Hilarious isn't it?

[RandomNPC]

Well i'd say food theft is one of the things i can kinda justify if you're starving, but if they flood the market with beef then the cows aren't going to starve. Yes it's a loss of proffit, but thats the way things go sometimes.

[Giggling Ghast]

It's not really funny (except for the headline). Theft is theft, and where I'm living, we've had a severe drought and most ranchers don't have enough feed for the winter. :smallfrown:

[Morty]

Yeah, I don't really see anything funny with it. Theft isn't particularily amusing.

[Gamerlord]

By hilarious I mean ridicilous.

[Dallas-Dakota]

So it would be o-kay if it was done by a cow community? >.>

When I read the title, I thought you were talking about the Hay people of ancient Armenia, also sometimes spelled Hai. I am a really weird person.

[GrandMasterMe]

Well it might be funny if they found the hay surrounded by angry cows with suits and automatic weapons....

GitP: where hay theft is taken more seriously than someone getting the crap beaten out of them with a hammer.

[Icewalker]

I'd say that describes the internet, not GitP. :smallwink:

Interesting story, and you know, theft is theft. I'm surprised at how cheap those gigantic hay bales are though.

[Warpfire]

Even for the internet, I find it amusing that the hay theft is greeted with three posts of 'serious business' while Hammer Time has been three solid pages almost filled with jokes.

72 years of ranching...
Talk about persistence; I can rarely stick to anything for 72 minutes. :smallsigh:
