Had it been here or in Mexico or something, I would have spouted off about how I hate filthy humans. Somehow it seems acceptable over there.
-
Cause they are white.
-
Note to self: move to wintery location and rig the power system.
"What? The power is out AGAIN? What are the odds?"
-
hahaha
-
Not cuz they're white, but because they have an unprecedented lack of babies. If you've got a baby deficit and you make more, that's okay with me. I just hate it when you've got 20 you already neglect and don't want to take care of, and somehow think it would be a good idea to have 20 more.

:P I know, I was kidding of course.
racist.

Hahaha!
There was a famous outage in NYC that supposedly led to a mini baby boom, sometime in the 60s.

I remember Germany was having real problems with underpopulation a few years back (like two years ago, not post world war era :P). This could have been their solution.
-
Its surprising we can have an underpopulation problem when the solution is what it is.

I do remember a professor I had talking about this. I obviously wasn't really paying attention so I can't remember the context but I do remember him saying that the largest factor on pregnancy rates in developed countries was power outages. He also said the big east coast ice storm a few years ago caused a mini boom.

A similar pattern happens here in the Middle-East. When the power goes out, there's no TV, no internet, air conditioning is dead, people sweat, they shed some layers.. Chikapow! The inevitable is a result of heat and boredom.
I wonder how often it happens when trapped in an elevator.

How often does power go out in Dubai?
-
This explains why I was sitting in the corner crying during the last power outage.
-
Your right hand rejected you? :P
-
You're a bastard.
And yes, my left hand is more beautiful. DOES THAT MAKE ME A BAD PERSON?!

It's not supposed to be common but surprisngly we experience an outtage every few of months. That hard one was about 2 months ago when the power went out for two days, increasing outdoor activity and in some instances various indoor activities :P
