No joke, I knew a weeaboo in HS that saw some anime where a lady cut a tank in half with a wooden katana (bokken, right?). He was 100% convinced that it was possible if "you had the right technique".

This one looks like it's attached to a pressure plate. There are a bunch of different types of switches for setting off IEDs and it's very regional for which is most prevalent.

I think swords were designed in their time and place specifically to kill people in that time and place and to do it well, so comparing them directly is apples and oranges.

This is correct as I understand. The arms war of armor development in Japan was not nearly the same context as heavy broadswords. Before gunpowder in it's setting, the katana is arguably the most efficient mass murder tool invented in it's time (in the hands of a skilled user at least).

Then again Samurai used to ride into town and chop up peasant farmers just to keep their skills sharp and their primary enemies were lucky to have homemade nunchucks to fight back with.

I think any sword would gently caress a person right up whether it's a clay-tempered 1095 steel katana personally fellated by Masamune himself, or loving John Deere lawnmower blade attached to the end of a wiffle bat.

How will the fiscal cliff impact you? The Wall Street Journal offers this helpful infographic detailing the impact of higher taxes on a wide range of affluent Americans, including a typical single mom trying to raise two kids on merely quintuple the median household income.

"Look at how badly these affluent (5%) to upper class (1%) people are hurt by letting a tax cut expire"

Yeah, I remember reading an account from a Gulf War commander that he'd always assign hoodrats as spotters in convoys because a lifetime of having to watch your back gives you a sixth sense of when poo poo ain't right.

But this guy is pulling bombs out of the ground with a goddamn pickaxe and I can't even begin to understand how a person gets to that point in their life.

It's easy! Take 10 thousand people, and randomly blow up half, then randomly blow up half of the ones remaining. Repeat until one man left.
