Drudge Retort: Red Meat for Yellow Dogs

Microsoft founder turned philanthropist Bill Gates released a glass full of mosquitoes at an elite technology conference to make a point about the deadly disease malaria. "Malaria is spread by mosquitoes," Gates said onstage at the TED Conference. "I brought some. Here I'll let them roam around. There is no reason only poor people should be infected."

Bill"here have a virus"Gates...... bwwwaaaahahhaaaaaaa

Gates then waited a minute or so before assuring the audience the freed insects were malaria-free.

He did not, however, assure them that the mosquitoes had not previously bitten some poor people.

wonder what sort of true to life trick he'd have pulled to exhort the spread of aids in africa?

You'd think after releasing Vista that he'd done enough damage. What's next, chiggers?

What's next, chiggers?

What are you, a caveman? We don't call them that any more.
The proper term is a "Bruce Leroy".

no-see-ums.

reminds me of a joke:

do you know what mothballs smell like?

why yes i do, why?

how'd you get their little legs apart?

Bill Gates is my new hero.

(not really)

Gates then waited a minute or so before assuring the audience the freed insects were malaria-free.

And failed to mention that they had West Nile virus.

Misquitos are living proof there is no God.

And now here is Windows 7 that will be in 5-7 different installment versions to make my point!

Having HIV infected African Tribesman Rape random people in the audience?

Wouldn't THAT be a hoot?

If Gates had been on Leave It To Beaver, they would have said to him "Gee, Bill, don't be so goofy."

I went to a fried chicken joint and let loose a jar of sickle cell. To prove a point.

Anemia?

This has a Mister Burns feel to it. But Burns would've released dobermans.

These "malaria" free bugs were however carefully inoculated with West Nile Virus. Thank you, Thank you-Bill Gates, he'll be here all week-bada boom!

Good for Gates.. great way to make a point.. I didn't know he had such a good sense of humor (or guts).

(unless you can remember the early releases of Windows NT)

Now, when do the lawsuits start?

wonder if he's the one who emptied the fairy dust over san franfreakshow?

"Now, when do the lawsuits start?"

I was wondering the same thing. Intentional Infliction of Emotional Distress...Assault...anything else?

well, i know the guy who put the "whuppass" in the can so there's no way he can open and dump somadat on anybody. what a limpwristed turd.

Way to go Bill!!!!

The TED talks are brilliant. Hundreds of the smartest, hippest, OOTB thinkers on the planet. I encourage everyone to go there and spend some time. I'm sure there are topics everyone here would enjoy. All for free on the internet.

Notice how the Fox story posted doesn't mention anything positive about TED, offers no links to Bill's lecture, the web site, other presenters, or any information on the event whatsoever. The color-linked highlight for the week long symposium takes you to an online furniture store. Every linked word in the story is trying to sell soap.

I would have waited for him outside the lecture and then jumped him and stole his wallet and watch because there is no reason why only people who live in shitty neighborhoods should be mugged.

These cool aid drinkers that idolize Gates make me sick.

He's been fucking the people of the world for 20 years with over-priced, junk operating systems, of which faithful followers camp outside of stores for days to get new releases.

What the hell is the attraction to this goofy geek with a bowl haircut????

"What the hell is the attraction to this goofy geek with a bowl haircut????"

I think it goes all the way back to Moe Howard.

Damn, I knew Windows was full of bugs, but what the hell??

Well even though the mosquitos didn't have malaria, if they had, what are the chances the rich people would have died. I mean they can afford far better care then a tribesman in Africa. Antimalarial drugs exist, the poor folks with the disease just can't afford them. So if the rich folks actually got scared, then they're stupid.

This is not as bad as Obama releasing a mountain of bullsh#t at his press conferences.

what a prick bill is

Hey, BIGGIEDAN the little man,
What do you have against a guy that ponies up his own personal fortune to try to make the world a better place? I only use MAC but this guy has my utmost respect. You don't have to be a kool-aid drinker to respect someone that puts his money where his mouth is. If you were to do that, you'd have money all over your Dad's balls.

Try doing something good for your community someday and you'll understand.

I think it's great that Gates is spending most of his fortune on charitable efforts. (He doesn't want his kids to be burdened with massive wealth.)

But a lot of that fortune was made on the backs of temporary workers at Microsoft. The company didn't like to have full-timers on the rolls, so it played games with temp status as much as it could.

So if Gates didn't like making so much money, why not make those people full-timers and have less to give away later?

Less to give away later? Hmmm. At least those part-timers had a little money.

Would you rather the charities go without?

Gates is a hero to all trolls. Consider the Windows operating system, for instance...

Fact -

Goatman and Bill Gates were born within two weeks of each other.

Now we know why there are so many 'bugs' in every Windows release.

Those part timers were VERY WELL paid.

Goatman and Bill Gates were born within two weeks of each other.

Yes, Cali I would believe you would know this.

Too bad your judgement of character has gone senile.

It's you, $$$war, who has a weird fixation on a non-existent relationship between me
and someone I've never even met nor spoken to in person.

Is your life so boring you need to spice it up with cyberspace X-rated fantasies?

Why don't you play a game of cyberspace solitaire or something.

It's you, $$$war, who has a weird fixation on a non-existent relationship between me

Yeah! Sure! yubetcha!

Is that what's going on here? Poor lonely and grumpy runnysore is living out his pitiful lack of companionship through a fantasy involving cyber-bloggers? That's too funny. LOL

Runnysore. Step away from the PC. Get your car keys. Go do something socially active and give up the fantasies. Your mind is running amok and it's not healthy!

xplains why you jump into the middle of something betweem me and herm and had absolutely nothing to do with you. LOL

Who invited goatman to jump into the middle of this argument between Chris and Moneywar? LOL.

*sigh* (can anyone really be this dense?) Runnysore implied some sort of behind-the-blog action between me and CC. Therefore, I was involved.

Reading is fundamental, nullbrain. I really hate explaining the obvious.

You're going to have to wallow about without me the rest of the night, nullbrain. I always feel really filthy when responding to your inanities.

I'm sure there are other people whom you can troll besides me if you just get off your lazy ass and look.

Good luck.

Bla bla bla what a bore...

Bill Gates sucks.

Why doesn't Bill Gates just buy some damn DDT to save all those people in Africa .... simple really.

YES!!!

"So if Gates didn't like making so much money, why not make those people full-timers and have less to give away later?"

Because he wouldn't be considered a philanthropist for doing that.

He's not the first extremely wealthy person who spent his life nickel and diming people only to pretend to give a shit about others once he realized he has more than he can possibly spend.

"Try doing something good for your community someday and you'll understand."
