G’day mates.
Good day!
and in case i don’t see you again, “good afternoon, good evening and good morning!”
Psst. Good night.
Bad bye!!
looks like your having some issues spelling g’day, simply replace your ood and the following space with a ‘ and your done.
i live in Australia if you say good day your up yourself, you poof. anyway ENJOY YOUR NEWLY LEARNT SKILLS
i’m willing to bet that knife is actually totally normal sized but the phenomenon of foreshortening makes it seem that large.
/buzzkill.
I don’t think sooo?
That is a machete. The camera angle does make it look bigger, but it should be 24-30 inches long.
i realized it was a machete, but the foreshortening still skews the whole size concept. for instance, the blade looks longer than his entire arm, which is unlikely.
plus, if you look at his hand you can see where the foreshortening distorted his thumb.
Sure, shortright. But combine the phenomena of foreshortening with penile overcompensation, and to the guy holding the sword it’s probably 36-48 inches long.
For instance, it looks like he has friends because the guy next to him is wearing a matching shirt, but since he’s wielding a slingshot at a possible gunfight, it’s unlikely that he’ll stick around.
Well, most of us don’t drive monster trucks regardless.
seeing as how you’re not from the states… i’m not sure if i’m being dense and missing a joke or if you didn’t get the reference that in the states guys tend to overcompensate by driving one of these: {http://www.peopleofwalmart.com/?p=4327}
the guy who drives that truck is guaranteed to be packing something that would be proportionate on a 3 year old. also, he is quite friendly with his hands.
this one is pretty epic too {http://www.peopleofwalmart.com/?p=85}
I love that website. I don’t get how so many people are able to take pictures of the freaks there without getting an ass beating.
i think if i ever saw a PoW worthy person i would attempt to ask him/her/it if i could take their picture… that is unless they looked SUPER scary.
There’s a woman who works in my office building that I would really, really like to get a picture of, mainly due to the manner in which she applies her makeup. Think “12 year old let loose with $500 in credit at Claire’s” for her general fashion sense. Favors such things as half-inch wide bright turquoise glitter eyeliner. I can’t think of any plausible excuse to photograph her, though.
tell her you really like “x” color of her shirt/necklace that she’s wearing and want to be able to show it to your niece/daughter/step-daughter/etc. and then ask if you can take a picture to send a picture message to your niece/daughter/step-daughter/etc.
Or if you have a cell phone with a camera on it, pretend you’re sending a text message and *click*. No, that wasn’t a camera sound. That was the text message sound.
Yay! Nesting comments!
That’s fairly epic yes, but you say “monster trucks” to us, we think of the ones with a blown Hemi, a tube frame and earthmover tyres.
ah yeah, a little different. we have those types too… but in referring to penile overcompensation it generally means a large pickup truck with stupid decals a too high lift kit and an extended cab with every other bell and whistle possible.
*ahem* Don’t forget these. For the man who can’t quite grasp the concept of metaphor, I guess.
i would buy the blue balls and put them on every huge truck i saw if i had the spare cash.
it’d serve them right.
OMG, a coworker had that on her truck. I guess it was her husband’s because I can’t imagine any woman sinking to that level to decorate a truck.
I’ve seen them in silver metallic. And I would SO put it on my car if I had been forced by misbehavior to take a a$$hole of an ex-husband to the legal cleaners! (I’m thinking the probably soon-former Mrs. Mark Sandford)
Foreshortening, photoshopping, sounds enough alike =/
“Foreshortening” sounds like a more PC way of saying “circumcision.”
*snickers*
Forced perspective is the only name I’ve ever heard of for it. Foreshortening sounds like the Brit or Kiwi version of the term.
Alternatively, I’ve heard that the container on the nightstand next to BT’s bed is “for shortening.”
my art portfolio class (in ohio, mind you not brit or kiwi by a long shot) called it foreshortening. every other art class i’ve taken in the last 6 years called it that too. it might be a more modern term…
CAW4, asshole, sounds enough alike :-/
WTF does he cut with that thing?!
Weeds? Underbrush?
Crocs?
zombies… obviously
Failure to prepare is preparing to fail.
no no thats bowie knives
Aaaaaaanything he wants… *backs aways*
The cheese. He has lots of cheese.
I want one
That is a type of Korean sword…
No, not really. It’s just a normal machete.
No…it’s from Doom VIII. It’s the BFK9000.
Bunny Foofoo Kite??
In the G rated version, perhaps.
the slingshot behind adds a nice ironic note too.
I was wondering when someone was going to notice little Dennis the Menace behind the BFK.
Well you have to have a good combination of long and short range weapons.
I thought thats a spoon
It’s a spork, see the tines at the top?
+1 Machete of Intimidation and a Slingshot of Accuracy….
These guys must be fighting a Minotaur or something.
I wanna cast….. Magic Missile!
Ok, roll D30 against your Int.
Think they’ll pull Billy Mays out of the ground to pimp THESE steak knives?
Yes. Yes, it is.
I don’t imagine he carries that around in his pocket, either.
Whoa… It’s the red-shirts mob from the political conflict in Thailand…
Those badass mobs said that it’s just a peaceful and non-violent congregation.
(Bad news, they’re still at large.)
Ah, I see you’ve played knifey spoony before!
Crocodile Dundee FTW.
THIS IS SPARTA!
I’m Spartacus!!11!!
I AM BEOWULF!
I am the walrus! Goo goo g’joob!
West of the Pecos, I am the law.
*steals Rando the Walrus’s bucket*
The slingshot was the second thing I noticed about this photograph. I can also state with reasonable conviction, he’s never used a slingshot in his life.
In my youth, oh so many years ago, I learned how to use one of those babies (home made) with many a bloody thumb to attest to my skills.
This guy is about to be screaming, through the bloody finger he’s holding in his mouth, about 1/2 second after he lets go of his rock.
^this is true.
Why? How does one use a slingshot?
A slingshot is Y shaped. the bottom of the Y is the handle. this is where you balance and aim from. Depending on your strength, and the size of the slingshot, will depend on where you hold it. Because I was small, and the slingshot i had was kind of large, i had to hold it pretty high up the handle to be able to aim properly. The other hand pulls back the rubber bands with the cup that holds the rock.
When you release the rock, it shoots through the V part of the slingshot, and hopefully hits its target. For some reason, people think the rock shoots OVER the V part. It doesn’t.
Take a look at the guy in the picture. notice where his fingers are.
Ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, OW!
You want to make sure that none of your own body parts are in the flight path of your projectile. It also looks like the slingshot is twisted in his hand, but maybe that is due to the angle of the camera. If the slingshot has rotated, then the projectile will hit the slingshot. That won’t be pleasant. If the rock bounces off the slingshot and hits him, that will be even less pleasant.
But hilarious! For us, I mean.
Watch the video in the link to my name. Best Bean Shooter. Ever.
amazing!
You call that a knife?
I call it a machette.
I call it over-compensation.
I mean really. All that to cut a loaf of french bread? Honestly.
Is that Chicago?
No, it’s Minneapolis.
Was that supposed to be funny? I’m going with “no”.
Challenger on Iron Chef wasn’t happy with the results and decided to “take it outside!”
*snort*
*golf claps*
I luv how the first serration is a bottle opener. Beer is important at a riot.
Of course it is, nothing fuels a riot like drunken rage.
Or a family reunion.
Or asking for a three-some.
Where does the rage come in? I can see where the beer would help.
“Why would you want another woman? OMG I DON’T do that. NOT EVEN IF I’M DRUNK!!!!!111111!!!!!!!!”
Clearly you went about that the wrong way.
Some women just aren’t down. It worked out okay in the end. She showed me that I DO NOT need another woman
Lol, yeah, I mean if it results in rage and throwing things rather than, “No, I don’t think I’d want to do that…”; I’m glad it all worked out for you, though!
Ooooh, yes she will. She’s just not drunk enough yet. LOL
Doesn’t matter how many no’s you get. In the end it still only takes one yes.
Nuh-uh! For a threesome, it takes two yes-es. Duh.
Stop it, Rando and ADM! I should not be laughing at rape inuendo!
*snickers*
Or rape “innuendo” either.
Rape innuendo? I thought we were talking about threesomes with another chick.
Lol, Thailand.
exactly. sometimes i’m proud to be thai. hahaha~
Fair enough with the rambo style knife guy, what the hell is denis the menace doing next to him though?
The guy next to him makes me think of an asian Dennis the Menace.
Hey! That one guy looks like Dennis the Menace!!
*ducks and runs*
(3 Dennis the Menace posts in a row for the hat trick!!)
Remind me of the scene of Crocodile Dundee
I’m pretty sure that’s the whole point.
Yeah, that’s kinda why I posted the G’day Mates thing this morning….
I better scene is in the second movie where he is ttrying to recruit the gang to join his cause. And they are like “What do you think your chances are?” and Dundee is like “fair”. And they this one punk with a mohawk is like “what do you think your chances of gettin’ outta here with that jacket on?” and Dundee throws the knife across the room and pinds the guy to the 8×8 support beam behind him and says “better than average.” Its so awesome…
This is the one I described above. Dunee is such a bad ass.
notice the guy behind him with a slingshot XD
JESUS FVCKING CHRIST! That thing is HUGE!
Hmmm…..that’s what she said?
ZING!
Did nobody else get the semi-obscure simpsons refference?
Do tell.
Yeah, Season 6 Bart Vs. Australia! “Disparaging the boot is a bootable offense!”
i got a toybox reference *starts singing the sailor song* DAMN YOU EUROPOP!
It has Materia slots!
Those two protestors are part of the red shirt movement of Thailand. Red-shirters are supporters of ousted PM Thaksin Shinawatra, and their protests have become increasingly violent in the last several years. According to the Bangkok Post, there also are reports of food stands run by red-shirters that have been targets of retaliatory violence. Protestors can number in the tens of thousands, like the 20,000 who protested a government official’s home on September 1.
Wow, the world is going nuts…
Lemme, tell ya, it went nuts long before either you or I were born. But hey, at least it isn’t boring!
They’re at it again… Now they’re burning tires, and the government is bringing out the snipers.
The alternative protesters to the red-shirts are the yellow-shirts, who are royalists who support giving more authority back to H.M. the King instead of the current system of universal suffrage. Thaksin’s supporters claim him as a symbol of democracy, but his detractors see him as a symbol of paternalism and corruption, a wolf in time-tested sheep’s clothing. His populist approach to campaigns and governance won him a lot of support from the rural poor, who constitute most of the population.
Ty ysubassoon.
And ty to punditkitchen for the
