These look cool, but unfortunately they make little sense.

More personal attacks?

Bro, do you even neurology?

This looks...okay.

They don't really have feelings in the same way that we do.

Actually, I do have a personality, and unlike some people these days I'm not afraid to use it to defend the things I care about the most, like biodiversity. If you appreciate the incredible spectacle of natural selection symbolized by these crustaceans, you could have expressed it in a more constructive manner.

How about I nuke /you/ from orbit, asshole!

Also, that last frog look like it dealt with a nasty case of nose rub at some point. I've heard that happens a lot with this species in captivity, unless you give them a big enclosure and pad the front and the sides with moss or some other soft visual barrier.

It really took people more than a few seconds to see the frogs? Really?

No, no, the correct way to respond to people like that would be:

No aliens?

Physical media will probably be in demand again once people realize that it gives them a little more control over what media they actually own.

And, if you want proof:

Hydroelectric projects are only renewable in the sense that they can produce energy so long as the water is flowing; they cause huge amounts of damage to rainforest ecosystems, and they keep the organisms they displace from coming back, so the damage never heals.

Hydropower is /not/ sustainable.

If someone remade the game, it should be remade with more varied enemies, more frightening enemies, more difficult gameplay, and more interesting weapons.

Avatar as in James Cameron's 2009 movie. The opening and other parts of the movie made it pretty clear that Earth was a shitty place.

Wow, suddenly it seems like there are more people in io9 who are actually informed about important issues. Hopefully this trend continues.

Are you sure that China didn't steal that idea from the Papacy? :P

Goddamn it.
