Climate-Rising Tip #22 - Take Your Clothes Off (Only For Attractive Women Of Age)

Along with the stipulation of only being for attractive women of age (who are not related to me), this rule is only to be followed in the cold winter months. The greenies tell us to wear a sweater or two around the house in the winter so that we can turn the thermostat down and use our heaters less, which saves energy. Screw that. Turn the heat up and get naked.

For every 10 subscribers, we'll saran wrap a Prius

Ladies and gentlemen, we've already offered you incentive for subscribing by telling you that for every 5 subscribers, we'll pour a bottle of bleach on a tree. We've decided that we will add a new subscription incentive after every 10 climate-rising tips. Here's the latest: every time 10 people subscribe, we'll saran wrap a Prius, rendering it completely useless (well, even more useless).

To kick this incentive off, we've already ravaged one Prius. Our apologies for the poor lighting - the only place we knew we could find a Prius was our local Whole Foods, which has a poorly-lit parking garage.

Keep on subscribing!

Climate-Rising Tip #21 - Send Text Messages Via Mail

Much like the U.S. House of Representatives can solve the healthcare problem as they're solving the College Football BCS problem, I can solve two problems at once. However, the problems I solve are more important than the problems they solve. Major problem 1: It's freezing outside. Major problem 2: People send text messages while they drive. Then they die. ... Solution: Send all text messages via snail mail. Sending text messages via mail will require us all to use much more paper. It will also require the U.S. Postal Service to use more gasoline and other energies. This pushes The Anti-Green Movement and will help warm the earth. Also, this will prevent people from texting while driving. Whenever anyone texts while driving, they die. Therefore, this Climate-Rising Tip will save many lives. Text messages cost 10 cents to send. A piece of mail costs 44 cents to send. Send the equivalent of 5 text messages in one envelope, and you've essentially turned a profit. I know a lot of my readers love to participate in the act of "sexting". Sending sexy photos of yourself via mail would be somewhat unsatisfactory because they could get in the hands of a pervert mailman like the one pictured above. Instead of sexting, I recommend that you do this:

Sprint to the house of the person you wish to sext. You must do this naked.

When someone answers the door, visually attack them with your hands and arms. Wave them around very lustily.

In a sultry voice, say "Sext! Sext! Sext!".

If someone other than the planned recipient answers the door, just ask them to forward the sext to the planned recipient.

Climate-Rising Tip #20 - Only Cook With Easy Bake Ovens

I've mentioned that we should all eat a lot of food, particularly meat, but I haven't told you how to cook it in the most inefficient way possible. These days, modern cooking appliances - stoves, ovens, microwaves - are designed to be very efficient because adults like that kind of nonsense. However, kids don't really care about saving the earth yet, so Easy Bake Ovens still have maximum inefficiency. Easy Bake Ovens obviously can't cook much food at once, so you'll have to buy a plethora of them. A few benefits will come of this:

The Easy Bake Ovens you purchased will eventually contribute to your local landfill.

After we all buy a great amount of Easy Bake Ovens, the manufacturer will increase production, and will therefore waste energy and materials

More Easy Bake Ovens = more electricity used.

One negative consequence of owning multiple Easy Bake Ovens is appearing to be a giant tool. Whenever people notice something embarrassing in my possession, I blame it on my friends. For example:

"You own pink leather pants?" "Uhh...those are my friend's." "Oh, okay. But this DVD collection of every Full House episode has got to be yours, right?" "No no, those belong to my friend." "But what about this issue of Yoga Monthly?"

That's enough. You get the gist. I wanted to mention this topic because you must be weary of using the "friend" excuse for your Easy Bake Ovens. If you are a man and you use this excuse for your Easy Bake Ovens, people may think that you are friends with little girls. These people will think that you are a pervert and will then call the police on you.

Climate-Rising Tip #19 – Forget Plastic. Forget Paper. Use Copper.

You may not know this, mortal, but the way you use money can make a huge impact on the economy. According to my calculations, billions of monetary transactions are made every day. If everyone wasted just a tad of energy during every transaction, billions of tads of energy would be wasted every day. There's a lot of potential there, and we're going to tap that potential like syrup hunters tap maple trees. Here's a current rundown of how current transactions are made and who makes them:

Barter: This is the ultimate hippy transaction. Do not do this.

Credit/Debit Cards: These are for the weak hippies or for people looking to save money who are currently being tricked into saving the environment.

Cash: Cash is for money launderers, strippers, or strip club customers.

You may be thinking, "Wow Matt, you really make every form of transaction sound awful. You must have a brilliant idea for me." As usual, you are correct. From now on, if you are a true Anti-Greenie, you will only use pennies for all of your monetary transactions. Pennies are extremely inefficient - they cost more to make than they're worth, they take a lot of energy to carry around, and they're a waste of metal, among other things. Also, pennies are kind of brown, which is the official color of the Anti-Green Movement. Before I posted this Climate-Rising Tip, I've been testing this idea out for all of you, and it's been working great. From a few months of studying, I've discovered a few helpful tips you should keep in mind while using the penny in mass quantities:

Disguise your pennies to fool greenies into thinking you're on their side:

Sorry nitpickers, but I had to crop out a few of his chins for this picture.

It will be very hard to pay your bills in just pennies. If you want to, you can simply ship rolls upon rolls of pennies to the companies you owe money. However, that's pretty efficient. I recommend personally driving your pennies to the billing addresses of the said companies. To make this easier, I constantly keep the trunk of my car full of pennies.

Some people might accuse you of forging a penny. Call them an idiot and tell them that the ghost of Abe Lincoln will haunt them. If this does not faze them, tell them that once I'm no longer in this world, I will haunt them as well.

It's quite easy to pay less than necessary when you use only pennies. Simply hand over a bunch of pennies to any cashier and tell them how much money you gave them. They'll usually be very foolish and trust you. Because of this, you can "forget" to include a penny or two every once in a while.

Finally, many people will try to refuse your pennies for any transaction over 50 cents. If anyone is not willing to accept your pennies, throw the pennies at their face and run away with the merchandise you were trying to purchase. While you do so, yell, "HOW'S IT FEEL TO GET ABED IN THE FACE!?"

Climate-Rising Tip #18 - Fly A Kite Through A Wind Farm

Quick. Think of a well known man from America's history who flew a kite for a good cause. If you didn't think of Benjamin Franklin, you're wrong. The answer is Benjamin Franklin. He supposedly tied a key to a kite, flew it in a thunderstorm, and discovered electricity. He is now the only man who wasn't a US president to be featured on United States currency (except for the guy who founded the US Mint - it's pretty much a given that he deserves his mug on something). This happened solely because he flew a kite. He did nothing else for the people of America. Now he's actually on the most expensive piece of circulated currency - the hundred dollar bill. Don't you want to be featured on a hundred dollar bill sometime in the far future? Don't you want to go Anti-Green? If so, you need to fly a kite through a wind farm. You can take two routes here:

Use extra-strength metal wire for your kite string. Your kite will get caught in the wind turbines and will jam them, arresting the natural power generation of the Greenies.

Use fishing line for your kite string. Your kite will be less likely to jam the wind turbines, but after you leave the kite, your fishing line will never degrade, which will upset biodegradable-loving Greenies.

I suggest using a twine composed of both metal and fishing wire. With your help, wealthy folk of the future will refer to hundred dollar bills as "Anti-Greenians" rather than "Benjamins". If only one of our faces gets to adorn the hundred dollar bill, I call dibs. On second thought, that might be a poor decision. People would keep hundred dollar bills out of circulation solely so they could look at my handsome face.

Climate-Rising Tip #17 - Spray Paint Solar Panels White

First California thinks about banning all black cars. Now the United States Secretary of Energy wants us all to paint our roofs white. One can deduct two simple facts from these stories:

Things that are black run inefficiently.

Especially when on top of buildings.

What color are solar panels? Black. And where are they typically located? On top of buildings. Therefore, you should all spray paint your solar panels white. Do not use regular paint for this - that would not emit enough aerosol into the atmosphere. By the way, if black cars are inefficient, aren't black Priuses somewhat of a paradox now?

Climate-Rising Tip #16 - Dump Crap Into Bodies Of Water

The Greenies hate it when we put stuff in bodies of water. We could probably pour some water into water and they would rally against it. We're allowed to dump things on land, so why can't we dump things in water? We have landfills, so why can't we have waterfills? What are you saying, people of the world? Are fish more important than humans? One might argue that we can't have waterfills because fish and birds can get stuck in those plastic 6-pack rings, but people can get stuck in those rings just as easily. I eat a lot. I don't always watch what I'm about to consume. You never know. This travesty is not fair. This means that we need to throw as much stuff as we can into water. I've made a few rules for this climate-rising tip:

Don't dump into other people's bodies of water. That's rude. If someone took a dump in your body of water, wouldn't you be extremely upset? Only dump things into your own body of water. If you do not have a body of water, dig a hole, insert a liner, and fill it with water. Then dump.

Please do not throw bodies into your body of water. While this would be quite ironic and make me giggle, throw only inanimate objects into the water.

Only throw in items that the fish and sharks will enjoy. They don't want your old unusable crap. They want fun things, like ponies and ice cream and bicycles. Notice how I singled out fish and sharks in this rule. Do not cater to stingrays. In fact, if you have any stingray poison, toss some in. I think we all know why I harbor a strong hatred for stingrays.

You've done your part to destroy the world."][/caption] While you're still in an Anti-Green mindset, check out this short film inspired by The Anti Green Movement. It's quite funny.

Climate-Rising Tip #15 - Defend Yourself With An Anti-Green Gun

If you've been reading the blog lately, you know that my safety is now constantly threatened by vengeful Greenies. You also know that I'm going on a summer Anti-Green tour. On this tour, I'm going to encounter plenty of people. Some of these people will most assuredly be Greenies. Some of them may want to hurt me. This is why I have bought a gun to protect myself. Do not fret. Read on. I haven't bought a gun that can kill people. I have bought a gun that is designed to stop only Greenies dead in their tracks. Anti-Greenies are immune to this type of gun. Also, this gun does not need bullets. You're dying to know what kind of gun I'm going to protect myself with. Well, think about it. What do Greenies hate with a burning passion? What do Greenies fear the most? What do Greenies fight against every day? Carbon dioxide. I will be protecting myself with a CO2 gun, also known as an airsoft gun. Usually, CO2 guns are used to shoot plastic pellets. The plastic pellets are propelled with a carbon dioxide canister. Bursts of carbon dioxide force the pellets to shoot from the barrel. These guns are fairly safe; some people use them to engage in friendly battle. I won't be shooting any plastic pellets with my CO2 gun. I'm going to be shooting mine with an empty magazine. Why? Because the gun will shoot carbon dioxide. When threatened, I will point my gun at Greenies and shoot 100% pure carbon dioxide directly at their face. This will stun the Greenies and render them defenseless. If this technique fails to harm, I will inject them with gasoline or lock them in a room full of burning plastic water bottles.

Climate-Rising Tip #14 - Steal A Tray Monday

Some cafeterias across the nation participate in a terrible, terrible tradition of "Trayless Tuesdays". Trayless Tuesdays are a travesty. Zach B from Hastings has one word to describe Trayless Tuesdays - "Disgusting." Disgusting indeed. Well said Zach. What happens on these Tuesdays? Some Cafeterias do not provide trays for carrying your food. The cafeteria workers usually tell students they don't put them out to save the earth because trays need quite a bit of water to be washed. Cafeteria people - this is awful. This must be stopped. What are you going to think of next? Forkless Fridays? Spoonless Saturdays? Maybe you can implement Starving Sundays and simply not serve food once a week. As you can see, Trayless Tuesdays are ridiculous. To protest, we all need to participate in Steal A Tray Monday. Every Monday before Trayless Tuesday, steal a tray and take it back to your room. Then use it on Tuesday. You should do this every week, but I've made a Facebook event for Monday, February 16th. This way we can spread the word and get our friends in on it. Invite all your homies. If you're a big pansy and/or you have morals that permit you from stealing, simply dirty a bunch of other things on Tuesdays to make up for your lost tray. Derek B from Nova Scotia said, "My friends and I have been intentionally dirtying twice as many plates on tuesdays to counteract the lack of trays!" Derek, you are the Canadian man. Steal A Tray Mondays - Because we should be able to get a tray 24/7, not just 24/6.

Climate-Rising Tip #13 - Go Anti Green for Christmas

My friends, the Christmas season has approached fast. So fast that I've only been able to give you one tip that takes advantage of the Christmas season. My sincere apologies. Here are a few more Christmas season tips you need to start now.

Quadruple layer the wrapping paper.  In actuality, you should shoot for anywhere between 10 and 20 layers, but I didn't know the technical term for any number higher than four. Not only will this help TAGM,  but your gifts will look much larger. Bonus: young kids LOVE unwrapping presents. For them, I suggest you wrap a ball of wrapping paper about 50 times. It will be the equivalent of opening 50 presents!

Send giant Christmas cards to everyone, especially people you don't know - just make up some addresses and names. Your personal goal is 500 cards. Bonus: include a 15 page report of everything your family's been up to for the past year. If 15 pages is a bit much for you, write actual information on the first page and gibberish on the 14 following pages. People only read the first few words anyways. Be sure to lie exaggerate about your mediocre life to make yourself look better than everyone else. This will show the world that life as an AG is the one and only life to live.

Some greenies plan on planting their Christmas trees after Christmas. This is stupid. Burn it. Host a tree-burning party at your house. I recommend going outside for the actual burning.

Use cheap plastic decorations. When the season is over, burn them.

There you have it. I hope you all have a somewhat alright Christmas.

How to make money by Going Anti Green

From reader Bryan Glass: I was reading you blog and started thinking about the positive effects of global warming, and how you can make money by going anti-green.  For example: 1) Buy "near-waterfront" property along the coast 2) Go anti-green 3) Relax while global warming converts your "near-waterfront" property to "waterfront" property 4) Profit Special thanks to Bryan Glass for this investment scheme. From now on, we will be featuring emails, comments, and Facebook comments from readers on Wednesdays. Be sure to leave clever comments!

Ask an AG #1 - Public transit and the Funtard

This is a new Monday segment. You send in questions, we answer. I don’t own a car and take public transit. Are you going to scold me? -Aaron I won’t scold you because I can tell that you’re a true anti-greenie; however, I do think less of you. I also think that you’re a fool. Luckily for you, there are several ways that you can make up for your slackage and I fully expect you to do so. The first thing I recommend you do is mock yourself for using public transportation. --Matt Matt, You are a fu**tard. -Stu I'm a bit confused. First of all, "You are a fu**tard" is a statement, not a question! You're silly. Second of all, I think you misspelled the word "funtard" - I don't know what else you would be trying to say beyond those asterisks. I've never heard of the word "funtard", but I assume a funtard is someone who radiates fun day after day. I'm guessing this person is also widely known to be hilarious and extremely attractive? Oh Stu, you get me every time. Thanks again, Stu! --Matt

Climate-Rising Tip #12 - Keep your car running at all times

It's officially winter in the midwest. Mother nature has dumped a couple inches of snow upon us. Sadly, this snow will stay on the ground until April because midwest winters are notorious for never raising above 32 degrees Fahrenheit. I park my car outside, which is really awful in the winter. Snow or no snow, an inch-thick layer of ice forms on every window of your car overnight. Back in the day of high school, this layer of ice on the windshield was a huge burden to me. School, which was 20 minutes away from my house, started at 7:50. Naturally, I woke up at 7:30, put some clothes on, chewed a piece of gum because that's quicker than brushing your teeth, ate a couple of untoasted Pop-Tarts, and was on my way by 7:33. But in the winter, I would have to clean the ice off of my car or face immediate death while driving due to the 0% visibility factor. Most days, I chose to clean the ice off. This took me anywhere from 5 to 10 minutes. Because of this setback, I was late to school just about every day in the winter. I eventually wised up (is it "wised" or "wose"?) and changed my winter morning routine. I would wake up, go outside and start the car with the heat blasting, get ready for school, then go to school. By the time I got to my car, all the ice had melted off. This worked beautifully and was great for Anti Green efforts. [caption id="attachment_163" align="alignright" width="185" caption="Insert: Woman thinks she's great because she has a remote car starter; subsequently has only 3 Myspace friends"][/caption] I quickly realized the major flaw in this plan. I got really cold when I went outside to start the car right after I woke up in my pajamas. At first, I considered buying one of those fancy remote car starters. My buddy had one of those. He always showed it off and thought he was better than everyone because he had one. Everyone who didn't have a remote car starter despised him solely because he had one. Knowing this, I scratched that plan. I couldn't have everyone despising me. I'm a likable guy. It's been awhile since high school, and I've wose up even more. Why waste your time starting your car a few minutes before you leave when you can just keep it running at all times? There are three benefits of this:

Your car will be in perfect condition any time you need it.

Your car will be emitting a great amount of carbon dioxide, which will raise the climate, which will make winter less harsh.

You won't be one of those a-holes who uses a remote car starter.

To sum this tip up - keep your car running 24/7, even when you're not in or near it. You may be afraid of theft, so here's how you deal with that problem. Pretty much all cars these days come with two keys. While the car is running with one key inside, simply lock the doors so no one can get in. Use the second key for access to the running car. EDIT: A reader asked me why I don't just use Summer Wheeze on my icy car windows. Loyal reader, I hate to break it to you, but Summer Wheeze is in fact a fictional product only found in the world of Frosty Returns. Again, I truly apologize. I hate to be the bearer of bad news.

I'm calling out NBC and NBC knows why

One might think that the title of this post is referring to the fact that NBC gave Rosie O'Donnell a show. While this is epically disappointing, I'm referring to NBC's "Green Week". I tuned in to the National Broadcasting Company's channel to watch The Office and 30 Rock - two sources of inspiration in my humorous life - and noticed that the NBC peacock logo was GREEN. I started getting a bit nervous. Then I saw a PRO-GREEN commercial with that nerdy little Asian guy from Heroes. The commercial was sponsored by NBC! I put together the clues and realized that NBC is having Green Week! My mind was racing. First I considered a boycott against NBC, but to do that I'd have to stop watching The Office and 30 Rock. Then I realized that I live in America! Right next to playing baseball and eating apple pie, one of our biggest pastimes is suing people! I'm therefore suing NBC. My claim is actually somewhat warranted. Here's why: According to Wikipedia, "The Fairness Doctrine was a policy of the United States Federal Communications Commission (FCC) that required the holders of broadcast licenses to present controversial issues of public importance and to do so in a manner that was honest, equitable, and balanced." Let's see. Is NBC the holder of a broadcast license? Check. Is going green a controversial issue of public importance? Check. Did NBC present the aforementioned public issue in a manner that was honest, equitable, and balanced? Nope. Bad news - the Fairness Doctrine was abolished in 1987. However, nothing can stand in the way of the anti-green movement! I will sue the FCC for abolishing the Fairness Doctrine. To the execs at NBC - you just read about the pain I'm about to smack down on you in the judicial system of America. There's only one way to make this all go away - BROWN WEEK. Make it happen.

Climate-Rising Tip #11 - Support the color brown

In the world of color, green is obviously the leading man of the green movement. Today - Monday, December 1st, 2008 - the official color of the Anti Green Movement is hereinwidthsoforth declared as BROWN. Why is this?

The green movement is named so because green signifies life among plants. What signifies death among plants? Brown.

Brown goes well with my eyes.

From now on, I expect you anti-green people to embrace, love, wear, and spread the color brown. How can you do this? Simple. Constantly wear brown. Also, exchange everything in your possession for the same thing in the color brown. If the necessities in life you need (you obviously need necessities) don't come in the color brown, dye them brown or color them in with a brown permanent marker. Dye your hair brown. I also recommend visiting a tannery once or twice a week to darken your skin to a beautiful golden brown. EDIT: DO NOT visit a tannery. We have since learned that animal hide is made into leather at tanneries. If you do this to your skin, you will most likely die. If not, you will be in a great deal of pain. I repeat, DO NOT go to a tannery. Go to a tanning salon. ***We assume no responsibility for those of you who have visited a tannery prior to this edit.*** We're going to make it even easier for all of you to sport the color brown. I'm sure you're aware of the Victoria's Secret clothing line called "Pink". If not, click that link. We're going to put our own spin on this obnoxious clothing line. We're going to make it better and change it to "Brown". Yup. That's absolutely brilliant. I know. Expect shots of future sweatpants, flip flops, purses, and much more to be popping up in fashion magazines within the next few weeks. The clothing line Pink is known for sweatpants and shorts with the word PINK prominently displayed on the butt. A gentleman sent me a message saying he will not wear our BROWN clothing line because his "[Rear] is so big that it's like a billboard. If you wanna put something on that, I'm gonna charge." True anti-greenies should know better than this man. If you're really for the anti-green movement, you will let us advertise for free on your backside. Before you ask, yes. We did include a picture of this attractive girl to get better ratings. We're trying to spread the anti green movement and we're more than willing to stoop down to that level. Also, if you didn't like this post, here's a somewhat relevant link you'll like.
