This dam will stand, Everlong.
I hope the Foos don't ever Breakout.
If the dam breaks those villagers are gonna have to learn to fly.
Better Learn to Fly though, just in case
You have my monkey wrench
And they did all of this while being a bunch of plankton inside a dead girl
Sometimes it takes a bunch of real aquatic microorganisms to be best girl
They built a dam for no other reason than to block the river so they could build a city in the river bed.
That's 1000iq city planning
Weeellll tek-nik-uh-lee they might have built a town along the banks of a small river, dammed the valley blocking the river, and then filled in the old riverbed. But either way yeah those guys are dumb for staying there.
I pity the Foo
This meme template is gold. I haven't seen it before.
My first thought was why would you put a town at the bottom of a dam like that? And then I remembered that I grew up in a small town under a dam. That dam was on a fault line.
'Cause the town came first. Town was built on the original river, which was later dammed for power/water reservoir for said town.
Yikes!
I admire the city planners’ confidence (or ignorance).
People always said that the dam could support double the most severe earthquake that the fault could produce, but who knows how true that is.
Exactly. No matter how good or bad the odds are, that statement isn’t instilling confidence.
At least Saruman was smart enough to just live in a big old tower incease it ever were to break.
Mentone?
Nope, not that one.
I am so confused..
I wanna swim in the watershed
what about bar?
It's a high bar
