  5. I agree, and we've seen this before.

    Think of Pet Rocks and Mood Rings.

    Prior to the advertising push, you didn't know you wanted those.

    I have some experience in this.

    I'm 72 years old but I'm only 14.

    I'm not in this demographic because I know that robots' DNA is made of magic rocks.

    Appreciate there are people who refuse to kill rattlesnakes.

    I was dragging OP by the fucking neck even further down the off-topic dead end street.

    Hopefully, OP got the hint.

    Apparently, you didn't.

    I apologize for my shortcomings.

    ... what the simple fuck is a notch and why am I furiously outraged that Google is doing this to the children.

    I'm an iPhone user from day one. Work pays for them.

  21. I agree and don't forget that the money the NRA spends on lobbying for gun manufacturers does not come from membership fees.

    That money comes from the manufacturers themselves and special interest groups that want the gun industry in their district to do well (jobs).

    The NRA is a half-assed organization. I'm a member because I support the half that promotes gun safety, family sports, hunting, and competitions.

    The other half fronts for the gun industry. I don't give a flying fuck about the goddam gun industry.

  22. I agree.

    I took a deeper dive into the 3D gun printing, "Oh noes!", and I've decided it's a Tiny Tim.

  23. Because the investment in machinery and tooling required to build guns costs far more than a few guns.

    For now, right?

    Same as building wood furniture... it's cheap if you don't count your capital investment and time spent.

    For now, right?

    I'm not talking about now.

    I'm talking about a future when 3D printer technology follows Moore's Law.

  24. Why would you assume that the NRA is a manufacturing PAC?
