NEW FORUM RULES 9/07/08 — Please Read!

[Hazcat]

I suggest a new ZOMBIE hunt. What do you think? 44's or bigger only, or can the pee wee's play too ?

I think we should let the 'pee wee's' play, too.  I for one, have always liked those little 44s.

Fuzdaddy....and everyone...

Do whatever you have been doing.. Organize whatever you want..
Critique whatever you want.. talk about whatever you want.
Things really haven't changed from what they have always been..
The rules have always been there.. it's just now they have been read by everyone.
No big deal.
I'm still going to vent ..and bitch a bit..and throw out some unlady like terms..and in general..
continue to be the pain in the ass I usually am..

99% sure it is English. There are a couple of words I can't quite make out. But I'm 100% sure Kumbaya is NOT English. I think it's a Creole dilect called Gullah which I don't speak or understand at all. Tonight I think I finally know what that word means for the first time in my life. Does anyone here speak Geechee?

"Kumbaya" (also spelled Kum Ba Yah) is a spiritual song from the 1930s. It enjoyed newfound popularity during the folk revival of the 1960s and became a standard campfire song in Scouting and other camping organizations.

Wikpediai quote, emphasis mine:

The song was originally associated with unity and closeness, but more recently is also alluded to sarcastically to connote a blandly pious and naively optimistic view of the world and human nature.[

It is Gullah for 'Come by here'.  I don't even want to Hazcat a guess how you knew that, jumbofrank.

I think the moral of the story here is this:

Dont rant in the forums, rant in the chat rooms where nothing can be tied back to you or this site.


Marshal-

Maybe we need a new chat room

    *  DRTV Cafe Chat
    * Handguns
    * Tactical Rifle
    * Ranting and product bashing


Jokes people. Jokes.

I'd get on the chat room but I can't get the damn thing to work (plus I don't type fast enough).

You're right Ksail it's my fault because I even though I was actually starting to just enjoy clever ways of busting on the "Big R" I was still unhappy with my purchase and just didn't consider what else might be going on.

Perhaps one difference between MB and myself is that he gets to try everything and owns a lot of stuff and a lot of it gets jazzed up by top shelf gunsmiths, etc. The pistol that sunk an thousand ships here represents a sizeable percentage of my miniscule collection of basically stock merchandise, and so it was pretty upsetting to have one of them on the turd list. I mean, I got that for my birthday!

So I'm all better now, sort of. I'm working on that turd polish I mentioned and some other projects, and if you ever need to rant I volunteer to accept any of your rants that need releasing.

As a group we are finding ourselves on two ends of a situation, and we just have to work it out.
By the way, I've been working on the paperweight a little and I think I might be on to something with a mechanical therapy technique I'm trying. Yesterday I went to the range (evidently when all this crap was expoding) and I threw 10 rounds with my hand, then fired ten through the paperweight and actually did BETTER with the paperweight. When I have confirmed my method I'll post it in case anyone else still wants to give it another crack.

Yeah, we're on the same page...thanks for the OPPORTUNITY to wrote on the Zen of a turd...I feel so Cartman-ish...

Michael, Yellow may work on your AR, it doesn't work on a white background      I had to quote it to get it in a color combo I could see     Considering the subject I'm surprised you did not use brown. But you never really answered the question. In the context of Kmitch's question if a company makes a sledge hammer out of non tempered glass, yes, that is a turd, if a gun company makes a gun that CONSISTENTLY fails to function properly like the reputation of a certain companies .22 skeeter, then that is a turd.
The important wording is CONSISTENTLY FAILS TO FUNCTION PROPERLY If the Grip, Magazine, slide, trigger and sights fail to work properly only a fool would trust the safety.

It is Gullah for 'Come by here'.  I don't even want to Hazcat a guess how you knew that, jumbofrank.  

TWYacht and NCWolf, You should be ashamed of yourself s as "Gullah" comes from the Coastal Carolina area, JUST LIKE YOU, but it took a guy from PENNSYLVANIA to come up with this.    (Wouldn't have had a clue what he was talking about if my son hadn't watched "Gullah Gullah Island back in the 90's  )

Hazcat a guess.    I almost missed that. I could just say IT'S A MYSTERY. Or I'm really smart.    Or after I said it wasn't English I looked at a few pages online and one was the wiki you mentioned. It said it's Carribean-African Pidgin English or something like that. HUH??? Gulla? Gulluh? Creole? GeeChee? I wasn't sure I had that right in the other post. It sounds like it could be a couple of different things. The only thing I knew was that it wasn't English, but for decades didn't know what language it was or what it meant. No one I ever asked knew either, no matter how many times they sang it. This is the first time I came across it since I've had a computer so I searched and tada, there it was.

Which brings up an unrelated subject. I was in the doctor's office last week and there was a calander from Cialis on the wall and it had the generic name on it too. So here's this hardon pill and the actual name of it... this is SOOOO funny... are you ready for this... if you're eating or drinking please swallow before reading the rest... you'll thank me later... the first 4 letters are... TADA!!! It causes erections for 36 hours. TADA!!! When I left his office I talked to a couple of pharmacists about it, did the "magic trick" hand gestures and everything, and we all cracked up. Did they pick a great name for that product or what? I can picture a guy waliking into the bedroom showing his wife. TADA!!!  Look what I can do! TADA!!!

You can do whatever you want as long as you don't chew tobacco and spit. That's just not ladylike.

I didn't know you got a turd for your bithday. That makes things different. That never even happened to Charlie Brown or Rodney Dangerfield. Please accept my apology for my comment the other day. I didn't know. And no I don't want to take it off your hands. That goes for other peoples turds too. No thanks.

I never saw Gullah Gullah Island but thought it was as real as Seasame Street. Was the show about one of those real islands?
