It's official. I've now seen everything.

As many Dopers may recall, the late Princess of Wales spent a lot of her time working on the problem of abandoned minefields. While I never agreed with her proposed solution: outlawing mines; I also never doubted the real human costs of abandoned minefields.

So, then there’s this story, which is making me giggle like a loon.

Only in the Falklands. Only there. :smiley:

That’s a special kind of stupid. Who sees a fence that has a ‘Danger Mines’ sign and then promptly jumps over?

Darwinian. Of course.
“What do you mean I can’t kill 'em? It’s Tourist Season, ain’t it?”

Sheep are mentioned more than once. Does Hal have a summer place there?

Maybe they thought the sign was put there by someone claiming to own the penguins?

Danger, mine! Get it? sigh

I’m nominating this for sentence of the year :smiley:

Someone at PETA is bound to get the wrong idea from this…

Mine your manors.

really? have you seen a man eat his own head?

You know, they make a “Mineburner UXO” that combines Oxygen with LPG to provide a high temperature cutting flame that burns through the case of a landmine and ignites the contents. The High Explosive main charge will not detonate through heat and will burn out. You can utilize this device while wearing Safety Minefield shoes.

It is my understanding that these devices can be purchased on the internet in some manner.

We can not have a mined penguin habitat gap!

Well, there was that one cannibal murder in Germany, IIRC. Among other things, the murderer cut off the victim’s tallywhacker, cooked and shared it with the victim before continuing.

Or is that not what you mean? :stuck_out_tongue:

Rabbit season!
Duck season!
Rabbit season!
Duck season!
Rabbit season!
Elmer season!?

In homage to this thread. :slight_smile:
