Just for kicks lets have the people here tell me what they think the purpose of this video is. You know, like who made it and why it was made a circulated. I have my own ideas but won't say them yet. Help.


YouTube - Pigeon: Impossible

Looks like a moral tale of human race unable to keep control of it's own machines. Nature, including human nature, having it's assertions gumming up the works.

Author? No nukes crowd? They do make their point, but the case for discipline & vigilance is also made.

Thanks roys, that was cute. Not often adults can get by watching cartoons.

I hate to say this but I put that thing up for another poster here. I agree that it is funny and I did lose some coffee when I watched it.

It is funny in all its glory. I agree with you about parts of it but wonder if it could have had anything to do with the old and recent TV shows about Mission Impossible.

I do see what you said after studying on your words and contemplating the thing a bit more.

Great vid! I think the moral of the story is that donuts are bad. When in doubt, blame the donut.

Here's an unrelated video with a different story line.

I'm thinking the pigeon was a liberal, who wasn't satisfied with what was given him (sacrificed by someone else for him), so he wanted more, bigger and better ... and in turn, created more havoc than necessary to accomplish his goal and then ended up with what he fought for, only to have the mess he created take him out too. And quickly. While life goes on and it's business as usual and others are left to clean up his mess.

Would your theory have anything to do with the feelings of the left that say the ends justify the means? I think that may be just what it is all about. Thanks for the suggestion.
