A Geek With Guns

It’s Tuesday which means you need a good laugh. Thankfully The Firearm Blog has provided one via this video:

Seriously I’d watch the biathlon if this is how it was played.

There is a new gun blogger meme started by none other than Uncle:

The commercial should have ended with a guy in a big ass Ford Earthfucker^tm that gets 5 miles per gallon with seats made from baby seals blowing past the roadblock billowing smoke. And, for effect, the driver flips them off. I’d buy that car. Not this little compliant pansy car. You appeal to Americans in an ad by showing rebellion and general orneriness. Not passiveness, compliance, or sheepishness.

Sadly I drive a Ford Ranger which hardly comes close to being an Earthfucker but I plan on moving up some day. It appears as though Random Nuclear Strikes has found somebody who does own an Earthfucker though.

One of my friends e-mailed me a rather awesome item with pictures of some of the best concealed weapons ever. Seriously you could never even tell those items were weapons! But the absolute best part is one of the comments by a user using the handle KKK:

hahaha this is funny, cause they are poorly hidden so the buyer doesn’t want them LOL

He’s a smart one.

I’ve you’ve written any amount of Python this should be rather funny.

I don’t care who you are this is just plain funny. Via Dvorak Uncensored we get this story:

A floor collapsed beneath a group of about 20 members of Weight Watchers as they gathered to compare how many pounds they had shed over Christmas.

I can’t make any smart ass comment that could possibly add to that.

OK there are some creativity points going out to Carolyn Paulsen-Riat. Her husband left her and she decided revenge was in order. But how could she do it? Well by rewiring his power tools to give him an electrical shock! From the article:

In the documents, deputies say the woman told them she had reversed the wires on his power tools because she was angry he was leaving.

I’m sorry but that’s funny and deliciously evil. Of course being this was an attack charges are in order:

Carolyn Paulsen-Riat was booked Friday into the Thurston County Jail for investigation of third-degree assault, domestic violence, and second-degree malicious mischief. A judge released the 33-year-old woman on her own recognizance.

Bad idea but certainly creative. I love it when psychos give me something to smile about in the morning.

Bruce Schneier has a post of user submitted ideas for a new TSA log. Some of them are pure gold.

They would look something like this:

Yes. Your eyes are not deceiving you. That really is a Smith & Wesson J-frame revolver (a.k.a. a snubbie) with a laser sight, a flashlight, and a bayonet.

Credit goes to Rob Allen for this amazing find.

Snowflakes in Hell points out that the Joyce Foundation, everybody’s favorite foundation, pretty much laid out what they think. They dropped a granted to Johns Hopkins with the following description:

For support of research on policies that can more effectively restrict firearm ownership to law-abiding persons.

As Sebastian points out it’s probably just a poor choice of words. But it most certainly would fit their standard operating procedure.

User Lee N. Field over at The Gun Rights Radio Network forum posted a great diagram displaying how Glock automatic pistols work. Enjoy:

Happy New Years!
