Well that brought me down.

That's a good use for the irony tag.

So we know the plot to Final Destination 6 now?

/Was that wrong? Should I have not done that??

Add some Kahlua and turn it into a mudslide!

/so sorry

Well that should add a couple of days to the iPhone assembly queue.

THey were killed by a force of nature in school on a national holiday. If I were still a student, I'd bring this up in class on Monday.

Peng said the cause of the landslide was not yet known, but Yiliang was struck by an earthquake last month that killed 81 people and devastated several villages. In addition, rain has lashed the region of mountains and sheer valleys.

Yeah. Pretty sure the things after "not yet known" had something to do with it....

Biner		2012-10-04 02:03:14 PM

Is it ironic that the Irony tag was also buried in the landslide?

The evil that she does is horrifying.

Damn. I was really hoping this was Irving, Texas.

MBooda: Damn. I was really hoping this was Irving, Texas.

Their schools are already a disaster.

/sorry

wildcardjack		2012-10-04 02:39:11 PM

Are they going to be able to identify all the bodies? You know, since they all look alike.

MBooda: Damn. I was really hoping this was Irving, Texas.

There aren't any hills in Irving steep enough to have a landslide, apart from the lack of seismic activity. What's your problem?

Mock26		2012-10-04 02:44:40 PM

Is this still the primary school for the village? Or will they now have to use the secondary school?

probesport		2012-10-04 02:46:36 PM

Sybarite: Well that brought me down.

Even children get older.

I can't listen to that song in the car anymore. Been pulled over twice now only to turn the engine back on and hear "Don't bring me doooown..." I prefer "Mr. Blue Sky" anyway.

/not all that old
//your lawn is nice though
///do I have to get off it?

Badafuco		2012-10-04 02:56:37 PM

Someday you will find them caught beneath the landslide

Mr. Right		2012-10-04 03:00:06 PM

This probably sounds like a really rude question but does anyone know, within China's one-child policy, if a couple that loses a child to something like this disaster gets to have another child? I know that in most situation, loss of life is not viewed as a catastrophe by Chinese officials because there are always plenty of people to replace any losses. Families, of course, don't view the lives of their children twith the same callous disregard. Just wondering.

dustygrimp		2012-10-04 03:13:56 PM

May I be so bold as to make a suggestion? Farking move!
