Regular uranium is not radioactive enough. The horse will get cancer but not radiation poisoning. You have to use either enriched uranium or plutonium, or something more exotic.
I think mortn is unable to relate to the outcome (of giving horses radiation poisoning) being desirable.
Kinda similar to people who can't get the Joker's desire to "See the world burn", which is why they don't understand his jokes.
That's not funny. Radiation poisoning is not funny. The horse should have something you can laugh at. Like full blown aids. Contracted from an African prostitute. It should be riddled with it. Now that's comedy.

Actually, I'll also accept a poorly cropped photo of a device displaying that comment, bonus points if the actual content is cut off slightly and the background includes something that gets more attention than the actual subject of the image, like a severed toe just sitting there, begging to be asked about.

The resulting horseshoes would also be about three times as heavy so maybe there would be back pain in addition to the cancer

Wtf? Why? Is this a joke I didn't get?
Iheartcheese@lemmy.world · 76 pts · 251d
Can you think of a more efficient way to give the horses radiation poisoning?
ExcessShiv@lemmy.dbzer0.com · 22 pts · 251d
Having them eat something containing a radioactive isotope comes to mind...
turdas@suppo.fi · 18 pts · 251d
Okay smart guy, but how about when you can't make them eat anything?
Dalvoron@lemmy.zip · 31 pts · 251d
Like in that famous idiom, you can lead a horse to radioactive pellets, but you can't make it eat.
stiffyGlitch@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 251d
that's one my great great great grandfather used to say

You put it into the water trough, and then you take the horse to it

You can always get them to eat, I've never had a horse not eating when handfed...

Tell me you've never tried to feed a horse enriched uranium without telling me..

U235 pellets in an apple...easy peasy

Injecting them with it
Dicska@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 250d
Make them eat horse shoes made out of uranium!
ivanafterall@lemmy.world · 7 pts · 251d
Wouldn't a small nuke or dirty bomb work?
ReallyActuallyFrankenstein@lemmynsfw.com · 10 pts · 251d
Oh, sure, if your horses are all in the same place.
stiffyGlitch@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 251d
wouldn't that just kill them
ivanafterall@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 251d
Nobody specified the horse needed to remain living?
stiffyGlitch@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 251d
true
theneverfox@pawb.social · 3 pts · 251d
But then you use up the uranium. It's far more efficient to just attach it to the horse, then remove it for reuse
stiffyGlitch@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 251d
uhm... put them in a place with lots of radiation...? wait...why do we want horses to have radiation poisoning again?
Iheartcheese@lemmy.world · 5 pts · 251d
I don't understand the question.

I don't think anybody said it's desirable. It just has to be done.
Iheartcheese@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 251d
Gotta irradiate somethin'
jaybone@lemmy.zip · 46 pts · 251d
A horse walks into a bar.
The bartender says “why the long face?”
The horse says “I’ve got radiation poisoning.”
stiffyGlitch@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 251d
ok that's funny

stiffyGlitch@lemmy.world · 14 pts · 251d
ok but why
Venus_Ziegenfalle@feddit.org · 20 pts · 251d
so that the horses get radiation poisoning
stiffyGlitch@lemmy.world · 5 pts · 251d

GreenKnight23@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 251d
because fuck horses, that's why.
