Ah, but tunnels are always dangerous. Fires are especially dangerous in tunnels. You shouldn't be in a tunnel during or after an earthquake. Car accidents are really dangerous in tunnels. Avoid tunnels during or after floodings. After an apocalypse tunnels have no lights and haven't been rapaired or serviced in years. Also if something or someone dangerous is lurking in there it is obviously coming right into your direction. And then you have only one direction to flee. Never get into a situation where you have onnly one escape direction. Also tunnels are perfect places for an ambush, the kind of ambush where you get killed, looted and partially eaten by marauding post-apocalyptic gangs. Nah, tunnels are always evil and should be avoided at all costs. ;P I think I don't agree with Daryl being one of the few or the only character I want to have on my side during an apocalypse, remember the time at the prison. He instantly turned into the lapdog and yes-man of an incompetent leader. Pre-prison Daryl yes, absolutely, but now - nope.- The Walking Dead
Its easy to forget Beth, I haven't thought of her either. Well, until now, now that you mentioned her.. Oh, and one more thing about the Doc, Eugene, that makes it even less logical for him to withhold the information labeling it as classified. If he indeed knows whats going on and what he knows can help to restore whats left of humanity he needs to write down the informations ASAP in case he gets killed. He doesn't so he is either the dumbest scientist in the world or hes a fraud. Well, they cannot be so bad compared to what we've already seen, they clearly cant be as bad and insane as the Gov, even Rick didn't help that guy on the road who got later eaten by zombies. And he didn't care. But lets wait and see.- The Walking Dead
Good point, I still wouldn't have gone through the tunnel though, simply too dangerous. If my loved one went through that obviously dangerous tunnel for no other reason than to save some time she wouldn't be my love one because I hate stupid reckless people. Yes he did, and no, I would not think people would be ok with ''its classified'' and shut up about it. Not in a situation like that. If I risk my life for keeping somebody save because said person has valuable informations about the apocalypse I want to know every little detail to make sure he is not lying to me. Tell me what I want to know or get lost. Abraham is a naive idiot. I would have camped in the vicinity and observed that place before even considering going in there. I would have waited for my friends and stopped them from carelessly rushing to a potentially dangerous place. Send some people in and wait what happens, don't just go in there like a group of naive kids.- The Walking Dead
Episode 15, season 4: By the gods, why are the characters getting dumber each damn episode? If I would have been invited to a huge place offering ''sanctuary'' for all, that has no security against any kind of attackers whatsoever, has no locked gates and no people to greet but one old lady, in the middle of an apocalypse....I would have stayed the hell away from there or I would have left some people behind as backup if things go bad. Also ''terminus'' and ''sanctuary'' are nicer words for ''death.'' How can they just waddle into such an obvious trap? After everything they went through? Do they have any brains left in their heads? Oh, and why did Glenn have to insist on going through that stupid super dangerous tunnel? They could have looked for a car outside the tunnel and get to Maggie much faster without having to risk their lives. And why the rush, she was going to Terminus, no need to risk your neck to get there a couple of hours quicker. And why doesn't anyone bother to ask the doc about what exactly he knows about the cure? Just haul his behind to Washington no questions asked? Maybe he knows nothing and just uses Abe and the group to carry his his worthless arse through the apocalypse, making false promises. He wouldn't survive for a week all alone. That would also explain why he is sabotaging and deliberately slowing down everyone. There is only one thing I liked in this episode, its Daryl's new group. They're not the ruthless savages I expected and the leader seems to be a rather decent, smart guy. The rules may be really harsh, but no rules would result in much worse situations.- The Funny Things Thread.

The stupidity of people never ceases to amaze me, what about the other million of STD's? She could have gotten hepatitis and infect her children with it. I wonder how such walnut-sized-brain people can get to an old age. If dumb luck didn't exist there weren't any stupid people on this planet.- Armour & weapon designs (part V).
I think scorpions had more range than any other mobile and easily deployable weapon, imagine a volley of those at massed troops that cannot return fire due to the distance. Must be really bad for the morale... it was like the ''grasshopper'' cannon of the roman time.- Armour & weapon designs (part V).
Yeah, but also dangerous in more than one way. It fired a ball grenade with a fuse (or a chemical fuse) that had to be lit before shooting the gun. So if the gun misfired and did not send the bomb out of the barrel you better drop it quickly before the bomb goes off. Also the recoil must have been absolutely brutal firing such a heavy grenade, even at low velocities. Newtons third law. The gun was not fired directly from the shoulder (that would have resulted in a broken shoulder) but still. A difficult and potentially dangerous (dangerous for the shooter, the bystanders and the enemy - dangerous for everyone!) yet effective weapon. Matchlock multibarrel cannon. 10 times more gun, 10 times more fun.- The Funny Things Thread.

Now I want to carry a sawed-off arquebuse under my trench coat and rob liquor stores.- Armour & weapon designs (part V).
Dispatch attacking goblin hordes like a boss with the volley gun! And the ball-bomb launcher: If you are attacked by a raging cyclops you better carry one of these on your shoulder, the 25mm wall gun. Replace his eye with a 1500 grain heavy lead ball. Tear entire flocks of harpies a new one with the heavy 28mm blunderbuss shotgun. (Fire at your own risk) Show dragons what heat really means with the 105mm recoilless rifle firing HEAT (high explosive anti tank) rounds Wait, wrong game....- The general fitness thread
The body is huge and extremely complex, to get the exact same performance more things have to match then just food intake or amount of sleep... A lot more, million more things. Hormones, average blood pressure during the day before the exercise, motivation, stress levels etc. etc. Even the ambient air pressure, temperature... you get the idea. I too have days where I do my usual preparations and simply lack the energy to go 100% for reasons unknown to me. Oh, and I'm just wondering, you do gym AND cardio on the same day? Anyway, I went cycling today, about 50 kilometers on my favorite cycling route which contains three major 2h+ climbs, had to enjoy the last hours of nice warm and sunny weather. Forecast predicted cold temperatures, wind and tons of rain for the next couple days. I got some tailwind on fast downhill sections and broke the 100km/h barrier several times. Feels like you're about to take off, driving really fast with the bicycle feels awesome. By the way, is it possible that normal weight lifting can increase endurance? I didn't do anything cardio-related in the winter (4 months) and now that I have started cycling again I feel a tremendous boost in endurance. My old cycling routes hardly challenge me anymore, especially climbs.- The Funny Things Thread.

Today I was in the gun store and while I had to wait for the gunsmith who was busy with customers I couldn't stop thinking of a I had to fight the urge to burst out in laughter the entire time I was in the store. My brain has an annoying habit of making me think of inappropriate things in all kinds of situations, just out of the blue. I do but I am an English South African so my understanding of Afrikaans is better than how I speak it I've always wondered, does this make you feel a little bit like a foreigner in your native country?- Weird News Stories part2
