Funniest Anger Moment

Ahhhh the Remington. Now if your going to go, you might as well go big!

Wagon, if you used your Ruger or the Remington, you would have no f*cking wall, let alone a TV or Cat.
lmao

 

[Wagon]

I think thats the point. If you are going to wreck the TV with a can of snuff............................Don't you just wish you had taken out the whole area instead. That's about where the rage gauge red line point is at anyway.

It also provides for the story that begins........ "You see there was this mouse......."

The Remington 1100 is an awesome Pheasant gun. Grouse as well.

Since we are talking guns...two more sea stories maybe funny maybe not.

Scene: 2 Oct 1991, heavy seas off the Shumagin Islands, Gulf of Alaska. M/V Hyundai No. 12 (a 600 ft grain ship with a 28 ft draft) decides to avoid the storm by cutting between two islands that have none (read zero) sounding data and a big stamp on the chart saying "The shorelines depicted on this chart are approximate. No formal surveys or sounding have been made. Navigate with extreme caution." So they run hard aground. My ship gets the call to go help. 12 hours of steaming later we get there, anchor and I get sent over as the Boarding Team Leader to survey the scene. As we approach we see all these little black dots on the ocean. At first I thought they were a variety of seaweed that I had never seen before. As we get closer, they are rats. Big, seaport, greasy rats. Swimming to shore. So I call it in. Ten to fifteen minutes later I get a call back. "Sweetbrier-1 this is Sweetbrier, use all means necessary to deny the rats access to the islands." I think everyone on the RHIB looked at the radio, stunned and confused.

"Sweetbrier, Sweetbrier-1, Please say again your last." I said trying not to laugh.

"Use all means necessary to deny the rats access to the islands." Comes my CO's voice.

"Roger your last Sweetbrier. Do we have permission to go weapons free?"

"Goddamnit! I said all means necessary!" Screamed old Wild Bill W.

"You heard the man. Lock and load." I said as my team started taking aim. And thus began the Rat Patrol.

3 days. 52 sorties. 672 rats. 1200 feet of oil boom. One salvaged freighter. Almost the most fun I had in service.

Okay, my Veteran has been isolating for almost a month now and I don't know if he's ever coming home. But I haven't broken down about it (thanks to you all...or y'all as we say in the South).

My Pap smear (sorry guys) came back as abnormal so I had to go have 2 biopsies yesterday. Didn't break down about it.

An elderly friend died yesterday and though he is in a better place, our small town has lost one of our lovely Veterans. Didn't break down about it.

Heard some unsettling news about my Veteran's business this morning, which could have severe implications for us. Trying to digest but didn't break down about it.

In my meeting with my nutritionist today, after working out so hard all month and eating only "good for you" food and giving up carbonated beverages and sugar....I had GAINED 1/2 a pound. And I bust into tears. :cry:

Its funny now but she was mortified and I was inconsolable.....lol. :rolleyes:

Ahhh,the straw that broke the camels back syndrome,think we all get that one,hope you feel better today,sending positive vibes.X

Red what is it with women and their weight. My fiance has gained more that she should with the baby that will be here at the end of june. The other day she was she was complaining about it I can't help but laugh and tease a little. For #$%& sake she's pregnant she can't change the weight gain so why whine. She hates beeing over weight when she is not pregnant and she brings it in to while she is pregnant. Just doesn't make sense at all. So I could see the whole straw that broke the camels back after the type of day you had.

 

[Redheaded Stranger]

LOL, weight is a number telling us how undesirable we are. It seems like every message we see tells us that number needs to be smaller or we're not worth much. In this case, it was just the last straw. If I hadn't been working so hard at it, I wouldn't have cared but I'd deprived myself of all of the good stuff and worked out really hard and gained....arrrgggg. The month before, when I didn't work as hard, and occasionally ate what I shouldn't, I lost 3.5 pounds. Where's the logic? I'm a logical person. So tell me what to do and I'll do it and I expect the promised outcome. Weight doesn't seem to follow that logic and it just ...... well, last straw.

Anyway, hugs to your fiance because her hormones are in charge now and probably nothing feels like it is working right. Congrats on the pending arrival.

Like I said, it is funny now ...... after lots of fried chicken and chocolate chip cookies, because the logical plan didn't work so why follow it????

 

[Jimmy1]

I beg to differ. With us guys, the bigger the number is best.
I have been fighting my weight for years. Antidepressants have a major impact. We get off them and lose weight, but are not well in the head.
As long as you exercise and eat right, be happy with what you have. Some people would love a working body. Me too ATM
