This oughta generate some bad puns.

 
Avertr 2008-09-13 08:11:36 PM  
That's shocking

 
Dallymo [TotalFark] 2008-09-13 08:15:59 PM  
I bet that gave the crooks a real charge!

 
Saborlas [TotalFark] 2008-09-13 08:21:41 PM  
Well, this is what happens when you go out after getting all amped up.

 
KickahaOta [TotalFark] 2008-09-13 08:52:26 PM  
Watt's the world coming to?

 
Durendal [TotalFark] 2008-09-13 09:31:39 PM  
Wow, that's anode to stupidity. If these buffoons can't conduct themselves civilly, then I amp afraid that it's time to throw the switch on these clowns.

 
Duck_of_Doom 2008-09-13 09:31:47 PM  
Ohm, how were they able to do that?

 
worlddan 2008-09-13 09:31:55 PM  
Ohm my God!

 
Sluggard Stone 2008-09-13 09:32:25 PM  
If they were kids I hope they get grounded.

 
worlddan 2008-09-13 09:32:31 PM  
Duck_of_Doom: Ohm, how were they able to do that?

by eight seconds!

 
not2bright 2008-09-13 09:34:02 PM  
On a related note, most accidents occur close to ohm.

 
RavingRaven 2008-09-13 09:34:52 PM  
I hope they get charged for this serious crime.

 
mistergecko 2008-09-13 09:36:52 PM  
Couldn't you just cut it with t hermite or something?

 
Epsilon [TotalFark] 2008-09-13 09:36:59 PM  
Joules? Damn, I haven't heard that word since I was in physics class in high school. Apparently it would not become an important term in my line of work.

 
CornFedIowan 2008-09-13 09:37:42 PM  
Avertr: That's shocking

Shocking? It's downright revolting!

 
freakdiablo 2008-09-13 09:38:11 PM  
I'm guessing there wasn't any resistance. They must have known watt they were doing.

 
YixilTesiphon 2008-09-13 09:38:39 PM  
Watt the fark?

 
HPunster 2008-09-13 09:38:56 PM  
I think it's revolting, worse than assault and battery.

oh...

HPunster: I think it's revolting, worse than assault and battery.

With the current laws, how do you think they would be charged?

 
ironrat 2008-09-13 09:40:44 PM  
Our infrastructure is being sold off for scrap and Darwin is not catching up with enough of these dorks, we need to have no limit no season on them.

Damn I wish I could make puns but it does not come easily to me, it is a curse I tell you.

 
Roger Arseways 2008-09-13 09:41:37 PM  
What sort of society allows good people to transform into thieves?

 
Bucky Katt [TotalFark] 2008-09-13 09:42:18 PM  
FTFA: "Whoever took it probably knew something about electricity," said Det. Lt. William Carroll.

He should be promoted to captain.

Unfortunately, we can't give them the electric chair.

Juiced wonderfully bad puns, guys!

 
EngineerBob 2008-09-13 09:43:33 PM  
Those guys were lucky.
Musta had an Angel on their shoulders

maybe even an ArcAngel!

 
KarmicDisaster 2008-09-13 09:44:54 PM  
Watts the matter with you people.

*it hurts to stick forks into outlets*

 
Seit_N_Zounde [TotalFark] 2008-09-13 09:47:32 PM  
Impedence in the ivestigation probably has the power company feeling shorted.

 
LeviathanFafner 2008-09-13 09:48:00 PM  
Who would have the capacity to do such a thing!

 
2bits 2008-09-13 09:48:34 PM  
they should conduct a investigation and see if they get a natural response, and maybe they would find who had the capacity to do it.

 
eff ewe 2008-09-13 09:48:45 PM  
Saborlas: This oughta generate some bad puns.

Ohm my God! The whole idea is reVOLTing. And yet users have little impedance to post more and more of them.

maybe even some sort of inductance to do so.....

 
FrancoFile 2008-09-13 09:53:20 PM  
The police will probably need a 3-phase investigation.

 
2bits 2008-09-13 09:59:59 PM  
the police are in a superposition considering their current source of suspects.

 
kermit_the_frog 2008-09-13 10:06:11 PM  
I bet this police force is unionized. Ironic then that they have such a negative outlook on the suspects.

:-)

 
dsclink [TotalFark] 2008-09-13 10:10:09 PM  
No one will be charged. With no leads, the investigation is static.

 
Phone_Answering_Monkey 2008-09-13 10:11:08 PM  
Coulombs!!

 
JonnyBGoode 2008-09-13 10:21:40 PM  
It never ceases to amaze me what people have the capacitance to do.

 
Lambeau 2008-09-13 10:21:58 PM  
It's good to see men reaching their potential . . .

 
droogmilk 2008-09-13 10:28:15 PM  
"Thieves make off with live power line". Police are shocked, no positive leads yet. Probably stole them for the joules. Electric Penis

FTFY

 
vudukungfu 2008-09-13 10:29:08 PM  
Wait, Watt?

 
jeffwashingdc 2008-09-13 10:30:20 PM  
Node to cell: Watt hour you do, don't fry this at ohm.

 
Farkomatic 2008-09-13 10:33:14 PM  
As long as they meet little resistance, this phase of their life will be over soon. The frequency of this type of behavior will decrease - a good sine.

 
SixCats 2008-09-13 10:37:17 PM  
Watt is happening to our court systems?
The coppers may have choked them.
But I Hertz they will get get off on a Valance of the Ohm laws.
Wonder if they'll just be grounded.
DNRTFA but did this happen in DC?

Yeah, I've been drinking .. a lot.
And will more now.

 
hetheeme 2008-09-13 10:41:03 PM  
***Insert witty electricity pun here***

//all the good ones were taken

 
joeyh1970 2008-09-13 10:43:36 PM  
eqtworld: Conducting this search will cause a lot of resistance and they have no current leads; but I am positive they have the capacity to field this case, once detected the thieves will be wrestled to the ground, then charged and insulated from societ

WINNER

 
LeviathanFafner 2008-09-13 10:51:04 PM  
At least no one diode.

 
Miss Smartass 2008-09-13 11:06:28 PM  
Lame puns are lame.
/I'm shocked that you people are so lame.
