It is the same thing that makes you see faces in the moon and pictures in the clouds that makes you see Masonic symbols in money and messages on drinks cans.

so what does the message in that can mean to you normal humans? surely if its not a government message then what does it mean with the "the truth hurts" etc etc? and that is most certainly the american great seal imprinted on the can, same symbol on that $1 not a coincidence

It's a bit of very good marketing. What does it mean? Not much. Why is it there? Well, you're talking about it aren't you? I wouldn't have heard of the drink unless you had brought it up in this thread and I'm sure there are people all over talking about it. Indeed, it's on YouTube. The marketing team deserve a pay rise.

This is the point. There is no message. It doesn't "mean" anything. It's just a logo on a can, designed to be memorable and look "cool". Just think about it for a while. Why would they put a secret message on a soft drink can? Who are they speaking to? Why not just use email? If it's secret why put it on millions of shelves. And if you say that it's "subliminal" designed to affect peoples actions then that's total [LIFTED]. Seeing a pattern similar to another pattern does not make people love satan or murder their wives, it's a fairytale, a myth. Same goes for messages in songs when played backwards and "white noise" messages and all that utter crap. Bratty, here's a video that you must, must watch - it's a video about why we see patterns in "meaningless noise": The Pattern Behind Self-Deception - Michael Shermer The human tendency to believe strange things, from alien abductions to dowsing rods, boils down to two of the brain's most basic, hard-wired survival skills.
It doesn't mean anything. Yes it probably is.

Chris, it's like showing a dog a magic trick sometimes. Anyway, I'd say the Monster logo could just as easily be interpreted as the three nails used to crucify Jesus, and not anything Satanic at all. YMMV.

Yes, it's like the marks left by bears when they climb a tree, they probably used to scare people into making up stories about monsters back in the olden times.  If you look very carefully it's also very similar to the ancient letter M, and is actually probably a reference to the fact that Paul McCartney was cloned and replaced by an evil version. Open your mind man, don't buy in to the state's bullsh1t, see the truth. And have a toke of this spliff.

Once you work out that he's saying Fs instead of Ws that's actually quite easy to understand, i like it.

I liked it too and it comes from a classic heritage: Tam O' Shanter.Try your translation skills on that.  |  |  |  | Quote: When chapman billies leave the street, And drouthy neibors, neibors, meet; As market days are wearing late, And folk begin to tak the gate, While we sit bousing at the nappy, An' getting fou and unco happy, We think na on the lang Scots miles, The mosses, waters, slaps and stiles, That lie between us and our hame, Where sits our sulky, sullen dame, Gathering her brows like gathering storm, Nursing her wrath to keep it warm.
This truth fand honest Tam o' Shanter, As he frae Ayr ae night did canter: (Auld Ayr, wham ne'er a town surpasses, For honest men and bonie lasses). |  |  |  |  |
That's one of the easiest parts. It's a great poem and quite sinister.

Idiot zips through the streets of Moscow on his Yamaha R1 donorcycle ClickyWhen he gets into heavier traffic at about the 3 min mark, there are some scrotum-shrivelling moments. I wouldn't expect that he'll be long for this world.

Yes but is the other users on the road that might be a problem. When stationary many people open their doors to through out the contents of the ashtray. That would be an instant disaster.

True; all it would have taken is one of those motorists to try a lane change and it would have been Game Over. Well done on reaching 10,000 posts by the way. Pcernie will have to buck his ideas up if he's going to stay ahead.
