Everyone involved should throw themselves into the deathpool and I'll be racing to join them in their industrially poisoned watery hell, op.

quote:The Siberian Generating Company, which owns the power plant that dumps the waste in the water, says the lake isn't technically poisonous So I'm guessing it's poisonous as all hell

It's a pretty lake I guess but I'm just in it for the toxic waste. BTW, the correct term is venomous, not poisonous.

This was the only good segment in Creepshow 2 so I'm all for it. Can we get some social media influencers to open up a crate that's hidden inside an old university next?

By eating increasingly larger doses of rear end every day I have slowly built up an immunity, and can now consume even the deadliest of rear end.

Technically my photoesque rear end is NOT safe for regular handling though brief exposure for recreational activities and your once in a life time photo-ASSportunity adventure typically cause little to no permanent damage

I thought this was gonna be about those "I loving love life" instagram people who fell into the hot springs in Yellowstone (and died, obviously) Basically I'm real disappointed that no one died or was at least disfigured

Edgar Allan Pwned posted:doesnt russia have rules to not dump in the water? lol. Russia doesn't have rules if you're rich, and that power plant is either owned by the state (and being used to enrich the oligarchs) or it's owned by an oligarch and being used to enrich the oligarchs. Basically, to enforce any rules against that plant, the agency enforcing them would have to have more money and influence and power than the plant owner. which is extremely unlikely to happen (again, unless someone powerful wanted it to happen). So no, they essentially do not have rules. There's a town in Russia whose main feature is a chemical plant and the environment is so toxic that nearly everyone who lives there will die early from associated health problems.
