      To be fair, the party leaders don't care about the people, either.
      Never really developed a taste for tequila. Kind of hard to understand how you make a drink out of something that sharp, inhospitable. Now, bourbon is easy to understand.

        As will be shown by the embarrassing, inaccurately low death tolls that will be reported by the government.

            Dude, it didn't happen to a country it happened to people. And don't tell anyone this post doesn't read as you're happy about it.

              Yeah but the people that died who have little to no influence over their government are our enemy!

Incinerated everything within a thousand. And killed via internal injuries most everyone within a few thousand. I'm guessing the toll right now is around 2,000-15,000 based on how populated that area is. There are huge apartment buildings basically right across the street.
                I was hoping it was in one of those industrial zones that are basically hundreds of square miles of warehouses with robotic delivery systems from rail spurs to docks. I remember seeing a map of one of them (IIRC the busiest port in the world) that was about the size of Brooklyn.

                  Uh, so this has started floating around the intarwebs.

                  Almost certainly a prank/hoax, but if it's not...

                  Edit: Ok, it's been verified as a hoax.

                      A bit of free publicity, perhaps, but Doritos is selling a special edition of its Cool Ranch chips through the It Gets Better organization's site. Donate $10 to the org and Doritos will mail you a bag of the chips.

                      It Gets Better is an organization dedicated to preventing GLBT teen suicides.

                          Volkswagen is in serious trouble. I can't imagine how the EPA is going to pimpslap them. They're like the NE Patriots of Car Makers, unfortunately for them the EPA won't be as soft as Goodell.

                            And the EPA actually a leg to stand on without fabricating or twisting its reasoning all around in order to decide upon its punishment of VW. The People's Car is going to be swimming in a river of the people's sh**.
