[Zeema]

In Soviet Russia...

Damit I got nuthin!

In Soviet Russia Internet Cuts YOU

 

[The Night Shade]

That's awesome and very unexpected

Captcha:National Assult seriously are these intentional or maybe they are really stupid trying to be subliminal

 

[Pandalisk]

Goddamnit, this shouldn't happen as often as it does, remember that incident with a boats anchor severing some lines?

 

[kaizen2468]

I find it odd that all that was concentrated into 1 cable.

 

[BlumiereBleck]

Only in Huhrussia...would an elderly women be digging!

 

[dagens24]

Q: What does the internet in the Soviet Union have in common with the internet in Canada?
A: They're both ruined by gold diggers!

HEY-O!

 

[The Sane]

The situation is different here, but it just goes to show how vulnerable internet infrastructure can be if you manage to hit the right place(s).

"temporarily released for "old age."
Nice, I think i'm gonna wait until 75 to rob all the banks in the world.

This.

That woman should have been charged with property damage and a world record in literally hacking the Internet off from 3 different countries simultaneously.

 

[MetallicaRulez0]

They arrested her on suspicion of damaging property, but she was temporarily released for "old age."

This made me laugh really really hard.

You know you're old when the police feel bad for arresting you.

See this is why I think all such cables you be covered in a bright yellow and black coat with great big danger warnings, and a massive electric current running through them to kill any dipshit you touches them.

"temporarily released for "old age."
Nice, I think i'm gonna wait until 75 to rob all the banks in the world.

It's only temporary, so they'll put her back in jail once she hits 60 again.

 

[V8 Ninja]

I don't know why, but I find this hilarious. It's just so out-of-place for an elderly women to cut the internet in so many places.

In Soviet Russia...

Damit I got nuthin!

"In Soviet Russia, YOU destroy the internet!"

 

[Dango]

Apparently the internet is not shovel proof.

And three years in prison seems more than bit excessive.

 

[Ironman126]

Talk about 'data mining'
*snap*
There it is

You sir, are going to pun hell for that. But it's not all bad, Shakespeare will be there with you, so at least you won't grow board.

 

[Kelethor]

Damn it old people!

 

[Revolutionary]

Ow well, it's not like anyone died because of it. Seriously "well protected" ...Old lady in Georgia with shovel....NO sorry.
