Internet Gets Nominated for Nobel Peace Prize

[Guest]

(points judges to 4chan)

new headline: Internet removed from list for possible nobel peace prize! Plased on list of suspects for everything, ever.

The internet is like a country where everyone is anonmyous, and this anonmity brings out the extremes of human behaviour (like the abusive nature of halo, etc).

The internet is for porn.

I just get this image of all these old, poor, men and women sitting around trying to determine who will win this award, I posted my picture here:

The Norwegian Nobel Committee decided the

So they are Norweigan now? That's strange, they used to be Swedish.

if the internet wins, where would the price money go?

Remember the snickers commerical with the elephant and donkey and one of them saying "I invented that!" and the other saying something along the lines of MY father this, my father that.

That was awesome!

While they are at it, they can give the Nobel in physics to "Gravity".

Something tells me a liberal quack who doesn't deserve the prize will get it instead of the Internet.

Did the American government create the basis of the modern internet?

 

[victomofreality]

It is fitting that the net should win. Think of all the times that there has been upheaval and the only thing that got us information was social networking sites.

 

[anamaniac]

I support this decision.

This should have happened a long time ago , I feel sorry for the people that now cannot have the award money, hell , isn't the internet supposed to be free anyway?

[citation][nom]djackson_dba[/nom]While it is commonly disputed that Gore ever said this, the actual quote "During my service in the United Stated Congress, I took the initiative in creating the Internet." was stated by Al Gore. I'm sure it was just a poorly phrased response, but it stuck. Bush had nothing to do with this one. I was actually watching that interview and that statement had the whole room howling with laughter.[/citation]
Wasn't it President Bush who said: "If Al invented the internet, why do all these web sites start with dubeya dubeya dubeya?"

The internet does deserve to win. Especially since the internet is not a person it speaks more to the intention of peace than recognition of specific accomplishments.

Good to see obama on the same level of the internet. 😛

 

[Computer_Lots]

Does this mean that Al Gore will get another one since he supposedly invented the internet

LOL still bitter, huh? Don't worry, one of these days a conservative will do something besides waste air and incite unruly mobs. Until then, you should probably stick to watching Fox news, and staying the hell off of Al's Internet.

Historically the anti-war presidents are the ones who end up in the worst wars that kill more people. I don't think there is anything worthy of someone spending someone elses money to help spread peace.

Net getting peace prize makes sense. People forget caste, race, ethnicity and nationality while talking on the net. Or for that matter, twitter updates, anyone ?

 

[JohnnyLucky]

Somehow I find it hard to think of the Internet as a medium for peace.

K_M82 I'm sure the internet would donate the money like Obama, one of the reasons I'm voting for the internet.
