I think I lost man points for my Youtube account not being registered as 18.

What the hell was I thinking. And I can't be bothered making a new account because this one has 130,000 views on my videos :)

Well, I think building spudguns gets you man points for DIY skill and destructive power.

According to Freud's logic, the bigger the gun, the more you're compensating for, so I'm quite safe there :D
Oh dear, where does that leave Schmanman?
I'm not too bad on that front, I build quite small cannons which still have that essential power, so I think it's a pretty good midpoint.

And about that Youtube video - why does everyone seem to need to quote comedy videos in the comments? I've watched the video, I heard that, a comment that consists of just one line that was taken straight from the video is not suddenly funnier, nor have I forgotten where it came from in the 10 seconds since the video finished, so neither so I believe it is original... mind you, ranting about it doesn't really help.
Does that thing kinda look like a big cat to you?

In a questionable position 0_o

I actually do find that helpful sometimes, for example I was looking for a particular segment of QI the other day when Alan Davies was making silly jokes (well, sillier than usual) - turned out to be this one - and I recognised it to be the one I was seeking from one of the quotes in the comments.

Well I haven't particularly found it useful, but in that case - where you have a complete section of an episode that's not cut to just a given amusing bit, maybe - but when the comments on that other video are full of comments that just read solely "harden the f* up", it hardly helps when that's the title of the video, and is just irritating.
It's like someone that repeats the punchline of someone else's joke repeatedly. If I go round repeating half a joke I saw on TV last night, no-one is fooled.

A baseball bat is fine, but a snow shovel makes a funnier sound.
Oh dear, where does that leave Schmanman?
Where does that leave me? (40ft barrel) :lol:
Nah, it's ok. I have a bunch of small guns and one of the smallest hybrids so it kinda balances out.
