there is simply so much to work with here:
Quote:

It's all part of a very intricate plan "my son". Style with substance. Little do you know that that collar has a anti-garrote protection metal band inside it. The rectangular metal collar adornment is to facilitate the trapping of the wire (professionals always use thin wire, not rope; it is less visible while being slipped over the victims head (less reaction time), has a degree of stiffness that allows a smooth movement to occur, cuts quickly and deeply into the neck, and does not allow for fingers to slip beneath it no matter the level of desperation) under that point so it does not slide up past the protection. This allows for roughly 1-2 seconds to allow me to administer a death blow to the would-be garroter who is concentrating soley on this one act and not on self-protection (which is completely natural, -thinking- he has the ultimate upper hand). Actually, he never even gets the chance to think "Big mistake".

Little slips, tiny errors, insignificant faux pas, like "abot" versus "about", are things that can not be tolerated in my world. The enemy is always to be considered deadly and the razors edge is always close. (Really; unseen by anyone in the photograph above, or in real life, my thumbs always remain exposed as they have very tiny Trac2 razor pieces super glued to the end of my thumbnails (which are always kept very short to increase the stiffness factor). If I tucked them in, or did not pay critical attention to their position at all times, many things would be sliced. The dominant pupose of this is to negate the movement of other martial arts assailants wishing to control my body (via sympathetic nerve response) through manipulation of my thumbs; what you can not touch (or hold on to), you can not control or substantially influence. This is even more valid when surprized and spurting blood from key points, as the assailants attention is then divided. Once again, the thought of "Big mistake" usually never gets to be formed.)

Take the sunglasses for example, they have tiny, tiny mirrors attached at the inside upper corners near the temple edges of the frame. This allows one to see behind themselves. Sneak up on me? ... let's say it altogether now: "Big mistake".

Knowledge is power. The proper utilization of power results in victory. Victory always results in life. Life is a state of mind. Too bad I have to get old.
how could we NOT do it?

So he's got razors in his thumbs?

Happy Monkey 06-15-2004 04:11 PM

Hee. I missed that bit.

Clodfobble 06-15-2004 04:25 PM

Yeah, he uh, removes them, cuts his nails, and reglues them every other day. Yeah.

Slothboy 06-15-2004 04:29 PM

My tin foil hat makes aliens unable to penetrate my thoughts. Their failed attempt will be met with confusion and in the 1-2 seconds that it takes for them to realize what is happening I will snap their necks. Not even enough time for them to think, "Big mistake."

Why does this guy remind me of Don Cherry?

warch 06-15-2004 04:36 PM

Its the high collar...that dapper-ness. But hes no Don Cherry. Coach would take him down a notch.

Some time over Easter weekend we were watching Coach's Corner and Cherry had on an obnoxious purple velvet suit. He actually said he wore it on account of Jesus. Thanks Don!

But Coach appears to be a right-winger...they might get along.

I think they would have trouble both being the alpha male.

Rich could see the ninja team approaching, he readied the throwing knives hidden in his armpits while waiting for them to get close and make a BIG MISTAKE

perth 06-17-2004 05:51 PM

Another couple of past cellarites had some really good animated images, was it Ike's owner and someone else? I'm gonna go dig out those threads.

lumberjim 06-17-2004 07:27 PM

York 06-21-2004 06:56 AM

York 06-23-2004 10:05 AM

Darn, colors didnt work out so well....

jaguar 06-23-2004 11:12 AM

signs you spend too much time in front of graphics apps: Looked at the wrestling photoshop and my first that was - 'i have that font'.

York 06-23-2004 11:26 AM

im Belgian and speak a fairly bit off English, but sorry dude, i couldnt understand what you said....I followed graphics class years ago, but changed to a social job, i just cut and paste some pics and see how funny they are....Yep, im a big kid!!

lumberjim 06-23-2004 11:30 AM

he's just noting that he recognizes the font used on the macho-man's tshirt in cains last post.

Undertoad 06-23-2004 12:05 PM

And now, in 1st year English using present tense common verbs, easy nouns, and no idioms or culture-bound terms : :)

Jaguar sees the letters in Cain's picture, on the man's shirt. He has the same style of alphabet on his computer.

York 06-24-2004 02:05 AM

OOohhhh was that it? It was indeed a lot easyer how you wrote it! Tnx! Never had English, but speak it at work so....

Undertoad 06-24-2004 06:01 AM

I learned French in school, and I remember what was easy and what was hard. Hard: uncommon verbs, different tenses, and anything that "plays" with the rules.

It is difficult to write without using words and phrases that a language student understands. I think about how people understand language. I try to choose words that I think people will know. I use only present tense. To write well you must use more words with more subtle meanings that foreign readers do not understand. I am sad that we lose meaning when we communicate. If we communicate well we improve the world.

jaguar 06-24-2004 07:15 AM

Tenses and uncommon verbs are probably one of the easier areas of french - they almost always follow some quite small set patterns though the sheer number of tenses can take a while to get used it. (not to mention the razor edge phonetic difference between some) The bigger problem is bloody irregular verbs where you simply have to learn them one by one, particularly for present tense but often for other tenses as well.

elSicomoro 06-24-2004 08:26 PM

Like Spanish, though it's not as difficult phonetically as French.

York 06-25-2004 07:36 AM

I had never had a language-class or anythnig, i speak and write in French, German, English and Dutch
...Italian, Spanish.., Arabic..all some words , but to hard to try learn them now... All the slang people use in different area's that another thing...
