If he's getting a Cornetto i want a Feast please?
OR a Magnum, but you will have to wait until i have completed my deployment and rendevoued at the Automated ATM Machine byu the entrance before i can re-supply the luxury items kitty.
Mint Feast or the original Big Feast? OR a Magnum, but you will have to wait until i have completed my deployment and rendevoued at the Automated ATM Machine byu the entrance before i can re-supply the luxury items kitty.
You should be carrying a magnum anyway.

To be fair, I'm not sure he cares about either. My email box gets all the ED stuff too, but it goes straight to junk, and since from 5Oh he already appears to be very much a right-wing kind of guy, what's the concern for him on that front?
I consider this a fairly weak effort. Please report to the Gold Commander at HQ Ops Centre (the marquee next to the beer tent) with your clipboard and hi vis, and complete a mandatory session of directing Joe Public to the car park as penance.
OK, but Big Marge from the cake and tea stall has just asked me to nip down to the shop for some milk and I'm busy fitting the snorkel and flashing lights to the monster truck as someone reported a puddle on the road. It's possible I may have to rescue people while there. I consider this a fairly weak effort.

Real heroes, brings a tear to my eye, carry on.

A mini feast is for non Emergency Responders.
You know how hot it gets when you are wearing Hi-vis waterproof reflective equipment whilst standing next to a car park entrance on the hottest September day for 55 years?
There was an 8% chance of rain near me so i had to rock the waterproofs, otherwise i would only be as prepared as all the fools enjoying the sun whilst we keep them safe.

Just out of interest, I've always had (until recently) cats as pets.
As a man does that make me one of your pussified males? Or do you mean something else?
Thanks! xx

Thing is the average member of the general public goes to these fetes without worrying about this sort of thing, it's guys like you who make it so they don't have to.
When the SHTF who is carrying the Leathernan? Not joe public that's for damn sure...!

50h,
Genuine question for you:
On this thread, you;ve never referred to being part of the military.
On the gun thread, you write about civilians as if you're not a civilian, and instead refer loosely to things like "my unit", "deployment" and "training in the mojave". Thing is - are you actually in the armed forces, or have you just copy / pasted from a Chris Ryan novel?

Leslie was devastated but managing to hold it together for the sake of the mission until a small child asked him why he had a girls name and he fell to pieces. Since 15 hundred hours Leslie has been sitting on a bench eating Haagen Das and crying.

I believe that he is a vet (not the ones that look after sick animals) of Operation Monkey Death Strike Revenge Hammer or similar. He lives in a hole in the ground under a house in the middle of nowhere with his long suffering family.
He has a tendon contracture in his right palm from constantly gripping a pistol as he is too anxious to do much without one in his hand. He avoids wearing a hip holster when driving for fear of getting in a accident and it breaking his pelvis.
In his down time he plans how he will kill his neighbours if they come for his supplies after 'the event". If the SHTF he would take other's supplies by force if necessary to save his family; he will still see this as being one of the 'good guys'. He likes to look at lots of guns on line, lots of them...then some more.
Nearly all his clothes are 'mil-spec', all his friends are male, he owns a dog.
Guns are the answer to his fears, except guns in the hands of bad guys; they shouldn't have guns but he would defend their right to have a gun until proven a bad guy. If the army came to take away his guns he would fight them even though they are the good guys.....sometimes this makes his head hurt.
He thinks making homophobic comments is still acceptable but if someone burnt the American flag he would be very upset, as its an insult to his way of life.
His world view is that America is good and that all other countries are on a sliding scale of 'not good'. It is not a nuanced view...
That's all I know, except a bit like the old Chem Chaos (one eye on the phone) he is also an Internet persona and enjoys playing up to it.
I'd buy him a drink and have a chat about PH threads. But I'd turn up wearing my purple suede Oliver Sweeney chelsea boots, just to make him feel uneasy.
It would be fun though, first of all we could sweep the room with our steely gazes, grading people on his threat radar (1-5 or maybe green, amber, red?) and checking for exits in case we need to get out of there in a hurry.
We would be carrying concealed weapons of course, I mean who doesn't go to the pub without firearms?
An hour in to our meeting, whilst having amusing banter on our differing viewpoints on Trump's Mexican wall, I would notice two Arabic looking guys enter the bar. They are suited, as if from the office, and look relaxed so I just keep an eye on them using the mirror behind the bar, 50 has sat us here with this in mind.
There is something off about them but I can't quite place it.....wait...it's the shoes. Not a smart office shoes but mil-spec combat boots. I mention this to 50 and his eyes narrow. "Hmmmm" he mutters "maybe our op-sec has been compromised"
Fifteen minutes later we emerge from an alleyway behind the bar after a frenetic medley of elbow strikes, eye gouges, shouts of Allahu Akbar and death to America, tactical reloads and pithy one liners.
"You did good JDW100', not bad for a Limey" says 50, somewhat ignoring his own heritage "you know, maybe you are one of the good guys after all".
"Thanks 50" I respond " next weekend I'm deploying to a major event with Chemical Chaos, at least I know it won't be as exciting and dangerous as this!"
How wrong I was........

I liked the idea of wearing the purple suede boots, just the right touch to draw attention away from your concealed weapon. Not something you'd find in the field manual but effective...
