I thought the hormones contributed to him losing 0.08% of his body mass though? So that could have given him an edge.

(schadenfreude on me as i consulted wiki for that number and first had to learn about fox testicles because of course and then the wikipedo with his homemade pic)

I just noticed that door jam to the face guy is actually looking back at that girl behind him. Makes it funnier. He's like "lemme just sneak one last little peak".

The best part of the gif is that he hits the pole and it looks like its because he's looking back at the little girl (because he is a paedophile)

You can't see the lower half of her body because there are stairs there. I assumed it was a high school/college girl.

Is there any pistol that fires that or just revolvers?

Only revolvers, single shot pistols, and lever-action rifles would easily be capable of loading and firing it. Not just because of how violent the recoil would be for an automatic and how beefy the gun and its operating system would be to slow the breech unlocking, but it's a revolver cartridge so it has a rim. It takes some work to get a rimmed cartridge to reliably stack and feed from a box magazine.

There’s the Coonan 1911 that shoots .357 magnum or, back to the murder weapon, a .357 Desert Eagle.

I mean, it’s an impractical novelty either way, so why not?

Because no one is buying enough impractical novelties to pay for the design and tooling.

the mere fact that catholics worldwide didn't give up on catholocism after the whole scandal really started to unravel and that it was plainly obvious that the entire church organization participated in this poo poo...is amazing to me

Lots did. In Canada they've been closing or consolidating churches left and right for decades. Some properties sold to pay off compensation and whatnot. Some closed because they just didn't have enough parishioners left to keep the lights on. In catholic churches 50% of donations get sent to the dioceses, and then some of those onto rome etc, so they need to take in twice as much money as a similarly sized independent church. As the old guard die off the small churches just can't bring in enough to maintain their dilapidated old buildings.

Oh yeah, there's guns that do it. There's even been .38 Special semi-auto target pistols. It's just difficult because the rims love to hang up on each other.

Also, here is Farage getting egged in 2014:

quote:

The man who threw the egg was holding a placard which said: “UKIP… sad, scared, old men”.
He was put into a patrol car by police and driven away.

The protester, who gave his name as Fred from Nottingham, said he had carried out the attack because he did not agree with UKIP’s policies.

He told the BBC: “Egg-throwing is a well established form of political protest in this country. I saw the guys outside the town hall about 10 minutes ago. I went to Tesco, bought some eggs.”

He should have using his vertical leap to jump over the pies.

Also, seeing fascists with sad frowns of utter political defeat is way better than seeing them punched. The punched fascist can become a martyr or still go on to do terrible things, the sad hopeless fascist is a defeated one. Obviously a dead fascist can't cause any harm, but a well developed society and government should be structured in a way that any attempts by fascists result in their sad sad faces.

Ideally I'd like them to be punched, get pied, AND be utterly defeated politically and as a movement.

So were the top 50 other competitors. Armstrong should be punished for his fraudulent lawsuits and lying in court but his winnings are fair since everyone else was doping too.
