[Julius Seeker]

We currently have 180 billion barrels of oil in our reserves which has Canada placed at #2 in the world, behind Saudi Arabia with 264 billion, and ahead of the 3rd place Iraq with 115 billion barrels. Canada is expected to have 315 billion barrels due to rapidly advancing technology in the field which will elevate us to #1.


World Oil Reserves millions of barrels
Saudi Arabia 261,750
Canada 180,000
Iraq 115,000
United Arab Emirates 97,800
Kuwait 96,500
Iran 89,700

Just as a question, why did you say "we do" as opposed to "I think we will" or similar?

[Julius Seeker]

We've got more money than God! =)

[Nev]

I don't know whether to ask if you're feeling all right or link to the Penny Arcade comic where Tycho says "I invented the hippo!"

This would be in humorous attempt to compare both the non-sequitur-ish and fallacious aspects of your statement to something nonthreatening but still silly, and thus show you what I believe to be the errors in your response.

[Julius Seeker]

180 billion barrels of oil is still trillions of dollars. We're rich, RICH RICH RICH!!!!!!!!! Once we have the technology developed to extract all of it, the reserves are up to 315 billion barrels, RICH RICH RICH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! RICHER THAN NAZIS!!!!!!!!!!!!

We have enough oil to wipe out all the aquatic life on earth! =)

[Nev]

I think I may actually be doing you a favor by telling you I think you're not really thinking very deeply here at all. This is not the topic to joke about, Seek.

[SineSwiper]

Mental, in case you weren't aware, Canada is sitting on top of the world's largest potential oil zone in the world, the Tar Sands. The problem is extraction: it is prohibitively expensive to seperate the oil from the sand. Seeker, I think by the time Canada gets the technology up and costs down for the Tar Sands to be effective, we would have already hit Peak Oil for the rest of the world and mostly given up on oil.

Too bad y'all don't have a military...

Canada, the 51st state. Got a nice ring to it...

[Julius Seeker]

Esque, you are actually stupid enough to believe that Canada is part of the United States? Well, you are probably also stupid enough to be one of the 11% of Americans who can't locate their own country on the map:

This is our Throne of Canada =)



And this is our Royal Scepter



And this is our Monarch



And here is our Empress




Soon you too will learn to bow before the great oil rich Sultanate of Canuckistan! We have taken the opportunity to ally ourselves with every major nuclear power in the entire world. I am sure you learned about the three R's in school, well we don't give a crap about that anymore; we will have the three O's, Oil! Opulence! and Omnipotence! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!

"Your excellency! Technological advancements are moving along at an alarming rate! We will have your ungodly amounts of oil extracted in no time!"


"Excellency, we are wealthier beyond our wildest dreams. We are rich! RICH RICH RICH!"

"Sire! Do you not think it is time to upgrade our military a bit?"

"Oh yeah, every nuclear power in the world is allied to us"


And we are rich sire, RICHER THAN Any human has ever dreamed of!"

"I once had great dreams of wealth! SHEIZER!!!"

"WOOOOOOHOOOOOOO!"

RICH!!!!!!!!!

Are you retarded enough to miss his point, or did you purposefully do it in order to show us that you know how to use google image search?

[Julius Seeker]

In case you didn't notice, Tort, his point was retarded, just like your post. But Tort, don't worry, all is not lost, we haven't forgotten about you even if you do suffer mental deficiencies: I'll write the cheques, you can drive the trucks.




As the plastic action figure says (plastic, which I will point out, plastic is made from oil, like the kind we have in abundance), know your role woman!

Yes, his post was silly, but pretending to misunderstand someone is actively obnoxious.

[Nev]

The image-heavy post was moderately funny, Seek, but your incredibly high opinion of yourself has got to go. You're not nearly cool enough to get away with condescending to people like that - if anyone is.

[Derithian]

I am.....because I eat babies......that's where I get my sustenance for when I burn all your oil fields.....then guess what Seek? Not only are you filthy haggard and poor but also crushed under the booted heel of the US.....unless you think your paddle boats with muskets can stop us

[Julius Seeker]

Kupek:

"We are both beings of logic are we not? In this particular situation, I can only arrive at a single response to conclude this conversation: Duh!"

Mental:

"Don' even speak like you know what it is to be cool! Trillions of dollars worth in oil, now DAS cool!"


Derith:

Welcome to the Sultanate of Canuckistan




We may be poorly armed and filthy, but we're prepared to fight!



Oh yeah, forgot to mention we are allied to every major Nuclear power in the world =)


Watch out or BOOOM!!!!

[Derithian]

So you have a jesus freak in a thong....is that something to be proud of?

[Nev]

JESUS. Despite my usually populist leanings, even <i>I'm</i> inclined to start a vote to ban Seek at this point.

[EsquE]

Esque, you are actually stupid enough to believe that Canada is part of the United States? Well, you are probably also stupid enough to be one of the 11% of Americans who can't locate their own country on the map

I'm smart enough to know what a joke is...and smart enough not to waste any more time on you...

[Julius Seeker]

Oh I'm sorry Esque, I didn't really realize that this was supposed to be a funny joke. You know, I can be kind of dense like that sometimes:

"Too bad y'all don't have a military... Canada, the 51st state. Got a nice ring to it..."

Hmmm, I think I understand a little better now... Did you come up with that one all by yourself? How funny and clever! You really have quite a talent. Seriously! That shot at my country, really funny stuff! =)




Derith:

You forgot pikes and claymores =)

But most of all, our Jesusfreak has awesome blue warpaint



And apparently, by that expression, a really bad case of hemheroids! =)

To bring this thread back to the point, the biggest gainers of oil and gasoline in the world are the governments. OPEC only controls 20% of the world's oil. If we wanted to, we could drain them. But that would mean that the governments here (US and Canada) won't be able to rape you as much. So they keep the supply to the point where they can charge the most taxes and people still keeping spending. Simply, really

[Nev]

Seeker: PLEASE shut up. This isn't my board anymore, but if it were, I'd be really, really tempted to ban you. We don't need all this disparagement here.

Mental, I obviously have offended you greatly. I believe you have missed it, but I wrote a very extensive apology directed towards you which can be read here: viewtopic.php?t=9210

Maybe you are right, perhaps we do not need all this disparagment here; I am sorry for being such a bad, sick, twisted, sadistic, son of a bitch in your eyes; but I am who I am, and I won't change because some guy on the Internet says I should. However, for you, I will not write any more disparaging comments in your direction. I will respect your sensitive nature.

[EsquE]

Oh I'm sorry Esque, I didn't really realize that this was supposed to be a funny joke. You know, I can be kind of dense like that sometimes

It was a simple lighthearted comment that you decided to take as some kind of insult, despite knowing nothing of me and my intentions, and proceeded to throw this bizarre inferiority seizure of yours...

Congratulations...you rule...

[SineSwiper]

I dunno whether to laugh at Seeker's posts or be angry that there's no actual discussion on the topic at hand.

[Nev]

I think the topic at hand has become Seek's flagrant disregard for decency towards others at this point.
