Oh those crazy Koreans.

 
SwiftFox [TotalFark] 2006-11-12 10:06:07 PM  
And recipes for grass soup!

Oh wait, that's the other one.

 
Skwidd 2006-11-12 10:09:25 PM  
What fun is that? Nothing is funnier than Agent Orange and battery acid burns.

Isn't paper combustible?

 
Morlas 2006-11-12 10:17:16 PM  
That's not an article. That's 2 paragraphs swimming in a sea of ads. How'd this make the main page?

Lashing out the action, returning the reaction
Weak are ripped and torn away
Hypnotizing power, crushing all that cower
Battery is here to stay

Smashing through the boundaries
lunacy has found me
cannot stop the Battery
Pounding out aggression
turns into obsession
cannot kill the Battery

Cannot kill the family
Battery is found in me

Battery

Crushing all deceivers, mashing non-believers
never ending potency
Hungry violence seeker, feeding off the weaker
Breeding on insanity

Smashing through the boundaries
lunacy has found me
cannot stop the Battery
Pounding out aggression
turns into obsession
cannot kill the Battery

Cannot kill the family
Battery is found in me

Battery

Circle of Destruction, Hammer comes crushing
Powerhouse of energy
Whipping up a fury, Dominating flurry
We create the Battery

Smashing through the boundaries
lunacy has found me
cannot stop the Battery
Pounding out aggression
turns into obsession
cannot kill the Battery

Cannot kill the family
Battery is found in me

Battery

D'oh! I should've mentioned that's the song "Battery" by Metallica.

It's a soundbite. There's more information in the graphic than there is in the text, and that's still not all that informative. If one picture is worth a thousand words, that graphic has a value of about 154 millipictures.

 
Great Janitor 2006-11-12 10:23:42 PM  
Incredible...

Not the battery, but the fact that I'm at work, have a broadband connection and after five minutes the page still hasn't loaded.

 
Tom-Servo 2006-11-12 10:23:44 PM  
agent42O: farked already?

Maybe their server is powered by one of these paper "batteries".

 
comslave 2006-11-12 10:24:42 PM  
Meanwhile, most North Koreans don't have any kind of electricity.

Thank you Kim Jong Il.

 
Needlefick Bugducker 2006-11-12 10:27:42 PM  
Man, are things slow on Fark tonight or what? Let's start a flame war on battery revenues. I would say the Korean model is sub-par and has made quite the poor showing.

 
occasionalcontributer 2006-11-12 10:27:49 PM  
Yay! Now I can power my paper without plugging it in!

Werr, folget you arr then.

Last time the Koreans claimed they invented something it came out that they were full of shiat.

 
What Guy 2006-11-12 10:30:54 PM  
It's not worth the paper it's written on.

Didn't the Koreans once claim the world's tallest building, by counting the hill it was built on?

 
farkus888 2006-11-12 10:34:44 PM  
what can we expect for capacity? how susceptible is it to voltage depression? discharge rates? self-discharge? consumer chargeable? oh its made of paper... nevermind all those important things.

 
Skeevy_Bastard 2006-11-12 10:35:33 PM  
how do you fark a link with 1300 clicks, that server SUCKS!!

 
occasionalcontributer 2006-11-12 10:35:34 PM  
Needlefick Bugducker, that's just because you're a racist hegemonist. Korea's culture and technology is superior to ours; we just oppress it with our historical fluke of dominance. Note I say "Korea", not "South Korea", because "South Korea" is a construct imposed on them by external force; "North Korea" is the historical center of their culture and ought to have control over the whole peninsula.

PsychoPhil - Everest isn't the tallest mountain in the world, it's just the highest point of natural elevation. Kilimanjaro is the tallest.

1.1 mAh at 1.5 volts. Only suitable for devices consuming microwatts. There is a market for this, but it won't be powering your iPod.

They eat dogs. Did you hear me? Koreans EAT DOGS.

Koreans cheat at short track speed skating.

 
MoebiusStrip 2006-11-12 10:48:17 PM  
I thought it would take less then 10 posts for some driveler to mention the dog thing, but it took 30. idiots must be slow on the trigger tonight...

farkus888 2006-11-12 10:48:30 PM  
thank you Wrong Trousers,

sounds like I'll never buy one of these. just buy a bunch of shiat with them in it and never think about the fact that it has batteries at all.

So do Filipinos. What are we talking about?

Needlefick Bugducker:

Of course they do! It is quite obvious to me that you don't know the history of the Korean genocide perpetrated by the canine armies of southern Mongolia. The eating isn't for taste, its a symbol of the limitless resilience and ingenuity of the Korean people.

Asshat.

You say 'the dog thing' like it is casual. Like seeing a movie, chewing a piece of gum or saying hello to your neighbor.

"Say, I was thinking of taking a brisk walk this November evening, care to join me? If you don't mind I need to stop by the corner grocer's and pick up a bucket of fresh labrador. We can get that on the way back though."

 
Skwidd 2006-11-12 10:54:33 PM  
Sounds like CaptainJuan is a Korean sympathizer. CaptainJuan, why do you hate doggies?

 
outback_rebel 2006-11-12 10:54:34 PM  
Can you smoke it when it runs out?

 
PsychoPhil 2006-11-12 10:55:48 PM  
If you want something really bizzare, google for "Korean fan death"

It's gotta be a running joke, I can't imagine the koreans are THAT dumb.

/My friend owned a '91 Hyundai, after seeing that car, maybe they ARE that dumb...

 
Great Janitor 2006-11-12 10:58:53 PM

Dogs are a blight on our ecology and economy. The Koreans have it right, eat dogs.

Me, I don't like dogs, but I have no problems with cats.

OrangeWarp 2006-11-12 10:59:09 PM  
I hope this isn't as breakthrough as the Korean cloning success.

 
CaptainJuan 2006-11-12 10:59:43 PM  
Well, Skwidd, My great-grandmother was the only survivor in her entire village in the northern lyin-yan province, and she had to watch her mother, father, and brothers be eaten by dogs. She had a lifelong phobia of ground beef, red paint, and hot dogs. She died when I was sex, but even at that age I learned of the evils of the canine race. Pure evil.

 
Funkmaster Frank 2006-11-12 10:59:56 PM

According to Mel Gibson's character in The Patriot, "A dog is a fine meal."

Xbodo99: So do Filipinos. What are we talking about?

We are discussing battery revenues and their impact on the economies along the pacific rim. Let's try to follow along here, k?

And I hear their women have sideways vagines.

Great Janitor: Me, I don't like dogs, but I have no problems with cats.


At Yokosuka Naval Base in Japan, they sell a lot of corn dogs. there are also a lot of cats running around minus a tail. I put two and two together and stopped eating corn dogs.

Needlefick Bugducker:

You know what? Fark you. I don't have to put up with your moralistic preaching. New Guinea tribes are cannibalistic, are you gonna say that's wrong, too? Don't you understand that Korea is trying to lead the world into a new age of humanity? I mean, they're at the forefront of human cloning! Are you really gonna let a little thing like Rover hold back the development of the human race?

 
Skwidd 2006-11-12 11:03:41 PM  
CaptainJuan: She died when I was sex, but even at that age I learned of the evils of the canine race. Pure evil.


So your grandmother's home country was liberated by dogs? You should be grateful.

When you were sex, huh? Freud just kicked your ass.

 
SumoJeb 2006-11-12 11:07:10 PM  
whats the big deal about eating cat, dog and horse?!?!?! i just dont get it at all.
an animal is an animal when its cut & quartered
