Somone please tell me good facts for why they are bad before I dip my finger into this tub of delicious nutella?

[MrWiggles]

Well, after doing some reading...

Nestle sued Ethiopia, one of the poorest countries on earth, for six million dollars. They acquired a company that was nationalized years before they owned it, and demanded repreiation under international law. They settle for one million dollar, and then made money on famine relief efforts.

Nestle has had numerous food issues in China, and caused wide spread harm to animals in south america.

They may also have offer their none dairly creamer as a breast milk formulia in third world country.

Its not as evil De Beer.

[Osmosis Jones]

If you want proof of Nestle's evil they bought out whoever made Quik (a choc milk powder) and rebranded it as NesQuik; a sure sign of the devil.

The horror of that action still haunts me.     


Also, re. vegemite: Aside from the fact that it has a taste slightly reminiscent of beer, and is delicious (possibly the two facts are related), it is the most Australian spread ever for virtue of it's practical joke potential.

To a poor hungover Indian friend, it looks a lot like nutella. Naturally, you spread nutella on very thick on toast, so this is what my friend did with vegimite, shortly before taking a huge bite. His face was utterly hilarious.

Mr. Wiggles, it's not that I necessarily distrust you... but I find your presented information highly incredible when you can't present it in correct English.

That's not an insult, nor intended to offend you. I'm just saying that any argument that doesn't feature understandable grammar is naturally vulnerable to scepticism. I'm sorry if it is not your native language, and you are doing the best you can. If so, it's very understandable.

Again, please don't be offended. I would also suggest citing some sources for your accusations so that they're more credible.

[MrWiggles]

Oh, well I'm not be wholly serious over here. When I do try to make cogent argument I pay more ready attention. Majority of the time, I do not bother with the physical labor. If you do a quick search in google for nestle evil company, you should come across a somethingaweful article and a nother semi creditable site, along with the wikipedia page on the Nestle company.

A few messages here in recent memory where I gave a damn about presentation. They are not an example of grammar perfection, but much better then my general ramblings.

I'm not terribly offended To be honestly I don't really give a flying fuck on how you perceive me in general. The internet is for everyone, even those with communication disabilities such as dyslexia. An argument validity doesn't come from superficial presentation but the strength of its premise and support.

I also dont mind explaining something I said over again, or being ignored because of it. ^_^

[Gunner-Chan]

I don't know if you know him MrWiggles. But The Architect isn't really someone worth arguing with. He'd rather bother you about your grammar and useless shit than try and say anything.

Not to mention being pretty dull witted.

[MrWiggles]

Its a good thing, I dont really give a fly fuck thing.

[The Architect]

Whereas Janet apparently knows the mature and intelligent way to handle things. Two thumbs up there.

[Tack]

Wow, ouch Janet. I'd agree with The Architect on this one. Regardless of his spelling, grammar, whatver. It's still better to quote sources than to spout bullshit.
And.
Nobody will lissen to a person who is all lulz n' shit cos its just to hard to read n keep up. The e4ort it t8ks to transl8 from a stoopid person's speech is actually hueg, n nobody wants 2 giv themselvs a headach just so they can understand u.

That spoken, I'm more picking on the sources, rather than how well you write.
I do judge people on how well they can type, but, I'm not gonna get that in the way of whatever facts they're trying to get on the table.

... Moving along?

EDIT: Ninjad.
EDIT2: And apparently Architect pulls out 'teh sarcasm'.

Let's just continue with talking about why Cadbury shouldn't get sold, instead of saying that Nutella gives you cancer because the company hates people?

[Dwarf]

It's depressing Nestlé comes from my very own country.
From Switzerland sprung an evil so great that even Gandhi's deeds look like a petty crime.

[The Architect]

It's depressing Nestlé comes from my very own country.
From Switzerland sprung an evil so great that even Hitler's deeds look like a petty crime.

One day the number of inappropriate references to Hitler and the Nazi party spread across the internet will reach a critical mass and something very, very bad will happen. Maybe.

I don't think you can feasibly compare corporate shenanigans and examples of unregulated immoral capitalism to penning tens of millions of people into muddy hell holes and slaughtering 11 million of them, while simultaneously plunging the world into a war that cost several times that many lives. Or purported satanism, or just about being the most inexcusably evil person in recent history, or whatever particular deed you had in mind.

But then, that's just what I think. Maybe you can.

[Dwarf]

Dude, it's like, the internet. If somebody says something stupid, you move on and don't look back.

[Tack]

Yeah. Shame on you Architect. Or should I say, Pol Pot.



Think of it this way. By using his name and deeds as a shameless meme on the internet, relating to anything bad, or evil, we're actually doing the world a favor. This way, he will still have his name carried down through history, which would have happened any way, but, now we're desecrating the deeds which he worked so hard to do. It's the ultimate punishment for his sins, being reduced to a name-drop when someone starts e-trolling.

... Now that I've gotten involved in this, I can't exactly say 'Move along' with clear consience. Will someone else do the honors, please?

[The Architect]

*tries to hide soiled hands*

erm... move along. Tack, you're as bad as Goeth himself for taking a hand in this.

[KaelGotDwarves]

Hey man, if you're going to rummage through a thesaurus for your earlier posts and bitch at a guy about grammar; you better be able to spell "Goethe" correctly.

Edit: ah you mean nazi goeth, ah well it's 4 am. Fact remains I could point out scores of grammar inconsistancies and improper sentence structure in your posts, but I don't because it's a fucking stupid way to prove your point.

That being said - I fucking love cadbury eggs & as an US citizen who has lived abroad much of his life...
