Riot Foam!

Stumm Gas!

I think cruise ships should carry 30ft robot sharks that they can deploy.

No, but if you look at the chap in the middle they've clearly got a Happy Brian.

i was visiting a pal once, who was being visited by old pals, these two very nice olde retired age blokes who trundled around the world in a yaught boat thing.

they showed me the boat, and the very large guns they carried for traversing the south seas. apparently they'd left the automatic weapons with friends in europe due to uk gun laws or something. We got mashed & they told lots of really scary arsed REAL pirate storys. sadly i was too drunk to remember details. YO HO HO & A bottle of Port, & a box of wine & lots of whiskey.

Surely the top-right-hand corner of the diagram is illustrating "size of human to kebab ratio."

Or how a man is made to slide sideways when faced with the sound waves generated by an enormous kebab.
