Some people take their domino toppling very seriously.

The bird was shot by an exterminator with an air rifle while cowering in a corner.

Was the bird cowering in the corner, or was the exterminator?

"Some people take their domino toppling very seriously."


Dr. Sigmund Blur will explain this to you:

The sparrow was symbolic of the disenfranchised anarchists, the working class, rising up against the Have-Dominoes.

The elites in the building, the only ones in the story able to carry guns, defended the Bourgeoise status quo and violently put down the Worker's Revolution.

But the sparrows will storm the castle again.

Until then, though, "LET THEM EAT MILLET"

I just can't picture any domino setup that's worth a life. Even a sparrow's...

We can recreate a domino setup but recreating the bird is way beyond our capabilities.

[Though a good taxidermist could fake it.]

I wonder though- if these dingbats planned to bring a air rifle to a domino event in the first place, why didn't they think ahead and just shut the window?

[antmanbee]

do air rifles need to be licensed in the NETHERLANDS?

[antmanbee]

in U.S.A we would have used something with a bit more firepower...more manly.
air rifle like..Dennis the Menace

or the KATZEMJAMMER KIDS

Lesson learned. When playing with dominoes, always hire an exterminator to be in attendance.

We must more closely emulate our European allies!(end sarcasm)

I would think a sparrow toppling 23,000 dominoes is a Guinness book record as well...

Were these folks just selfish that they didn't want to share the credit?
