So Whale Wars follows the misadventures of the world's most bungling whale warriors.
This season the Japanese whalers have really stepped up to the plate and befuddled the dread-locked near-do-wells. To keep the hippies from throwing bottles of rancid butter on their decks, the whalers have installed netting on the sides of their vessels, high enough that the hippies can't overcome.
Also, to keep the small rubber hippy attack boats away from their whaling mother ship, the Japanese have installed water cannons that can knock the hippies off their feet (the upside is that the hippies at least get a bath), or even sink the little boats. On top of that, if the hippies get anywhere near their ship, the Japanese pummel them with nuts and bolts, valve handles, and anything else they can pick up and throw.
The Japanese have also installed LRAD (Long Range Acoustic Device) on their boats which is basically a satellite dish that emits sound waves severe enough to jar and disorient you. They’re used a lot for crowd control.
The hippies have made numerous attempts to lay a length of rope in front of the whaling vessel to foul their prop, but they can’t seem to get that right either. They either turn the wrong way, let the rope out too early, whatever they seem to bungle it somehow.
I sympathize with the whales, they are awesome creatures and are supposed to be protected but mainly I feel sorry for them because they have these imbeciles as their last line of defense against the Japanese whalers.
I think we can put our heads together and come up with some better ways for these dirty hippies to foil the whaling exploits of the Japanese. They claim they use non-violent measures so I guess firearms and explosives are out of the question.
1. To launch the butter bottles, they ought to use one of those t-shirt air cannons. They could stay out of range of the water cannons and LRAD and launch them OVER the netting.
2. Have the helicopter hover over the top of the ship and drop the butter bottles on deck.
3. What else?
