Boy Scout Merit Badge for Cyber-Citizenship goes to Mr. Clod!

I'd have sent them pictures to haunt their dreams.

There's an annual summer event here called "Jaws on the Water," where they put up a projection screen on the lakeshore and people float in inner tubes watching the movie. Pretty cute, yeah? Except I just found out that Mr. Clod's boss is one of a team of local scuba divers they hire to sneak up and grab people from under the water in the middle of the movie.

Then prepare your razor blade and poison spike chaps in advance.

16yo son added "Airman Goggles" to the family shopping list some time last night.

Apparently he's thinking ahead to Halloween just in case he can persuade a friend and find a third person to torment the neighborhood dressed as the Spanish Inquisition a la Monty Python.

(I probably shouldn't have asked....)

sexobon · 02-11-2018, 01:19 AM

Meh, just tell him to wear a hockey helmet and put some swimming goggles on it.

monster · 02-11-2018, 11:29 PM

monster · 02-11-2018, 11:30 PM

I was just amused to find it there between the potatoes and shampoo

Griff · 02-12-2018, 05:56 AM

pretty sure the vintage flying gear is in that aisle.

Gravdigr · 02-28-2018, 01:38 PM

It was amusing after-the-fact. Mildly.

I thought that since ppl read my posts bitching and moaning about that, that thing, so much over the last year, or three, or four, someone might get a chuckle outta the final fit.

It was actually a fairly calm episode. kind alike "Well, fuck."

It's still out there, btw.

And I'm still finding glass. How can so much glass be in my room, and so much glass still be attached to the thing?

Gravdigr · 02-28-2018, 01:41 PM

That's an interesting business model, though. Build a product that bricks itself on updating. And then push the fucking update.

It's not up there with building a better mouse trap, is it?
