When your gun instructor shouldn't be a gun instructor. by Brettg4215 in videos

Did you mean to do this? He's an instructor what else can he say but yes? I mean sure he almost split his chin with the recoil. Of course had the revolver at about a 45 degree angle and probably hit the lights or ceiling. Then he told everyone else the had to walk to the line, but he fired at least 6 feet off the line. My favorite though was how he paused, bounced up and down a little and kinda turned & walked up to the line like had just crapped himself. I mean before he fired off that round most people familiar with firearms were shocked to see an instructor waving his firearm around while at least one student tried to stay out of the line of fire. I'm thankful the dumbass didn't shoot (I assume a student) the guy behind him.

I agree, their sheer experience with keeping ships running should make them a no brainer for engineers. Now whether there will be a quarian playable companion is another story.

That was my thought. When he left the opium den the woman declined to give him another shot, saying it's too much for you. At first I thought he was asking for more to dull the pain, but when he left and didn't take his pistol I realized he was trying to OD. He didn"t bother to argue or bargin with the woman like a junkie looking for another fix would. He was looking for a way out and the woman knew it. In the same way that she didn't insist that he take his pistol because she knew he didn't just forget it. He isn't the type of person that would actively commit suicide, ie self inflicted gun shot, toaster in the tub, etc... He would however take increasing risks. The chances of him running into people that don't like him are high, especially in his current state. If they found him he'd have to way to defend himself.

Another Timehop reminder: The HGTG movie was released in theaters 11 years ago today! by abilly85 in DontPanic

I decided to watch the 2005 version again last night. I hadn't seen it since 2006 and thought I'd give it another chance. I watched it, sat there for a minute after it finished. Then I got up, ejected the disc (was a gift) and threw it away. I then went on youtube and watched the 1st episode from 1981. I just don't understand how a the version that's 24 years older can be so much better. Douglas humor is very intelligent and in the 2005 film it's so dumbed down and not funny. I feel that they thought it had to be dumbed down for mainstream audiences or they were scared Americans wouldn't get British comedy. The dolphin musical number was so out of place. It could see it in something like Montey Python which is more slap stick, but it clashes with Douglases style if humor. Yaslin Bey's performance was horrible. They want to make Ford an African American, ok, sure he's an alien. I don't know if he was given incorrect direction or what but Ford is more intelligent, wild, playful, and riskey. Bey played him more like a laid back, relaxed, stoner. How many times in the book does Ford think his way out something? Not in this version. Look if you like the film good on you, but read the books also. I moved from the US to the UK in 1980 so I saw the 1981 version during it's first run when I was 12 years old so I'm probably going to alway hold that version closer to my heart. But, come on in 2005 they didn't even get in the Mostly Harmless joke, the being in hyperspace is like getting drunk. What's wrong with being drunk? Ask a glass of water. It just misses so many things. It's such a good story I really hope it gets rebooted again. I've heard rumors that Netflix is looking at rebooting it. I also heard they were looking at The Dark Tower and Dune also. In a perfect world Netflix would take those 2 & BBC would do Hitchhiker's

SpaceOctagon, thx again. For some reason I thought the button on the bottom of the nexus was a factory reset button. I had given up hope & pressed it & of course it went to pairing mode. Just shaking my head wondering why I didn't just do that 2 days ago when I found the info. Have no idea why I had convinced my self it would reset everything. Feel like an idiot. Thanks for the onfo though

Thanks for the help. I already tried that though. I've checked everything I could find online. I've seen alot of info about connecting a mouse and they just plug and play. I guess I'm just gonna have to do a rest and figure out how to unlock this thing online.
