I like it. Make me an explosive baby Jesus launcher and I'll buy [+] |
|
|
These religious arguments all just seem to boil down to semtex. |
|
|
Exploding Baby Jesus. PLEASE! |
|
|
Hey B
People steal them where I live for fun and it makes national news. I
just thought this would be an effective deterrent. Its a way to make a
plastic baby Jesus even more special. |
|
|
And is it special when baby Jesus accidentally detonates in your attic during summer storage? |
|
|
Suggestion for title fix to read "Exploding baby Jesus
decoy" bun for the change. The thought of a real
baby exploding is a bit... well... disturbing |
|
|
// baby Jesus accidentally detonate summer storage? // |
|

Just remove the detonator, stupid. |
|
|
Rather than using a conformable, like C4, better to cast the figure
from RDX which has reasonable mechanical strength in thick
sections and is temperature stable. A few coats of flesh-coloured
paint would add to the durability. |
|
|
If the device has "hair", access to the trigger/detonator could be
under the wig. |
|
|
This is quite possibly the best Halfbakery Xmas idea EVER. |
|
|
[+] Yes, it always makes the news here, too. Quite stupid of people to steal anything, so too bad anything people steal couldn't explode!! It be worth it to have a hidden camera to see their expression! Instant Karma! |
|
|
Ironic and I think Jesus would approve. (As long as it
was a statement made in confidence with no news
cameras around.) [+] |

Takes some liberties with historical accuracy too. |

I have an unused smartphone phone you could put
inside the Baby Jesus Decoy. You can track it with in
3 square meters. Just blow up the building its in
once you find it. The decoy could be made of kevlar
so all you need to do is catch it when it re-enters the atmosphere. [+] for title change, thanks. |

The real baby Jesus was in fact explosive. He
expanded from well under a metre long to several
tens of billions of light years in size in just over four
decades. |

Don't mention it. It's the very least we could do (a quantity we specialise in). |
|

"so we put the decoy with the crystal set and waited. Sure enough this
jerkoff comes along and picks it up, I let my seven year old push the button.
You should have seen his face! Blood everywhere, his arm was off at the
elbow! AHAHAHAHAHAAA! He had to use his shirt for a tourniquet! and
when he picked up the phone to call 911 I was on the other end! What a
blast!" |

An explosive over 2000 years old is likely to be unstable. Not safe to handle. |
|
|
And that's why you don't teach your celestial father lessons |
|

Au contraire; if kept cool and dry, inorganic compositions such as
Ammonal are notably time-stable. Material recovered from WW1
mines in the Somme area has been shown to be only a little degraded
and still viable - and that was stored in non-optimal conditions. |
|
|
With careful blending, including additional stabilisers, and good
packaging, a shelf life of hundreds of years could be achieved. |
|

The problem with explosives is that it is not very Christmasy. I propose that instead the Baby Jesus be filled with beetles. Darkling beetles are small, cheap, do not mind crowding, can put up with a little bit of cold, and bite. They crawl into everything and they can fly. Plus it seems a more biblical sort of punishment for baby jesus stealers. |
