“Solar can be dangerous…it is only approved for outdoor use.”

The newly constructed TransPacific Solar Pipeline suffered a ‘major rupture’ on Friday, injuring hundreds and potentially endangering thousands more. The cause of the rupture, which occurred near Des Moines, Iowa was not immediately clear. The rupture occurred in the early AM, causing an explosion that knocked down power lines as far as 2 miles away and set fire to the surrounding grasslands. So far, more than 100 acres have burned.

The TSA (TransPacific Solar Administration) has released a statement, saying: “First off, we are not the ‘Toilet Safety Administration’, so please stop asking. Seriously, we know all about the brewhaha going on in the Carolina’s, but now is not the time for politics. We would also like to take this opportunity to congratulate all the brave members of the LGBTS community for, you know, being brave. We would also like to congratulate all Muslims for their contributions to science over the last two thousand years.”

Advocates for solar energy pipelines are calling the rupture ‘an unfortunate accident’. “Solar can be dangerous, sure, that is why it is only approved for outdoor use.” said solar advocate Bob Nunn. “But like we say, a day without solar is like night.”
