- Klarth, on 10/11/2007, -26/+576You must be new here.
- nixonrichard, on 11/01/2007, -9/+435Please help Wikipedia by adding images.
- MAdaXe42, on 10/11/2007, -14/+241@Klarth - you found this how? What kind of twisted individual goes looking for exploded animals?
- addrake, on 10/11/2007, -5/+149I really have to say you are all wrong.
THIS http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/***** is the best entry and illustration on wikipedia. - micropizzle, on 10/11/2007, -9/+149I don't understand how the anti-tank dog is funny. It's really sad.
- joel8x, on 10/11/2007, -8/+104I still think this is my favorite wikipedia page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/*****%2C_Austria
- demonotaku, on 10/11/2007, -10/+106I didn't laugh once. Guess I'm not cool or something.
- fantasticFlan, on 10/11/2007, -3/+70Some things are funny and sad at the same time.
Anti-tank dog, can't wait to see those in an RTS. - CanceledCzech, on 10/11/2007, -1/+65"However, in 1942 one use of the anti-tank dogs went seriously awry when a large contingent of anti-tank dogs ran amok, endangering everyone in the battle and forcing the retreat of an entire Soviet division. Soon afterward the anti-tank dogs were withdrawn from service."
I can only imagine it: a bunch of dogs running all over a field with explosives on their back, and everyone else running away in fear. - markopolo2952, on 10/11/2007, -1/+62My chem teacher in high school showed me the exploding whale sequence, with huge chunks crushing cars. Good stuff.
- anonym41414, on 10/11/2007, -1/+60"Please tell me how you are going to kick said ass OVER THE INTERNET."
I'm pretty sure there's a Firefox extension for that now. - tizz66, on 10/11/2007, -3/+60/me thinks thepumer commented in the wrong digg
- SlamShut, on 10/11/2007, -7/+64But mach32-- it IS the best Wikipedia category ever.
Accurate. - Hiki, on 10/11/2007, -5/+55http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Dog_mine.jpg
how desperate do they have to be to create dog mines? what a shame... - inactive, on 10/11/2007, -20/+69Not as interesting as this article:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_unknown_conspiracies - kevir, on 10/11/2007, -2/+44"Also see William I of England, who exploded after death."
- kcpwnsgman, on 10/11/2007, -3/+45http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-tank_dog
"Anti-tank dogs, also known as dog mines, were hungry dogs with explosives harnessed to their back and trained to seek food under enemy tanks and armoured vehicles.
...
The Hundeminen, as they were called by the Germans, had been trained using Soviet tanks, and would sometimes become confused in battle, only to turn round and run towards the Soviets' own vehicles.
...
However, in 1942 one use of the anti-tank dogs went seriously awry when a large contingent of anti-tank dogs ran amok, endangering everyone in the battle and forcing the retreat of an entire Soviet division. Soon afterward the anti-tank dogs were withdrawn from service."
In Soviet Russia, dog blows you up! - flxstr, on 10/11/2007, -1/+38i wouldn't be too sure about that......
us http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pearl_necklace_%28sexuality%29 fans would beg to differ. - thruyersternum, on 10/11/2007, -5/+38Don't worry, "eventually the Germans began using tank-mounted flame-throwers to ward off the dogs"
- enalios, on 10/11/2007, -34/+65anti-tank dog
HAH!! BRILLIANT!! - speedk0re, on 10/11/2007, -2/+30as a vegetarian, i find your representation of vegetarians offensive.
- stealth45, on 10/11/2007, -1/+26Do yourself a favor and listen to the spoken article for "Titty *****". It will make your day.
- tomharding, on 10/11/2007, -2/+25This is my favourite one. It's just strangely random.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_films_that_most_frequently_use_the_word_%*****%22 - Tracon, on 10/11/2007, -4/+23If you check the article the dogs killed more soviets than they ever did Nazi tanks.
- control7, on 10/11/2007, -2/+21It would be amusing...but that link led me on to read about "anti-tank dogs". And that's just downright awful. =(
- awesomename, on 10/11/2007, -0/+15"I agree. This is disgusting. Some idiot someplace will try it. They should take this off Wikipedia."
You're right. Lets take out all the bad articles. In fact lets take all the things that might influence people to do something bad off of tv and out of books too. We'd all be better off. - Fafnir43, on 10/11/2007, -0/+14You do realise that pretty much all of the examples listed are either concerned with animals that were already dead, animals that exploded without human intervention, pop culture references or bizarre military projects, right?
- afx1, on 10/11/2007, -2/+15this is the buzzkill thread...keep moving, people. thx.
- JoeDiggsIt, on 10/11/2007, -1/+14@ThePumer - Please tell me how you are going to kick said ass OVER THE INTERNET.
- angryundead, on 10/11/2007, -1/+13obviously someone never played red alert. (super dogs, anyone?)
- lemon67, on 10/11/2007, -1/+13Wheres the exploding shark from batman? ORRR the exploding octopus? comon
- mt066, on 10/11/2007, -3/+14If you hippies dont shut up I'm going to invent a kitten bomb.
- Fafnir43, on 10/11/2007, -1/+11It becomes funny when you realise that a member of the USSR's top think tanks must have sat down and seriously thought, "What could I use as a weapon against the Nazis... I know - exploding dogs!" And then a lot of high-level government officials agreed with him. It's like Monty Python, but in real life...
- minarima, on 10/11/2007, -0/+9"Monty Python's Flying Circus features a sketch with an exploding penguin. There was no visible biological reason, nor explosives; it was just eight o'clock."
- CanceledCzech, on 10/11/2007, -0/+9As a completely incompetent man once said, "Mission Accomplished."
- kittybit83, on 10/11/2007, -3/+12this is one unlucky bird
http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=9178614405521231539 - qwertydvorak, on 10/11/2007, -0/+9@JoeDiggsIt: like this maybe ? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mH_Sl_gk4ck
- bush, on 10/11/2007, -0/+8http://youtube.com/watch?v=1_t44siFyb4
- pagancollective, on 10/11/2007, -3/+11Don't be condescending towards someone/something/someplace when you have horrible spelling. It just doesn't work.
- catfish182, on 10/11/2007, -2/+10Dugg for the bat bomb and the anti tank dog
- fantasticFlan, on 10/11/2007, -9/+17As a vegetarian, I didn't find my vegetarianism any impediment to laughing at this. While some of these may be analogous to suicide bombers, some are not and animals are not people.
- Aokami, on 10/11/2007, -0/+7Thank you for enhancing the experience of my bowl of Spaghettios
- CanceledCzech, on 10/11/2007, -7/+14I guess so.
- excaza, on 10/11/2007, -6/+13"As an extreme prude with zero sense of humor, I find the term "exploding animal" to be offensive. After all, no one laughs about exploding humans (e.g., suicide bombers in Iraq)"
Fixed
How is "exploding animals" offensive.
And you obviously haven't explored digg much, we laugh at exploding humans too, there's even mention of it in the comments here you obviously didn't read
Some guy got hit in the head with a robotic lawnmower and we laugh at that too
Granted, I don't find myself laughing so hard that I'm crying, at most I chuckled. It's stupid, not halarious
Your post has zero merit, probably just like mine - Fafnir43, on 10/11/2007, -0/+7And the winner for the most gratuitous use of the word '*****' in a serious screenplay goes to...
- jklyon, on 10/11/2007, -4/+10As a carnivorous human being, I find your offensive state offensive. After all, not everyone is a vegetarian, (e.g., Me)
The great Digg user once said, "Go away" - speedk0re, on 10/11/2007, -0/+6whoa paydirt
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_films_by_gory_death_scene - Xinareiaz, on 10/11/2007, -0/+6Wow, The Bat bombs are actually a really good idea...A self planting explosive
- NiteShok, on 10/11/2007, -2/+8What a coincidence, I was reading about exploding whales last night..
- felidaeus, on 10/11/2007, -2/+7The next thing to make it to the front page will be "greenpeace pickets wikipedia front office, mother complains"
