Police Are Smart

[PenguinPandaZero]

Now, WAIT. Don't call this off-topic please, because it is entirely Terraria related.

It has probably been said before, but I found an old article in The Times of India.

The full version is here. And the simplified is here.
Or for those who are lazy or don't trust links, I'll just say what the short one says.

On Tuesday, police commissioner B K Gupta told reporters he had spent hours researching sticky bombs. Officers then distributed printouts which ostensibly explained what a sticky bomb is.

The printout stated, "Sticky bombs are a type of explosives crafted from one Bomb and 5 Gel. At point blank range, it can cause a total of 100 damage to mobs and 200 to the player". It also listed 'Statistics' as: Damage 100, Max Stack 50, Shoot Speed 5, Use Time 24, Sell 1.

These seem unusual ingredients for making a bomb. A net search showed the matter seemed to have been downloaded from Terraria Wiki, used by gamers who play online game Terraria.

I'm assuming he just googled "Sticky Bomb" as the Terraria Wiki page is the 6th result for me.
Again, it was probably mentioned before, but I thought it was funny and should be shared.

[MolochMekkane]

Whoops. Someone dun goofed.

Terraria probably got some exposure from that.

 

[CorruptdWarrior]

Haha, amazing. It's funny how things like this leak into real life.

DailyHop was slain by laughing.

 

[Suweeka]

That's like old news lel. It's still worth a chuckle however.

 

[Zinnia]

Police gunna catch all the Terrarists and confiscate their Sticky bombs/Megasharks.

 

[zimberzimber]

Wow...
Well, once I get a bomb I could freely buy them from some random dude that will live in my house.

 

[Isaac the Jester]

We are creating distruction with creation

 

[Max]

I... I think that just reading it they should have seen what it was. The numbers alone don't make sense in any other context.

 

[Suweeka]

Implying they read, hue hue hue.

 

[The Real Sharknado]

Teens these days and there Sticky Bombs

 

[Kyouko Tsukino]

Police intelligence: The ultimate oxymoron.

 

[W1K]

This is the truest possible definition of OLD BUT GOLD.

 

[Yüen]

You people realize this is like two years old right?
