What's that, about half the size of Rhode Island?

foo monkey		2012-04-09 09:27:25 AM

Are they trapped in the attic?

WI241TH		2012-04-09 09:43:38 AM

I can't remember is that more or less than a Brazilian?

From the sounds of the article, they have a good shot. I'll keep my fingers crossed, hopefully it has a good outcome.

Ender's		2012-04-09 09:55:38 AM

Man, that's not very funny

WI241TH: I can't remember is that more or less than a Brazilian?

If I recall correctly, there's ten Peruvians to a partial Brazilian, and a full Brazilian is just a shave more.

Oldiron_79		2012-04-09 01:02:03 PM

So how many millions is in a Peruvian?

I don't have any idea what you're saying here. I'm gonna need pictures or at least a diagram.

Hopefully the diagram would make more funny than subby's headline.

Nice subby. I'm still giggling.

Pffft... stupid remakes. This was way cooler in the original Chilean Miner version.

jst3p		2012-04-09 01:10:32 PM

Subby is getting shafted here.

I don't get the headline.

robodog		2012-04-09 01:19:51 PM

I just saw the capsul that the Chillean miners were brought up in at the Smithsonian. I can't imagine being in that thing for a half hour or more. I'm not exactly agoraphobic but that thing was smaller than most caskets.

Phony_Soldier		2012-04-09 01:21:27 PM

AbbeySomeone: I don't get the headline.

Confusing Peruvians with Brazilions

/Not subby
//Thinks headline works though

I think you meant claustrophobic.

agoraphobia roughly means a fear of public places.

WelldeadLink		2012-04-09 01:28:12 PM

What an Ika may look like.

trappedspirit		2012-04-09 01:28:53 PM

AbbeySomeone: I don't get the headline.

There's a joke I've heard about someone confusing Brazilians with a unit of measure, like billions. Now, you take that joke, and just keep stretching it until it's unrecognizable and you get the headline.

Procedural Texture		2012-04-09 01:33:50 PM

Nice meta headline, subby. I had a good chuckle.

Maybe they should have taken up a safer occupation, like flute band or something...wait, that reference was already done...

MontanaDave		2012-04-09 01:38:37 PM

Nine Peruvian! That's as much as Nine Brazilian. And that is terrible.

This would have been a good headline.

agoraphobia roughly means a fear of public places.

Claustrophobic is the fear of Santa Clause.

Agoraphobia is the fear of fuzzy sweaters.

He means arachnaphobic.

Agreed. This headline deserves to be praised, and the haters deserve to fade into Bolivian.

im guessing you've never agreed with anyone for fear of it not being an original thought. context on the internet must be tough for old codgers.

The best part is that there are 9 of them... or however that joke goes.

I'm very upset about what you said about my headline. I made it outta your mother's pubic hair.
