I've used one of these for my whole adult life: Simply because they do big stuff and fine stuff, and are handy for transferring whatever you've chopped.

happyhippy posted:Who the gently caress colour coordinates books? My wife does. Now at this point I'd post a photo of my digs and cats in front of our rainbow coloured bookshelf, but I guess they changed the SA app and it doesn't work with Imgur like it used to. So just use your imagination or something. Pablo Bluth posted:Has there been case law on where they define "traditional"? I think it's clear that "traditional" is being used as a proxy for expensive, to block anything that could be affordable by "gangs and youths". How cheap can you get a modern katana that has been shaped exclusively by forging/hammering? While I'm not 100% sure on the English laws, here is what the Irish law says in respect of it. https://www.irishstatutebook.ie/eli/2009/si/338/made/en/print quote:(c) by inserting, after paragraph (q), the following paragraph: So basically, it's illegal to have a samurai * sword, unless said sword was made in a traditional method of making sword** Or any Sword made in any method that was made before 1954. As for why specifically 1954 as the cutoff. I don't know. But I suspect it has something to do with how Godzilla was released in cinemas in Japan in 1954. Can't have people using radioactive swords. *= Yes I have huge issues with the legislation putting that name in as part of it, as its not their technical name. Just a colloquial name given to them and you don't put that into law. You don't criminalise possession of "gear" or "china white." ** = Which I imagine is essentially a positive defence that you would advance to say your sword isn't covered by the law. Maybe it would be sufficient to say "I took an angle grinder to a piece of metal until it looked like this kicking rad sword." Since it would have been done by your hand.

Darth Walrus posted:This is also, for the record, the origin of those 'black pyjama' ninja outfits. Those were actually the outfits used by stagehands in Edo-period theatre, to keep them invisible while rearranging sets between scenes. Having the stagehands turn out to be ninjas and assaulting the main characters was a popular way of breaking the fourth wall as a surprise during a performance. Catching up on the thread, an example of these stagehands in action can be seen in this music video by the Scissor Sisters: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HPwc-DpVFdc

I once made a slightly drunk purchase of one of these: An F.Dicks Red Spirit Tanto. It's an absolutely dumb knife. The only purpose I can think of would be to carve large roasts while looking like a dork. It sits in my drawer barely used

The Question IRL posted:*= Yes I have huge issues with the legislation putting that name in as part of it, as its not their technical name. Just a colloquial name given to them and you don't put that into law. You don't criminalise possession of "gear" or "china white." Also reminds me of the (definitely real) amendment to the drugs act done illegally by Alan Johnson (as it was outside of his authority by said act, as there was no veterinarian on the drugs panel, as they had resigned in disgust) to ban mephedrone where his office tried to do most of it themselves and wrote the wrong chemical name down, leading to the subsequent government having to repeal and rewrite the whole thing.

Guavanaut posted:Reminds me of the (possibly apocryphal) proposed act banning nunchucks as "two or more sticks separated by a chain" where a law lord pointed out that as 'a chain' can be read in law as 'a traditional unit equalling 66 feet' they may be accidentally banning cricket instead. This is like where people take the p out of judges saying things like "and who are Ant & Dec / is MIck Jagger / Boris DePfeffel what is a Playstation", it's not because m'luds don't actually know & are "out of touch" (I mean they may or may not or in the case of A&D not know the difference - I don't) , it's that when making laws it has to be phrased in such a way that a century or more from now the law can be applied without people having to find out who these people were or figure out what a Playstation or VHS Video was or whatever. Kids today already aren't oversure about what computers are as they're on their phones all the time and I guess in 100 years for now, humans will either have been killed off completely, reverted to the stoneage, or have implants in their heads that do all the computer & phone stuff.

Yeah British lords especially have a reputation for chatting enormous amounts of poo poo between their naps, see:Lord Farmer posted:I have read about one family doctor working in a leafy suburb in the Home Counties—not a concrete jungle in an inner city—treating growing numbers of teenage girls suffering from the after-effects of frequent anal sex, such as incontinence. (had to search for "concrete jungle anal sex lords" to find that, so will be getting some great ads) That's like the opposite of nominative determinism if the Lord Farmer thinks people out in the countryside only started doing it in the butt because of the internets. crispix knows what they used for birth control. But in the case of the chain = 66 feet in laws lord, that's actually a correct read due to the various Regulation of Railways Acts and property cases, and it would be down to the good judgment of those involved to assume that it didn't refer to the martial art of cricket.

We used (use still I assume - we did 17 years ago) chains as a measurement all the time in the railway.

Yeah it's more the idea that it's only a thing for 'city people' that's ridiculous. And I'm going to guess coded homophobia by the Lord. (They talk to gays, Sodom and Gomorrah and all that.) City people had contraceptives back when country people had to find other ways around, so he's talking out of his birth control entrance.

(They talk to gays, Sodom and Gomorrah and all that.) I had assumed it was just a bit of racism on the part of the Lord. (Talk of concrete jungle, being a reference to cities having non-white populations. From there it wouldn't take long for someone to fall into the racist stereotypes of over-sexed inner city types, wrecking their bums by having too much bum sex.) Failed Imagineer posted:Ireland also excelled at that kind of stupidity So this wasn't (technically) stupidity more laziness. Basically, different drugs were added to the Misuse of Drugs Act through S.I (Statutory Instrument, where a Minister could ammend or enact legislation without having to always have full parliamentary debates.) This and off itself isn't a problem as there are reasons why you need to allow a Minister to sign a letter that says "this Law passed last month can now go into Effect." Where it was a problem was new drugs were being added (which was due to minor variations being made to the chemical formula of illegal substances to make them not illegal. So they had to keep adding new drugs and then start criminalising chemical formulas and derivatives of said formula.) And the Court of Appeal ultimately said that the Ministers had gone too far in criminalising so many different drugs without a proper debate. Thus leading to a situation where they were all legal for about 48 hours while the Government convened and had a situation where they "debated" about criminalising each one of about 100+ drugs. (I think they had to give at least 5 minutes to each specific drug debate. Sounds like it would have gotten very tedious very quickly.)
