uh.... thats when people turn their lights on? Isn't the whole point to turn your lights off when you would normally have them on?

I was planning on finally figuring out how many consoles I need to turn on to trip my breaker. This Earth Hour thing is just a blowhard manuever.

Fat fucking chance I'm gonna get the rest of the house to turn their lights off. I'm just not going to bother.

Fuck the world, seriously, I'm only gonna live for another 50 years if I'm lucky. I'm not planning on having any kids and basically, fuck you all. I only give a shit about myself. It's not like the world is gonna end in my lifetime. Unless a freak catastrophe occurs of course.

I'm doing it. Do you have any idea how much energy it saves just for that 1 hour. It's insane. It's a good thing to do. Thats not such a good attitude Niode. We're destroying the planet that's not ours to destroy. We should at least try for a hour to sustain it's life.

All of downtown LA and the rest of the city is doing it. Even street lights. There will be a satellite image to show how dark the planet gets.
