  1. No, but glue guns do. Those suckers are messy and I usually burn myself when I try to use them Still on the fence about what my next purchase will be.
  2. Rereading Neat by Russell Zimmerman to get myself into a Shadowrun state of mind for the upcoming week
  3. I don't know about what others do but we are told to fire warning shots into the ground since if you fire into the air you never know where it will come down I wouldn't dare deny that there is still a lot of racial inequality in the US but it's definitely played up for ratings and votes. It also relates into what we were discussing in one of the police threads with popular culture and media which reinforces and glamorizes stereotypes and criminal behavior, lack of quality education and little to no emphasis placed on it, little chance for upward movement, etc. When people feel that the system is stacked against them they are more willing to see injustice around every corner and don't get me wrong, what happened was a tragedy, but if they were the same color this wouldn't be news That's a good (but still pretty bad) enough of a segue for me to post this I think http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=TG4f9zR5yzY
  4. I had a joke about how by changing the appearance of the rifle it has now become an "assault weapon" even though the function has remained same but I think it would have only been funny to me. What I did today? Nothing really, just another day in the life of a soulless corporate drone EDIT: Almost forgot I spent a few hours trying to find some info on speeding fines for when my wife inevitably gets caught and gets a ticket. I swear they make it impossible to find on purpose. Every link just sends you in a big circle and you end up with no information other than how to pay. I'm not anti govt but today I feel like they are trolling me
  5. Sorry to nitpick but it's a pet peeve As for the actual case I don't see how it could have turned out any different with only one person living to tell the tale and the evidence matching up well enough to his story. It's a tragedy and probably could have easily been avoided. I just can't muster the outrage that I see in a lot of people over this because in my opinion it was two people looking for a confrontation and they both got more than they bargained for
  6. "They'd probably be good at making watches, be my guess, if they ever got into that, right?" - referring to the Swiss LOL Must have missed that the first time I watched it
  7. Just put him in a crowded room and let him mingle for a while before randomly walking over and casually dropping the name Jesus to a nearby group of people, not so loud that everyone turns and looks but not so quiet as it goes unnoticed. If he turns around and says what then he most likely is Jesus. It's pretty close to an error proof test
  8. I saw that one person objected to a teen girl selling herself and another, quite understandably, doesn't want his daughter going down that path but to me that doesn't seem that strange. I may be missing something though because I admit I haven't been following this thread very closely as it's not something I'm very interested in since I haven't played any of the games mentioned. I've only chimed in on these off topic tangents
  9. I dunno, did anyone even say anything particularly negative about it?
  10. crap http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=fvzdehnJA9k backed it but 30 bucks is a steeper entry point than usual
  11. I can agree with that The M1 Garand is a favorite of mine Which gives me an excuse to post this
  12. What ever happened to Krezak? Seems to be the kind of thing he would have loved Hippies smoke weed, hippies are vegetarians, vegetarians starve? See? Sence, I makes it. Ha! That's the same thing I told my wife
  13. Marijuana May Make Us Thinner, Even with the Munchies What ever happened to Krezak? Seems to be the kind of thing he would have loved
  14. What did you sell and what did you buy? I'm also interesting in what you bought/sold I dunno what's wrong with me but recently I've been browsing like crazy for a new gun to add to the collection. Hand guns mostly since there are restrictions in the city/county where I live that prohibit me from getting the one thing I truly want, an AR-15. I really miss long distance target shooting with iron sights... one of the few things I miss from the military. Currently eyeing a 9mm H&K P30 for use in the local indoor range. Anyone have any thoughts or experience with it? Pretty sure that half the forum now thinks I'm a crazy gun nut and I've also been added to a few NSA (and other 3 letter agency) watch lists EDIT: I should say that I'm waffling between the P30 and the Walther PPQ
  15. Very sorry to hear that and for what it's worth I hope everything works out for you both
  16. That's how I play it Works great with a controller and it allows me to change rules and settings (and stats) that I can't do on my Xbox
  17. I'm guessing she did porn or something then...
  18. Sad but true Apology here
  19. I have a couple tattoos and I love a little ink on women but big chest tattoos are a no no Personally, I can understand getting a tattoo if you lose a loved one because my mom died when I was in my first year of college and I wanted to get a tattoo of something special or unique to remember her by. But here I am 12 years later I still never got that one done because I could never think of anything that I thought did her justice. I also agree with Hurlshot that her choosing to be a public figure makes her fair game
  20. Sadly, I've never played PnP. I was close to playing DnD once and had just started to create a character with some friends who played it quite a bit when my mom walked in and asked what we were up to. Upon hearing Dungeons and Dragons she immediately thought of Mazes and Monsters or something and thinks I'll start worshiping the devil or sacrificing virgins or who knows what. I tried to explain to her that wasn't what I'd do with virgins given the chance and not to worry because I already worshiped the devil. She wasn't amused. When she finally came around the DnD friends had moved far, far away and none of my other (lamer) friends were into it and so it never happened. The end
  21. The springs were always pretty weak in our magazines due to age and wear I don't think I'd ever seen one even close to new but then pretty much all our gear was crap EDIT: It looks just like the standard issue mags we had. 30 round capacity
