Well… this is gonna suck.

And Blow!
I think it already does…
*giggle*
*snicker*
*m&ms*
sounds redundant, like ordering a “ham and ham” sandwich
That’s a good point. Why are they “m&m’s?” Why not just “m’s?”
And what’s with the blue ones? That ain’t right.
If you only have one left, is it an M?
If it’s upside down is it a W?
You need to turn it to “W” for “wumbo.”
I’m ashamed that I just quoted that.
I always thought it was a “3″. Hmm…
It’s obviously a Σ.
One ‘M for Mars Corporation and one ‘M for Murrie, Hershey’s chocolate President at the time. The two M’s allowed for Mars Corporation to use Hershey’s chocolate in their candies.
and yes, I had to look it up. but once you asked I just had to know, why the two M’s.?.
Well now I can sleep tonight, thanks wicket
They are called m&m’s because they are named after the initials of the 2 men who ran the chocolate companies that produced them when they were first created in WWII. the Hershey’s and Mars companies.
The funniest thing about this is the identification of the subject by a PK admin under the LOL: (A Tornado). Thank you, we weren’t quite sure.
Is not. That’s an earthquake!
That’s no moon. That’s a space station!
Random thought- it’s my goal to someday get to go out in the field with the crazy tornado chasers and get to be one myself for a day. Right now I just have to be content chasing hurricanes.
The problem is what to do with it when you catch one… Do you advocate ‘catch and release’ for severe weather events?
Well, if you kill a hurricane, you need to make sure you use it for food, not just for sport.
I’ve had hurricane before. Tastes like chicken.
OMG, we’re in the matrix!
Funny, the hurricane I had tasted like rum and fruit punch.
That’s just in New Orleans.
What would a hurricane over Texas taste like? Gunpowder and BBQ sauce?
With a faint aftertaste of picante sauce.
You know, I live in the outskirts of Tornado Alley, and I’ve been through my share of them. I’ve also been accused of doing some really stupid things in my life for which I probably should have died.
But if I go the rest of my life never having seen a tornado close enough that I can see the whites in the cow’s eyes, I think I will die content.
Ummm… Move to a country – or at least state – with more civilised weather?
If I live on the east coast, it’s cold and hurrican-y. South east coast, hurrican-y and floody. South coast is floody and dirty. Southwest coast is California, and no one wants that. West coast has earthquakes. Northwest coast has rain, earthquakes, and mt saint Helens. And anywhere in the middle is covered in either snow or ravaged by tornadoes.
So I’m screwed anywhere I go
… the US is just d00med. But we already knew that, the rest of us.
ohio – no earthquakes (besides little ones that don’t even knock the pictures on the walls sideways), no tornados (unless you’re way south), 4 full seasons and unless you’re in the snow belt, the winters aren’t too bad.
i unfortunately live in the snow belt so getting 3′ dumped in a 24 hour period is par for the course.
Chicago, baby! Worst we have is shady politics.
OMG, you are such a liar!!! We have crap weather, are you forgetting the 6 months of winter. Did you miss the two months of 60-degree “summer” we had this year?? We have tornados. The wind off the lake will freeze off your extremities in seconds. I love Chicago but the weather is “interesting” and challenging.
California is a very beautiful state, particularly the coast. Southern California has perfect weather, beautiful beaches, mountains, and desserts all nearby.
And earthquakes aren’t seasonal
Mmmm… I love California desserts. Especially pie.
Ha! Well spotted
We have quakes, yes. Though big ones are less frequent than in Cali. And they tend to be deeper, so less damaging. Though if the subduction zone off the coast goes off.. well I’m glad I don’t live on the coast, or downtown Seattle. That’ll be one nasty quake.
St Helens isn’t the one to worry about anymore. It’s Rainier. That baby is active, and has at least in the US, if not all of North America, the most glaciers for a volcano on it. The trick is, not to live in it’s path of destruction. Why people live at the base of it… I have no freaking clue. Like Orting, WA, which is not only at the base of the volcano, but built in a lahar path, with the elementary school first in line to be hit.
Though if Yellowstone goes off, chances of us getting buried under ash is slim due to wind flows.
As for rain, as long as you stay away from in and around Forks, WA it’s not nearly as rainy as people spout it off to be. Seattle only gets 4″ of rain more than national average. Buffalo NY has more rain than Seattle. If you want sun, live in Sequim, WA. Very little rain a year.
And with the exception of once every 10-12 years, our seasons are fairly mild.
I thought it was an active volcano!
It could be THE FOG! Stay out of the fog! There is something in the fog!
It’s KERMIT – there’s something in the FROG!
It’s KIBBLE – there’s something in the DOG!
It’s ROTTING! – there’s something in the LOG!!
It’s SNORTING – there’s something in the HOG!!
It’s SLUSHY- there’s something in the BOG!!
It’s BARF! – there’s something in the MOG!
ARRR, It’s a Pirate, there’s something in the Grog!
Win!
cough cough – something up with all the Smog?
It’s unsubstantiated rumour and innuendo! – there’s something in the BLOG!
tick tick tick tick- hey, can you hear that Cog?
Hahahahahahha, I love you guys. PK regulars FTW!
Eww- my cereal is sog.
Kirk-wants you to touch his Captains Log
Nice return, there BT. *dons tennis togs*
I’m terrible at tennis. I’m going for a jog.
OMG… it’s something unheard of on PK – Civil dialogue!

Oh, it’s just Scott Baio, everyone. No fears. OMG IT’S SCOTT BAIO!!!1!!!1! RUN!!1561!!!1*!!
Oooh … You’re gonna get Zapped.
“He wouldn’t have written “AUGGHHHH!” you idiot. Well, perhaps he was dictating?”
Dammit! You beat me. Thank you Captain Obvious!
And “Tornado” is written as though it’s a formal name. I like that too.
I’m suing.
Hurray for Me! I live in a place where there aren’t things like this.
damn liberual Tornado’s….trying to destroy america..
The Provoncial Liberal Party is trying to destroy BC – or sell it off to their friends ine piece at a time…
BC was a fine expansion, i think Wrath of the Lich King is much better, how dare the Provoncial (wtf?) Liberal Party destroy my wow!!
I kinda meant British Columbia, the Province; but I’m Lich King is pretty good.
that is I’m told Lich King is pretty good.
It is
)
-goes back to his everquest too- not better then echos of faydark…
Pfft. WAAAAGH!
What a sucky way to die.
*shrugs*
It’s the best I’ve got.
CW: That really blew. You’re circular logic is quite twisted out of control. (Holds head in shame of post)
At least you didn’t make a movie with Helen Hunt about it…
maybe it looks like an angry Helen Hunt licking something?
There’s a mental image I could do without.
Not me! Sounds kinda nice!
Thanks for nothing.
Is it just me or does the tornado look like an angry baby licking something?
sooooo…. neither “blow” nor “suck”…. lick?
Creepy … I see it. Giant baby tongue of DOOM!
That’s what finally killed the teletubies. Cute happy baby sun turned into angry baby storm and wiped out the entire set.
Dammit, I missed that episode.
*searches youtube frantically*
There’s no reasoning with an angry baby…
I’m seeing a turtle vomiting.
More like an angry ugly old man..to me anyway..
I see the Stay Puft Marshmallow man.
I see a sailboat.
*gets pummeled by William*
That’s the Hugo, MN, tornado from last year. I remember this picture being run in the local paper. It killed a little boy.
Wow. Then the caption is accurate. It really did suck.
Actually, it’s the Little Souix, IA tornado from a couple of years back that killed four boy scouts. I know the family of one of them…
Then I apologize for making light of their loss. I’m sorry.
“Beeee not afraaaaid…. I am the clitoris…”
Upside down, gray, and fully deployed. That’s what it reminds me of, anyway.
Grey is not the normal colour, if memory serves me right. Try dating live girls.
That’s racist against necrophiliacs.
Paraphiliaist?
No but yeah but no but no but yeah but no but … What would you really call it if people are the similar thing to racist but towards “unusual” kinks or philias?
Bigots.
Repressed?
I remember this tornado happening. Living in Nebraska it’d be hard to remember specific tornados, but this one actually took out a Boy Scout camp.
“You see a tornado, I see a chance for 500 Boy Scouts to band together and rebuild”
Somebody said this was in Hugo, MN.
Ooer, I sense an urban legend!
I think both of them are lying and this was PHOTOSHOPPEDDDDD!!!!!
And TOO SOOOOOOON!
MUUURRRDDDEEERRRRR!!!1!!!111!!111!!!!!!1
“Young Hamlet – Avenge this fowl and most unnatural murder!”
Shakespeare could not have said it any better.
Oh wait – he did say it…
Fowl? It was committed by Le Quack?
Most fowl and unnatural and feathered as in the best it is.
Looks more like the “Finger of God” and he’s about to give you the finger!
I’ll say…
Finger of God ” <—– it's a link, click it. FOG is the name of a band. The guitar player is one of my best friends. just thought it was relevant. plus it's a good song if you choose to listen.
i guess the link doesn’t work. pffffttt!
Good beat, easy to dance to- I give them a 92, Mr Clark!
God’s pretty good at doing that.
Nesting fail. It goes one post up responding to TheOne & No1.
Only if you point the finger first, I think…
Actually it’s not a tornado, it’s a wall cloud. Looks impressive though.
From the director Ridley Scott: The vortex, who became a funnel. The funnel, who became a tornado. The tornado, who became a wall cloud. The wall cloud, who defied an emperor!
Heresy! *Blam*
Oh, my! Where are my drums and cymbals?!
Da-dum ching!!!
I didn’t read all the comments cause im lazy, so im not sure if this has been said already, but isnt that a hurricane? I live in Iowa so i’ve seen my fair share of tornadoes, and i’ve never seen one that looked like that. Doesn’t mean its not one, it could very well be, i just thought it looked like a hurricane
So far it’s a tornado in Minnesota, a tornado in Nebraska, and a wall cloud. I see no reason why it couldn’t also be a hurricane.
It’s just also become a volcano!
…but just announced that it’s retiring to fulfill its lifelong dream of playing professional baseball.
That is not a tornado. That is a supercell storm with the potential to put down a tornado. But what you are looking at is the hail/rain shaft or possibly a micro burst.
Srisly, I think you may be right. Photos of microbursts are rare, but there were a fair few aircraft brought down by them before their existence was discovered.
Oi oi, folks. It’s NOT a tornado. And it’s definitely not from any of the places where people are claiming it “happened last month” as this picture has been around since at least 2008. See Snopes for more details:
http://www.snopes.com/photos/natural/iowatornado.asp
Not last “month”. Try last year, when it wiped out the boy scout camp.

What am microburst?
A microburst is a small, very intense downdraft that descends to the ground resulting in a strong wind divergence.
See, Google can be your friend if you let it..
Wow, awesome picture.
This was taken in my hometown!
Small town iowa, oh yeah!
