So, thanks to Allen Prather, I just found out that my carbon footprint is a paltry 2.95 tons. Even when I push the numbers a lot higher than what I know them to be, I can't seem to reasonably break 4.
Ok, but I'm not going to internalize this. I'm not going to let it impact my self esteem.
I'm sure lots of guys have small carbon footprints. Does anyone know how much carbon is in Enzyte?
I'll bet Allen sent that link to me to brag. Bastard. "Eeee! Look at me! I'm Allen Prather! My carbon footprint is 15.6 tons per year! Eeee! I'm such a big man!"
You know, not everyone can have above average footprints. I mean, average means average and that means, you know, that some people aren't. Like freaks with grotesquely oversized carbon footprints.
What can you do with a footprint that big anyway? In my experience, not much. I mean, really, if you think about it, it's better to have something closer to average or maybe a little smaller.
Men and women alike agree with me here. I mean, no one likes, you know, sitting there with your friend and, you know, maybe things are getting a little hot -- global warming -- and then you find out that they're bringing a 15 ton footprint to the party. Total turn off.
...
Yeah, so, anyway, I need a bigger footprint. Is there like a carbon pump or something? I'm thinking of burning stuff. Isn't there some kind of adopt-an-oil-fire thing I could sign on to?
There has to be something you can do about this.

Posted by: Flibbert at July 10, 2007 07:52 AMI did two calculations: one as an imaginary calculation of my time here in NYC (1.6, TINY!) and one from back in Michigan--14.9 "Much Bigger than Average", which means my spending one season here and three in Michigan averages to about 11.575. Rawr, baby.
Posted by: Scott at July 10, 2007 10:53 AMI just checked and when I lived in Georgia, it looks like my footprint was about 15.5 tons per year. Not too shabby!
It's clear: New York is costing me my manhood.
Posted by: Flibbert at July 10, 2007 12:04 PMYou could do like Al Gore and buy "Carbon Footprint Credits." Send me money and I will burn some extra carbon for you.
Posted by: Inspector at July 11, 2007 07:01 PMThat's not a bad plan except my problem is that I don't have enough carbon to burn. I'd need to pay someone like Prather to make some extra for me and I don't think that's in my budget right now.
Posted by: Flibbert at July 12, 2007 12:32 AMThat's what I mean - Al Gore pays others money for "carbon credits" so that they "save" carbon for him. That way he can still keep his mansion.
I'm saying you can pay me money and I'll make a *bigger* footprint in your name. Two can play at this game, Al Gore! Mwhahahaha!
