I saw this and in the comments someone linked to this.

And you thought the ants were addictive. Here you fight not simply for cake, but your own sovereign poop-free existence!

I had to stop when my hand started hurting. Now I've played some pretty serious games before but nothing made my hand actually cramp up like this.

Oh, and watch out for the storks... they have a bundle of something for you, and it certainly isn't joy.

I can't believe the scores on the top list. Those guys must have CTS.

I've used computers for 12 years (out of 22 in total) and my right wrist sometimes feels like it has the strength of a wet noodle. I got an optical mouse in 2002 and haven't used a mouse mat since, that's helped a good deal. Keeping the angle between the hand and lower arm as neutal as possible is important. I also started lifting weights recently too.

They should make a new version where you can buy a Ma Deuce, a flamethrower, an M134 and finally a GAU 8/A.

Regarding the news story: They're implementing a population control solution? How laughable.

How about allowing the (human) population to arm themselves? A 12-gauge with bird shot would be quite effective, and it would provide the residents with a new source of meat (I don't know about that last part -- how does seagull taste anyway?). I think I'd prefer that over a big stick.

Oh yeah, the Fark thread has all kinds of "Point-ed sticks" and "oh if only they made some kind of specialty gun just for shooting at birds. With some kind of ammunition that was specially designed for shooting at birds."

I mean seriously, at the very least they have cricket bats. But no, they suggest cowering behind fruity little pinwheels. Pretty soon, they'll start complaining that the pinwheels hurt the birds' feelings or something.

So what you're saying is that more powerful loads are acceptable, right?

Birdshot is more designed with the spread in mind, assuming you also made sure to pattern your gun, and you have the right chokes installed. You could use Winchester 3" 000 buck copper plated magnum loads, but you would probably only hit them if they landed on your lawn, and who is going to have to clean that up?

If you're looking for a tack driving varmint gun then look no further.

With a muzzle velocity of 2100 fps it's virtually impossible to miss.

Oh that was a separate point from your previous line, then. Okay.
