You're very clever subby, did you read the quote by Police Chief Brody?

He's not about to allow some half-assed autopsy and watch that little Kintner boy spill out all over the dock.

Well, this is not a boat accident, and it wasn't any propeller, it wasn't any coral reef, and it wasn't Jack the Ripper. It was a shark.

The problem with movies and TV these days is that they don't write scripts in which children are savagely mauled and eaten by animals.

i've had shark jerky and it's good. a little salty but good.

/umm...buffalo jerky is good too

 
buzzvert [TotalFark] 2008-04-26 08:33:59 PM  
Well? The shark's full. It's like the whole thing where people slow down when they see the cop's lights, who has pulled someone over. That's when you SPEED UP, dammit! He's BUSY!

On a good note, the Solana Beach area has some nice beaches and they might now be empty, creating more of a tranquil situation for me. Or, it will draw more people to see if they can get eaten also.

They don't mention it but the pictures of the guy laying on the beach, he looks longer then he should. Like he was bitten in half.

So I gotta ask... where did the "suck my diiiiick" come from?

 
Gyrfalcon [TotalFark] 2008-04-26 08:53:55 PM  
Look, white sharks don't actually eat surfers and paddleboarders. They're really hunting for seals. They take a bite of what looks to them like a big black seal, get a hunk of black neoprene, and spit it out, cause who wants a mouthful of black rubber?

It's not the shark's fault the guy inside the wetsuit dies. Stop being such a bunch of pussies and get back in the water.

 
Ryker's Peninsula 2008-04-26 08:55:10 PM  
If they bite you, it's because
they think you're a fat little seal.

Or a rich suit.

I was going to cop out and say I was drunk but then I realized that'd do more harm than good. But I appreciate your nod this a way on the "going to hell" bus.

Smoegasbord + surfers = Surfursbord?

Mmm mmm. crunchy neoprene!

Reminds me of that surfer girl who lost an arm to a shark and continued to surf after the wound healed.

kntgsp: I still don't understand why people don't wear bright orange wetsuits. Or something that looks completely different from a seal.

I've always wondered this. Does the suit being black serve any purpose other than getting your ass chomped?

 
studebaker hoch 2008-04-26 09:31:29 PM  
People would rather be eaten by a shark than advertise to every other surfer in the water "I'M A BIG ORANGE MAMMA'S BOY"

They'll stick to sea lion black and take their chances.

Japanese submarine slammed two torpedoes into our side, Chief. It was comin' back, from the island of Tinian to Leyte, just delivered the bomb. The Hiroshima bomb.

Eleven hundred men went into the water. Vessel went down in twelve minutes. Didn't see the first shark for about a half an hour. Tiger. Thirteen footer. You know, you know that when you're in the water, chief? You tell by lookin' from the dorsal to the tail. Well, we didn't know. `Cause our bomb mission had been so secret, no distress signal had been sent. Huh. They didn't even list us overdue for a week.

Very first light, Chief, the sharks come cruisin'. So we formed ourselves into tight groups. You know it's... kinda like `ol squares in battle like a, you see on a calendar, like the battle of Waterloo. And the idea was, the shark would go for nearest man and then he'd start poundin' and hollerin' and screamin' and sometimes the shark would go away. Sometimes he wouldn't go away. Sometimes that shark, he looks right into you. Right into your eyes. You know the thing about a shark, he's got...lifeless eyes, black eyes, like a doll's eye. When he comes at ya, doesn't seem to be livin'. Until he bites ya and those black eyes roll over white. And then, ah then you hear that terrible high pitch screamin' and the ocean turns red and spite of all the poundin' and the hollerin' they all come in and rip you to pieces.

Y'know by the end of that first dawn, lost a hundred men! I don't know how many sharks, maybe a thousand! I don't know how many men, they averaged six an hour. On Thursday mornin' chief, I bumped into a friend of mine, Herbie Robinson from Cleveland. Baseball player, boatswain's mate. I thought he was asleep, reached over to wake him up. Bobbed up and down in the water, just like a kinda top. Up ended. Well... he'd been bitten in half below the waist.

Noon the fifth day, Mr. Hooper, a Lockheed Ventura saw us, he swung in low and he saw us. He'd a young pilot, a lot younger than Mr. Hooper, anyway he saw us and come in low. And three hours later a big fat PBY comes down and start to pick us up. You know that was the time I was most frightened? Waitin' for my turn. I'll never put on a lifejacket again.

So, eleven hundred men went in the water, three hundred and sixteen men come out, the sharks ttook the rest, June the 29, 1945.

Anyway, we delivered the bomb.

Very sad. But humans kill far more sharks, as its always pointed out.

I wouldn't go out of your way, you've probably heard so much you could tell other people what happens.

Just a suggestion, if you do come across the dvd view it as a piece of film-making, not a movie. It's Spielberg at/near his best.

I think I am familiar with the fact that you are going to ignore this particular problem until it bites you in the ass.

I bet you don't own a tv either. It really is a masterpiece.
