🙅 THE BAD IDEAS THREAD
-
As for imitrex - tried it. It falls in the interrupt category. I first tried it as a pill, then my doctor had me try it again when they came out with the shot version.
I still use imitrex, the pill, as for some reason the shot version makes me massively ill at both ends.

Regardless of taste, some (most?) of those are works of art.

Not really. If she were really crazy, she'd have let Al Gore say something.

They would be if they stopped migraines for her.

Ha, nope, a fungus that causes hallucinations and convulsions...also can stop excess bleeding and cure migraines.

Yeah, I certainly wouldn't want to live in a world where I'm expected to test every pint I buy at the pub, but complaining about someone inventing an easy way to test for doctored drinks is just dumb.
Aside: Years ago, my aunt had come by from Canada - as she used to - and the matter of not leaving your drinks unattended came up in conversation; 'coz date-rape drugs were just starting to become a Thing. Here in Poland, we had (still have?) a much simpler reason not to - if you leave your drink unattended, you won't have a drink to come back to.
Filed under: Does that also count as rape culture?

Complaining about how nail polish that can detect roofies is Rape Culture.

Yeah, they're right, of course, that people shouldn't attack people and people shouldn't have to worry about defending themselves. But they think that telling people that what they're doing is wrong will somehow bring new knowledge to them and they'll stop.
But these people are too stupid to realize that the bad guys fucking know that they're doing something that's wrong but they don't care. These idiots don't deserve to be raped, but they should be severely mocked.

So...handing out free food boxes (worth about $100) to the community. That seems like a good thing. But then you see this:
Those who didn’t want to stand in line could wait in their car for the drive-thru portion of the event.
WTF. James Taranto's 2¢:
We guess Will Rogers was right when he observed in 1931: "We are the first nation in the history of the world to go to the poor house in an automobile."

I wonder if the & is from cbslocal.com, or the one-boxing.

Looks like the oneboxing did that. It looks correct on the actual page.

One of the winners last time isn't in IT.
Morale!

They should spread out and make a weekly employee of the month.

These nuts are beyond parody. You're getting perilously close to the "All PIV is rape" culture--I use the term extremely loosely--who I would LOVE to ask how they think the species is expected to reproduce.

Yeah, it's hard to imagine saying the things they do with a straight face. Heh...

I was under the impression that barstaff aren't, generally, the ones slipping roofies into drinks, so testing them just after you bought them isn't going to tell you very much...

This is unrelated, but as good a place as any to ask. Why does your avatar only have one leg?

Uh ...

Giving someone that young a weapon where they're not able to deal with the recoil and which can fire again very rapidly…
-
Yeah, I saw that yesterday. What a tragedy, and how stupid can you be to give such a lightweight high-ROF and high-recoil weapon to someone that young and likely inexperienced.
When I teach someone to shoot, I always have them dry-fire first. Except I make them think the weapon is actually loaded. It's interesting to see how much recoil isn't really recoil and is simply an inexperienced and nervous shooter flinching.
-

If you're gonna have a gun-happy country, you should teach kids how to handle them. The guy screwed up.
-
My school used to have gun safety classes in elementary school. I didn't move there until I was 12 so I missed them, but I heard from my friends how they used to shoot rifles and bows in school.
Sadly, because of politics those classes are gone now.

Meh. Miami is truly huge. The metro area is like 100 miles long, and everything is far away. Bus service runs once an hour, if you're lucky.
Plus, should people sell their cars because they lost their job? Maybe. But consider that if everybody did that, the market for used cars would be depressed...
-
Gas isn't cheap. At least park the fucking car and go stand in line while you wait.

I'd have thought that at that age they'd mostly be focusing on single shot weapons rather than something much more challenging to control. Graduate to the other weapon once they're older and stronger. (After all, there's plenty else to learn too.)

But what else is more important than learning to shoot automatic machine pistol? You don't want other kids laughing at you when they can do gangsta-style bursts and two-handed John Woo style rolls, while all you can do is two handed automatic mommy's boy shooting range bullshit.

Well, anything other than full-auto. Low-power and low-recoil semi-autos like the AR-15s are excellent starter weapons, as are pump-action .410's.
Those guys pretty much broke every rule in the book. It's like teaching a teenager how to ride a motorcycle by handing him a 250-horsepower 1000cc super-sport. No surprise that something bad happened.
I've never fire an Uzi before, but it's a pistol! A fully-automatic pistol! Most pistols have decent recoil and even as an adult I imagine it would be difficult to deal with that rate of fire.

So what you're saying is that an Uzi is ideal for when you need to shoot everywhere except where you want to?
-

That's pretty much true for most automatic weapons. They're good for suppressive fire and good for scaring people. Not so good for actually hitting what you want to hit.

Turkey basters?
Probably not, since nobody's managed human parthenogenesis. Homo Sapiens has been around quite some time, so it's pretty impressive to think the species is so totally draped in such patriarchy.

Anecdotes suggest that leaving your drink alone for any amount of time runs the risk of getting it doctored. I don't have any reason to believe it's particularly widespread, but why take chances?
Oops, the last four words showed my patriarchy. Obviously we can't say it's smart to not go out drinking without friends, because BY DAMMIT WYYMYYNNY HAVE A RIGHT TO GO BOOZING BY THEMSELVES WITH ANY AMOUNT OF MEN IN ANY KIND OF PROVOCA[sorry, holding down caps lock got boring]tive clothing they want or taking any reasonable precautions. Just because it's not smart not to lock your bike or car doesn't mean you're not a sexist pig for suggesting wymyyyn should attempt to behave responsibly.

Great Caesar's ghost, who would give a little kid a select-fire weapon and not keep hands on it?
-

They just confuse the act of taking defensive measures against evil people with condoning or encouraging the evil. It goes right along with all of their other BAD IDEAS and sloppy thinking.

Also, what the hell, Formerly Great Britain? "This video contains disturbing images" ... of a girl firing a single shot on semi-auto. They stopped it before showing her shooting him.
