[QUOTE=Trunk Monkay;42953114]an insanely over priced and unwieldy spotter scope [editline]23rd November 2013[/editline] it can use infrared, black and white or white and black, night vision, make toast, broil a sandwich, stir fry, pan fry, deep fry, bake, and even microwave.[/QUOTE] But will it blend?

[QUOTE=kirby2112;42952239]I deleted the gimp file with all the layers and everything, and I don't wanna have to do it all again, but I did add like, 16% more 'MURRICA.

In reality, that motherfucker is hurling through the solar system fast enough to escape it. When it reaches its maximum speed (and closest distance to the sun, about 700,000km), it will be travelling 0.1% [I]c[/I], about 360 km/s. That is from New York to London in 16 seconds. Holy. Fuck.

His rifle has a free floating barrel and a bipod on the receiver to reduce tension on the barrel, and what does he do? He braces his gun against the car using the barrel that engineers tried so hard to keep tension off of.

[QUOTE=booster;42958768]Pretty sure it's some sort of "Army PR photoshoot"[/QUOTE] Still though, it would be like a PR shoot for a tank company and all the tanks are driving backwards with their turret facing to the rear
[QUOTE=Trunk Monkay;42958833]Still though, it would be like a PR shoot for a tank company and all the tanks are driving backwards with their turret facing to the rear[/QUOTE] More like a PR shoot for a tank company in which they have only 210 degree security coverage because that looks cooler.

[QUOTE=Animosus;42965006]Something about that is awesome. Would be interesting to live in a place like that.[/QUOTE] it actually isn't. I used to live in a place called Destin in Florida. Having a bay to the north and a beach to the south sounds great when you're only there for a month at the most out of the year. But when you're constantly dealing with tourist traffic year round, brutal brutal BRUTAL salt air rusting anything and everything, and insanely high costs of living; it's really not fun to live in places like that.

you dont have to live in a high class neighborhood next to the beach to enjoy that kind of life. id be fine living [i]near[/i] a place like that. i just dont get the fascination people have with living right next to the beach, from my experience, its just better to live like, 30min - 1h away from it and you can enjoy the best of both worlds.
