgenders and intersex (both, or no genitals) partners.

there's also omniamorph, which means "loves everything", but I don't know how it differes.

Maybe it involves farm animals and household appliances.

He wasn't finished. :p

[Archangel]

He's not holding the chalk as if he's going to write anything else down, he's using it to point.

[Abdula]

True, and what would he have done anyway. Put 2x18 in parentheses and add the +1 after the fact.

I had a professor who once made a simple mistake while solving an equation and he had a doctorate in math which he damn well deserved. It was a curious thing since his eventual solution to the equation he was working on was correct. Anyway I pointed out his mistake since I seem to have been the only one to notice it and he simply looked at the board and then corrected his mistake. As it turns out he had already solved the equation in his head, thus the correct solution, and was simply not paying attention to what he was writing. This though, is definitely not the same.

[Archangel]

You wouldn't need a parentheses.

[Abdula]

Yeah you would or at least I would because I would read 2x18+1 as 2x19 where as (2x18)+1 is completely different.

[Buffalobiian]

Yeah you would or at least I would because I would read 2x18+1 as 2x19 where as (2x18)+1 is completely different.

You always perform multiple/divide before you do plus/minus, just like you would do powers. It's how mathematics is done.

Brackets would only be needed if you wanted to change that order.

2x18+1 = 36+1 = 37

If you wanted to add 1 first, you must use brackets. ie 2x(18+1)

@Ark: He could be pointing, but he still wasn't finished.

[Abdula]

I know, but as I said I would read it as 2x19. It is a curious quirk of mine. If I were solving the problem in my head I wouldn't have the problem but reading it. I would just read it as 2x19. Ha, this is funny that is an idiosyncrasy I have not had to explain since elementary school, really. No worries Buff I can do math, my mother wanted me to be a math major after all but I had other ideas.

[Archangel]

How you read it is irrelevant. Math is absolute, there are no other valid interpretations other than the correct ones.

You wouldn't need a parentheses.


@Ark: He could be pointing, but he still wasn't finished.

You think he stopped mid equation to point something out?

. How you read it is always relevant just ask any dyslexic kid. As for math being absolute, that is quite an interesting statement. I had one friend who is a physicist who could argue that with you and another who fancies himself a philosopher who would but as I am neither of those two and you are you, I won't. Point conceded.

[Alhuin]

Is it possible that the image could have been 'shopped?

I'm inclined to believe that the equation isn't finished otherwise, since that's a relatively large mistake to have posted on a school website. Or rather, it's possible that the teacher could have made the mistake, but you'd think the photo would have been reviewed before going up.

[Kraco]

Isn't it a fricking university, according to the name? Why would he be writing elementary school mathematics on the chalkboard? Obviously he wasn't finished.

[Death BOO Z]

[Kraco]

It says: "What does 237 mean?". Maybe he's explaining the theory behind solving some equations. Who knows.

[Uchiha Barles]

There could be a number of things that make that picture not stupid or funny. First off, if he lifted the chalk from the board to write something else, he could have transiently changed his grip on the chalk as he moved it over to write something else. Or, maybe he does use that grip to write. I see no reason why he can't or why it's particularly difficult. I don't hold chalk or write on a vertical surface the same way I hold a pen or write sitting at a desk. Also, the area where the equal sign is looks as if something else was written there before he erased and replaced it with an equal sign, further suggesting that he's just not done.

Of course, he could have also fucked up, but it's not clear enough that he did for that pic to be funny.

[KrayZ33]

its probably written in a different numeral system, you can tell by the way the he "explains" the number 237 in decimal

2x10^2 + 3x10^1 + 7x10^0 = 237

edit: seems to be nonary - if you rewrite it into the decimal system it becomes

37 -> 3x9^1+7x9^0 = 34
2x18 -> 2x (1x9^1 + 8x9^0) = 34

[Death BOO Z]

as i humanities student, I'm going to need a better explanation...
a. if you're still using all ten digits, why not stick to the regular expressions?
b. how do you determinate how many times do you bring something up in powers? is it always going from the largest to the smallest?

[KrayZ33]

you are not using ten digits

base2 = 0, 1
base3 = 0,1,2
.....
base9 = 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8
base10 = 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9

so "9" in decimal becomes 10 in base 9

and "3" in decimal becomes 11 in base 2
while "4" in decimal becomes 100 in base 2
and "5" in decimal becomes 101 in base 2 <--- 1x2^2 + 0x2^1 + 1x2^0 = 5

[Ryllharu]

Isn't it a fricking university, according to the name? Why would he be writing elementary school mathematics on the chalkboard? Obviously he wasn't finished.
You would be appalled out how many stunningly dim people get to go to university in the US. Remedial math classes do in fact cover fractions (which I learned in 2nd grade math). These people go on to become elementary school teachers, English majors, and even Business majors.

I've heard stories of students (business majors) fervently arguing that an infinite slope can't possibly exist on a graph. I've heard boyfriends discuss their girlfriend's (Education major) remedial math classes struggling with word problems involving probability.

It doesn't end with math either. I've had classes with English and Philosophy majors who can't write a coherent five paragraph essay.

Somehow these people graduate and get decent jobs thanks to all the connections they made when they were partying every Thursday night through Monday night.

[Death BOO Z]

Oh, I think I get it now.
so '37' has to be in base 8 or above
base10 = 3* 10^1 + 7*10^0 = 37
base 9 = 3*9^1 + 7*9^0= 27 +7 = 34
base 8 = 3*8^1 +7*8^1 =24+7 = 31

and "2*18" can either be 36 (decimal) or "2*9^0" [still 2] * (1*9^1+8*9^0) [9+8=17), and 2*17 is also 34.
so 37 in base9 is twice as much as 18in base9.

headxplode. I gave up on advanced statistics major to pursue political sciences...

[KrayZ33]

and "2*18" can either be 36 (decimal) or "2*9^0" [still 2] * (1*9^1+8*9^0) [9+8=17), and 2*17 is also 34.
so 37 in base9 is twice as much as 18in base9.


not sure about what you mean with this part, unless you wanted to say "and 37 in base-9 is also actually 34 in decimal"

2x18 in base-9 is 34 if we translate it back to base-10 ----- (2*9^0 = 2) * ( 1*9^1+8*9^0 = 17) = 34
and 37 in base-9 is also 34 if we translate it back to base-10 ----- (3*9^1 + 7*9^0 = 34)

so 2x18=37, both written in base-9, is correct

if you said so, then nevermind :P

you normaly write down the numeral system you used somewhere if I'm not mistaken
so its actually not that .... weird.

it could look somewhat like this: 2x189=379

The Boy Scouts created this badge to commemorate allowing gay kids into their ranks. So I guess you earn this badge by being gay? Or is this like a scarlet letter A or Star of David?

[Archangel]

"Allowing" gay kids? What the fuck? How do 10 year old kids even know if they're gay or straight and how does that matter at all in joining the boy scouts?

[Animeniax]

Yeah, it's been a big deal in the US for the last year or so whether or not the Boy Scouts would allow openly gay kids to join them. They fought it for a while, then decided to allow them, hence this commemorative badge. And yes, 10 year old kids know if they are gay or straight, besides the fact that Boy Scouts can be between 10 and 17 years old.

Funny though that openly gay adults cannot join as leaders, as if they're all sexual deviants who can't control themselves around young boys or something.

[Archangel]

http://i.imgur.com/jM808MY.jpg

[Death BOO Z]

Apparently, there are kids as young as five who know about their gender issues ("the new normal" has an example of that). I also read sometimes in the papers about kids (ten years old) who's parents move around so that they can be in a 'friendly' school. can't understand how it can be so clear so early on, but that must be because I'm a privileged, CisGender, hetronormative male (and therefore, unqualified to make any comment).
I guess it works by either giving it to everyone who was in the scouts when the badge was issues (this is how some war marks are issued in Israel. everyone who was on duty, even if only at training for a desk job, gets one). another way is to give it to any kid who does something 'gay-friendly'. like lecturing to the fellows scouts about gay rights, volunteering in a gay shelter, helping a gay cross the road, making a campfire for the fags. the stuff that the kid in UP did.

Could be quite romantic except those two have no chemistry.

They are so obviously trying to sell the speaker Ani, I mean it is right there right, totally the focus of the photo. It is just like those Axe commercials. Supposedly if you wear that terrible crap women will be throwing themselves at you and if you buy those speakers you can be just like that guy or girl depending on your gender.

Microsoft has had negative press and hate for years and they continue to make poor decisions that don't help them with their fanbase. Luckily for them, the executive class will continue to support MS with business purchases because they could care less about situations like this.

If I had a say in it, I'd refuse to live in a brick-interior place:

1) Brick has shitty acoustics. I like my non-reflective, sound absorbing walls
2) Mortar slots leave room for insects and other creepy stuff to crawl in. I hate them.
3) Bricks drop particles all over the place. I hate that as well.
4) Bricks hurt when you run into them. Hate that the most.

[Abdula]

I know there is a good story behind number 4, you just have to tell us when you ran into a brick wall.

[Buffalobiian]

I've lost my footing and had to roughly use a brick wall for support once. No biggie, but it wasn't pleasant, and it did hurt.

At home I make contact with my walls quite frequently. Not too long ago I put my head through one. I stub my toe plenty of times in corridors at home, and (this is unrelated) I also don't mind using walls to help me turn corners.

So yeah, brick walls suck. I'm also sure the girl in that pic would rather be pushed against a plaster wall than a brick one.

I must say though, concrete is easier to clean than carpet.

[Abdula]

Um, are you just clumsy or just low awareness? "Not too long ago I put my head through one" Lol.

Yes I am quite sure she would prefer to not be pushed up against a brick wall. What the hell?

Hardwood floors are best. That or tiled. Linoleum is good too. I really don't know why people put carpet on their floors. Vacuuming is annoying.

Hardwood floors are nice, but I don't like the maintenance to go with it. Tiles are hardy, but get really cold in winter. Both suck to fall on. Carpet doesn't take spills well - and as for vacuuming, you clean the floors anyway, right?

I don't know if "the heart" has any significance besides not being "fun".

I always wondered why so few historians worked over that change USA suffered to the eyes of europe (and other countries) from hero/savior to dictatorial/imperialist mostly during and after Vietnam. Even more when that anlisis and controversy arised in the country to.Well you can always blame it on envy and hypocrisy and dont try to analize any further.

Also it took europe more than 1 milenia to get rid of religious obscurantism and give birth to the modern age just for ppl to have the chance and freedom of being ignorant and believing whatever crap they consume. I cant even begin to understand what could be reprehensible on that matter.

The change during/after Vietnam is exceedingly easy to explain: The USA lost the war. History has proven time after time that the loser of a war is always wrong and to blame for all the suffering. It doesn't even matter who started it all or for what reasons. No doubt that was bitter medicine for the Americans after all the wars they had won, especially WWII.

Europe has little real power now, after centuries of dominating the world, so it's understandable the former powers here aren't happy with the new powers muscling around instead. Many of the smaller countries of Europe, for their part, have often enough felt what it's like to be mere playthings for the big players, which is plenty of reason to feel unhappy when they see it happening elsewhere, as it reminds them of their own past. And then there's a country like Sweden who has never suffered anything but instead grown only richer selling weapons to the world in flames around it. Who knows why they bother to say anything, but I guess they feel so divine that they feel like everybody could benefit from their untouched wisdom.

America losing the war doesn't explain why views changed during the war (which actually resulted in the US pulling out). Media coverage of the violence was what drove American civilians to ask "Why are we even there? What are we doing?".

I... don't see anything particularly "wrong" with it. It's pretty funny. I'd use it on a computer that constantly gets seen by other people just to see their reactions.

What's the with windows? The white things look like blinds, but they also seem translucent.

[Animeniax]

I just noticed the print in the lower right corner. Evidently it's an ad for Tylenol.

You've never considered translucent blinds? They allow some light which is ideal for most of the day while also providing privacy. Also locking your bedroom door when you're fucking helps.

[Buffalobiian]

Nah, sunblock blinds all the way. It helps me sleep during the daytime and mornings. At night they also don't allow my cast shadow to be seen from the outside.

[Kraco]

It's a roller shade, I'd say. Just this summer I installed one on my balcony. A great thing.

[Ryllharu]

It depends on the room. I suspect that particular room also has blackout shades that come down as well.

I use privacy blinds in my kitchen, because I like the light throughout the day, but would rather not have people looking in at all hours. Blackout shades for the bedrooms.

[Animeniax]

How did this turn into a discussion about blinds, and in the funny pic thread no less. How about that creepy ass wallpaper with the little girl who is getting scarred for life? Isn't that how chicks get into porn?

[shinta|hikari]

Would a child seeing people have sex really get scarred for life? They would probably just think it is wrestling of some sort, and if they actually did understand what was happening, seeing it won't shock them as much since they have knowledge about it.

My cousin made me watch a porn flick when I was 5 or 6 and I am not scarred for life. I still remember the title though.

[Animeniax]

I guess it depends on who is having sex. If that's her mom and dad, she might be upset that daddy is hurting mommy and harbor anger towards him and then all men. If that's her mom and some random guy, she might think he's hurting her, or she might come to equate sex with power and try to use sex to get what she wants from men.

You're a guy right? I imagine it's not as bad for little boys as it is for girls to see sex at a young age. Look at the expression on the little girl's face and tell me she's not disturbed by what she's seeing.

[shinta|hikari]

Isn't that an act or shopped?

[Animeniax]

Yes probably staged but the message it conveys remains... Children don't understand sex, they see hurting and it's probably not good for their mental health.

[shinta|hikari]

I just mentioned that because you said to look at the face of the child and see that she is disturbed, but the picture is fake. You can't use something fake as proof of anything, even if it might be true.

[Kraco]

Yes probably staged but the message it conveys remains... Children don't understand sex, they see hurting and it's probably not good for their mental health.

You have been listening too much to bible thumpers' propaganda.

The only reason sex is hidden behind closed doors is because most cultures treat it as something shameful for anything but private eyes. And that's because it was a method to ensure greater fidelity since ancient times. If it scars any kid, it would be only scarring their cultural adherence. Honestly, like Shinta said, very young kids these days are already encountering even HC porn due to our almighty friend, the internets. (Though that being said, nobody can deny Shinta is mentally scarred, no, ruined!)

[Buffalobiian]

I'm reading it as Animeniax only giving painful love.

[Animeniax]

It's only faked in so far as it is staged, but it's staged as a realistic enactment of a child's reaction to such a scene. The advertisers made an image that resonates (or upsets) with the majority of potential buyers, not one that would perplex or confuse them. Imagine if the little girl had a sly look on her face, like she's thinking, "yeah, fuck her daddy, fuck her good!" That would be fake because in most real world situations that would not happen.

(Though that being said, nobody can deny Shinta is mentally scarred, no, ruined!)You're not giving enough credence to "cultural adherence." Girls get stoned to death by their own brothers in the Muslim world because of mere cultural adherence. It is a powerful deterrent to all sorts of bad behavior that we follow the norms and mores of the society we live in.

A child seeing porn is one thing... watching your mommy and/or daddy having sex is a bit different.

[shinta|hikari]

There is no proof that the fake picture is any realistic depiction of a child's actual reaction. You are saying it is a realistic reaction, but do you have any proof?

Even if you did, that does not contradict my point that the fake pic cannot be considered as evidence to what you are trying to say. Using fake evidence to support anything is just absurd. Don't do that. It reduces the believability of your argument.

[Buffalobiian]

I thought the obvious reaction a <10 year old kid would have to seeing their parents' lovemaking would be a confused look of "Mommy, what are you doing?"

A sly look would tell you she knows exactly what they're doing.

A shocked look would suggest some BDSM.

[Animeniax]

You all are arguing symantecs. The fact that it's an advertisement for headache medicine with the tag line "there are some questions that are a headache" suggests it's an extremely awkward situation, including the explanation to the little girl that will need to follow. Parents struggle with talking to their kids about sex because it's not an easy thing to deal with. I guess you all come from more liberal families where it was no big deal to hear your parents fucking. Tell me, as kids were any of you aroused by the thought of your parents fucking?

[shinta|hikari]

Semantics, and no.

All I am saying is that you should not try to prove a point using fake evidence, even if the point is actually true AND even if the fake evidence actually does occur in reality. Whether children are affected by sex to what degree is debatable, but this point is black and white.

[Buffalobiian]

Yes probably staged but the message it conveys remains... Children don't understand sex, they see hurting and it's probably not good for their mental health.


It's only faked in so far as it is staged, but it's staged as a realistic enactment of a child's reaction to such a scene.

Your point that we should view this seriously hinges on the assumptions that this is both realistic and painful. Your last few posts pointed how this is fake but real.

It's just a joke, like many other advertisements.


Tell me, as kids were any of you aroused by the thought of your parents fucking?

Implying that you only see children either masturbating or screaming when they see sex which I don't agree to at all.

That's fine but by that logic we shouldn't believe anything as portrayed in media unless we can verify it with actual experience and visual proof. By that logic you believe you are immortal because you aren't dead yet.


Your point that we should view this seriously hinges on the assumptions that this is both realistic and painful. Your last few posts pointed how this is fake but real.

It's just a joke, like many other advertisements.It's a reenactment of a real situation. See my comment above to shinta.


Implying that you only see children either masturbating or screaming when they see sex which I don't agree to at all.Children have a pretty limited scope of emotions that coincide with their limited life experience and exposure to situations. However, I was being facetious about being aroused at the thought/sight of you seeing your parents boning, since you all seem so much more sexually uninhibited.

[shinta|hikari]

That's fine but by that logic we shouldn't believe anything as portrayed in media unless we can verify it with actual experience and visual proof. By that logic you believe you are immortal because you aren't dead yet.

If by actual experience you mean anything proven scientifically then your analogy is fallacious. It has been proven that people die. It does not have to be personal experience, but it has been proven that humans die, and that we are humans, and the conclusion is obvious.

What you are saying is that children are traumatized by seeing sex (unproven unless you actually provide valid proof) by providing fake evidence.

In the end, all that is irrelevant. Please don't use fake evidence to argue your case, period.

EDIT: Just to be clear since it does not seem to be going through, I am not arguing about the effect of seeing sexual acts on children. I am simply saying that using fake evidence to argue a point is incorrect.

[Animeniax]

Some sciences aren't absolute, like the social sciences. I could site studies where children who are exposed to sex at an early age go on to lead traumatized lives, but that's all anecdotal evidence as such studies are subjective and hard to control.

Just because it has been shown that one of a set satisfies a given property, does not mean all of that set satisfy that property. Just because you've never met an immortal, doesn't mean they don't exist. So your argument that all humans die is fallacious and a result of your own anecdotal evidence.

[shinta|hikari]

You are completely missing my point, but that is expected.

I am not saying your point is wrong. Just don't try to prove it by using a staged or shopped image. There, simple enough?

Not missing, rather ignoring because it's irrelevant and doesn't apply. I don't need to use the image to support my point, I simply refer to it as it is the basis of this entire argument. An advertisement with no basis in reality to the product it is selling, outside of some avant garde commercial bs, wouldn't be put out there for mass consumption.

The ad clearly speaks to what most viewers would feel in that situation, that a child seeing her parents fucking would be shocked by it and have a lot of uncomfortable questions for the parents, hence the parents/boners would need headache medicine. Sorry, do I now have to prove they are somehow related/associated to the little girl or that it would be a headache for parents to answer such questions? From the way you guys talk, I imagine your parents took you aside and gave you "the birds and the bees" lessons during dinner chit chat.

[Animeniax]

I think the weight of the tube caused the weird looking trajectory. I'd say it's real.

[Abdula]

I would like to think that is fake because human beings cannot possibly be that stupid. The simplest pulley system in the world would have solved their problem. This was just really ill conceived. There are so many issues there. How did they think to aim that, not to mention really large tube tvs are heavy, I had a relatively large one that was about 300 pounds. The only way that stood a chance of clearing the second balcony is if both guys had jumped simultaneously. The biggest one for me is, if the tv is not light enough for you to simply toss it up there how was the person at the top supposed to catch it unless they have herculean strength and weigh about 500 lbs. As it is, the best possible outcome would have the tv making it to that second balcony on target and probably flattening the fool stupid enough to attempt to catch it. Or bozo could have caught it while leaning precariously over the balcony as he is and catching the tv would have overbalanced him just enough to give him a few seconds to think about his stupidity on the brief trip down.

Anyway Hercules' hands are visible the entire time and he seems to respond to the tv arcing towards him through the air and Ani is right. The tv spinning in the air, which it clearly does, would account for the change in trajectory. I'm curious about the kid in the background riding in circles.

Considering the TV is shown from multiple angles when it's flying, it wouldn't be badly edited at all, if it was edited in the first place. I, however, have infinite fate in mankind's infinite stupidness, so I'm very willing to believe people that stupid actually exist and, moreover, they thought that was a brilliant idea.

But why did they run all of a sudden?

It's like when you shoot an arrow into the sky, then run around trying to dodge it.

But they ran after the TV crashed. I would get it if they ran when it started falling down to avoid getting hit. Running after the fact is meaningless, unless they are running from responsibility, which makes it weird because they should have names and addresses and they left their accomplices on the 3rd floor.

Maybe if they were equipped with a reasonable amount of wits, but what they did with the TV already reveals they belong to the same stock as the fine gentlemen and ladies in "America's Dumbest Criminals".

I don't think it's a matter of accomplices, they are probably helping their friend move and thought up this ridiculous idea to save them some time and effort. I think they're running from adrenaline and just silliness. It's like when you set up fireworks or some other explosive (we did as kids), you'd light it and then run away all willy-nilly even though the danger wasn't that real.

Wait. Is the 3rd movie new? I only remember death + rebirth.

I really don't get what deal the anime community has with evangelion. sure, it was a good series and ground-breaking in many ways, but why do they keep making it again and again? aren't they tired of it?
