MMW is the real douche. Last year was the hottest on record in the continental United States. How do you explain that without the existence of global climate change? MMW, stick to music lists, and quit using South Park for your comebacks.

The Earth has been naturally warming and cooling for hundreds of years. In the year 1000, they grew crops on Greenland. Look it up. Just google A Skeptic’s Guide to Debunking Global Warming. And cheer up john, my oh so depressed friend.
