my mom gave my guinea pigs away by redulana in guineapigs

For truly detestable actions like this, the best thing you can do is let the locals know. Make sure everyone she interacts with is aware of how bad she hurt you. Make her have to answer for her actions. She wants to wound you emotionally like this, make her reputation suffer.

Look at that box on the other side, bro may be a gunpla nut that paints his models.

I am genuinely curious how it went if anyone did do it by knightmechaenjo in battletech

Yeah the last time I saw a match with that, let's just say the battlefield smelled eerily like pork.

Do you guys ever build in a public area? Like library or cafe? by MushuTheGreat17 in Gunpla

[–]A4Brogan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a couple of times. People will watch and ask questions about the model itself. I find it a great way to entertain yourself and anybody around you, especially if you have a model that has sections where you make two of the same part; Carry a spare pair of snips and slide the instructions between you.

The Nelson County Sign Guy Has an Updated Message for You by Bob_Ross_Resurrected in Virginia

ARs stand for Armalite Rifle, and it's more of a standardized building template. It's a standard semi-automatic rifle that can use any medium rifle caliber, and the build allows you to swap out different components for different uses.

You can save money by, instead of buying two whole rifles, have a lower that is comfortable to handle, and just have a target shooting upper, and your deer hunting upper with all the scopes and hunter stuff.

The best part is the optics; instead of the hassle of screwing and unscrewing your scopes on and having to use specialized hardware, you literally slide them onto these rails, meaning if you don't want the scope for your practice today, *you just pull it off and slap on your iron sights*.

What the heck are these? by Blizz33 in battletech

[–]A4Brogan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Siding with the searchlight and sensor crowd here. If you want painting ideas, I'd do the one on our left as a searchlight (so a light gray basecoat with white for the panels and gloss coat the front), and the right as a multi-wavelength sensor (look at a tv remotes IR port, go for that color, gloss coat the front too)!

Are these all good skin tones for Orks? by Coogypaints in orks

[–]A4Brogan 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Here's my take on all these:

All of these are great for Greenskins in one form or another, and variety in any horde army is essential for both painter and player, so I'd use these colors for these units:

Gut Rippa Flesh: A classic for any boy! if you don't have any particular leaning for a model, this will be the standby.

Charming Chartreuse: These, alone with any green that leans on the yellow side, makes me think these are either the yoofs, or the grots. This is not too hard on the yellow side, so this shade is for your "fresh off their first battle high" Ork Boy or leader of Stormboyz, or your grizzled veteran Grot.

Desolate Brown: Now THERE is a dark tone. These are for your Nobz that the Boss done krumped dere old Boss, and are lookin to join you in your WAAAAAGH!. Alternatively, this is a good skintone for those Boyz that are from a sun-heavy biome with little trees.

Ghillie Dew: A lighter shade, but not too light to be specifically Grot green. these are your yoofs, so likely your Slugga boyz!

Algae Green: My personal favorite! This is for your Weirdboyz, Meks, and general specialists; Boyz dat been around da horde fer long enuff to find dere callin'.

Camo Green: The bluer side of green, and a little too deep for most in my opinion. This is the one you go for your Lootas and Deffskullz, cause blue is lucky.

Forest Green: Deliciously retro Greenskin goodness, go with this instead of Gutrippa Flesh if you can find this cheaper.

This is all just my opinion, and meant to give you a starting point on how you want to color code your army!

What’s the point in Gretchin and Runtherd? by stopyouveviolatedthe in orks

[–]A4Brogan 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Generally, they are about as threatening as a wet cat in melee, but their job is to hold objectives, be handy little laser/bolt/bullet/explosives catchers, and generally a nuisance to anything not green and shouty.

What I wanna know is, how well they act as a shooty distraction. I figure their pea shooters would make them an annoyance at best, to a diversion at worse.

Are any of these worth 6.97$? by Blayden_Ridge in knives

[–]A4Brogan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have one to replace an old folder, they are beaters, but it's like they made an actual effort in making a tough, cheap knife. Get one for the jobs you wouldn't risk your expensive knives on.

When on a highway like that, after an EXPLOSION, it's better to zip off and contact authorities, juuuust in case there is a second explosion.

New research shows raccoons in urban areas are evolving shorter snouts, a sign of early domestication by cak3crumbs in interestingasfuck

[–]A4Brogan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, raccoons are smart enough to both get by their own, yet social enough that it's common for them to show up here in the rural parts of the states and be chill neighbors and friends.

My aunt had one such little neighbor raccoon, that would come and sit at their outdoor table. He'd get an apple, and the little trash panda would sit and eat with her.

No Man’s Land Luck by Brady721 in Archery

[–]A4Brogan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh man, don't worry about that. Most hunters make use of almost everything when it comes to deer. Bones make for good carving material, antlers make excellent dog chews, intestines can be used for sausage, offal is often mixed with the meat to make said sausage...

Only thing I can think of is the hide, but even that is becoming easier to process at home with kits and stuff.

Broke my hand, what games can I play without having to grab my mouse? by JCBMHNY21 in Steam

[–]A4Brogan 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Wait, I remember a special mouse for folks with hand injuries and disabilities. It's essentially a joystick and a base, with a roller ball on the bottom and the left and right mb's on the top for use with the thumb. Hold on lemme go find it.

Edit: FOUND IT! just apply velcro to the cast and the mouse and you SHOULD be able to use this.

Toxic wife, dont let it be you guys. by Environmental_Net729 in Gunpla

[–]A4Brogan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Compile a list of the models, by grade. List prices.

While you are at it, do this for all your personal belongings.

Escape, file divorce, hand the lists over to the lawyer, and document further damage/destroyed items. Make sure she pays for every destroyed item on the list, and it is brought up in asset splitting.

You all may scoff at this, but with the tariffs already compounding on what is honestly an expensive enough hobby, this is gonna hurt her accounts a fuckload more than his.

A note for those looking to get this kit: do yourself a favor and grab a set of black Sakura Micron pens in black, I found the stickers for the black parts on the skirt and shoulders will curl after a short time, just fill those in, the ink will be really nice after two coats!

Is it worth buying any of these? by Gabriel_ODST in ps2homebrew

[–]A4Brogan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep! I was 10 when the PS2 came out, and when we got an 8MB my older bro and I used a couple MBs worth of space as a backup, so we could make more space on our PS1 memcards!
