The laughing cow did it...

[ZirconEncrustedTweezers]

Those crazy cows. Didn’t anyone tell them not to light their farts inside the barn?

[ZirconEncrustedTweezers]

Whoever smelt it dealt it!

[thackney]

Just simple roof vents, cracks, etc release lighter than air gases.

Manure pits, or deep beds of animal litter

That would seem a strange condition for inside the barn. Typically a barn is going to have humans working inside from time to time.

wouldnt doubt similiar gas concentrations in the ceiling of a particular Washington DC building tonight..

[red-dawg]

I wonder if one cow thinks that the other cow’s farts stink.

Maybe the flatulence reach the burner in the meth lab!!!

[NautiNurse]

Somewhere Mrs. O’Leary is smiling at the vindication.

Excellent! :o)

[NFHale]

At the first sign of flatulence, I would have...

...”HOOFED” it outta there...

In before the pictures of Hillary and Moochelle. (IBTPOHAM)

That just doesn’t ring true.

What was the amount of the insurance? Was the farm in financial trouble?

Bovine blasts and static electricity? Nah. Not buying it.

It wasn’t German Gassy Cows. It was the Cowsills.

Believe they sang that barn burner, German Gassy Cows.

“Moo...

[BANG!]

“...Mooo.”

[Average Al]

What are they feeding them used beer hops?

[TexasRepublic]

“Hold muh cud and watch this!”

[Tolerance Sucks Rocks]

Maybe the cows needed tons click "co-ordinating".

(They went partly violently to the thing.)

DANG!

[Slings and Arrows]

It doesn’t have to be vapor tight; it just has to contain enough of the fumes long enough for something bad to happen.
