I've been real snappy lately. Stuff's been getting under my skin with appalling ease, and I've been pounding keyboards and biting off heads with what is, from the safe remove of five minutes later, very little provocation.
I need a vacation, maybe?
Also, I have a new theory of getting irked that involves sub-atomic particles, but it still needs a little polishing. And a particle accelerator.
I promise not to rat you out to Homeland Security.
ReplyDeleteWell, I am sure I could figure it out. But the budget for the coils would be massive, copper isn't as cheap as it used to be.
ReplyDeleteWell, as I am a doctor, I recommend intense shooting therapy this weekend with broad application of Broad Ripple breakfast. Perhaps a bicycling trip?

ReplyDeleteThats what i aim for. I dont see a problem here.
I concur with Dr. Shooting Buddy's diagnosis.
ReplyDeleteAnd I'm not a Doctor. I'm a Master...
Concur with the Trigger Therapy Diagnosis.
ReplyDeleteI suspect you were infected with the State Fair Mandatory Disarmament Virus, and the lack of a Firearm on your hip has led to that Itchy Feeling under your skin.
Take Two Magazines and call us in the morning.
Noticed the snark had a bit of a bite of late.
ReplyDeleteProbably some range time is called for. I know I want to get some in the near future.
Looks like the world will turn for a bit longer so I suppose I can dig into the stash some.
Yup looks like we can ALL afford to expend some of our stock, as supply appears to be catching up.
ReplyDeleteRange time has always been a vital part of the sress-relief triad
Just remember what happened to Bruce Banner when he tried to use gamma rays to cure his headache.
ReplyDeleteWe might not like you when you get especially irked.
Take up boxing for a change of pace. Don't do Karate. That's the Dane Cook of martial arts.

ReplyDeleteBut if you do, please make sure RX has the video cam handy.

Go some place and have some fun.
ReplyDeleteTypically it will take 2 or 3 days at a minimum for some fair degree of decompression for me.
We'll wait for you to come back.

I cuncur there may be a dip in your nitrocelulos levels; I know there is in mine. Also salt. Doc Shootin' Buddy has the right of it, methinks.
ReplyDelete"sub-atomic particles"
ReplyDeleteYou've read, that font of all knowledge, Mr. Pratchett of course!
You are obviously subject to the irk variety of Leonard Of Quirms malady.
Personally I tend towards the assumption that irks are in fact parasitic organisms that following infection, multiply and then irritate the host so that they then infect as many nearby contacts as possible (transmission is usually via the verbal aural route).
I keep asking for funding to find a vaccine but ... In the meantime, I always find alcohol a good irklgesic - nothing irritates me when I'm drunk (or as we like to call it over here 'spannered').
Able,
ReplyDeleteI call the particles "annoyons". I'm very close to publishing. :D
I suggest using a magnetron from an old microwave oven and a home-made wave guide to set hippies on fire from your porch.
ReplyDeleteThis is soothing.

Got plans?
I'm all in on a long range hippie igniter. I think we could go commercial with those.
ReplyDeleteRaytheon had the same sort of general idea and called it an "Active Denial System". I guess calling it a long range hippie igniter was non PC. I bet a few Generals were chuckling under their breath at the demo, "burn hippie,burn hehehehehe"
ReplyDeleteIf you want a particle accelerator, you can build one.
ReplyDeleteNo word on whether it will ignite hippies at distance.
"Long range hippie igniter" AKA: captured Martian heat ray sounds good to me. I also highly recoment Arizona RxStress Herbal Iced Tea. While it may sound a bit hippyish, it actually works.
ReplyDeleteWV: 38 ioiions Is that the atomic weight and composition of those particles?
It's summer. Hot, sticky and everyone has an edge on their attitude.
ReplyDeleteMight I suggest going to somewhere with trees & altitude? Bring along plenty of ammo and you're golden.

ReplyDeleteSpeaking as an MD, those symptoms suggest that you may in fact be a surgeon.
Wait, couldn't you combine a long range hippie igniter with an Earth Fucker 2013 that runs on Hippie Tears and have an environmentally sustainable vehicle?
ReplyDeleteNo word on whether it will ignite hippies at distance.
ReplyDeleteIt needn't actually *ignite* them. If it burns their arses a little they'll accelerate.
I recommend that you get the Z3 fixed, put the top down, and accelerate all your particles to a ludicrous speed, or at least, pretty damn zippy.

I want to point out most strenuously that despite the ponytail, I am not a hippie. I don't even shoot those pansy NATO calibers, I prefer 7.62x54r.
ReplyDeleteJust sayin'
On the topic; I have rented a 32' RV, at it's site in Pensacola, FL.
ReplyDeleteThe g/f unit and I shall depart Galvetraz at 0500 Sunday, with a return one week later.
Chief on MY agenda, is fishing, sitting my ass in a comfy beach chair, smoking fine cigars, sipping bourbon, reading books and seriously shifting my melanin level towards the Presumed Welfare level.
Of course, I'll also make a day of the Naval Flight Museum, and a side-trip down coast a bit to see my niece and her fambly.
Got the RV from a Craigslist ad. (checked out OK, even verified with local P.D. to ensure it was actuall on site, and not a ripoff)
$400 for the week. Cool, the savings are already spent on fishing tackle, fine cigars and good bourbon.
Stress relief. THIS is a vacation. Flights to exotic lands, cruises, etc., are "travel", but this is a VAY CAY SHUN!
Tam, just let me know if you want the RV landlord's listing. It's a sterling location, and deal.
