mousetrap kicked so much ass.

Only if someone else set the thing up.

Could that possibly be any fucking cooler?

if there were a few dwarfs running around?

Good point.

 

[FKAGobucks877]

Yeah, and hippo guards to protect us from marauding midgets. Although, I guess, that's probably a pretty small problem. Ahem.

 

[RugbyBuck]

All gone!

Could someone photoshop a dwarf or a garden gnome or something in here?

 

[Buck Nasty]

I would love to hear the comments he gets from his hippo buddies when he shits that guy out.

"Jesus dude, what the hell did you eat? looks like you ate a friggin midget or something"

So did the guy die or were they able to cut him out?

They never said in the article.

I highly doubt that it actually happened.

Yeah, "Pattaya Mail" is probably Thai for "The Onion."

 

[RugbyBuck]

I bet the members of "the Lollipop Guild, the Lollipop Guild, the Lollipop Guild" beat the hell out of that hippo.

I didn't see anything on Snopes but go this from Urbanlegends.com

Hippo Eats Dwarf
Via Museum of Hoaxes, news that a dwarf named Od was swallowed by a hippopotamus in a freak circus accident in northern Thailand. Ouch! Supposedly, an off-kilter bounce hurled the trampoline performer smack dab into the animal's open jaws. "Vets on the scene said Hilda the Hippo had a gag reflex that automatically caused her to swallow," explains a story taken from the Pattaya Mail.

We know it couldn't have happened very recently — if it happened at all — given that the tale is listed as a "1999 urban legend" by the Darwin Awards folks. In point of fact, the story is at least five years older than that, as evidenced by a December 15, 1994 Usenet posting purportedly quoting the Las Vegas Sun:

An Austrian circus dwarf died recently when he bounced sideways from a trampoline and was swallowed by a hippopotamus. Seven thousand people watched as little Franz Dasch popped into the mouth of Hilda the Hippo and the animal's gag reflex forced it to swallow. The crowd applauded wildly before other circus people realized what has happened.
Note that in the 1994 version the dwarf is Austrian and his name is Franz Dasch. There's no mention of the incident occurring in Thailand.

If this isn't an urban legend I'll swallow a dwarf myself.

You were pawned? I'm sure it was for something good. Not just regular beans... maybe magic beans.

What are you trying to say? Are you implying I'm some kind of cow? Insensitive clod. If I needed this kind of abuse, I'd call my mother. :tongue2:
