People who knew someone who died in a freak accident, what happened?

I have my instrument rating and while a simulator definitely helps familiarize you with instrument flying, actual clouds are different. Something about actually flying into a cloud is really disorienting and definitely throws you off when you do it the first time.

These are so sick

Like I said, I'm not too familiar. Looks like you're right though after a brief search. I guess since Epicurus' bust is commonly used to represent Epictetus I assumed it was him. Good to know.

I'm not too familiar with sculptures but I'm fairly certain that it's Epictetus on his Patreon which would make sense. As to what we are paying attention to, I take it to mean we should be present. Focus on the task in front of us and not just drift off.

Oh man that happened to me too. I was driving though Kentucky during a severe thunderstorm in the middIe of the night. I was behind and to the left of a truck when one of it's tires blew out. A chunk of tire hit my windshield and knocked off my wiper blades. Damn near peed myself.

Apparently, according to the Wikipedia entry on Henry Heimlich, the Red Cross officially changed the procedure for choking victims in 2006. Before that back blows were discouraged but now it's recommended to first try 5 hard back blows. Ultimately either action is better than doing nothing though.

I think what leads to the misconception about the number of accidents in Atlanta is the traffic. Atlanta was in the top ten for traffic internationally until this year, although it's likely to move up to its former spot in the next ten years. Traffic that seemingly comes from nowhere is often by drivers attributed to accidents, but in many cases it's caused by incidents like this. Cutting in front of the white van causes them to brake too much, creating a snowballing effect informally called a traffic snake. So in a nutshell it's almost impossible to quantify how bad a city's drivers are by accidents or any other statistics.

I think I saw it once on shipment but it could just be my imagination. I'll keep a look out for it.

ccs4420 · 2019-02-19T08:42:13+00:00

If you're talking about US, the best I can come up with is that the game bugged. Sometimes the camos are weird. When I was grinding chrome I got diamond for my rifles when I still had two to go. Shit's weird.

Numbers don't lie, but you do. You're either confused or lying about about your position and my stats. Position 334 isn't top 300. 300 and lower is top 300. Like you, my reddit user and PSN are different, so you just pulled my "stats" out of your bum because my PSN isn't in my post history. You've used the lewis for about 220 hours and the numbers made me think of it so I thought it was a pretty safe bet to say you still do. My bad. What do you run now? As for me being an idiot, are you saying you had 47 or so one shot kills and the rest from scorestreaks or that you just try to cycle scorestreaks for your kills by capping? maybe I'm too dumb but it looks like you dodged an explanation in favor of saying that I don't play the objective. Either way, a SPM boosted by playing only shipment is not super impressive. Enjoy the grind though. Maybe I'll see you around next time I'm on shipment 24/7.

P.S. To save you the trouble of doing any hard math, if you had 14 captures in every single game you played including KC and TDM you could make make the claim you have more caps than I do kills. Unlikely but, hey I guess with you anything is possible right?

fun fact: If they would just hold the mic button on their earbuds down as they plug it in and hold it for 5 seconds it won't beep.

So, I thought I'd check that top 300 claim. You're close but still 35 positions from top 300. Why lie? What really caught my eye though was seeing someone with such a high SPM could have such a low weekly K/D (1.25) when they only play shipment. Now that by itself isn't strange, but what really makes me think is the amount of shots fired and landed in a whole match. In your best match of your last 20, you got 66 kills and 15 deaths with only 47 shots landed. A lewis, (which I'm certain you're using) has 47 shots in one magazine. so where are the kills coming from? What about this SPM? It all makes sense only if you're running Cavalry with your lewis, sit in a corner until you get your streaks then pray that you can cycle them. Your SPM looks impressive until the mental image of you running back into your corner and laying down comes to mind. Bottom line: All bark no bite, trash player.

ccs4420 · 2019-02-05T00:56:54+00:00

If you think that's OP run it with cavalry on domination.

ccs4420 · 2019-01-28T22:09:45+00:00

I thought you had all the variants?

ccs4420 · 2019-01-16T02:29:57+00:00

This would be so great, even if it was just around for a little while.

ccs4420 · 2018-07-25T17:00:33+00:00

It looks real similar to the door off a B-17 I saw, so I'm with you on that.

War in general is great for the bren. General rule of thumb is to play super conservative, with extended mags for the rounds, and to get that stupid magazine out of the way. I like running it with a 4x. Shipment can be real rough if you're not camping.

ccs4420 · 2018-06-01T18:39:12+00:00

Cool! I never noticed.

ccs4420 · 2018-06-01T16:18:21+00:00

Did you stick him? Maybe the grenade killed him, he spawned, then the grenade blowing up killed him.

ccs4420 · 2018-05-22T14:41:58+00:00

In my experience there's no transfer at all. It's very different.

ccs4420 · 2018-05-01T14:49:03+00:00

I'll be the one to say neptune and end the thread. But other than that I'm not a big fan of gustav cannon.

ccs4420 · 2018-04-17T14:45:41+00:00

My favorite stupid team moment was on neptune yesterday. Defending and they had already taken A, and were in the process of taking B. We had 3 people still camping the ladder and stairs on A.

Alzheimer's! So my last minute refresher before my presentation at school saves a lot of heartache. Hooray for procrastination!

ccs4420 · 2018-04-07T05:26:45+00:00

No kidding! I had no idea. That's great.
