Looks absolutely pristine to me.

2. File that under "truth is stranger than fiction"... And yes, the water is beautiful...

3. They look JUST LIKE the rednecks that carry their guns everywhere they go, Disney included.

I wonder how many were moved by the sheer majesty of the moment and started making out like horny high schoolers. That does look like a romantic boat ride.

4. That's not a Navy. That's a Bevy.

27. The war is over.

6. Isn't fun against code?

Taking an RPG on the swan float may be OK.

9. Wait for them to start shooting into the air. Yeehaw.

I have no trouble believing these photos.

11. Is this from The Onion?

12. Those lakes are pretty impressive

They're dammed by natural formations of travertine rock. I saw them in 1978 and found it hard to believe that the dams weren't somehow man-made.

13. Substitute the headwear for NRA caps and it's just like America with prettier water.

14. Band-e Amir National Park

Band-e Amir National Park (Persian: بند امیر‎ a national park located in the Bamyan Province of central Afghanistan. It is a series of six deep blue lakes separated by natural dams made of travertine, a mineral deposit. The lakes are situated in the Hindu Kush mountains at approximately 3000 m of elevation, west of the famous Buddhas of Bamiyan.

19. Are those swan boats part of the weapons that we didn't destroy?

Brings back memories as a child riding in the swan boats at the Boston Public Garden. But my mother was very strict, she would say, "No, you can not bring your RPG.".

20. Your tax dollars at work.

[DFW]

21. Well, if it distracts them from blowing up 1500 year old sculptures

Sail away, ladies, sail away...............

[Zorro]

23. That was a terrible act of cultural vandalism

Those Buddhas were our destination on that excursion.

22. If you are going to be a religious fundamentalist terrorist, might as well get some fun from it.

It's not as if you're going to do shots with your girlfriend while watching Netflix.

28. Killer boot camp!

[Raine]
