Remember how Backyard Scientist discovered during a video on power tool safety that he could turn a table saw into a lethal cannon?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fnx3ipM-rqA

Gonna out myself but when I heard "table saw cannon" I immediately remembered the Grinder from Red Faction Guerilla, where you play a Martian miner who leads a socialist revolution against a corporate military using scrap and salvaged weapons. In this case, the Grinder fires grinding disks and rotary saw blades.

If you upgrade it enough, they explode on impact. Otherwise, the blades stay jutting out of corpses and can be retrieved and used again. There's also multiple game modes where you obliterate buildings with giant mechs. The whole game is extremely OSHA in the best way and profoundly satisfying to a frankly troubling degree. Like there's moments in game where you're clearly supposed to sneak in and neutralize targets carefully but it's almost always quicker/safer to cover a dump truck with explosive charges and ram it through the propane tank at the rear of the prison.

Haha, weird how typing this whole post out made the game magically reinstall itself on Steam.

Because tryhard caring about an, at this point, 10 year old videogame, is way less cool than being a train driving iron forging truckfuckling badass like most of the posters itt

edit- uhhh actually i mean hello my foremen and forewomen and forepeople, how is the laboring today? ah, arduous and physical as always? perfect. i love to exert myself, via my muscles, which are developed for this sort of thing.

Is truckfuckling when the (pink) mama truck suckles the baby trucks of a different manufacturer?

It's this classic Brad Neely bit but with a monster truck instead.

My new year's resolution is to get senior truckfuckler on my cv.

incidentally i have a video for this as well. it sounds like the truck backfires a few times, are there any other risks associated with this kind of truckfuckery? like it's obviously not good i'm just curious why.


B) thanks friend. happy new threadtitlesmas day to all!

Also that video game is awesome.

This is 100% an accurate representation of the game. you will spend half your time trying to get trucks in places trucks should not go and half of the other time looking at explosions.

Phiz, the inspector at the factory just called us back, it's clean. Cleanest he's ever seen a parts plant. I hate to say it, but this might be the territory marking acts of an automodius fuckulatus majesticus, and you know how bad even a single Greater Crested Truckfuckler is for anyone who has to park a tractor inside their territory. God help us all if it's mating season already. No way am I gonna get the fuckulatus traps out of storage and try to capture one of those huge bastards, not after the last one cut my brake lines. We're gonna have to call in the feds to handle this, maybe those CVSA guys can send us a kill team?

The Greater Crested is extremely endangered given that it's preferred mating habitat is trucks with tailfin lights. No calling the feds on this, EPA'd shut the whole site down. No, we need a toothless Jethro with an atlatl and nothing going on this weekend.

yeah there are a handful of things that are never moral to profit from, including:

i knew an Occupy fella who was a compulsive liar (oh i was special forces in Iraq) who called himself Cowboy who, after a near fight where I pointed out his compulsive lying, he promptly ran off to a rail yard, hopped the first train he assumed was going to California, got busted in Buffalo New York, and when he called another occupy fella to bail him out (this is a 7 hour car ride away) instead asked this fellow about putting a down payment in his name for loving Star Citizen of all things.

Also played a few shows with anarchist bands who would travel via train hopping, i walked past a pair of ladies airing out their pits, one of whom was loudly complaining that she "stank like gas station hot dogs" as i was on my way to go get dinner at a gas station.

i didn't get the dogs.

Catholic rules lawyering is some cheeky obtuse interpretations of guidelines worded poorly by the clergy. Jewish rules lawyering is an effort by an entire class of priests to research ways to get one over on God without violating the Covenant.

Hand to G-d reading old Rabbinical debates will give anyone who played table-top role playing games in high school loving flashbacks. Pedantic nerds are unchanged since the dawn of scripture itself.
