I've heard of LOLcats, but a LOLwalrus???


This image is doing the rounds and going viral.




It's said to have been taken aboard a Russian submarine, although judging by the bird droppings on the tail fin and deck, the sub hasn't been to sea in a while.  Be that as it may, it didn't take long for someone to do a LOLcat (LOLwalrus?) treatment of the picture.




Of course, this isn't the first time we've seen critters on submarines.  There was that rogue SEAL team a few years ago . . .

That's LOLrus.

It is indeed Lolrus, and for some reason they have a fondness for buckets.

Actually, that Russian sub could have been in port less than a week. She's really clean. You'd be amazed at how much birdpoop shows up on a black submarine hull.

Oh, and that's an ordinary access hatch. Too small to be cruise or ballistic missiles, not to mention it's one the centerline of the hull.

I hated those [expletives deleted] "boat turds"!

That's the back end of an Oscar. Lass SSGN. But correct, not a missile tube. Oscars carry missiles in port and starboard tubes up forward.

It's blocking access to our nuclear wessel!
