CSGV fails at social media, and relevance, and any impact whatsoever yet again. Ladd Everitt doesn’t seem to be very good at his job. Of course, we already knew Josh Horwitz is bad at his too so I suppose it is no great surprise.
Ineffective people being ineffective:
H/T to John Richardson
A happy end to what could have been another sad story. H/T to Pissed.
Well, at least in that “I have talked with him on the internet” kind of way. Same way I know one of the coaches on Full Metal Jousting (though I know the guy who made the armor IRL) and at least one person from Doomsday Preppers.
It seems Dennis is providing a cool item to the Abbey character on NCIS.
A little impromptu shoot/get-together at the Casa Grande range. Normally this would be fine, I make some of these and miss some, but one of the guys brought the following:
MG42
M240 with new suppressor
M249 with suppressor
HK G41K factory HK MG which takes AR mags.
Roni 45 MG
All the Star pistols I have for sale on the classifieds.
My new Tri Star Cobra shotgun
The Phone Booth Fighter (which is now for sale)
A couple Daewoos
German MP40 w/suppressor
M3 Greasegun
The Interarms Virginian Dragoon I have for sale in the classifieds .44 mag
G21 with Thompson machine suppressor
The Feather 22 with suppressor for sale in the classifieds.and some other stuff I can’t remember.
Dang it.
Asked of me by the guy working the checkout lane I’m in at the local food emporium negotiating the vending of some tasty comestibles.
“By any chance, are you an anthropologist?”
Hmm. I know I’m an academic and all, but this was a little out of left field. Turns out he was trying to remember all the different species of australopithecines for some reason. Good for him, that makes him sharper than most of the folks I run into there. Though for a second I had encountered some distant relative of Dr. Stephen Falken. Sure beats students talking about key parties or necrophilia.
I had forgotten this little gem.
Isn’t that necrophilia?
Yeah, pretty much. It’s cool though.
And this, between 2 girls in a classroom full of students doing research and 2 faculty members.
Girl, you have boundary issues and not in a good uptight way. Why don’t you just ^&%$ him in his mom’s front yard?
*sigh*
never cease to amaze me. Today was really one of the better ones. While helping students do career research, a table of 4 women – 3 younger (20’s if I had to guess) and one older (my age at least) – stops doing work and starts chatting. The topic turns to sex, despite the fact that they are sitting in the library surrounded by other tables of students, and the older one describes the key parties they used to have and how awesome they were. It went downhill from there.
I can’t decide if that is better or worse than the sentence fragment “No, he was killed. Satan killed him. Best thing ever.” I caught in a Sociology class yesterday.
Misanthropic? Me? Inconceivable.
