Those sheep would block so many turtle shells!

[–]daedsiluap 98 points99 points ago

And the image of sheep being hit by turtle shells will make my day.

Unless it's lots of sheep. Then I'll fall asleep at work and get fired.

Such is the sheep's power.

[–]Ozlin 8 points9 points ago

Now I desire a Mario Kart parody game with absurd items like this.

[–]PoliticallyConcerned 1 point2 points ago

When banana peels and lightning bolts aren't absurd enough.

[–]Msj2705 9 points10 points ago

Better try your hardest to never count people.

[–]CuriousAbra 3 points4 points ago

The sheep giveth, and the sheep taketh away.

[–]QWOPtain 0 points1 point ago

A better man than me could make a freakin awesome gif out of this.

Or have Link throw a boomerang at it like the Barinade boss from Ocarina of Time.

[–]tneu93 0 points1 point ago

The sheep is mighty. It can give as easily as it can take. All hail sheep as they now control your life.

[–]SomeNormalGuy 4 points5 points ago

Still won't stop those fucking blue shells...every fucking time. God damn blue shells

[–]QWOPtain 1 point2 points ago

Blue shells, not even once.

[–]thefresher 2 points3 points ago

It's been two hours, how has no one has made this a gif?

[–]funfungiguy 0 points1 point ago

For some reason it made me think of when Megaman uses Woodman's leaf-powers. Like, the driver could hurl all those sheep at the cameraman at any moment.

[–]Chicken_Mercenary 0 points1 point ago

This is sheer genius, but how do you keep DK from ramming ewe?

Blizzard leaks new talent for shamans in next WoW expansion, replaces Earth Shield.

haha, I was thinking it would be the perfect ability for a mage.

[–]Kowzorz 3 points4 points ago

Melee attacks done to you cause the attacker to be polymorphed for 3 seconds.

[–]Lupinefiasco 4 points5 points ago

And then every warrior rage-quit the game.

[–]Kowzorz 2 points3 points ago

No different than nature's grasp. I wouldn't expect it to be more than 1-3 charges on a cooldown.

[–]CannedBeef 36 points37 points ago

This is one of those rare times when I really want an explanation.

[–]PastaNinja 60 points61 points ago

Sheep are really dumb animals. One sees the one ahead of it going around, so it follows, the rest do the same. The one who was first sees the last one, and follows that one.

[–]Fhouse 32 points33 points ago

TIL why people call consumer society followers, sheep.

[–]Smaktat 4 points5 points ago

sheeple

[–]Voodoomike 8 points9 points ago

Same with ants, except ants follow a pheromone. http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=prjhQcqiGQc here's a video depicting said pheromone following leading to death.

[–]shanet[!] 19 points20 points ago

[–]nikeryen 4 points5 points ago

wow it looks like a black galaxy... of death

[–]Voodoomike 0 points1 point ago

Thanks sorry, forgot to change it.

[–]wee_chunks 5 points6 points ago

So what prevents this from reaching the speed of light then??

[–]ForumWarrior 6 points7 points ago

There aren't enough sheep.

At 31 seconds into this video, you can see the speedometer reads 10 MPH

Thus, the speed of sheep is 10 MPH

The speed of light is 671,000,000 MPH

To reach an agregate speed of 671,000,000 MPH you would need 67,100,000 sheep.

While I haven't counted all the sheep in the original video, It's fair to assume there are less than 67,100,000 sheep running around that car.

Due to it's lack of sheep, the car is vulnerable to laser strikes and other light-based weapons.

[–]Ozlin 5 points6 points ago

Friction, gravity, and energy.

[–]absolute_panic 1 point2 points ago

...so...one could tie each sheep to a generator crankshaft...then...infinite power?

[–]PastaNinja 3 points4 points ago

You'd have to feed the sheep.

They used to use donkeys to power the mills that would grind up grain into flour.

[–]Tofu24 31 points32 points ago

Nice to know that this has been reposted twice with the same title.

[–]ChronicMasterBaker 15 points16 points ago

Yeah, despite it's repostication, I thought the title was what made it and wanted to give words of aproval to the OP.

Well, not now. OP, you're a faggot.

[–]seconddealer 6 points7 points ago

[–]Doxep 12 points13 points ago

Woo hooo there's my post in this list! I feel important.

[–]serpnt 1 point2 points ago

I found it! It's the one referencing Dr. Mundo's Burning Agony ability. I personally think it's the most "original" one out of the other NINE.

[–]Doxep 0 points1 point ago

Thank you very much! I was very proud of that post.

[–]oobey 6 points7 points ago

This is why I no longer upvote anything. I get to take personal pleasure in seeing something I haven't seen before, while avoiding any possible blame for contributing to the repost "problem."

[–]Filmore 1 point2 points ago

"repost" is reddits way of saying "newfag"

[–]serpnt -5 points-4 points ago

fucking epic. too bad the movie sucked

[–]1337jokke 2 points3 points ago

Battleship sucked? Battleship was one of the best movies ive seen in years... i quess its just opinions then
EDIT: also oh yeahhhhhhh downvote for an opinion. Great job guys

[–]Khiraji 1 point2 points ago

I also quite liked it - to each their own. My only thought was why didn't they just lob a few shells at the shield generator? Knock out shields, bring in the air support, vaporize alien scum, go to the Winchester, have a nice cold pint and wait for all of this to blow over.

[–]serpnt -4 points-3 points ago

It actually did suck...WITH PROOF:

I liked it. why the fuck would i care if some crap site didnt? if im the only person in the world to like it does that make it bad for me? no?

EXACTLY. WHY THE FUCK DO YOU CARE ABOUT MY OPINION?

too bad the movie sucked

[–]1337jokke -3 points-2 points ago

im just telling you that other people have opinions too. i dont give a rats ass if you liked it or not. just expressing my love for the movie.

[–]Aschebescher 17 points18 points ago

One really has to wonder how this species could defy extinction for so long.

[–]Takuya-san 23 points24 points ago

Well we (humans) have been domesticating them for 11000 years now. I'm sure they were a lot better at surviving without help 11000 years ago but the current domestic sheep is bred to be easy to take care of and to provide lots of wool and meat.

[–]Ozlin 12 points13 points ago

I imagine time traveling and having some clever first gen sheep outsmarting me and leaving me in the past to die while cackling in the machine.

[–]lala989 1 point2 points ago

This doesn't have enough upvotes, I got a superb mental picture out of that!

C'mon, it's 3 months old and I've never seen it. Unless something gets reposted a few times a week, it's gunna be new to a lot of people.

A few banana peels or green shells should take care of those sheep easily.
