Damn, that was a good shot with that bottle!

"Senator, you travelled--oh nothing nevermind, good shot."

good times!

I like that, "quantum mushrooms alter ego". Anyhoo, if believing that Hugo Chavez isn't the son of satan that the US seems to love to pretend he is makes me a lefty then so be it. Personally I think politics , patriotism and nationalism are for the sheep who can't make up their own minds. I'll define myself as an anarchist libertarian and leave it at that.

I'm sorry I find it offensive when pituary retards glorify the slaughter of human life. Woohoo good shot! You blew a man up! yay you, you're my fucking hero for protecting my freedom.

Just let me know when you're ready, and then dotdude can post the notice and send out the invitations.

Geez, it almost sounds like we're getting gay married.

Not that there's anything wrong with that.

In reply to this comment by thesnipe:
Ok we'll set a date, I'm doing the survey now and then with that we'll setup an announcement post with the reference material and the date of the roast. The whole 48 hours seems like a good shot for me. I may need your help with the messages in profile comments if you don't mind but that's gotta wait until CaptWillard and I setup a time.

I think this has had sufficient exposure. unsticky


Denied. *sticky

I appreciate all the quality input from the admins of this site on this Sift Talk post, but I'd like to hear maybe a little more from them before this gets unstickied again. This was only stickied for 30 hours before lucky pulled the plug. I've seen my share of Sift Talk posts stickied longer than this one, so I'm not being unreasonable.

I care about this site just as much as anyone else here. I've used my * promotes (and * saves under the old system) as often as possible to not only give deserving videos a good shot at making the front page, but also to foster a sense of community. I've also left many comments on videos to encourage talk amongst members. Again, to build community. I want this site to grow and thrive, because it's got a hell of a lot going for it. But this no requeue business sucks. Oh wait, I guess we can requeue, but only if you're willing to pay for the extra power point to do it. So now we have a pay-per-requeue system. Yeah, THAT will ensure quality. Money ALWAYS guarantees quality, right?

I've got nothing against DLJ trying to make money on this enterprise. I wouldn't be paying for a charter membership if I thought otherwise. And asking for donations is cool too. Hell, I gave ten bucks twice just because I want this site to stay afloat. But now they're effectively charging for something that used to be free. So it's not really a donation anymore, but an optional premium fee. And frankly, I don't like it at all.

All many of us are asking for is to bring back the * requeue invocation in some form or another. It appears that most everyone agrees that there should be a requeue limit, so we're not talking about restoring the old unlimited requeue model. I don't think it's an unreasonable request.

Now, if an admin wishes to state why this is unreasonable then please do so, but do it BEFORE unstickying this post, please. I'm all ears. But remember that this site really isn't just about what you think. If you think it is then maybe you should just take all us members out of the loop. You can hunt down all the thousands of great videos people find for you (many of them PAYING for the privilege to do so), and post them yourselves. Otherwise, maybe you can at least give the plebs some * quality feedback. We may not like it, but at least you'll still be communicating with the people who are the backbone of this joint. It beats the HELL out of silence.

An even cheaper method is to just set the camera to shoot in the fasted burst mode, lean against something if possible and shoot a long burst of shots. Chances are you'll get at least one usable one. I've gotten really good shots with a non IS telephoto lens by shooting a long burst of shots.

If the gun was shattered, why was it a threat when he was 'reaching for his gun'? It was a bit too much to have to fling him backwards over the chair...
It was a really good shot though.

It's funny, and I'm somewhat squeamish about hunting, but I think he might be barking up the wrong tree.

Quail hunting is actually one of the more lively and challenging types of hunting (if done reasonably). You're walking a lot, trying to lead and control dogs, trying to find the covey's, and regardless of what Lewis Black thinks it takes pretty good reflexes and aim to shoot wild birds as they scatter. If they're pen-raised or have their wings clipped then yes it's much less sporting.

Deer hunting I would say is less sporting, because you're typically sitting in a stand or a blind for hours just waiting for a deer to wander past. You can take your time, line up a good shot, and blam.

Also most properties will have fencing. That doesn't make it any less sporting with regard to deer or quail because they can both easily go over or through those fences. And the ranch that Cheney was hunting on is insanely huge so a fence around the perimeter could still be miles away.

was a pretty good shot really.

You're right, Farhad... though, I tend to think they were all VFX. The shotgun he was shooting from the hip (hard to do accurately, I should think) and only got 1 good shot in on the car (there were two hits shown in the playback). Also, in the GPMG replay, you can hear a second weapon firing.

But... it's a video of stuff blowing up, so it's all good to me. Voted!

You gotta admit, that was a good shot.

Its all over the papers in England, every pro lip-reader is trying to work out what the Italian played said. Its agreed that he must've insulted Zindanes family with a very racist remark, something to do with his Nigerian background.

Good shot btw, right for the heart area

If you listen closely, the bangs continue in the background for the whole clip. It sounds like the Marines are seeking cover under things (you hear one say 'quit pushing me from under the table' and another says 'please don't let it get any closer'). It could be RPG rounds, but it is more likely mortar rounds. They were used regularly by insurgents to attack Army camps at night in Iraq, and they can be quickly set up and moved. One good shot could kill most, if not all, these Marines. I definitely pray they made it out safely.
