It has come to my attention that recently a Japanese submarine was discovered off the coast of Oahu. Oahu, for you ignorant douchebags, is one of the Hawaiian Islands. You know, the place where Pearl Harbor is. Yeh, the one thoses sneaky bastards bombed.
Anyway, this submarine is no run of the mill everyday boat, it's a bigass sonofabitch 400 feet long, 40 feet high and 29 feet wide. Even more amazing is that it had three foldup bombers onboard that could be catapult launched. How they would ever get the planes back aboard and stuff them in their little hangers again is a mystery to me, though.
This is a real Jap photograph. They only had black and white film during the war, so they hand colored it. (click for larger view)
That picture you see above is what it would look like from the front of this badass submarine while the slimey bastards were getting ready to launch one of the planes. It's a little difficult to see, because I shrunk the original hugeass pic down to a manageable size, but those two monkeys on the left are knocking holes in the pontoon with sledge hammers in preparation to throwing it overboard. if I was the pilot of that plane I would be thinking, "What the fuck, dudes, how the hell am I supposed to land this flying coffin when I get back from my mission?" I shit you not, I would be heading below to change into my rubber chonies?
Do you know what they were going to bomb us with? I'l bet you're thinking they would drop some high explosives on our cities or some crap. Hell no? Those badass motherhumpers were going to drop plague infected rats in our backyards so we would all die a slow and horrific death? Those Japs were almost as badass as the Triad!
What really amazed me about this story when I first read it, though, is the "discovered" part. At the end of WWII we captured two of these big mofos and played with them for awhile until the Russkies decided they wanted to play with them, too. Well, just to piss 'em off, we sunk them both! That's right, we scuttled both of them. When you deliberately sink a hugeass submarine don't you think there are records of WHERE they were sunk? Huh? Huh? So, where the hell do they get off saying they "discovered" the damn thing?
That really pisses me off!
