Its an antimeme

Regular uranium is not radioactive enough. The horse will get cancer but not radiation poisoning. You have to use either enriched uranium or plutonium, or something more exotic.

The resulting horseshoes would also be about three times as heavy so maybe there would be back pain in addition to the cancer

Wtf? Why? Is this a joke I didn't get?

[-] Iheartcheese@lemmy.world 36 points 2 days ago

Can you think of a more efficient way to give the horses radiation poisoning?

Having them eat something containing a radioactive isotope comes to mind...

[-] Dicska@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

Make them eat horse shoes made out of uranium!

[-] turdas@suppo.fi 10 points 2 days ago

Okay smart guy, but how about when you can't make them eat anything?

[-] Dalvoron@lemmy.zip 9 points 2 days ago

Like in that famous idiom, you can lead a horse to radioactive pellets, but you can't make it eat.

[-] tetris11@feddit.uk 3 points 2 days ago

You put it into the water trough, and then you take the horse to it

You can always get them to eat, I've never had a horse not eating when handfed...

[-] datavoid@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 days ago

Tell me you've never tried to feed a horse enriched uranium without telling me..

[-] ExcessShiv@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 2 days ago

U238 pellets in an apple...easy peasy

[-] ivanafterall@lemmy.world 3 points 2 days ago

Wouldn't a small nuke or dirty bomb work?

[-] stiffyGlitch@lemmy.world 0 points 2 days ago

uhm... put them in a place with lots of radiation...? wait...why do we want horses to have radiation poisoning again?

[-] Iheartcheese@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago

I don't understand the question.

[-] jaybone@lemmy.zip 3 points 2 days ago

A horse walks into a bar.

The bartender says “why the long face?”

The horse says “I’ve got radiation poisoning.”

[-] herrvogel@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago

That's not funny. Radiation poisoning is not funny. The horse should have something you can laugh at. Like full blown aids. Contracted from an African prostitute. It should be riddled with it. Now that's comedy.

[-] stiffyGlitch@lemmy.world 0 points 2 days ago

ok that's funny

[-] stiffyGlitch@lemmy.world 0 points 2 days ago

what did the horses do to you

[-] notsure@fedia.io 1 points 2 days ago

...what is the best armour for our soldiers in their armoured vehicles?...horse shoes, fuck off...
