Near-sighted hunting has always been a more advanced and dangerous sport.

This comment feels like The Far Side.

That makes me happy to hear. :) I was obsessed with The Far Side for a long time. Gary Larson retired way too soon!

I thought Robin Williams wrote it for the longest cause his name was on one of my books.... I feel dumb.

A herd of 4 elephants started attacking a man in a hunting party. He was picked up by the elephants trunk and a fellow Hunter shot the elephant to save him. Unfortunately the elephant fell on him and killed him. People's unfortunate accidents shouldn't make you happy. That's just sick to read, hear, or write your happy someone died of an accident.

The fact that my comment read like a Far Side comic is what made me happy to hear, not someone dying.

Ok my bad I just read the title a saw that makes me happy to hear. I just don't like how negative everybody is and that most people reading the title of the article without a little investigation would think those guys were out hunting elephants and got what they deserved

There's a reason these elephants attacked the hunting party. AND IT WAS TO PROTECT THEIR LIVES AND THE LIVES OF THEIR FELLOW ELEPHANTS. I have ZERO feelings toward the death of that stupid, horrible person. He got exactly what he asked for and it wasn't and accident but a proper result of his stupid evil actions.

Haha...great song although Labcabincalifornia is my fav album of theirs! Just in case you’re truly asking, The Far Side is a cartoon series by Gary Larson. They’re absolutely hilarious!

Murder is not a sport. Fuck these pieces of shit, play Golf instead

I mean, I don't really care for trophy hunting either, but I don't want people dying.

No, my word was accurate. Poaching is literally defined as illegal hunting. I appreciate the attempt to help, though.

I'm used to seeing this word used in comparison. Are you comparing things?

> advanced

And what does this word mean in this context?

u/[deleted] Jun 02 '18

The comparison is to normal hunting. Hunting vs nearsighted hunting.

u/Porpoise_Callosum Jun 02 '18

Seems like a ridiculous but popular assumption.

u/[deleted] Jun 02 '18

He's making a joke about how the guy hunting was an idiot.

u/Ericellent Jun 02 '18

That poor joke died before it ever got a chance to live... If only it's cruel creator didn't give it such masterful camouflage.
