A lot of people in that thread have never seen Looney Tunes. If they did, they would have learned 3 vital facts about physics:

  1. A finger in the barrel of a gun will stop a bullet and cause the gun to explode.

  2. Gravity cannot effect you until you acknowledge that you are not on solid ground.

  3. Being crushed by a heavy object falling from a great height (think and anvil or piano) will cause to to collapse like an accordion until you are re-inflated.

These are basic scientific facts everyone should know in the modern age.

Everyone knows William Hanna and Joseph Barbera were physicists first and animators/cartoonists second.

Incredibly, they actually drew their cartoons based on observations in nature. The duck season/rabbit season bit commonly seen in the Bugs and Daffy cartoons, while exaggerated was based on true events.

What's hilarious about this is that obstructed barrels actually can explode into ribbons just like the cartoons. A finger might not do it though, and not sure how many volunteers you'd get for a scientific test.

Obligatory reminder that change.org has literally never accomplished social good, but it has made plenty of profit by selling harvested contact information and social connection information to advertisers.

[-] Professorozone@lemmy.world 22 points 2 days ago

This is so flawed it isn't even funny.

You need way more than 1,000,000 fingers. This is America after all. Even if you use all ten fingers, that's only like 9.9 million guns.

Love that you accounted for the fact that if you rounded up a million randos, statistically, some of them will be missing a finger or two.

[-] Professorozone@lemmy.world 7 points 1 day ago

Thank you. Nuance, you know.

[-] starman2112@sh.itjust.works 4 points 1 day ago

Yeah unfortunately the only flaw in this plan is that they're simply aren't enough fingers for all the guns

What about double barreled shotguns? Those are each going to require two fingers. I'm beginning to think the creators of this change.org petition haven't really thought this through.

3d print fingers then epoxy them into all the guns

two in the pink, one in the stink and one to stop you from shooting your partner

[-] JaymesRS@literature.cafe 48 points 2 days ago

One person even noted how kids fingers are smaller and most adult’s fingers wouldn’t fit in the barrel.. lol. That’s what the pinky is for, it’s smol for a reason, duh.

[-] starman2112@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 day ago

I mean we can simply let the kids handle the .22s, and adults like myself can stop the .45s and shotguns

The best part is them calling it a “shoot hole”

[-] FozzyOsbourne@lemm.ee 3 points 1 day ago

Alright, alright, the shurethra if you want to get technical

[-] jaggedrobotpubes@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

I like the sound of that.

You cannot block bullets unless you touch them first. See master Ken demonstrate: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/Nd_2DGPaQ4U

Tap, tap, grab, throw it back.

[-] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.world 14 points 2 days ago

I'm torn on this one.

Part of me is convinced that just putting a flower in the barrel would stop all war. Then I'll make sure to put it in my hair before going to San Francisco, even though I totally forgot the first time.

Another part of me believes that I'm gonna have to solve the problem by getting so high on red agave shrooms that I can't feel the bullet and thus become an invincible berserker. Might sack York too, if there's time.

[-] WillFord27@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

Is this a critique on lemmy

[-] BluesF@lemmy.world 13 points 2 days ago

10/10 callback to smooth sharks at the end there.

[-] Simulation6@sopuli.xyz 11 points 2 days ago

I think the important thing is to convince the person with the gun that the barrel will explode and kill them, not whether it does explode or not. That was what James Gardner did in the movie Support you local Sheriff.
