I want to quit my job and join Mythbusters

[pokerfan]

Tory is firing a SAW right now.

1. I bet they have more than their share of applicants.

What a cool job it would be.

[pokerfan]

2. No kidding

Blowing up stuff. Shooting up stuff. For science.

BTW, the SAW didn't work on cutting through a tree but the minigun with Kari at the controls managed it in 45 seconds. They didn't say how many rounds it was but it fires at a rate of 3,000 rounds per minute, so do the math.

7. I saw that last night.

Damn. :wow:

[ThoughtCriminal]

3. It looks alot like a "Johnny Seven O.M.A" -nt

[pokerfan]

5. I had to google that

But specifically the SAW in the picture is an M249. Basically a single person LMG firing the same ammo as the M16. It's been in our military since the eighties.

I have never fired one, but I bet someone here has.

10. Awww, I HAD a Johnny Seven when I was a kid.

Got it for Christmas. It was my favorite present EVER!

[TrogL]

12. I had one of those

...and a Marx-a-copter

4. Ya, it looked fun pumping methane gas into the sealed port-o-potty....

with that dummy sitting inside with the pilot lit.

6. 'Buster' is always good for a laugh

[LibertyLover]

9. Poor Buster

always taking one for the team.

[DS1]

8. The SAW is pretty good, I've got the barrel just about white hot on one

But for firepower, I'll take the M240

.308 for the win

[laconicsax]

13. Why pick that loser over the M2?

[DS1]

15. It's archaic

takes too long to set up with its timing/key width system. Changing the barrel takes too damn long.

11. Looks like a fun place to work. Is a fun show.

[EnviroBat]

14. I'd get fired for "Mythbusting" Keri...

Such Hawtness.

[pokerfan]

16. Did you see Kari Byron in FHM?

18. Watched that many, many times...

[Hell Hath No Fury]

17. I work a few blocks from them...

and run into Jamie at the deli next to M5 around once a month or so. And I almost literally ran into Cory -- the dumbshit came bombing around a corner in his jeep and almost hit me head on.

The empty lot next to their building is being completely built upw ith some sort of retail/housing thing -- I wonder what the new neighbors are going to think about the Mythbuster antics. :evilgrin:

[PVnRT]

19. I'd like to teach them what "statistically significant" and

that you can't "bust" a myth (short of a rigorous mathematical proof), you can only fail to reject the null hypothesis that the myth is just that.

Statistics lectures + Kari Byron = MASSIVE hawt

[Cannikin]

20. We watch that all the time, and we might have a tiny crush on Tory...
