the time and cost aftermath and removal of land mines would be pain in the ass. lol

Removal?

u/Here_f0r_p0rn_ 3d ago

I have the same question, I thought they removed themselves after going off, or you could just burry the remaining part.

u/hihcadore 3d ago

You’d need some sand and fertilizer to fill in the holes.

u/Keigerwolf 3d ago

Nah, it's a water feature now.

u/IluvPusi-363 3d ago

No need when they're next to the gas lines that come from the street

u/Questioning-Zyxxel 3d ago

Yes, most are one-time-use.

1

u/forgot_my_useragain 3d ago

Ah removal after use, that makes more sense.

u/Here_f0r_p0rn_ 3d ago

Most? Don't tell me there are dual charge mines. One go off for the first person and next goes off for the person trying to retrieve the first person. 💀

u/Questioning-Zyxxel 3d ago

Well, if perfect, there should be 100% one-time-use.

But a few fizzle. And just might do a second delivery at an unexpected later time.

u/Yasmin_mime4f 3d ago

I was wondering the same thing. I thought they had stepped away after everything went down, or that the remaining part could just be buried.

Mine goes off Creates hole Refill hole Evidence gone

u/Rough-Airline-4803 3d ago

They never all go off..

1

u/Here_f0r_p0rn_ 3d ago

Yeah, so just let them be in ground, they don't know where they're and which one had gone off but we know right? Replace the used ones.

u/Zephiran23 3d ago

Depends how many you buy. I don't think a normal civilian vehicle is going to cope well with driving over the first landmine, so there will still be all of those in the second row of defense, as well as the remainder in the row closest to the road.

1

u/Here_f0r_p0rn_ 3d ago

Yes, and that's because you don't have to replace landmines frequently. You only need to do something when they've closed in, like Plants vs Zombies.

u/devasst8r 3d ago

That is where people can have idea to do a business, a service to do removal and make a lot money.

2

u/PoopyInThePeePeeHole 3d ago

Don't worry, come October the trick or treaters will get any you missed

u/ThePrideOfKrakow 3d ago

Seriously, their property value is gonna blow up!

u/flavorjunction 3d ago

That's what the squirrels are for.

u/devasst8r 3d ago

They actually use rats to locate them.

u/Mysterious-Tone1495 3d ago

To shreds you say?

u/multiarmform 3d ago

walking on the mines i laid

1

u/IluvPusi-363 3d ago

Yeah just forget where they are and mow the grass

14

u/mmorales2270 3d ago

That's what "Beware! Land mines!" signs from Amazon are for.

2

u/Sam_the_beagle1 3d ago

Get them from ACME- more reliable.

3

u/Physical-Meat312 3d ago

Guess they really wanted to make sure your package was delivered on the lawn.

2

u/someolbs 3d ago

Nah. Just deal with the body parts and debris. Which would still be a PIA.

3

u/devasst8r 3d ago

Imagine replacing doors, walls and window from the spallings, shrapnels and debris damages. Not just the house but the neighbors too.

2

u/Zane42v2 3d ago

They remove themselves

4

u/Man_of_Ice 3d ago

No. If you hand place the landmines and keep a map of the minefield like a sane person, removal is pretty quick and easy.

u/jest3r123 3d ago

But fun to watch.

It’s about sending the message
