So
Iraq has nicer trains than the US.
12:45
PM Mr. Amethyst
We
have nicer guns.
12:56

They
probably do on the train thing.
All
other places have better trains than us.
12:57

I
don’t know man; Alaska has some nice ones. I mean...Canada
part of Alaska, right?

Related
but unrelated: "Iraq's new train is capable of carrying 343
passengers in its comfortable air-conditioned passenger and sleeper
cars, and another 875 on the roofs of the cars, assuming traveling at

Hahahaha
I
love that!

“USS

Right,
WTF is that about?
10:02

Sounds
like a big ol' piece of aluminum poop.
10:03
AM Mr. Amethyst
Alumipoo
Mr. Silver
As
always...we have to get to the revelation that my favorite
configuration is the Littoral C...or C-littoral
10:05
AM Mr. Amethyst
Ah
yes...the pleasure center of naval combat.
10:06
AM Mr. Blue
Heh.
10:06
AM Mr. Silver
The
C-Littoral was intended to be stealth capable, but most women sailors
are able to find a C-Littoral instinctively.
Mr. Silver
If
spotted, in testing the C-littoral variant becomes very loud and
difficult to control during maneuvers.
10:10
AM Mr. Amethyst
It
also has a predisposition to leaking fluids.
10:10
AM Mr. Silver
Nod.
It is infamous in the industry for its persistent dampness issues and
slippery decks.
"There is some question about the crew compliment being too large for such a small vessel, but the Department of the Navy has assured congress that it can hold a lot of seamen."
10:12
AM Mr. Amethyst
We’re
4th graders.
10:12

?
10:13
AM Mr. Amethyst
Advanced
topic, same maturity level.
LOL
10:13
AM Mr. Silver
Ah. :-)
11:06
AM Mr. Silver
Back
to the jokes...Wasn't done!
"Naval
R&D pressed that additional funding for specific aspects of the
Littoral platform would help resolve the problems.
Unfortunately the stimulus programs for the A, B and D Littoral
configurations were revoked. Only Admiral Abigail White
successfully petitioned to keep funds, stating that the C-Littoral's
needs could never be satisfied without a full stimulus program."
Mr. Brown
When
the C-Littoral is aggressively handled, the controls will cause
adverse course corrections.
11:32
AM Mr. Silver
"The
Department of the Navy recently questioned the seemingly inexplicable
inclusion of a torpedo bay under the prow of the C-Littoral which
could easily accommodate torpedoes of all types and sizes, yet no
such ordinance is carried aboard full time; only for periodic naval
exercises. When this decision was questioned, Admiral White
commented that this would be "Just weird"."
11:35
AM Mr. Amethyst
Also
noting that the simultaneous use of a single torpedo by two sub
C-Littoral torpedo bays is relatively common in today’s more "open"
naval exercises
Mr.
Blue
The
first C-Littoral will be named USS Clinton
How's
that? Sorry for the delay.
12:10
PM Mr. Amethyst
Well
done
12:17
PM Mr. Silver
"President
Bill Clinton backed the entire Littoral ship program in its early
days, but loved the C-Littoral variant above all the others and was
constantly pushing for access to view the designs, handle the models,
and tour the prototype. Mrs. Hillary Clinton did not share
his enthusiasm; though it's rumored she kept a private hand on the
project throughout its entire development."
12:41
PM Mr. Amethyst
LOL
12:48
PM Mr. Brown
Bill
Clinton: I placed the C-Littoral in my mouth but I did not inhale.
I have a very large mouth.
12:49
PM Mr. Silver
Bleh
12:49
PM Mr. Brown
Yeah,
I know
The
C-Littoral’s compass always points north.
12:50
PM Mr. Silver
?!?!
Ship
jokes! Military jokes! (claps hands impatiently) Work
with me, man!
1:06
PM Mr. Silver
"The
original Littoral designs were submitted in a DARPA contest for
a new coaster ship solution, with the winner being a relative unknown
in the industry - a military hobbyist and maritime engineer named
Patrick Rubb. The special trials of the C-Littoral project,
specifically, were documented by his wife in the biography she wrote
of him - 'Pat Rubb and The C-Littoral: The Little Man Inside A
Big Boat'."
(I
think I'm tapped out after that one...)

PM Mr. Amethyst
LMAO
Mr.
Brown
I
watched the movie “Home Front” the other day.
It
wasn't bad.
Good
action.
8:20
AM Mr. Silver
It
didn't review so well.
Well...they
can't all be "Retrograde".
8:22
AM Mr. Brown
Yeah,
it has a good base for an action movie: trying to get away from a
life of action, action finds him.
LOL
Then
he kicks everybody’s ass.
8:36
AM Mr. Silver
Did
he ever call the DEA?
8:36
AM Mr. Brown
He
called one of his buddies for info and handled it all himself like a
true action star.
LOL

I
just have trouble suspending disbelief with stuff like this.

he's not really risking *everything*, and he doesn't even have to
risk *anything*, but we got Jason Statham and damn it we're going to

Ok,
so I’ll watch the rock as Hercules.
9:13
AM Mr. Blue
The
Rock's Hercules movie will probably be better than that other one
that was released earlier.
9:14
AM Mr. Silver
Like...all
of them?
9:14
AM Mr. Blue
Uhh,
the one released earlier in the year.
I
think they rushed it out to capitalize on the hype of the Rock's
Hercules movie, but really, have any of the Hercules movies been
good?
9:15

"Now
Hercules must risk nothing in particular because he's a divine

Do
I have to label them also?
