And then we gave our Zeroes to the Japanese and boom, there goes Pearl Harbor!

Hey Ridley, you got any Beemans?

In fairness, the Lusitania was struck by a torpedo resulting in two explosions, the ship immediately listing and then sinking, all of which happened in less than twenty minutes. Not a lot of time for an orderly evacuation, especially considering the panic caused by the explosions.

Bassists: "When we press on a a string and poke it it makes a "BOOP" sound!"

Gosh, that was awful.
