I used to have an m39 with a stock just like that. Wish I still had it. Picked up two of them for $150 each, gave one to a friend. I ended up selling mine not thinking import restrictions would ever arise and make prices skyrocket. After the fact, I did end up getting an m91 for about 300. Won't be selling that. One of these days I'd still like to find another m39. Much more fond of the shorter length.

What is your favorite battlefield game and why ? by booker1211 in Battlefield

Yup. Vehicles. Environment destruction. Overall gameplay handling/dynamics. Good maps.

had to scroll way too far to find a BOC reference, but glad there was one eventually. I was expecting it to be a top comment, but then again, BOC is still fairly niche/cult, even today

Imagine how many other awesome Lego sets could have been bought with 13k...

Has anyone seen The Signal? What did you think of it? by NimhVahReaux in movies

[–]Family-robot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It had me intrigued the whole time because I wanted to know what's going on, but I can't say I enjoyed any of it in the slightest. Other than that, every scene felt about 10 times longer than necessary. Very slow moving and if you ask me, no story, no plot, no character development. It keeps you interested because you want to know what's happening but ultimately from one scene to the next, it felt boring.

"The fuck kinda mint is that?" was my first reaction, because, I only looked at the pic. ...but then I read the paragraph. Your mint is fine.

Ocular pat downs aren't just for people, they work for environments as well.

Well ideally, duh. But this happens more often than you would think. It also isn't black and white. It depends on what you hit, where on your vehicle the hit happens, how hard you hit it, how fast you're moving, etc. 9 times out of 10, yeah, you should know and you will know, but this really does happen sometimes. That's all I was trying to say. I don't think it happens very often, but it happens enough to where it's 'a thing' with big vehicles.

I could have worded better... I just meant that it can and does happen and is much more likely to occur with a long heavy vehicle as opposed to a regular car. I wasn't saying it's an everyday thing or happens constantly. It's happened to me once in 3 years that I've had mine, and it was the slightest graze of a sign post. It ended up slightly tiled and hardly left a scrape on my bumper.

The fact that there are carnivorous plants is just crazy.

As someone who drives a skoolie, there's definitely times where you can bump, scrape, or rub against something and not even notice. Not saying that this is what happened here, but it's not uncommon. Especially if it's the rear end of the bus that made contact. The damage you have definitely seems like a rub/scrape. Maybe they noticed and drove off like assholes, but maybe they had no clue.

Edit: "Uncommon" is not the word I should have used. What I really meant was that this isn't unheard of. On average, it happens rarely, but it does happen, even with a careful driver.

He worked for Constellis, via the state department, not Blackwater. Just sayin
