When I'm in a hotel at night I clean my pistol, then hope that somebody tries to steal my truck. :grin:

When I'm in the hotel at night I am wishing that there was a night shift, so that I could get off days!

cumminsguy71,
I know I am going to get hammered for this but I do not care.

Do you not think with all the problems your country is having with indiscriminate killings it is pretty stupid to post that you hope someone tries to steal your truck so you can go out and shoot them ?

Is it true that owning a gun is the same as having a penis extension ?

Boy, somebody is uptight. Its jobsite talk my friend, many have said the same thing then we laugh and joke. My apolgies for offending you. See the smiley face after my post, I was JOKING! Usually I just watch Pawn Stars as it always seems to be on wherever I go.

No, it is not. It's far better than penile enhancement surgery. You can let your female and male friends shoot that kind of gun.... :grin::yell:

Which is Much better than the penile enhancement creams. I tried those and it sorta worked but I also got a larger hand (I'm not ambidextrous). Had to start buying two different size gloves and became rather expensive so I tapered off....

Hello John, your attachment appears to have great therapeutic value. I tend to gravitate towards those sorts of things as stress relievers as well. Fire Away! The weapons that is. Best regards, Allan
Parent - - By Superflux (****) Date 03-05-2013 22:39
Allan,
Weapons???
I don't own any weapons. Especially "Assault Weapons".
None of the above pictured high and low capacity, precision engineered, lead projectile, delivery devices have never ever assaulted any humans or animals.
I have a single shot T/C Contender 30-30 caliber handgun for my grocery grabber. "One Shot, One Kill"!
Yes, these are excellent stress relievers, keep me company and allow me to sleep well at nights.
Parent - By aevald (*****) Date 03-05-2013 22:42
I guess I did refer to the stress relievers in that manner didn't I? My bad!
Parent - - By jrw159 (*****) Date 03-06-2013 13:06
Assault Weapons?? No, no, no....

Those are "Personal Defense Weapons"!!! :lol:

At least for the Department of Homeland Security they are. :evil:

I do like your definition better though.

Just don't get caught chewing your food into the likeness of a gun when you meant to make a mountain out of your poptart instead.:wink:

Common sense is truley a thing of the past.

Evidence of no more common sense

When has a 7yo ever used good judgement while playing with their food at school? Now a kid who saw the "gun" is getting therapy for the emotional distressed caused by this gun shaped pastry.
Parent - By Cumminsguy71 (*****) Date 03-06-2013 02:15
I was wondering how we got off on "penis extensions" then noticed I missed it in the original lashing I received, guess my subconscious figured it was not important enough to notice.

Nice collection Superflux!! Especially like the rifles! Wish I could find a range around here where you could shoot some paper at distances over 200 yards. Look like some good tack drivers you have there.

Never used the enhancement creams, occasionally have to use "Nair" though!! :lol::lol:
Parent - By Sourdough (****) Date 03-07-2013 05:09
Superflux...ha ha.....mmmmhah ha ha....hee haw ha.....good show!
Parent - By DaveBoyer (*****) Date 03-06-2013 03:23
I have owned firearms since I was 14.
I don't shoot much anymore, but it was a big part of My life for a bunch of years.

Penis extension ?:confused: Mine has always been long enough to make Me happy...:grin:

There not bad, whats bad is switching back and forth every month.
Parent - - By weldwade (***) Date 03-05-2013 04:45
I worked shift work for 13 straight years. Switched from days to nights every week. I worked 14 out of 28 days so the time off was what made it worth it. At this point I would welcome it back!!!
Parent - - By Chris2626 (***) Date 03-05-2013 13:04
Thats gotta be ruff, I had a uncle that switched every week for I think well his entire career. I know guys around me when I worked shift work every month a lot of these guys were having heart attacks and I had experienced some weird things and said no thank I gotta get out of this, plus wasn't to crazy about working there anyways but i can only figure it was the crazy switching back and forth bs.
Parent - - By Cumminsguy71 (*****) Date 03-05-2013 17:12 Edited 03-05-2013 17:16
I've worked nights and not bad in the spring, summer or fall. Especially in the hot summers when the humidity drops and it cools off. Its not something I would care to do for a long time though. Another plus to nights, big dogs are all home asleep so you don't have them butting in with interruptions. There are some positives like being quieter, less people around but probably more negatives.
Parent - By Superflux (****) Date 03-05-2013 18:28
If they had left the straight night shift that I put together when in the Coal Mine, I would have stayed and could have retired last year...
Rotating shifts wasn't as bad on me as some folks. I had a couple of welders on my crew that were just plain dangerous from sleep deprivation when on nights.

I'm married so there's two reasons I do not have guns in the house.

1) If there is ever a night break in or strange noises, I send my wife to investigate.
2) I probably wouldn't be alive today if my wife had access to a gun. I can rest comfortably knowing she doesn't have access to a gun so I may live to see another day.

Best regards - Al
Parent - - By Cumminsguy71 (*****) Date 03-06-2013 17:10 Edited 03-07-2013 11:22
Hahahaha!!!!! With all the weapons I have in my house Al I could only hope that she would just shoot as opposed to the other options!

Y'all let me know when you can shampoo a buffalo at 10 yards......

OH GOD

Ummmmjm I think all Shawn meant was the freaking indiscribable boredom you get being stuck at the ramada inn for 3 weeks.  Get a grip you damm oversensitive liberal jackassess.

It's like that price is right game where old Bob let's you drop the disk and it bounces off all the pegs....you never have a clue which slot the disk will end up in....(laugh)....
Parent - - By Sourdough (****) Date 03-09-2013 19:29
Update.....no more nights, I've had 2 jobs since then.
Parent - By Tommyjoking (****) Date 03-12-2013 03:18
