amateurstuntman Posted November 11, 2013 Report Share Posted November 11, 2013 Stepped in the burrow of some kind of woodland creature there and broke my ankle. Same day I also broke my M870 shell ejector (CO2 modded), my Tanaka M870 and a Chinese Benelli. PTSD indeed. Link to post Share on other sites
Gunmane Posted November 11, 2013 Report Share Posted November 11, 2013 Ah yes, epic walks. I know of one site in particular that has killed not only guns, but the spirit of those who show up all bushy-eyed and eager. Try inclines where one can easily tumble down into thorns, jagged rocks, and the wonders of low tree limbs and tree roots. I don't go to said field often (as it like most are so far away), but it has a great reputation amongst the local community for its terrain and difficulty. Last time I went, I got lost for hours, got really good at falling down cliffsides, and forded a small creek 27 times. I would almost suffer that same circumstance again for a new field to open up closer... Link to post Share on other sites

Gunmane Posted November 14, 2013 Report Share Posted November 14, 2013 Ah yes, the season where everything "supposedly" edible is shoved full of pumpkin spice, eggnog, etc, and is plastered everywhere for people to galk at. Saw a barnes and noble commercial that was beyond comprehension. Link to post Share on other sites

Habakure Posted November 14, 2013 Report Share Posted November 14, 2013 I think I'm one of the few members on here that likes Christmas. Music, food, ale and tacky as hell decorations, love it. But, I put my decorations up about two weeks before Christmas Eve (or as close as). Having said that, I hate the early adverts. But I always like seeing the hellmans mayo advert. Nostalgic. Rant:- lady with a pram knocking into my 2 year old daughter and not even apologising (she over took as and turned in too soon). I bit my lip and made sure my daughter was okay. In side I was a little off. But my daughter was okay, I was more annoyed the lady didn't say sorry (she didn't utter a '*suitcase*' when she knocked my daughter over, which was nice).

hitmanNo2 Posted November 14, 2013 Report Share Posted November 14, 2013 Always call people out on their rudeness otherwise they'll never learn. Link to post Share on other sites
Habakure Posted November 14, 2013 Report Share Posted November 14, 2013 It I would have opened my mouth, my daughter would have heard her dad swear. If she wasn't with me and she would have hit me instead, then I wouldn't have bit my lip. It is true though, rude people should be shamed. There is no excuse for it (except when they have mental disability). Link to post Share on other sites
FireKnife Posted November 15, 2013 Report Share Posted November 15, 2013 eBay has lost my account it seems. Ah well looks like I have to make a new one and if anyone has any issues with the items I sent out last week I won't know about it at all. Well done eBay As for calling rude people out I am sure if we all did that we would get stabbed or bottled eventually due to the fact that most of the rude people I see in the street are also the kind that don't care and would escalate the situation very, very quickly. Personally if it is some mother that at least looks like she has two brain cells to rub together (i.e. isn't about 16 as too many are nowadays) I would bring it up, same goes for anyone you can have an intelligent conversation with. The rest I just ignore them and leave them to be ignorant low-lifes, no point making it worse as society has given up on these wasters already. 'FireKnife' Link to post Share on other sites
Skarclaw Posted November 15, 2013 Report Share Posted November 15, 2013 I had just sat down on a train when a lady with two young boys comes up to me: "You're helmet (hung on the back of my bag) just hit my boy on his head" "I'm sorry - is he hurt" "no" I wish I said: "Well maybe he should have a helmet" but in reality :| Link to post Share on other sites

FireKnife Posted November 15, 2013 Report Share Posted November 15, 2013 Pick your battles obviously. True but nowadays you really can't be sure of what someone is going to do. Sad that we as a country have gone that way but now it is best just to deal with it I find. 'FireKnife' Link to post Share on other sites
GuzziHero Posted November 15, 2013 Report Share Posted November 15, 2013 I just went out for a short local ride on the Guzzi Griso, and there's an odd burning smell. The oil was low, I must have gotten lax on checking it. Anyway, no pressure light came on so there is still a feed, but now I am all that I've hurt my motor. Link to post Share on other sites

Habakure Posted November 16, 2013 Report Share Posted November 16, 2013 That sinking feeling, when you release an important (tiny) component has just vanished; via the power of the carpet. And no, it wasn't airsoft equipment (this time). Link to post Share on other sites

Habakure Posted November 16, 2013 Report Share Posted November 16, 2013 Strictly Come Dancing. I *fruitcage* hate this show. It's on now and every second is torture. Don't get me wrong, I like musicals, just not dancing programmes about celebrities, trying to get more fame and glory. Time to watch paint dry. Link to post Share on other sites
amateurstuntman Posted November 17, 2013 Report Share Posted November 17, 2013 When shows like that are on I like to imagine the atoms that make up the paint and the "celebrities" infinitely dispersed at absolute zero at the heat-death of the universe. Big improvement Link to post Share on other sites
GuzziHero Posted November 17, 2013 Report Share Posted November 17, 2013 Maybe you cooked something nesting in the machinery. Bloody birds get everywhere I don't think Ive done any harm, there was no other oddness than the smell, and it was about 300ml off the middle of the dipstick. Think I've had a lucky call but I am going to do an oil change on it to be sure. I'm more worried where the oil has gone to, now! Local engineer said "As long as the pump is sending oil, not air, you should be okay". Oh, whilst I am talking about the Griso... I love the bike but whichever idiot gave it only a 17,3l fuel capacity needs to be shot. I can just about make a 110 mile round trip to Sheffield on a tank but am 5 miles into the reserve... Edit: £40 for 4L of fully synthetic Castrol!!! I better be able to pan gold outta this stuff Link to post Share on other sites

GuzziHero Posted November 17, 2013 Report Share Posted November 17, 2013 It wasn't as desperate as I thought. 2.3l came out, 3 went in. I reckon it was 200ml below dipstick. No harm done, it seems! Link to post Share on other sites
shmook Posted November 18, 2013 Report Share Posted November 18, 2013 My car is steaming up like a *bramston pickle*, and I've no idea why. Please no dogging comments, fireknife! It's only been doing it since I had the cam belt changed. Nothing has been spilled, I can't find any blocked drains, no grommets seem missing ( but I think there may be since it's only a recent thing after being pulled to bits...). Also, the demist function on the air con has no effect at all on the windscreen. Half hour journey each way to work, and it doesn't demist. Help? Link to post Share on other sites
