Nope, that's a different idiot. "CEASE FIRE MOTHERFUCKERS" is 100% home grown TFR ca . . . I want to say 2005? It was already a borderline legend when I started posting, so take my regdate and subtract a few.

Tl;dr is that there was a goon meet with a bunch of people shooting stuff, and tannerite was involved. Someone plopped a bunch of tannerite in an empty wooden crate that was something silly like 25 or 50 yards off the firing line and was out there presumably on the logic of "it's fun to shoot empty containers." That's waaaaaay too close to be sticking tannerite in anything, and especially something that will fragment if blown up. Anyways, tannerite goes boom, chunk of wooden box flies back towards the firing line and clocks SkyShark in the dome, queue "CEASE FIRE MOTHERFUCKERS." No one seriously hurt in the end, iirc SkyShark got a scalp cut but that was the end of it. Could have been much, much worse.

OSHA as all fuuuuuck and I'm incredibly glad I wasn't there for that.

I was watching my sister's kids one night and the only things on after they went to bed was a show on private security bunkers and a show on surviving a zombie uprising.

The bunker show was full of OSHA, like a hand rail hooked up to propane to barbecue intruders and a pyramid set on fire with a guy inside to prove it could withstand napalm or something.

The zombie show talked about proper wound care and finding potable water.

lol, yeah. FEMA put together some zombie survival guide stuff that was regular emergency preparedness dressed up to get people to actually read it. I'm pretty sure you could found some kind of horror movie themed version of the boy scouts and end up with a shitload of people with a ton of useful skills.

Was the bunker show Doomsday Preppers?

That's how my uncle's brother died. There wasn't a kite though, he was just drunk and didn't realize how far the electricity would arc.

Technology in Great Britain didn't progress past the steam engine until the early 90s. You can't blame them for not knowing the dangers of electricity any more than you can blame the first hominid to be burned by a flame.

So a bit of "lost fingat" local OSHA. Guy last night blew a giant hole in his backyard by filling an Xbox with explosives (TATp) and setting it off. He apparently has an extremely large amount of additional explosives and the neighborhood is still evacuated about 18 hours after the fact. No word on if it's a boy or a girl :v:

Update on this. Nearly 48 hours later the neighborhood is still closed off. Feds are on scene. It's looking like this wasn't a redneck making explosives for fun but uh, something more sinister.

You're being facetious, but one of Germany's primary aviation fuels in WWII was actually processed from coal.

Skimming over one of the processes, it involves heating up coal to get it to gas off its hydrocarbons, then adding hydrogen while the whole mess is under high pressure and still very hot. Seems appropriately OSHA to me

Not to get too specific and doxx myself (proceeds to get very specific), but a guy that had pipe bombs and a vest ready to go. I would hazard he was testing his explosives and neighbors got a little suspicious when sod ended up on their roofs.

Spookily accurate. Its a gray area but also he died before I was born so I don't really feel right calling him an uncle.

The blood relation firewall that meant my dad's niece and nephew never met my mom's nieces and nephews more than once or twice and I never met my cousins aunt's and uncles always weirded me out.

Just calling everybody who is possibly nearly related by blood or social ties somehow or another "cuz" seems like the correct way to go.

I just do the thing where all of my extended family are cousins if they're around my age, aunts/uncles if they're much older, or nieces/nephews if they're much younger. It's close enough. The only people who care about any finer distinction than that are old Mormon ladies.

This is the pro move. If the family bond is fuzzy, they're a cousin. Known the guy for 35 of my 40 years.. ya cousin.
