Why am I reminded of that Bugs Bunny cartoon where Yosemity Sam leaves a trail of gunpowder behind him, which Bugs lights on fire, causing Sam to go up in a big explosion?

Nothing says failing economy like stealing bags of rice to feed your family. The only people who ought to be charged in that crime are the heads of state of a country who let people starve in poverty while they eat high on the hog, so to speak.

Didn't Bugs do that to Wile E Coyote with a gunpowder laced carrot?

The TV and tricycle are just to entertain and exercise your family too.

Now let's say my family doesn't like bread, but likes cigarettes..

Yes you can, that's the beauty of it.

I wonder if they seized the stolen rice from the probably-starving families.

That'll teach them.

Make sure you all keep your butts well out of sight.

It is a pretty ugly tag. Every other goddamn article on FARK qualifies. I think better advice would be to steal something more valuable, or just don't steal

 
sunami 2008-08-31 03:14:19 PM  
Fark you FAIL tag. DUMBASS would suffice here. FAIL tag should only be used in instances of clear and decisive failure, and only if the story is accompanied by an appropriate fail-worthy pic. Otherwise, keep the FAIL tag locked up like the gimp.

It was feeling unused... first time today. But yeah, Dumbass would have been much better.

Pretty sad. I hope their kids (who the tricycle was for) are ok through this.

I dunno, Dumbass for stealing rice, Fail for not noticing you're leaking a rice trail and getting caught. FAIL transcends DUMBASS

Manila is a dirt-poor third-world hell-hole. Any place where people have to steal BAGS OF RICE is pretty tragic.

Unexpected. Very nice.

Wrong. FAIL only pertains to the event in question. The DUMBASS was most likely a DUMBASS before the event, and will continue to be a DUMBASS long after the event. (Unless, of course, the DUMBASS is a Darwin Award winner.)

the FAIL tag sucks and wreaks of copycat, wannabe trendster, mindless poser sheeple gayness.

Dumbass tag would more than suffice.

Dumbass tag wreaks havoc on sheeple gayness? Dumbass tag is Baaaadass.

Too bad it wasn't gunpowder. Police could have lit the trail.

My first thought was "dumbass", then I saw the "fail" tag. I didn't even know there was a "fail" tag until now. Out of touch, I have been.

The thief should have stolen the rice after a heavy snow. That way, the white rice would have blended in with the white snow and there would have been no obvious trail for the police to follow. Moran!

This is why, whenever I'm robbin' a place, I always grab me something from the fridge.

It was in the Pillipines.

They jumped out and said, "PREEZE, YOU PUCKING TEEP! YOU'RE PINISHED!"
