"Massive explosions have hit China's northern city of Tianjin, leaving at least 17 people dead and hundreds more injured."
the death toll may have risen since this, but you would expect a lot more dead with explosions so large

why are you laughing that's some serious business

you're damn right it's serious!
so serious that the chinese gov gave no shits about the safety of it's workers and had very lax regulation regarding hazardous material!
why, imposing such restrictions would have affected the bottom line!

Re: LOL CHINA
So just how 'big' is that explosion? Is that equivalent to something like a stealth bomber run or a small tactical nuke?

They must be out of smores by now, you'd think.
Humor ist nichts nichts Normales, also niemand der normal ist, braucht Humor...Humor braucht man nur, um von sowas tief in einem drin abzulenken, so dieses Gefühl von Unausgeglichenheit, diese nagende, kratzende Leere, die man so in sich spürt.

I think they're severely underreporting the death toll.

The thing about Chinese chemical factory explosions is, after you have one, you're just going to want another one 19 days later.

Now I'm going to have that Rasputina song stuck in my head all night.
That's a really nice comparison, Dutnis.
