Some People On Youtube Are Sick

[northernrail]

In my views people who post video's on Youtube of animals (usualy Birds) getting hit by trains are sick.
Why do people see the need to post video's like this onto the internet?

It's the internet. There are sick things, and people on it.

It is pretty odd how someone can do that, I can't watch anything like that, I'd probably throw up LOL!

But as Ralph said, it's the internet. There are weirdos all over it.

Looking at their point of view - they (the people who find enjoyment in filming a bird hitting a train) may think that people who just stand on a platform taking numbers or just videoing a train pulling in 'are sick' for various reasons.

It is you're opinion that they are 'sick', you use your own definition of 'sick' = can you define it?

(Just playing Devils Advocate here - I seek no harm or offence to 'northenrail')

the Squirrel launcher is funny though

In all seriousness, it is what people define as 'sick', at the end of the day it is just an animal, with humans it would be disgraceful, but with animals, get over it - it's a dog. So what?

Reminds me of something I read recently - sorry, just paraphrasing as I don't remember the real author or quote.
"It was once said that if you put a million monkeys in front of a million typewriters (read "keyboards" today), they would produce the entire works of Shakespeare....Well, the internet has proved that wrong!"

[And, yes, I am laughing at myself here, too!]

I thought "sick" means cool?

It does, but in this case I think it means disturbed.

It's only a bird. Get over it.

It's only a bird. Get over it.

Do you have any pets?

That it is, its just bizzare that some people find enjoyment in such things.

Ive heard spotters called alot of things but "sick" certainly isnt one of them. In my opinion if you enjoy watching things die you have something wrong in the head.

To be honest, I don't think people stand on the end of a platform waiting there specifically for a bird to get hit by a train? They are probally just filming locos and such and it just happened as they were filming.

Thats not to say they should post it on youtube, but if youtube are allowing it theres not much people can do.

Do you have any pets?

No, I enjoy my animals in eating form, i.e. meat.

I assume that you are a vegeterian. If you aren't, it could be argued that everytime you visit Mc Donalds and eat a hamburger, or indeed any other form of meat, that that is also "sick".

I think we'll have to agree to disagree on this one. Ends.
