Bah mine was better.

Geek tab?

This business will get out of control. It will get out of control and we'll be lucky to live through it.

/Second time's the charm.

AZtoJapan: Geek tab?

Already notified them

Occam's Chainsaw: This business will get out of control. It will get out of control and we'll be lucky to live through it.

Unfortunately, I think it might very well go wrong indeed

West coast farkers: do be sure to let us know if you hear a big boom.

I for one am shocked, just shocked at this news.

Weird that I'm not scared at all and yet I live on the West Coast. Wonder why that is. Hmmm.

Yeah, geek tab?

Drat! The Japs promised they would shoot it down.

/wonder what Obama's promised "consequences" will be? Hillary could wear a look-alike of Kim's pantsuit.

Activate missile defense!

FTA: North Korea has said it intends to send a communications satellite into space on board a multistage rocket sometime over the next several days

That's one damn slow-ass rocket.

Well played subby. +1

namegoeshere: West coast farkers: do be sure to let us know if you hear a big boom.

Ain't heard nothing yet in southern California, how about those of you farther up the coast?

Is WWIII here yet?

Tatsuma: Unfortunately, I think it might very well go wrong indeed

We'll see. The bird's already flown and there's yet to be a single smoking crater, so I'm not banking on anything outside of another strongly worded UN resolution that Kim Jong-Il is a doodyhead and he should quit being such a putz.

hudef: /wonder what Obama's promised "consequences" will be? Hillary could wear a look-alike of Kim's pantsuit.

Nuke 'em back into the stone age!!! Owait, the majority of the country is already there.

We should all pray for Omarion.

there are news reports that Japan denies it passed over their country.

I had something about shooting off dong's ....oh well

Occam's Chainsaw: We'll see. The bird's already flown and there's yet to be a single smoking crater, so I'm not banking on anything outside of another strongly worded UN resolution that Kim Jong-Il is a doodyhead and he should quit being such a putz.

I'm more scared in a "It's rumored that Kim Jong-Il is increasily sicker and will die soon, so he might decide that he, in fact, wants to set the whole world on fire".

Then again, LARPing Fallout 3 might not be such a bad fate either...

Mossed, KGB, CIA, MI6 even china needs to stop Kom before its out of control.

so wait...japanese are jewish now?

flaminglip: Who cares.

Kim is just waving his prick before he dies.

Japan alone could crush NK with very little help from us.

Japan has giant robots that turn into vehicles named Megatron and Optimus Prime. Of course they could take N. Korea on! My only question is do the robots cause seizures?

flaminglip: Who cares.

Kim is just waving his prick before he dies.

Japan alone could crush NK with very little help from us.

How do you wave a stub?

The dude is just ronery and needs some attention he's not getting from Alec Baldin or Matt Damon.

flaminglip: Japan alone could crush NK with very little help from us.

Assuming the Chinese simply watch the show. Last time around, they decided not to, and we all see how that turned out.

The really balls-climb-up-in-your-chest-cavity scary thought is that the Russians (or one of the break-away states) might still have nukes that auto-launch on the characteristic double flash, so no matter who slings one, we all get our comeuppance.

And the downside to a nuclear holocaust that wipes out 90% of the global population is that there are pretty good odds you'll be in that 90%. That, and the scarcity of bananas.

The rocket flew over Japan and landed in the Pacific Ocean


They missed by just that much.

If it gets past California, it'll wind up crashing in Texas somewhere, or Florida. So we may need to get the Florida tag on standby.

So where is it now? CNN's article is not helpful at all. How/when will we know if it is heading into space or towards a land target?

Nothin from the Washington coast yet....

I heard something, but then I realized it was just my coworker's fart.

/ok I lied, it was mine

See, I bet that if that's the case, one of the safest places in the world to be is most likely Africa or South America. Otherwise, you're pretty farked.

On the other hand, if you do survive, post-Apocalyptic chic never loses its coolness factor.

He's just compensating, he is envious of American missiles.

America...fark yeah
Lick my butt and suck on my balls
America...fark yeah

Dull Cow Eyes: The rocket flew over Japan and landed in the Pacific Ocean

If we get some good surfin' out of it in SoCal I will be sure to send NK lots of pictures and it will make them EXTRA mad...because they need to be an angrier country.

Uh-oh, I am sure Obama will go running to the UN. Oh, North Korea will be really frightened now!

Oblig

Sounds like that's the upside to me.....

Headline: North Korean rocket passes over Japan without incident

Without incident? It was the incident you idiots.

MSNBC is reporting:

The Japanese government said the rocket flew over Japan and its second booster stage had splashed down in the Pacific Ocean, indicating the launch had been successful.

so, that claims that it splashed into the ocean already

crab66: He's just compensating, he is envious of American missiles.

I think I've just found my Halloween costume for this year.

Yeah, but did you see Michelle touched the Queen?

next time, we have to tell them to stop in a stern voice, and use the term, 'or else.'

Tatsuma: See, I bet that if that's the case, one of the safest places in the world to be is most likely Africa or South America. Otherwise, you're pretty farked.

I'm not up to speed on my fallout dispersal patterns, but I'm guessing Caribbean islands, possibly somewhere in Polynesia.

On the other hand, if you do survive, post-Apocalyptic chic never loses its coolness factor.

That, and the pallet of Spam in my basement now makes me the richest person in town.

WHARRGARBL.

Can't wait to observe the 'dire consequences' advertised by the current administration. They probably involve an iPod loaded with 25 crappy movies. Obama is a farking tool.

darkedgefan: Uh-oh, I am sure Obama will go running to the UN. Oh, North Korea will be really frightened now!

Heh. Heh. Because Obama respects international law and foreign diplomacy. What a fag! Bush wouldn't need no homo Frogs to tell 'em what to do, he'd shoot straight from the gut! GO AMERCUH!

Occam's Chainsaw: I'm not up to speed on my fallout dispersal patterns, but I'm guessing Caribbean islands, possibly somewhere in Polynesia.

Well, of course, there's probably a few islands in the middle of nowhere, I was taking a more continental view of things

Occam's Chainsaw: That, and the pallet of Spam in my basement now makes me the richest person in town.

Pre-emptively getting your body used to radiation and toxic products so you stand better chances of survival. Clever. I like it.

You Idiots: Can't wait to observe the 'dire consequences' advertised by the current administration. They probably involve an iPod loaded with 25 crappy movies. Obama is a farking tool.

heh heh the election still burns

Was this supposed to be a test launch? The North Koreans said it was to launch a communication satellite "Kwangmyongsong-2".

The US, Japan, South Korea think its BS and just really to test an ICBM and not for launching into space. The rocket ends up in the Pacific. The article isnt very clear. Either the rocket ended up in the drink because of 3 options: 1) it was a failure and there there really was a satellite onboard and the rocket never made it to space; 2) its a test rocket for a later satellite launch; 3) test was successful and it's a model for later use to deliver a warhead at some point.

Did any of you farkers have an answer or a better article that explains all this?
