The internet seems to relish presenting me with things that will supposedly "blow" my mind, which is odd, as my mind seems to somehow avoid being blown. Maybe only stupid minds blow so easily?

It's more likely our collective need for everything to be stated in overwrought language to compensate for the overwhelming sadness of people who can no longer find joy in simple things, expressed in explosive terms to make the sorrow go away.

Anti Material Sniper Rifle

A lot of fun is made in this video, with some serious antimaterial sniper rifles. Instead of talking a lot about them, I invite you to have a look at the video. It's fun to watch

facts:

A sniper rifle is a high-precision, long-range rifle. Requirements include high accuracy, reliability, mobility, concealment, and optics, for anti-personnel, anti-materiel and surveillance uses by military snipers. The modern sniper rifle is a portable shoulder-fired rifle with either a bolt action or semi-automatic action, fitted with a telescopic sight for extreme accuracy and chambered for a high-ballistic performance centerfire cartridge.

20th century

During the Second Boer War, the latest breech-loading rifles with magazines and smokeless powder were used by both sides. The British were equipped with the Lee–Metford rifle, while the Boers had received the latest Mauser Model 1895 rifles from Germany. In the open terrain of South Africa, the marksman was a crucial component in battle. The Lovat Scouts was a British Army unit formed in 1899 that was renowned for the expert marksmanship and stalking skills of its personnel. The men wore ghillie suits for camouflage and were expertly skilled in observation. Hesketh Hesketh-Prichard said of them that "keener men never lived".[5] After the Boer War, the Scouts became the first official sniper unit in the British Army.

If Trump played in the MLB, he'd hit 486 HRs *every season*. All of them grand slam and in the river.

His pitching line would be: ꓘꓘꓘꓘꓘꓘꓘꓘꓘꓘꓘꓘꓘꓘꓘꓘꓘꓘꓘꓘꓘꓘꓘꓘꓘꓘꓘ.

Clemens, Ohtani, Judge would be his flunkies and brawl to hold up his spittoon.

This paper is right up there with the "how to give a mouse PTSD" talk I went to once. This time, it's "we took eight healthy people and subjected them to so much stress that their blood proceeded to spontaneously clot" (#hyperbole). Read and enjoy.

What will you #do and not #think first about not #doing in the #name of...filll in the blank?

That's the #political #ideology that has #poisoned our #people into retarded fools for the last decade or more.

This is truly a #sickening #prospect that has turned from #conceptualized #potential #hyperbole into #active #reality overnight.

We have to #fight this.

#EnochBurke's five millionth* court appearance is to object to being kept safe, in a smaller prison nearer his family. Wicked, says Enoch

But luckily, he can't disrupt the #HighCourt #IEHC any more. All his appearances are now on a video link, which gets cut if he kicks off. This also saves the cost of a van, driver, and escorting officer to bring Burke to and from the court.

Note: the tally of five million is #sarcasm and #hyperbole, induced by the #BurkeFamily
