flosofl posted:Because the padding is to protect the hands, not the skulls. Gloves make punches worse for the person being hit, not better. Opinions are highly divided on this matter. While headgear will absorbe some of the impact and reduce the amount of cuts, it will also make your head heavier (which adds more intertia to a brain bouncing around inside the cranium), a bigger target, and reduce vision (which makes it harder to dodge incoming blows). The actual benefits from headgear when placed on actual, fighting humans (as opposed to dummies in a laboratory) are debatable. Starting in Rio, Olympic boxing will no longer include headgear, at least for male boxers.

I was pulled over this morning for a random drink driving test, and I asked the cop how many people he pulls over for using their phones playing Pokemon Go. He laughed and said our national debt would be paid back in no time due to the amount of tickets written.

If they're modified to look like real guns or to fire like ball bearings then terroristic threat is probably about right Wouldn't even have to be modified, just firing paintballs is bad enough https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oXeMontXSTI

Aramoro posted:Wouldn't even have to be modified, just firing paintballs is bad enough Being only a small and stupid child when this was aired (as opposed to being large and stupid now) this scared the poo poo out of me and made me terrified of paint balling. Eventually someone wanted to do it for a birthday and the embarrassment of pussying out was slightly greater than my fear of getting PJ'd. So I went a long and really enjoyed it but holy poo poo I wouldn't remove my mask until I was positive I was out the other side of the gun repository and checked that no one had smuggled one out.

Terrorism is the use or threat of violence against a civilian population to effect a change in political, economic, or foreign policy or to otherwise alter behavior. So threatening random people for playing pokemon with violence is p much terrorism.

Older goons are more prone to accidents involving funneling hot tar up their asses with a road cone.

It was actually a blood vendetta oath. But yeah, looking back on it the two weeks of seeping hand wound wasn't worth it since I poo poo on the dude's hood later that same night. Oh well, hindsight is always 20/20 and all that.
