French Connection U.K. - ing computers, goddamn them and their spawn unto the 71st generation; sometimes it's almost, almost like I could forfeit all of their benefits for the lack of stress not ever using one entails. They wind me up that much.   Of course, then I wouldn't be able to show off all my toys to you guys so I guess I'll have to battle through with it   Also I must mention here; for the sake of not going off on yet another tangent and losing a good thread; that the titular b

The other ones were too rude

Ever wondered what a Smart Car looks like if you plough it into a concrete wall at 70mph? Well Tiff Needell obviously did, and it looks a bit like this:   http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=6605730767077503480   Overall, I must say I am impressed; the little blighters can take a fair wallop!! Mostly because they weigh so little, I'm sure, but it's all good for the driver (although maybe they should have simulated the weight of a driver in with it...?)   I can send no more of the

What not to wear

I'm trying to think of an amusing costume for Sunday's skirmish, it is Christmas after all. I wanted a Santa Claus full-on outfit with a pillow round my waist (getting close to not needing one actually) and the full beard/hat combo.   And a sign on my back reading "Ho-Ho-Ho Now I have a Machinegun"   Or maybe an elf, that way a green & brown semi-covert ensemble could be fashioned, but this would involve more free time and effort than I actually have/am willing to give up I'll go fo

Oh Dear.

Quick mention to this article in the Times online that makes me really quite worried, and sad.   The precedent for this was set by the Neo-Nazi organisations and the Ku Klux Klan. Oh dear, what is it going to take for politically-minded bigots to realise how much harm they're really doing

EvilHippy's hangover cure

I call it the `Prairie Ouster`: Take 4 raw eggs, some olive oil (large dash), some vinegar (another large dash) salt & pepper and some tabasco sauce if you can find it, stick them all in a paper cup/bowl made of today's newspaper and use it as an excuse to get next to the most senior person in the office you can find, and when there simply smack the mixture into their face, making sure to rub it deep into their eyes and ears.   It'll cure your hangover in a second, I guarantee it The c

Minions of the Dark Lord.

There are some sick souls out there, and it may come as no surprise to you that many of them are working in marketing departments up and down the country, and all around the world.   I sampled the foul fruit of their insidious labours not even half an hour ago....   What kind of sick son of a b*tch designs, manufactures and markets a rubber hairbrush? I mean c'mon, honestly - this f*cker is going down, come the finish; I mean, if Constantine isn't just being creatively paranoid, and the fo

The M14 saga

Goddamn M14s. I'm starting to despise them now, as much as I lust after one they have caused untold misery to millions.... </exaggeration>.   No I'm hardly annoyed about it, just a little bewildered, and it's that they are so problematic compared to all other AEGs I've ever bought. I just snubbed Guns N Guys offer of one at £3000 (HKD) which is about £220, in favour of WGC's $318 (USD). The differences of course are that WGC have just quotd me and they want $86 USD for shipping!!

…and Christmas is cancelled!

This isn't Emo, okay (my personal crusade against them seems to have been started!) but it's a timely reminder, and something worthy of rememberance so if you don't like it, you can politely go and **** yourself   This time of year is almost becoming a bit tragic for our family, with a trace of irony that cannot be ignored, at this time of year.   Being a very strong Christian family (all pretty damned devout except myself and my Brother: Practising Aetheists) the following tale is somewh

Order Shenanigans #1

This is me thinking out loud, m'kay? The "rewired mind and combat:..." entry is coming once I've figured out how I have actually rewired my mind, but, suffice to say, that it was not especially combat efficient.   Speaking of which, another classic quote from Sledge had me chortling away today: "....that's because women look good naked; lesbians are porn-efficient"   I lol'ed A bit like that, in fact.   But anyway, I'm merely thinking out loud and making sure I know what's go

The Re-Wired Mind and Combat

Well it's not a good idea, really. Getting so thoroughly out of your tree that you stop concentrating on reality for too long and the little pixies arrive, bearing special magical presents just for you, is not exactly conducive to an efficient combat experience.   I went out for a good old-fashioned boogie (I dislike the overuse of the term `rave` by these kiddies who just don't have any idea...) to the `M club` in Southampton. I even thought of a little pun for this place the the other week;

Ooooh yeah, gotta love that 8milly

Got drunk last night on a keg of New Heineken that had been brought all the way from the Netherlands to England, just for me. Sort of.   The nature of it's arrival impressed upon me the right way to do business; it was brought, along with assorted other alcoholic presents for all 7 of my colleagues (including our accountant up North and the boss), on an exclusively `personal` trip that held no commercial prospects for the bloke other than the goodwill it engendered.   And considering the g

Evil-H's Chrimbo special

"..'t - is the season to be jo-lly, fa la la la l - ah, la lah lah l - ah" ..... oh sorry, didn't see you there: Merry Christmas!! (why aren't you cowering beneath a pile or presents and gaggle of relatives? Eh??)   Or the other way round if your a mad scientist, I suppose.   I would be doing the same thing but it's all a wee bit sombre this year of course, and due to our laziness and cold calculating nature we have, in total, received from the family & Jason (pretty much a member of

I've got wood.

Uh, huh huh huh, huh huh, huh huh huh, Beavis, uh huh huh, you're pretty dumb, huh huh, dumbass, huh huh huh huh huh, huh huh huh.   Yeah it's a cheap and innacurate gag, but I will have wood soon. And even better, I'm gonna show you all!!!   Before this gets too wrong I have to say I am being thoroughly wholesome here, and entirely literal. I will simply need some wood (uh huh huh huh).   I've sort of opted loosely for Douglas Fir because, according to all the research I did at work wh

Amsterdam.

Okay, so I didn't go and buy the wood for making cabinets yet. But I did get back from Amsterdam on Sunday after celebrating new year there.   I think that is a viable excuse, really.   Ah yes, Amsterdam, `Citie of one Thousande Surprisses` as Terry Pratchett might like to think of it, but in truth there were no surprises at all, which....could have been better, which is a real shame because it would be so nice if I hadn't been so calculating about what I saw. What I heard could hardly b

The M14 saga: part 2

My Tokyo Marui M14 just arrived. Aaaaaaaand relax.   This was my main Christmas present (to my myself, natch) this year, and that's besides the RK-104 I got just before Christmas; this was actually confirmed as a purchase and e-paid on Christmas morning itself. So there ya go, its all official, like.   I Haven't counted for a while but I think that makes it 72 guns now, which is nice, and I realised just how `nice` that actually is the other day when I was sitting on the tram from Den Ha

Amsterdamnation. Worth the price (£Your.Soul)

It all caught up with me this week. I've been continuing Dutch habits and been hammered every night since I got back and, accordingly, haven't really done very much apart from eat, sleep and mong out, hence the lack of entries when I have so much to blab about   So these crazy fireworks eh? Bloody hellfire. I had no idea they would be *quite* that loud. It was the only surprise Amsterdam held for me, and it was certainly a novelty, what with it actually affecting my hearing and everything.

Here's us! Woo!

A shameful excuse just to use the photo ability of the medium, now that I've bothered to cross-reference the doobries on Photobucket.com and found that the tags for images in the forums are the same as on here. I should have guessed, really.   So here we have, firstly; my mate Jason, who gets more name-checks on here than I do, being a Combat Wombat and posing for the camera. Smart mother-*fruitcage*-er isn't he? The git     And secondly; From left to right - Stuart; purveyor of cheap

I'm pretty sure you're not alone, Snowy.

My apologies to Snowman for referring to him by the same name as TinTin's dog, but I have to echo and reply to his post on losing interest in airsoft.   No mate, your probably not, it is, as you say, the January blues. Almost certainly.   I've been thinking similar things lately, and I notice there is a lot of mention in the forums about quitting airsoft too - as if its a major life decision anyway - and a fair bit of angling for sympathy "No man dont leeve airsoft your cool man!!" is what

HK33 for the win!

The KSC HK33 is the most solid AEG in the world. Ever. Dispute this if you will, and to be fair I haven't actually held/owned any G&P Armalites or STAR SA80s, but for me, out of the 12/13 AEGs I have, the KSC gun am teh bestest.   And I'm pretty sure its the best all round, mag issues are the only thing that could cause any complaint in that a] there are no hicaps yet and b] my mag has some of the plating around the top hanging loose, yet still it works fantastically and the mags are defi

Lusting after Halle Berry.

Well you would, wouldn't you?   I need to get my mitts on the Western Arms M84 spypack deluxe, I love the M84 Cheetah and the M8045 Cougar to bits and I'm getting a second Cougar soon, so it would be utter sacrilege not to have another version of the Cheetah to compliment it.   This is an uninformative, non-entertaining and completely pointless entry, purely to draw as much attention to my plight as possible which is that no bugger seems to sell these any more, and I want it so much I wo

Assault Vs Scout Vs Squad.

I was trying to find a cunning way to call this entry `Salt & Pepper ftw - Assault 'em & Pepper 'em for the win` or something like that but I couldn't make it quite snappy enough.   But anyway;   After another slightly frustrating game of play on Sunday, that culminated in a glorious (literally) assault game, I have decided one or two things that might ring true with some of you. Maybe not everyone, but I have a feeling it will strike a chord with quite a few.     I was tagged

The choice has been made. SG1 is the win!

I honestly don't know which gun, especially as a main weapon, to use in a skirmish. I've mostly tried using my M4, G36C, AUG, G3 SG1, RK 104, M16 with gas M203 and also the M500 shorty and M3 Super 90 shotguns as main guns, and all manner and size of handgun as backups.   The recurring problem is that I don't feel comfortable with them, and I have worked this out to be because I like them too much. Aesthetically, I mean; They don't have wonderful personalities, unlike most of the fine people

I am a liar, obviously.

Well so much for the `short posts` idea. Sorry if you have to read all this (I'm sure some poor sap is being forced to do so at gunpoint, as some kind of light-yet-wearing torture) but these are simply things on my mind. Thats why we're all here, non?   This is short, in fact, its only got a couple of lines left   After a few beers at work (after work finished of course) and a Guiness or two I found that yes, indeed, my rinsing alcoholism was back in play and I raided the folk's wine rack

The Evil Hippy LP

Ah yes, my pet hate. Prepare for some bile   I am purposefully not gonna get carried away actually, I'll try and remain objective - not actually gonna happen now, is it?   Education, state education mostly, in this country (and I can't comment on any other country but I'm guessing its similar) is utterly terrible. Its over-managed, off-topic, over-sensitive and missing the point.   Now, I don't know why this is so, because i have no real grasp of the political complexities relating t

12-Gauge Glory.

Soooo....... we're having the 8th member of my rather greedy and self-indulgent shotgun family arriving soon, they're coming to dinner - and they may just stay the night ......   Actually, strictly speaking (or typing), that's a metaphor that could be better employed elsewhere, to when I had the pleasurable company of a Tac Launcher for a couple of nights, before it went off to someone else; who had actually paid for it.   This new shottie is in fact another of the same Marui series of sho
