Open the post for the album. Or don’t. I’m not your mom.
There is another way…
I think the important thing is to convince the person with the gun that the barrel will explode and kill them, not whether it does explode or not. That was what James Gardner did in the movie Support you local Sheriff.
One of my favorite westerns of all time!
Them: make fun of men by pretending to be dumb My dumb ass: have a good time being able to info dump
There’s a certain spirit of online debate about trivial or nonsensical things like this that can best be understood as happening purely for the sport of it.
just let them fuck around find out
too much cartoon babysitting
This is so flawed it isn’t even funny.
You need way more than 1,000,000 fingers. This is America after all. Even if you use all ten fingers, that’s only like 9.9 million guns.
Yeah unfortunately the only flaw in this plan is that they’re simply aren’t enough fingers for all the guns
What about double barreled shotguns? Those are each going to require two fingers. I’m beginning to think the creators of this change.org petition haven’t really thought this through.
Love that you accounted for the fact that if you rounded up a million randos, statistically, some of them will be missing a finger or two.
Thank you. Nuance, you know.
You cannot block bullets unless you touch them first. See master Ken demonstrate: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/Nd_2DGPaQ4U
Tap, tap, grab, throw it back.
10/10 callback to smooth sharks at the end there.
Maybe it’s less about the need to be the smartest person in the room and more about peddling dangerous disinformation?
This is literally how the Republican party in the USA functions, by purposefully being so brain-dead that we spend all our time explaining why they’re wrong and they just happily keep doing stupid fucking shit and expect us to protect them from themselves all the while.
It’s not funny or clever, it’s literally the same attitude behind conservatives trying to upset liberals. They would happily eat a pile of shit if they knew a liberal had to smell their breath. It’s fucking insipid and stupid and in no way is funny or cute or what the fuck ever. There’s zero ideology behind it except trying to upset other people, because they’ve got nothing the fuck else in their lives.
I don’t care if it’s a joke, they’re scum. It’s a “joke” in the same way “it was just a joke bro” comes from Nazis.
no, the finger would stop it
We can do this.
Because it’s smooth in every direction.
This is known.
The dude was basically engaging with an Onion article. You can’t save everybody.
Sure, but at some point you need to acknowledge that though you can lead a horse to water, you can’t stick their hoof in the barrel of a gun to stop a bullet.
If the barrel is big enough for the hoof to fit snuggly it’ll stop the bullet.
Unlike a person, a horse’s hoof will totally only fit in an elephant gun or a howizer, everyone knows that the elephant gun bullets only stop if the elephant puts their trunk in the barrel and the horse would need to be on a ladder for the howitzer. Horses can’t climb ladders, silly.
It’s called an elephant gun because it’s for shooting elephants. Not because it’s the size of an elephant. There is no way a horses hoof or an elephants trunk will fit in the barrel of a gun thats less than
an incha single freedom unit in diameter.But you know what will? A finger. You’re just going to want to shove it in their really good because those cartridges pack a punch.
No, the trunk will stop it.
Also, everyone knows elephants can’t shoot, so why would they need a gun. 🤔
Nah, the elephant gun bullet would stop because a horse isn’t an elephant.
You misunderstand. The bullet would get to the finger and stop.
But the bullet would stop though because of the finger.
I think it’s probably fair to say that suggesting that a finger in the barrel of a gun would stop a bullet is a least 10x, if not 100x, worse than the Nazis.
barrel
* shoot hole
No, the shoot hole is the face of the cylinder while the barrel is where they’re hiding the gun
Not pictured: Gun hiding.
Looney toons = Nazi misinformation
Sorry champ, you absolutely had it coming with these replies to your comment
Holy. Shit.
Website’s broken, could you google it for me?
Troll’s gonna troll
No, the bullet will stop them
this gives off “1 billion lions would beat 1 of every pokemon” type energy
I guess the guy didn’t realize he’s talking to literally Goku.
A lot of people in that thread have never seen Looney Tunes. If they did, they would have learned 3 vital facts about physics:
-
A finger in the barrel of a gun will stop a bullet and cause the gun to explode.
-
Gravity cannot effect you until you acknowledge that you are not on solid ground.
-
Being crushed by a heavy object falling from a great height (think and anvil or piano) will cause to to collapse like an accordion until you are re-inflated.
These are basic scientific facts everyone should know in the modern age.
Everyone knows William Hanna and Joseph Barbera were physicists first and animators/cartoonists second.
Award winning and physicists.
Incredibly, they actually drew their cartoons based on observations in nature. The duck season/rabbit season bit commonly seen in the Bugs and Daffy cartoons, while exaggerated was based on true events.
They copyright claimed it, so it’s cannon right?
Goddamn
Why are both of these so veiny? Also, why does the word veiny and both of these pictures make me think of dicks? Am I the inevitable perverted product of an overly sexualized society or are these drawings intentionally evoking phallic symbolism? WHAT DOES IT ALL MEAN?
You’re turning into a furry!
bogs bonny my man
What’s hilarious about this is that obstructed barrels actually can explode into ribbons just like the cartoons. A finger might not do it though, and not sure how many volunteers you’d get for a scientific test.

Obligatory reminder that change.org has literally never accomplished social good, but it has made plenty of profit by selling harvested contact information and social connection information to advertisers.
Maybe ssj14Goku can stop that bullet, but no normal person can lol
