I'm aware of the physics behind the statement I made. I was alluding to the fact that the original poster didn't think about the physics behind his statement, i.e., drawing a simple force diagram would have solved it.

If I'm ever in a home defense situation where I really need the weapon and the lock fails, I'll just take my wrecker bar from beside the bed and break the glass front of my gun cabinet. :P

Lolwut? Speaking as someone who's taken a double tap to the vest and had the cracked ribs that goes along with it, I can tell you that it will knock you on your ass. Okay, I take that back. It definitely knocked me on my ass and had me seeing stars for about three seconds. It actually felt like my best friend Jack…

As one other person said, it was probably around $90 cash trade-in, but I remember the trade-in for merch being higher. I also didn't realize the game release was '98...good lord, I feel old.

The type of bullet that the writer was referring to are called frangible rounds. They are designed for maximum fragmentation on entry to prevent collateral damage. Designed initially for use in pressurized environments (read: pressurized aircraft), they are now also marketed for home defense. As a matter of fact,…

You say this, I hope, with no small amount of hyperbole. But, you are aware that there was a much ballyhooed game in which one shook a baby violently to stop it from crying? And that this game was released on the iPhone? And said app was subsequently removed from said app store, but not after selling a few copies…

It was before they rereleased it as a Greatest Hits disc, because the original pressing was underwhelming in volume for a Final Fantasy release. Probably around 2008 or so.

One of the easiest places to grind is a plains area near the starting town. You'll know it because it has a rock formation that allows you to put two heavy defenders to the front(relatively) and one on an elevated rock formation to the left(again, relatively). With those three in place, you can level pretty much…

I remember the original disc was at one point at some unbelievable trade-in value at Gamestop, something like 130 US dollars. I was tempted, but the game kept dragging me back in. I still have that original PS1 disc and it still plays in my PS2.

Oh man. That was almost as good as the "mutual masturbation in a tornado, but no homo stuff" ad I saw floating on the internet a couple years ago.

+1 Internets.

Yes yes, and Star Wars is just a rip off of Campbell's Hero With a Thousand Faces, Tolkein just ripped off Celtic and Germanic folktales, and Battlestar Galactica is just Wagontrain to the Stars. Nothing is original, but you were into it before it was cool.

The WoW post is from 2008! Jeez. Although, I wonder if she ever did find her arena "partner" in full tier gear.

Are you a professional top player? Maybe those little guys with the rip cords and the tiny arena? Because this was a damn good attempt at a spin job.

I love that game. It's the reason I still own a Gamecube with a mini screen (well, that and paper mario and donkey conga...). The first time my sanity meter peaked and I got the faux reset screen, I almost threw my controller at the wall. After that, it just got better and better.

As a parent with two daughters, I empathize. I don't play any fps's around them anymore, simply because I don't think they are old enough to make the distinction between fantasy and reality. I do play other games with them and around them, but MW3, Black Ops, Halo4, et. al., all wait until they are safely tucked…
