I killed a T-90 going across the top of the dam from a flying Blackhawk with a SMAW right in the ass and that is one of my most cinematic video achievements.
Sounds amazing. I've had moments like that (sniping jet pilots from a transport chopper seat), but the one that sticks out for me has to be the absurd pre-nerf Blackhawk 79 killstreak that about had me questioning the gamer ethics of what I was doing. Like my toon would need some 1 on 1 with a therapist after. It wasn't super spectacular to look at. Just mechanical and steadily horrifying.

I declare the pilot was as much in the wrong profiting off it.

A buddy and I did pin a sniper for a bit of stab/revive humor. After a few cycles, we released him back into the wild like a rehabilitated animal. This was vividly cinematic and the funniest part of the whole affair. He stopped at the corner of a fence, looked back, and when we didn't shoot he crossed the street, got in a tank, and drove away. I want to feel bad about it but it had us in stitches at the time. I can only imagine he might've seen the humor in it, because he could have easily had his revenge.

Another scenario, the victim escaped his fate and turned into a bunny hopping cyclone of bullet death. That was just as amazing and memorable.

A third I recall ended tragically as the body of a commander slid limply down a hill, unable to be targeted for revival. I think a group of players on both sides were watching, and did nothing to help! "Don't die on us!"

Previous to those, I interrupted a cluster of it (actual stat padding this time) by smashing a vodnik through the whole affair.

I think I played that game too many hours.

Famous from when the Walking Dead jumped the shark in many fan's eyes.

Funny thing about America is that if you beat a home intruder with a barbed wire bat you would get into more trouble than if you shot them with a rifle.
I am going to buy the bat with next month's Amazon points. I made this decision because Negan is my spirit character.
As an adult, Negan worked as a gym teacher, helping his students improve upon their weaknesses and molding them into stronger individuals.

Nah, a standard bat is dual-use, thats an offensive weapon.

Mac you might want to check on your local/state laws about modified baseball bats. Regardless, it's not something that looks very good for a teacher to be in possession of. It's an ugly weapon, and excessively cruel even if you do just claim it's a collector thing.

Thanks for your concerns but I am not a teacher. I am a I don't know gardener? Yes for now on I will be a Native American gardner.

Anyway I am not going to put the bat on Facebook. It is purely for house defense/zombie apocalypse. You shouldn't ever promote violence on the internet and I stay true to that. As a gardener I think it is important to nourish all life. The Great Spirit of my people is pretty clear on that.

Keep a glove and ball in your trunk at least. I guess the story would be that you play deathmatch baseball...

I really wish I had gotten a chance to try these hipster cigarettes before I quit in 2010.

Good on you for quitting, Mac. One hears stories of substance abuse issues among our valued Indigenous population, and I'm so happy to see that it's not a cycle that can't be broken. Personally, I think that cigarettes offer a momentary escape from the trials of daily life, and shouldn't be looked down on as a habit with no value. With that said, it's a habit that can and should be replaced by more positive pursuits. What have you taken up in place of ripping huge drags off a fuckin' dick stick after your 6th Natty Lite at the watering hole up the street?

I see he deleted the post on his new Indigenous backstory. I was looking forward to that set of posts. Can't wait for the next iteration of his being.

EDIT - I am serious

Today I received a leather key organiser

https://www.carlfriedrik.com/collection … -organiser

Really handy, so much better than having a random ball of keys in my pocket, this fits neatly next to my wallet.

However some of my keys (like this) are a bit big for this thing.

I can't find any locksmiths that make thin versions of these types of keys so I wondered if the engineers of BF2s (Dilbert) have any suggestions. Would an engineering firm cut me a custom shaped key handle?

that looks like a pretty regular main door key here, like for a lever lock. the one below the latch key.

An engineering firm could mill it flat, the cylindrical tip is needed for function in the lock, you'd also lose a bit of torsional strength and stiffness.
If most of the thickness is in the handle that can be reduced, losing a bit of strength again.
All in all probably easier to get the lock changed.

Black Friday is today. Christmas is my favorite Holiday because I love giving gifts to loved ones. What better why to show you love someone than by acquiring expensive physical stuff for them? So far I bought another gift for my dad and will do shopping for my nieces today.

Black Friday (and Cyber Monday) is a good time to buy large screen TVs for like 40% off. Not so much for individual computer components, I find. No better (and sometimes worse) than other sales throughout the years.
