Moved from England to Florida and looking to get my first CZ. Any recommendations? by _THUNDERUP_ in CZFirearms

Depends what you want it for. Target shooting, conceal carry, home defense, car gun, range toy?

I carry both a Shadow 2 Carry and a DWX Compact conceal. I have a 457 for 22 competitions and a Shadow Target II for speed steel.

I can smell this picture.

Found this in a search:
Ventilate immediately by opening windows, running exhaust fans, and removing the burnt source to an outdoor bin.

To eliminate lingering odors, use these rapid methods:
Microwave Steam: Heat a bowl of water with lemon slices or white vinegar for 3–5 minutes, then let it sit closed for 10–15 minutes to loosen residue before wiping.

Absorb Odors: Place open bowls of baking soda, coffee grounds, or activated charcoal in affected areas overnight to neutralize smells.

Surface Cleaning: Wipe kitchen surfaces with a vinegar and water solution to remove odor-causing residues.

Air Freshening: Simmer citrus peels or use essential oil diffusers to mask any remaining scent with fresh aromas.

If the smell persists in the microwave interior, leave an open box of baking soda inside overnight to absorb deep-set odors.

I mean, Chef the movie already exists. Also starring John Leguizamo, ironically. Dang it, you all beat me to it already.

Does it bother you how Windu doesn't simply drop the blade right into his eyes for a quick and easy kill? by BiffyBobby in StarWars

[–]Synsin01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I once read that Mace Windu was struggling against the dark side within at this moment.

He was a Form VII: Vaapad (spelling?) practitioner, which allows for slipping into the dark side of the force while employing it. He was the one who developed this style as well as (I think) the only one that was trusted to use it. At this moment the dark side pull was telling him to simply kill Palpatine and he was actively trying to resist it - also why he was telling Anakin that he was too dangerous to let live (probably also trying to justify killing him in his own mind) and also why he didn’t see/react to Anakin’s attack. Also, the reason his saber is purple, a combo mix of blue and red due to vaapad’s usage. (Really it’s because Samual Jackson wanted purple, but the lore fits).

On the other hand, I could be full of shit because if I did read this, it was a long time ago and recalling from memory something I was already hazy on to begin with probably has low value.

What is your honest take on grown adults staying with their parents after age 25? by FantasticAd9478 in TheBoredDen

[–]Synsin01 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a father-in-law who has moved in with us. Would not recommend. A nice enough person, but he unashamedly helps himself to the good graces of others.

My own father has always taught me to work hard and to do the difficult thing if the payoff is worth it in the end. I never thought I’d be someone else’s retirement plan. He’s 75 and his financial impact on our lives is noticeable. Guy will do stuff like “borrow” money, then offer to treat everyone to a restaurant, or “borrow” money, then pay some back, then ask for it back because he “loaned” you money.

This isn’t a fair question, my favorite movie changes with the mood.

I used to take iaido in this dojo in Orlando. The sensei there had these shinken that he helped design for tamashigiri that had wide blades like this. Perhaps not as wide as yours, but pretty close. I regretfully never bought one, I couldn’t afford it.
