This weekend, state police in Pennsylvania State Police reported that cows "having relations in the road" brought traffic to a standstill near Kittanning, PA. "The bull rebuffed any notion of interruptus and police had to summon Pennsylvania Farm Bureau personnel," writes Jon Schmitz of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette. (Photo via Sean Bonner)

    Good for the bull not letting ‘The Man’ cockblock him…

    Welcome to India, circa 1989 my friends…

    Seriously though, I routinely have to slow down on my way to work (in a major metropolis, no less) when I cross a certain street, ’cause the water buffalo don’t respond to honks! I swear, this is true!

    If it had been 2 humans, they probably would have tasered ‘em

      United States - all of the violence and none of the sex that you might expect in a “civilized” nation.

    Cows ‘having relations’ and a bull! So, a threesome then?

    • http://BrianEaston.net/ Brian Easton

      The term cow is accepted as gender neutral for laypeople. Considering that in order to accurately call a female bovine a cow you need to know if it has given birth at least once (or twice depending on region) it seems reasonable to not be pedantic. It is fairly obvious though that the male in this equation was a bull and not a steer.

      • Wreckrob8

        It is less a question of being pedantic than finding all the possibilities in a text (whether intentional or not).

      Seriously. 

  • kristen55

    The odd thing to me is that cow sex is usually a wham-bam-thank-you-ma’m sort of thing. How long were these cows blocking the road that authorities got involved, and called for backup?

      Expect to see heifers flocking to Kittanning, PA, when the word (moo) gets out.

    • Efemmeral

      This was their first time! Stop applying so much pressure!

  • deviousasti

    It was a case of cops trying for… Cowitus interruptus.

    Kittanning is, for better or worse, my hometown, and I can assure you that this does not surprise me in the least.
