Now I understand how Vic Firth first started out of a pepper grinder factory and continued to offer a specialty Vic Firth pepper grinder in addition to drum sticks for years

This is genuinely actually just fine. It's the same as using big stones or better if you hammer rebar through the bags

Except these big stones have a crunchy shell and a powdery middle because water couldn't fully mix with the concrete.

If you don't use enough water, maybe it will be like that until the first good rain you get, but concrete is porous

Nope. Those will set just fine in the middle. If you don't believe me, go leave a bag out in the rain and break it open with a sledge after a week. It's just not rated for holding motorcycles because it's separate blocks that can be moved independently instead of a solid 400lb block.

Reminds me of a video from a while back (that I can't for the life of me find again) about corporate training, new guy is made to take one of the multiple-choice quizzes with blatantly obvious options like "stay sober, be nice to colleagues, etc." and instead picks all of the absurd ones like "get drunk on a worknight, hit on your colleagues, antagonize the cops" while everyone else in the office is looking over his shoulder, completely stunned.

Oh man, its funny in hindsight but this reminds me of desperately trying to get a job, any job, in the 2010's and taking retail quizzes with questions like "do you ever feel the urge to steal from your employer?" worded five different ways. I just spent an hour earnestly pledging I will absolutely not steal from K-Mart. Can I please have a cashier job now? (no)

You answered suspiciously consistently that you wouldn't, and are obviously lying. So no, no job for you.

Try again and answer a little off? No amount of urge to steal is acceptable. No job for you.

if this is the YT channel I used to watch years ago, their safety is hilariously lax but also they had a very firm stance against people asking them to do anything with the water under grid, because even "safety squint" folks know when they're standing next to a standing puddle of metal filings and septicemia.

It guarantees injuries every year. It skirts by on the limits of health and safety but the people demand it happens, so it happens with or without proper organisation.

Cheese Rolling 2023 put six in hospital as 'organisers' told to plan for reducing grim injury toll in future

During the hazardous activity, which saw the winner of the women's downhill race stretchered off after crossing the finishing line, the authorities say people suffered "medical episodes and injuries". This included broken ankles, a broken leg, a suspected seizure, concussions and breathing difficulties after competitors ran down Coopers Hill in Brockworth.

Wow I'm caught up to this thread for I think the first time ever. Best thread on the forums!
Anyway I was watching the parade on Thanksgiving and



The cameraman seemed to be silently judging them because every time there was a lull in the parade he panned back over and zoomed in on them. It was pretty funny. They're definitely up on the second floor and occasionally someone would lean out of the window but these guys were always just standing on the outside like it was no big deal.
