- Amadeus2490, on 04/02/2009, -1/+53We're whalers on the moon
We carry a harpoon
But there ain't no whales, so we tell tall tales
And sing our whaling tune. - SilicoSurfer, on 04/01/2009, -0/+35I think photoshop skills would be really helpful for this article.
- cubs0110, on 04/02/2009, -0/+31It's now April 2nd.
- Astark, on 04/02/2009, -3/+28April Fool's!
- charm803, on 04/02/2009, -3/+27The internet has made April Fool's much more interesting.
- OnShakedown, on 04/01/2009, -1/+24my lamp runs on peep oil, so this is nice to see.
- nickaster, on 04/01/2009, -2/+24Thar she blows - this is guaranteed to work as peeps are pretty much the same density as whales, therefore it will play havoc with sonar. Frankly, they taste rather like whale too, so perhaps they could replace the harvest completely?
- Frozo, on 04/02/2009, -2/+16This sounds like a GOB plan.
"I've made a huge mistake." - Drakoi, on 04/02/2009, -0/+14April fool's is soooo yesterday
- Secret7000, on 04/02/2009, -2/+12Have you tasted whale meat? It's ***** delicious.
- Akairenn, on 04/02/2009, -0/+10You wouldn't see a Japanese ship open fire on them.
Those who lay eyes on a Gundam shall not live to tell about it. - pingpants, on 04/02/2009, -1/+10Twitter should replace the Fail Whale with the Peep Whale
- inactive, on 04/02/2009, -1/+10I'm sorry too, but you're creating a false dichotomy - this isn't a highlander situation, this isn't the wild west - there's no 'there can be only one' or 'this town is not big enough for the two of us'. We can live, AND the whales can live. Stop trying to confuse the issue.
- Auraness, on 04/02/2009, -1/+9Can't wait to microwave one of these.
- solboldi, on 04/01/2009, -1/+9Is there soy milk inside the peep whales?
- asgardshill, on 04/02/2009, -0/+7"they are uniting under the moniker PEEP: People for Everything and Everyone on the Planet."
For everything and everyone EXCEPT, presumably, Japanese whalers. - QuantumNighmare, on 04/02/2009, -5/+11The scary thing is, this is a real issue. Japan gets away with killing all the endangered whales it wants and selling the meat for, uh, "research". Like research into which piece of whale meat tastes the best.
Why hasn't anything been done about this yet? - Rugrash, on 04/02/2009, -0/+5I think 1 whale is worth 10 convicts on death row, 36 child molesters, 22 mexican drug cartel members, 1 Madoff, 2 Puff Daddies, 3 JLo's, .5 Ben Afflecks and 9.5 GM Execs
- seltaeb4, on 04/02/2009, -1/+6What's the best tuna? Peepers of the Sea...
- JasonCox, on 04/02/2009, -0/+5"Whale-Sized Marshmallows"?
Oh my god, they killed the Stay-Puft Marshmallow Man! You bastards! - soupdawg30, on 04/02/2009, -3/+8Dugg for Futurama
- bengringo, on 04/02/2009, -2/+6Not on the west coast.
- harrisonc, on 04/02/2009, -0/+4Next, they should try "Tree-Sized Marshmallows Planted to Thwart Deforestation" if this one works out. Same concept, basically.
- Larssonk22, on 04/02/2009, -0/+3only if its double dipped
- DP84, on 04/02/2009, -1/+4Peep Whale + Giant Microwave = Super Hiroshima
- unit001, on 04/02/2009, -3/+5Down with the pirates! Environmental terrorism is terrorism nonetheless... The seashepard will escalate and the Japanese will open fire, and God bless them for fighting back. You change practices in legislatures, not in international waters where YOU"RE likely to get killed. Who's about to say the Hippies are better sailors than the Japanese.
- Mav88, on 04/02/2009, -5/+7The Sea Shepards are retarded, I'm just dying to see a Japanese ship open fire on them for attacking them in international waters.
If you want to stop whaling get involved with the politics that control it and make it illegal. Don't ***** over workers who are just trying to earn a living when what they're doing is still legal. - thebeginning, on 04/02/2009, -0/+2At first I thought this was the onion, then got excited when I found out it wasn't because I assumed that meant it was real. Then I realized it was April fools.
lame. - jparkinson, on 04/02/2009, -0/+2I've made a huge tiny mistake...
- saylordani, on 04/02/2009, -1/+3You're either a retard for taking this seriously or have an awesome sense of humor...
- ryanonfire, on 04/02/2009, -0/+2haha A for effort on the website http://72.14.235.132/search?q=cache:-YLHBBg1XdQJ:g ...
- inactive, on 04/02/2009, -0/+2The same density? For realsie?
- meangreenbean, on 04/02/2009, -2/+4Do you eat a box of these after you smoke a pig sized blunt?
- GKang, on 04/03/2009, -0/+2Arghh thier she PEEPS
- inactive, on 04/02/2009, -2/+3Things are definitely going to go well.
- silverleaves, on 04/04/2009, -0/+1I hope this works. People do not need to kill every fricken last whale just to eat blubber or use the oil for perfume. Enough already. Leave the whales alone you wankers!
- Sinnocent, on 04/02/2009, -1/+2Inventive April Fools joke. Made me laugh.
- ziromix, on 04/02/2009, -0/+1Well played good sir, Kudos to you.
- jamdogg, on 04/02/2009, -0/+1“At first we tried making a Karl Rove Peep, but it kept turning out like that Emperor guy from Star Wars [the originals, not those crappy sequels],” - I think she was referring to Jabba the Hutt, who was in the sequels.
- Jayrune, on 04/02/2009, -0/+1check the date the article itself was posted, not when it got popular on digg
- ProfessorRiffs, on 04/02/2009, -0/+1Humanity's arrogance is intelligent?
- inactive, on 04/02/2009, -5/+5If you see whaling as murder, how can you do anything but take direct action against the people responsible? You underestimate the depth of these people's empathy for animals. To be fair, you're advocating shooting them, so it's not like we expected a lot from you, but still.

- AndySavage, on 04/02/2009, -1/+1Dugg for the PEEP acronym. There's something just so heartwarming about ruining the plans of douchebags with a little wit and a *****-eating grin on your face.
- b3astie, on 04/02/2009, -1/+1I wasn't trying to blur the lines. Watch Whale Wars. The crew of the Steve Irwin are throwing soap bombs onto the deck of the whaling ships. Walking around on a soapy deck with rough seas is extremely dangerous. No whale is worth a human life.
- Marijuana, on 04/02/2009, -1/+1They should just put surveillance cameras underwater. And when they see fishes and sharks and whales runaway, that should raise an alarm.
- phrawgh, on 04/02/2009, -1/+1can they count to three?
- nostarrag, on 04/02/2009, -1/+0I love that half the crazies on that site's comments think it's real...
- neonsox, on 04/02/2009, -2/+1Give it time. Those whack jobs will be doing something like this when they run out of stink bombs and grimy hippies to launch.
