esb badgers

[badalice13]

how many people would it take to push over the empire state building if it was full of badgers?

[McNoodle]

Do the badgers have full bladders?

[Sasha13]

3265.

[defenstrate]

None, the badger would burrow under the foundations and subside it all on their own.

[defenstrate]

either that or bush would declare war on badgers and blow it up.

[Llamatron]

Sasha is right but it'd be another matter entirely if it were ferrets.

Tell you what else I did - I assumed that badalice meant American Badgers (or Taxideinae). We all know that Eurasian Badgers (Melinae) are much 'harder' than American badgers. If you used them I imagine you could do it with 522.

[Sasha13]

See what else I did? I misread the question and thought he was asking how many badgers would it take to push over the esb!!

How many people would it take? Ooh, gosh, loads. At least 5,879,225.

Ron Davies the Welsh (ex) politician could probably give a definitive answer....he's a badger expert, reckons they're around secluded car parks in the countryside (?).
Anyway, I reckon about 1500 of them should do it, if the wind is from the west, of course.

[markja]

when you say 'full of badgers' is that standing room or cram them in so they fill the space rather than just the floor?
also would it be male badgers or female? or a mix?
+can i have a bit of wot you're smokin'?
