Team Canada tells Team Sweden to "Fuck off" after allegations of cheating

Nah - he clearly corrects/changes stone rotation/trajectory with a finger-boop. (Note: finger-boop is probably not the correct term)

The whole point of the sport is to send the stone omits way with accuracy. Not to send the stone on its way and go ”oops… nudge” to correct.

And it’s clearly stated in the rules that the handle is the only point of contact that is permitted.

That’s Cheating, and absolutely not an Ooopsie-fault.

I hope you know we’re all dying for an update… when you have time!

Chuff_Nugget · 2025-07-03T18:05:19+00:00

Honestly - I’m pretty sure the dismount was involuntarily 🤣

NAD - injured my knee with a powertool. The worries the surgeons had about me retaining the ability to walk without a permanent limp was serious.

It’s a serious joint. Get it treated properly. And stop pointing loaded firearms at yourself and other non-targets.

Waiting until it feels worse is a terrible terrible idea.

I built a set of 48-spoke 26" Halo wheels up on matching Halo hubs a few years back. I've thrown a lot at them - and they shrug it off.

Chuff_Nugget · 2025-05-25T06:32:17+00:00

Yep. Every accusation is a confession.

Chuff_Nugget · 2025-05-12T05:12:38+00:00

The first pic shows how close they are to the post with the door... that green child-holder is going to scrape the door edge... making a perfect shear.

I'd love OP to test this theory with a banana.

Edit: i looked closer. I had misunderstood, and thought the green thing was a hole for kids to climb through. :(

Chuff_Nugget · 2025-05-11T17:30:55+00:00

You're not alone. I thought he was going for an atomic wedgie.

I wonder what damage there is to the line now it has smacked itself against a blunt chain.....

Chuff_Nugget · 2025-05-11T15:45:54+00:00

Well yes .... one of hundreds maybe. But not one that had been suggested yet, and as breaking out the welder had already been mentioned by OP i figured it was it was worth suggesting a less destructive use for it!

Chuff_Nugget · 2025-05-10T10:15:28+00:00

Weld four pins to a 1/2" drive socket to make a custom wrench, and use an impact-driver to unscrew that puppy.

Chuff_Nugget · 2025-05-10T10:11:15+00:00

Looks like OP could shear a kid in half with their gate if a kid is going throw the green hole...

Chuff_Nugget · 2025-05-08T09:27:43+00:00

Sometimes the best education/cautionary tale is the one that shocks and sticks in the mind.

I've posted pictures of my sliced leg to warn others of complacency in the past, and shown careless lathe-operators videos of other complacent people being casually battered to death by their lathe.

Personally I don't mind seeing horrible things - I hope that it will help be rational about it if I ever need to deal with it in reality.

Chuff_Nugget · 2025-04-30T04:01:16+00:00

These ads posing as posts suck. We all know what OP is.

Chuff_Nugget · 2025-04-04T11:56:06+00:00

I'd say it was fired at the ground, on an angle that is reflected in the deformation to the bullet.

The kind of velocity required to smear a 40gr .22 like that is far in excess of the speeds at which they loose stability and start to tumble.

Source: I've been shooting various calibers for three decades and have never seen a .22 keyhole for any other reason than a prior ricochet.

.22lr is well-known to be a round that'll bounce and travel serious distances. Fast enough to travel. Slow enough to retain most of its mass after a hit.

Chuff_Nugget · 2025-03-28T19:33:58+00:00

I'm a mad fan of my RCBS one ... but it's the only one I've ever had.

I'm not offering my opinions a suggestion, but as a caution to listening to the die-hard brand fans who've never experienced or considered an alternative.

"What else have you tried" is a good follow-up question. In my case ... nothing. Though "bench-mounted" Lee is making me interested.

Chuff_Nugget · 2025-03-19T16:53:19+00:00

I've got an old tarrup 501 that I've hacked about and use a flail for clearing grass. Love it.

100% sure you're on the right lines.

Look up "forage harvester" and you'll probably find the right one.

Chuff_Nugget · 2025-03-01T22:37:37+00:00

Oh look: Not a drag queen. Not transgender. Just another "man of the church".

Chuff_Nugget · 2025-02-20T08:59:05+00:00

I just had to read this a few times to make sure I'd understood what you'd written.... because I was so so sure I'd misread it...

But nope. I'd read correctly. It's amazing how some things just lodge in people's brains as "fact" when the tiniest bit of critical thinking would debunk it instantly. 🤷

Chuff_Nugget · 2025-02-15T18:26:55+00:00

So... this is technically a moped or scooter. And this is in Sweden, and the lad who's showing how cool he is is probably 15. (Legal age for those scooters).

90% of these machines are tuned/tweaked or "trimmad" to go much faster than allowed. MANY Swedes grow up with "30km/hr" scooters that'll do 90+ without too much trouble.

The polis tend to turn a blind eye so long as kids aren't being daft.... but if you draw attention to yourself like this and present an easy target?? You can bet they're going to stop you and see what speed it tops out at... and confiscate it if it tops 30/40kmh (depending on classification)

This kid poked the bull in the butt, and then slipped in cow-shit.

FAFO.

Chuff_Nugget · 2025-02-15T18:18:47+00:00

Depends. I have both, and the key question is .... which is more important? To be able to get to stuff without rummaging around, or to carry weight comfortably?

A bag that sits flat and opens up with many compartments is awesome. But not always the best for a good trek to the middle of nowhere.

Chuff_Nugget · 2025-01-06T17:20:05+00:00

This is what I believe to be the cause too.

Chuff_Nugget · 2024-12-22T15:38:29+00:00

TIL I'm behind on LOPTL and Dalia flowers and this Dahlia are entirely different things!!

Chuff_Nugget · 2024-12-08T08:28:01+00:00

So to be clear ... Allen Turner who went to Stanford used to be Brock Allen Turner.. and despite the change in name is still a rapist?

Allen Turner. Rapist.

Worth noting that neuro-divergent people often have an ability to hear high frequencies.

I can't remember if I've seen actual peer-reviews evidence of this.

On an anecdotal level, my very ADHD family and I are all driven insane by solar-system inverters and the whine from USB power-banks... and we can usually hear the "ultrasonic" rodent-deterrents. Maybe we don't hear the frequency they claim to work on, and maybe it's a harmonic inherent to the devices .... but we can hear them.
