Hungary Sludge Flood
 
http://www.allvoices.com/partner/ap/...gical-disaster

An environmental catastrophe! Isn't one of our users from Hungary? Well, how do you think this situation will progress?

Chocolate rain?

Too soon?

Dixanadu 10-06-2010 11:29 AM

It's never too soon to say what must be said.

I hope some stayed dry.

Yeah, probably too soon...

Dixanadu 10-06-2010 12:23 PM

No, they were burned to death mostly.

Dipstikk 10-06-2010 06:14 PM

Looks like Hungary...

*slips on shades*

...has bitten off more than it can chew.

Hungary used Sludge!

It's super effective!

Hungarian OWF member appears!

I've heard about the flood in the news, but strangely, there wasn't much emphasis on the sludge being toxic. I can even recall it being called a "landslide" instead of "toxic sludge flood". Also, according to a local environmentalist organisation leader, the area of the flood might become similar to the surface of Mars if people don't do something quick.

Now, they will either clean up the place or start planning a Mars theme park in the area. These are my guesses.

Ridg3 10-07-2010 05:09 AM

I'd prefer the latter, I'd go to that shit.

Dixanadu 10-07-2010 05:42 AM

Same. Hungary would make massive profits from the tourist industry.

Dipstikk 10-07-2010 09:33 PM

Self-edit: One joke was enough.

Mac Sirloin 10-08-2010 02:36 AM

It's not so much Toxic as...caustic? It's literally just itty-bo-bitty flecks of oxidized aluminum floacking around in the mud itself. It's not environmentally sound (at all), but toxic is inaccurate.

dripik 10-08-2010 04:30 AM

A local toxicologist commented that the radioactivity of the sludge is insignificant, but if these oxidized bits of iron, aluminium and such get absorbed through your skin, you might end up with some sort of damage done to your neural system, or kidney failure.

So yeah, it might not be a good basis for a Fallout theme park, but it certainly is damage enough to the area.

Condolences to the Hungarians caught up in this mess (yes, I am the first to say so) let's hope this is cleared up, hey, at least Barrack Obama can point at this as Britain's fault some how, y'know, to cover up how much of a redundant president he is XD

Dixanadu 10-08-2010 07:26 AM

Death toll has risen to six. SIX!

Tampon factory went out of business? :tard:

The man on the right shields himself from the smell of children that weren't meant to be.

Why would a tampon factory make used tampons?

Dixanadu 10-09-2010 07:24 AM

For comedic purposes of the pranking variety, one would assume.

Better question: Since when were tampons used to keep oxidized aluminum mud in check?

Dynamithix 10-09-2010 08:17 AM

According to some news report in here Finland, there is a high possibility of a new leak of that acid shit. Hope not. :S

Dixanadu 10-09-2010 11:45 AM

Just get a big sponge.

Sorted.

Ridg3 10-09-2010 11:52 AM

It's all well and good to laugh at the sludge spill disaster in Hungary but has anyone ever considered that we may be facing a similar thing if anyone ever gives Susan Boyle an orgasm?

Dixanadu 10-09-2010 12:01 PM

I CAN'T UNTHINK IT

Dynamithix 10-09-2010 12:38 PM

Huh. I must have had a bug up my ass those days I posted.

I withdraw my idiotic jokes.
