Could zebra racing be the next big thing?

it's flambe gazelles around here bub. zebras are for memsaabs.

Never a truer word spoken. Would the sight of a passing high speed zebra render its markings into a grey blur? If this is the case then you're probably better off just sticking to grey horses. It'd be cheaper.

Would a speed camera be able to spot a zebra? Or would those leopard-confusing markings enable it to escape detection? I guess even a jellyfish could escape detection, were it evenr to be launched at 1,195 miles an hour past a speed camera: where would they send the fixed penalty notice? A jellyfish has no fixed abode, goddammit! Send em back where they came from! Damn jellyfish. Hellyfish is what I call em. No, actually I call em wibbly-wobbly-ouch-you-bastard-that's-the-last-time-I-wear-you-as-a-hat-men. And I think they know they're in the wrong, because they never give me any verbal after that.

the real question is whether, at speed, you could distinguish a zebra from a stripe-suited convict fresh off the chain gang. and if you could tell the difference at all, could you tell in time to pull up??

If you can't distinguish a zebra from a convict, why bother paying all that lolly to go to SA to photogaph your newly betrothed in front of a herd of suchsame? Why not just take her to Risley Remand Centre?

― Pooster (pooster), Wednesday, 27 August 2003 20:21 (twenty-three years ago)

The first option is actually cheaper.

In "real terms"

Zebras have inside green and not tigerstriped? Esso.

But bullshit! Hamburglar the Motherfucker stole that lemon-lime Fruit Stripe gum.

Because I'm that juicy Lion's Mane.

So zebras aren't really horses wearing pyjamas, then?

― C J (C J), Saturday, 30 August 2003 06:04 (twenty-three years ago)

Horses are zebras in horse hair jumpers, where do they get the horse hair from? I hear you cry, the simple answer is NO-ONE knows.

― Jarlr'mai (jarlrmai), Monday, 1 September 2003 08:55 (twenty-three years ago)

Vivienne Westwood makes designer horse hair jumpers for the zebras to wear. Hoardes of seven year old schoolchildren make them up, working the 4pm-to-midnight shift in appalling conditions in the sweatshops of West Kensington, for a mere ten bob a week. It's shameful, really.

― C J (C J), Monday, 1 September 2003 17:01 (twenty-three years ago)

Particularly for poor old Bob. He's knackered.

― Matt (Matt), Monday, 1 September 2003 22:08 (twenty-three years ago)

If zebra's stripes were horizontal, like race cars, could they go faster?

If Zen Clowns paid closer attention to their postings, could they avoid errors in punctuation?

― Zen Clown Critic (Zen Clown), Saturday, 6 September 2003 04:11 (twenty-three years ago)

What does punctuation have to do with zebras?

― Zen Clown (Zen Clown), Saturday, 6 September 2003 04:15 (twenty-three years ago)

I have some personal friends who are zebras and they are all punctual.

― Zen Clown Critic (Zen Clown), Saturday, 6 September 2003 04:17 (twenty-three years ago)

Ner.

― Zen Clown (Zen Clown), Saturday, 6 September 2003 04:17 (twenty-three years ago)

Never mind the sound of one hand clapping, there's little more Zen than the sound of one man losing an argument with himself in a locked, windowless cubicle.

I doubt it, but it is interesting.

― Jarlr'mai (jarlrmai), Wednesday, 3 December 2003 09:22 (twenty-two years ago)

This is a little odd.
