At least in mine sweeper, on my computer when you click on a mine the bomb explodes... in my life in Sunny So cal when you hit a bomb you get a recorded announcement."we are sorry this mine is busy right now. If you think it should have exploded carry on jumping up and down on the thing, so that we can get some really degrading evidence of your behavior for posterity, and make you feel nice and trashy later on, if in fact you live through the coming explosion or we decide to let you live. But were not playing god, you under stand, just playing favorites."
