The Random Image Thread (keeping it PG-13 at the worst)
I once beat a Tweetsie "Indian" that picked me up on the head with a hard plastic tomahawk when I was that kid's age.
He put me down awful fast.

Aw, he's no fun, he fell right over.

If you see a venezuelan behind you, get out of the stick fiddling way. The guy in the tumbling car walked out of it.

Yeah, it's like he cut in front of the other, but the race officers gave Maldonado a 10 seconds penalty anyway, like it was his fault. I suppose they have all the camera angles an telemetry... not that I want it to be his fault.

operationally, in the field, it would be a nightmare.

I mean it would be possible to cunningly (and expensively) build the spring such that it did not create undue force on the rounds when the clip was full. In other words jamming would not be a problem. . . for a small fortune.sturner wrote:operationally, in the field, it would be a nightmare.Kirk wrote: Yes, though it would be possible to mitigate the issue, I'm sure that amount of care and expense did not go into its construction.![]()
I'm sure having that big heavy thing down below the rifle would play hell with control / sighting regardless.

I'm reasonably certain "aiming" that thing is more an exercise of "point in the general direction". The first few rounds might actually go in that direction, too...

Yeah, the first few.

t's time to add Cannabis to this list. Cannabis is a far less-harmful and less-addictive alternative to alcohol and we could prevent a lot of the harm that alcohol causes by giving people the right to choose cannabis instead of alcohol. While alcohol kills 80,000 people/year in the U.S., cannabis kills none. And it's alcohol that causes liver disease, cancer and brain damage, cannabis doesn't cause any of these things. As far as addiction goes - cannabis is only about as addictive as coffee. Cannabis is a far safer alternative to alcohol and it's time to put it on the same legal footing as beer and wine. Chardonnay Cabernet Merlot Cannabis - only ONE lacks the ability to kill
