A post of a road…wait a minute..(7 Photos)


This is a waterway in Louisiana, and by the looks of it I’d say avoid the brisk swim at all costs. And don’t eat the fish.

    Dear BP….F*ck you…

    • The Knowledge says:

      Even though the spill absolutely had nothing to do with them.

    • Shane says:

      Yeah, it was all BPs fault, not the environmentalist assholes who forced them into 5000 foot deep water. If this where they wanted to drill that would have been fixed in a week. Anyone who blames BP is an idiot.

      • MiPo1977 says:

        And was it the environmentalist assholes who leased the rig?? Where they the ones responsible for the drilling, safety of the employees, etc?

        • Shane says:

          Well genius, we need oil, so all those shiny new cars can get around. So as an OIL company, they need to get…wait for it… OIL! I know that it's a man made evil, this black nasty oil, no wait, it's natural, but still, yeah, it's all Americas fault. I can see how a deranged lunatic would leap to that conclusion without any pertinent information, or… what are those called again.. no wait… don't tell me… oh yeah, facts.

        • Steve from the UK says:

          I don't really understand a lot of this so feel free to correct me and i'm not trying to defend anyone but why is it BP's fault? If I rent a car and the engine fails its not my fault. I don't own or maintain the car. BP didn't own or operate the rig, the BOP failed BP did not design, manufacture or have the responsability to maintian the BOP.

    Holy hell!

    That's a lot of sushi. Don't forget the wasabi and chopsticks.

  4. dajesus says:

    What the the heck are all those fisherman complainin' about? Looks like easy pickens to me.

  5. Beau Young says:

    Looks like pappy shouldn't have dumped his leftover homemade spicy jambalaya into the river after all O_O

  6. stefanhartman says:

    i thought fish oil was good for the skin?

  7. chrisdg74 says:

    Thank you BP, for ruining the Gulf Coast. I'm giving you the finger. Guess which one.

  8. poops like bunny says:

    They died…..all at the same time!?

  9. tommybhoy says:

    One of those crazy suicide packs?

  10. AnyoneForCoffee says:

    "Fish kills are fairly common along the Gulf Coast, particularly during the summer in the area near the mouth of the Mississippi, the site of this kill. The area is rife with dead zones — stretches where sudden oxygen depletion can cause widespread death. But those kills tend to be limited to a single species of fish, rather than the broad sort of die-off involved in this kill."

    • AnyoneForCoffee says:

      More: "Dead zones are increasingly common in the world's oceans. But they're particularly so off Louisiana, because nutrient-rich water and sediment from the nation's agricultural runoff travels downriver and is dumped into the Gulf. Various species of single-celled plantlike organisms flourish in waters enriched with chemical nutrients — organisms that go on to vastly deplete the oxygen in the water they inhabit.

      Many scientists have feared that an influx of oil-eating microbes would lead to more Gulf Coast dead zones, since the microbes use large amounts of oxygen when they consume the oil particles produced by chemical dispersants."

      • AnyoneForCoffee says:

        And more: "UPDATE: The Louisiana Department of Wildlife and Fisheries investigated this fish kill and determined that it was the result of low oxygen levels caused by low tides and high temperatures."

    …DONT DRINK THE KOOL-AID

  12. Jonathan says:

    That must smell like LiLo or Paris Hilton.

  13. equalizermax says:

    I want to see Tits not Fish!…

  14. SweetAwesomeness says:

    maybe they're all just sleeping?

    "Ms Watkins said low tide trapped fish in less than two feet of water. She added that hot water held less oxygen than cold, and heat also raised the metabolism – so plants and animals needed more oxygen to survive.

    She said the area where the fish were found is bordered on one side by a rock dam, and a shallow outlet to the Gulf of Mexico on the other.

    'When the tide is low, it becomes a pool,' she said."

  16. Spiderpig615 says:

    Guess it's too late for Godzilla to eat this since the fish are decomposing.

  17. BongPimper says:

    F*ck You BP!!!!!!

  18. Alan says:

    Bet that place smells wonderful

  19. andrea says:

    thanks to bp, i can never enjoy fish again without wondering how much oil is in it

  20. BeccaBare says:

    "That's what BP said! "

  21. miami says:

    Why does this happen?
