I just learned on Twitter that Hurricane Irma doesn't exist.

1. She is a conspiracy theory nutjob

The government is controlling the weather type person.

[xor]

12. That youtube account is filled with lizard people videos

It is scary how the internet allows mentally ill people to confirm each others crazy thoughts. The comments on that video are disturbing. No doubt some are sarcastic, but plenty accept to that way of thinking. 😓

[gratuitous]

2. Just once

I'd like to see one of these butt-munches suffer the consequences of their little denial conspiracy theories. I don't want them dead, just chastened.

[Laffy Kat]

3. Perhaps she should be escorted to Miami for the weekend.

[n2doc]

21. Or better yet, Key West

Give her a life preserver. Free Vacay!

4. A neighbor told me this week

that climate change is a CIA plot to make Al Gore rich. And he could prove it. I was flabbergasted that anyone could be so stupid. Left me speechless.

[leftofcool]

5. I am so long past flabbergasted.

Hubby and I have decided that half the country is stupid and we just deal with it.

[syringis]

7. It reminds me Einstein

“Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the universe.”

[Codeine]

19. As with many quotes attributed

to Einstein the evidence leans strongly to that one being apocryphal.

[syringis]

25. Indeed

For this one, I didn't know. But I knew he has been credited with many apocryphal quotes.

I ran for the laziest way.

[yardwork]

11. Does he think that the CIA is causing weather change?

[vlyons]

13. Yes he believes that the CIA is secretly seeding storm clouds

If a reasonable person stopped to even do the simple math, it would seem obvious that there are simply not enough planes to seed clouds, and certainly not enough silver nitrate or dry ice to seed a Cat 5 hurricane. It's simply preposterous. And that doesn't even account for a decent man like Al Gore to want to rain death and destruction on millions of people for a few bucks.

[WinkyDink]

14. That last sentence defines Republicans, who "want to rain death and destruction on millions of

people for a few bucks."

[yardwork]

16. If only the CIA had this power! No more droughts or wildfires!

Wars could be stopped in their tracks by dropping a hurricane on them. Much more effective than bombs. We could say to the folks in the Middle East - now knock it off or we'll send some Cat 5 hurricanes over you.

[vlyons]

18. Russians already discovered and proved

that bribing Republicans to launder their billions and take bribes is far more effective than waging a hot war.

[FuzzyRabbit]

28. That bears repeating.

It was far less expensive and much quicker to take over the US government by bribing the leaders of the Republican party then it would have been had they waged a shooting war.

[yardwork]

17. Follow up question - how is this making Al Gore rich?

Does your neighbor think that making documentaries makes people rich? Seriously?

[longship]

6. Ohhhh boy.

What in the Sam Hell?

Get a bowl, a spoon, and some milk, because that woman is cuckoo for Cocoa Puffs.

[MFM008]

8. they are morons who deserve to have IRMA

buzz right through their living rooms.

[bathroommonkey76]

9. The date on this person's browser is from Sept 7.

[JHB]

24. There's been follow-up video recorded 2am this morning...

...though unclear in what time zone. But then, for this person the time zone is the least relevant "zone" she is in.

I have a mildly morbid curiosity whether the concept of "range" and "coverage gaps" will dawn on her as as the eye of the hurricane "magically" extrudes from Cuba. Or, as seems more likely, what bizarre theory will account for it (maybe those "NOAA CGI guys" got behind schedule?).

The comments are a hoot too. A really sad hoot, but a hoot nonetheless.

&t=92s

[sarisataka]

29. I laughed so hard

I nearly peed. No, a coverage gap will never occur to this one. She either thinks there are radar stations in mid-ocean or that radar has infinite range...

I would be happy to drive her to Florida and drop her off with an umbrella so she can see first hand what is happening on the ground. Ft Myers may be a nice place to watch from.

[patricia92243]

10. Oh good! Irma doesn't exist. Now I can stop being so tense with fright that I'm sick. Sarcasm

sarcasm

[spanone]

15. dear debora, you should head on down there...water's warm...slight breeze....go on!!!

and while you're there, have your fucking head examined.

[tblue37]

20. And like Chris Christie, she could have the whole beach to herself, since everyone else has

run away.

[JHB]

22. Same YouTuber? Or separated at birth with only half a brain each?

[Lucinda]

23. ...

[VMA131Marine]

26. What's the date on that image

Because Irma is there now:

Also someone should point out that US doppler radar coverage stops about 90-100 miles from shore because of that whole curved earth thing

[krispos42]

27. The stupid is strong with that one.

I guess India has no weather because it doesn't show up on ground-based radar in the U.S.

[gldstwmn]

30. Nasa manufactured the storm

as a weapon of mass destruction! There is a basement in the pizza parlor you just can't see it!

[sarisataka]

31. Mmmm....

[kpete]

32. an appropriate place for this

WE GOT SOME DINOSAURS AT THE BEACH. This is why nobody takes FL seriously

33. I know. Let's have some fun in the surf and breezes!

Wheeeeee!
