interesting photos explained

The riots were planned and started by a group of anarchists who wanted to protest the G8 or G20 summits earlier that year in Toronto. They utilized the anger and impaired minds of only a microcosm of Vancouver Hockey fans. What happened is inexcusable, but it rustles my jimmies when people think it was just because of a "hockey" game. There were police, civlian and news reports of several people with bullet proof vests, face masks and molotov cocktails spouting pro-anarchistic ideals and spray painting the "A" on walls.

I did not know this. Thank you for the information my good sir.

shit, we lost the game. Anarhcy up in this bitch!

still doesnt stop it from happening all over the place anyways. Riots like this happen far too often and that particular one i suppose just so happened to have Anarchists planning it.

the lesbian couple wasn't from any of those

Natural disaster.

well then

"There's 2 kinds of people"

Blame Canada

I am fairly sure that is considered a natural disaster in Canada.

what is he doing to the one on the right
sure doesnt look like hes riding it

I dont know what that is but it looks fucking awesome.

(In order from left to right) Plague, Famine, War, Death. Zeevalkyrie was correct in that they are the four horsemen.

(In correct order from left to right) Death, Famine, War, Conquest/Pestilence.

Oh well. I just thought that since death is said to ride a pale horse the one farthest right would be death, but I also forgot that pestilence (though I always say plague, nearly no difference that I can see) was sometimes called conquest. Thank you for correcting me.

You are welcome. I'm glad we could keep this civil.

Probably the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse.

Also, a gif for you to use in the future when you find other "Fucking Awesome" stuff.

"Sorry."

waited for half an hour to give this the 1000 thumbs and fucking dozed off

W're sorry.

to be fair...it was a very important game

to be fair....it was a game

that happens all the time in my hometown when ever the local team looses a soccer game..... not to mention that during the game itself people pee in cups and then throw them around........

Also, the one about the Canadian riot is incorrect. The official story is that they aren't boyfriend and girlfriend. The girl was freaking out, and so the guy decided that the best way to calm her down was by making out with her. Seriously.

Good move.

Yeah, the news people interviewed his parents, and his dad said something like "that's my boy alright"

DON'T HATE THE PLAYER, HATE THE GAME!

all of these guys look like Will Ferrel...

THAT'S NOT POSSIBLE!

We're okay with everything else, but if you mess with our hockey... you're gonna be deep in maple syrup.

moon....

Well you could argue that the Cold War inspired us to compete with USSR over the space race

fair enough

so ...many ...green ...thumbs

Wait . . . the moon landing was because Canada lost a hockey game?

You could argue that it was because of the Cold War. Both sides were interested in setting up a nuclear arsenal upon the moon as the ultimate weapon, but the first step in doing so is to land upon the moon.

I go from feeling feely to lauging.
Thank you.

And people still keep saying Canadians are peaceful

Eh, Sorry -Canada Day after riot

what about the last one?

4th from the bottom. Black and white athletes exchange jerseys as a sign of respect.
That makes 2.

what about the Apollo 8 pic? I mean, I guess you could say that's a result of the space race, that is in turn of the cold war... but the cold war was mostly a giant dick-waving competition anyways.

people did die in the cold war....

Sure, people die all the time.

Proxy wars aside, an American surveillance pilot was shot down during the Cuban missile crisis.

The end is, indeed, neigh

A Canadian team hasn't won the Stanley Cup since 1993.

Damn war , always causing natural disasters and shit

sorry i read it as ``famine, natural disasters, riots from political upheaval, death, destruction all being caused by war ``

I'm sorry

Many rioted when Los Angeles one a basketball game.

**christanych rolls 3,043** how many thumbs i dream to have :$

Canada didnt lose the game!


Vancouver did!

The more you know!

vancouver is in canada and if one of our provinces lose, so does the country

Eeeeeeeehh...
No.

There's no such thing as an anarchist in Canada. We're all too nice to do that.

That makes everything okay again

I went from close to tear to crying from laughter

BWAHAHAHAHA. the original is full of feels and this is full of funny.

Your not you when you are hungry.

I lost a friend because of this picture.

It makes me laugh every time.

ahh can I get the source for science reasons

<--also my big black daddy FW on your post

What the hell was it?

Holy shit, I feel like a horrible person for laughing at this.

Das Funny

I cried from laughing at this, but I didn't cry from the original picture

Wut.

I was mentioned in the aforementioned deleted comment.... which one of my horrible atrocities did he roll?

The one where you did that one thing that made him kill himself.

GOOD.

nice shop

Need a break?

This is actually EXACTLY what happens.

Tankman is love
Tankman is life

Very simply. They had become so massive that they became singularities.

Nobody knows the fate of Tank Man. But he was not arrested, not carried off, not shot. They had what they thought was his name, but he wasn't among the dead or imprisoned. To this day not even the government knows the identity or fate of Tank Man.

Hmm, also seems to be a Fall Out Boy cover



Waddayaknow

Not really a Fall Out Boy fan but that's a pretty bitchin' album cover.

accadacca mother fucker

FUCK

YES

pic extremely related

or you know...some photographer dressed them up like that and told them to stand there.

You're the guy who tells people Koalas aren't really bears, aren't you? Yeah, I bet you are.

save rock and roll

That one always gets me, you can see he wants to just let go and cry like any child would, but at the same time wants to be a man...

that is the strongest fucking kid iv ever seen. i feel like when his dad left he told his son "be strong, ur the man of the house. take care of mom until i get back"

You're amplifying the feels!!

MFW this pic

I burst out when I scrolled to this.

This image reminded me of my friends funeral when his mom received his Purple Heart, Bronze Star, Army commendation medal, Army achievement medal, and his flag. I'm glad it was a sunny day because sunglasses hide blood shot eye's even if they don't hide tears.

Perhaps because they know that if they go to war they will be able to liberate people and make it possible to live peacefully with their children. Also because they want to do a service to their country.
All in all joining the army is the most selfless thing anyone can do as it is a massive commitment. LOG IN AND SAY THAT LIKE A MAN

How thick do you have to be to not understand that there's a difference between doing something for glory and doing something to protect the things you love? If soldier's went out to war for Glory, then I'd assume you'd see their names plastered over the news like any Kardashian in America, but that is simply not the case. No one cares for the dead, the only soldiers that are given a shit about are the poor souls who came back from the war without their limbs and not a single one of their brothers in arms left, and the only reason why those wonderful men are ever talked about, is because of the fault and grime of the media, it's not the soldier's who go out and strive for that, that is not what being a soldier is about, and you will never understand that without being a soldier. Not a single person here can name more than 5 soldiers (bar their close family and friends), there is no glory when that fact is evident. I can't say I don't understand your statement, I see why you have this point of view, but the glory is just a stupid thing to think a father would do something so decisive for.
Our views on this philosophical bullshit are completely different, and maybe neither of us will ever see eye to eye here, as I know I will never agree with you, but the prerogative of a parent is to protect his children, and sometimes a father will put their lives on the line to do that, as that is the only way they can, the only reason you will never understand that is because you are NOT a father, I say that with an assumption, but if you fail to understand this while being a father then I was wrong that I know why you think in such a way.

However they also know that if they don't take that risk, there will be someone out there who will never have the opportunity to be a father because it is unfair.
People don't join the army for glory, war is the most inglorious thing possible. They go because they want to do what is right.

there is a special place in hell for you

enjoy every one of your red thumbs.

Oh god, my sides! I'll see you in hell.

The guy in the back... One looks like the extremely photogenic bum and to his right is a guy who couldn't give less of a fuck
