Thermobaric Bomb Destroys Hobbit Hole

Thermobaric Bomb Destroys Hobbit Hole

In a shocking development from Down Under, New Zealand's Air Force today used a thermobaric bomb to destroy the "Hobbit Hole" recently dug in Wellington.

In a statement, the acting NZ Defence Minister, known simply as "GuillermoX", said "The Ministry hopes this will serve as a warning to all those who build such caves to conceal the terrorists in our country."
He added, "Can anyone else look at the sun and see anything?"

Carl Gifford, a stonemason from Wellington, says he used a 10-tonne digger to make the hole.
Claims Mr Gifford, "I just got done building the chimney and lantern on top! I wasn't hurting anybody, honestly!"

The house was a part of a series of stonework mounds, designs and sculptures dotted around his land, until they were all destroyed this evening.

Mr Gifford was reported to have barely escaped through a dimensional door with his life.
The fate of any Hobbits, Orcs, Elves, moose, cheese lovers, alien pirates or even terrorists who did not escape the Hole is currently unknown.
Lord of the Rings fans were reportedly NOT amused.

Disclaimer:
Moderators and FReepers,
This is HUMOR. Humor-impaired LOTR fans should stay in their Hobbit Hole.
Further, GuillermoX has not endorsed this thread in any way.
Please do not flame Constitution Day. He is only joking.
He is only having a bit of fun and does not want to kill the Hobbit Hole thread...
maybe just injure it a little.

I'm am so glad someone had the gumption to finally get rid of that hobbit hole.

As soon as you blow up [plug] one hobbit hole, another one pops up in the next valley...

Sometimes you actually get an eruption of hobbit magma if another hole isnt opened right away...

That's entirely OK...

Heh...somehow they remind me of that ghost gif that went around awhile back...where you were supposed to look for a ghost in a photograph, and then just when you thought you had it spotted in a corner, a person all in white would pop up and run through - make you jump!

That thing got me bad first time through.

Thank you sir.

I have to wonder if today’s Porkulus spending bill authorizes more thermobaric bombs... ;)

Thermobaric bombs vs. delaying the wall for a year.

I’ll take that trade.
