• We are now running on a new, and hopefully much-improved, server. In addition we are also on new forum software. Any move entails a lot of technical details and I suspect we will encounter a few issues as the new server goes live. Please be patient with us. It will be worth it! :) Please help by posting all issues here.
  • The forum will be down for about an hour this weekend for maintenance. I apologize for the inconvenience.

need some laughs to get away from frustration?

Here's a puzzle. You're playing Russian roulette with a friend, he picks up the revolver, spins the wheel, pulls the trigger and it goes click. Would you rather pick up the revolver and spin the wheel before pulling the trigger, or would you rather pull the trigger without spinning the wheel.

Why would you play this game with a friend? You'd have to hate someone awfully bad to be willing to risk your life in hopes of them losing theirs.

It's a logic puzzle. I actually read that this was an interview question for somebody.

I believe the answer is, you prefer to spin the cylinder rather than pull the trigger again. Spinning the cylinder gives you 1/6 chance of dying. Pulling the trigger gives you 1/5 chance (since you know the previous chamber was empty).

Hold the revolver close enough towards the front of your head that you can see which chamber the cartridge is in. then either "miss" or play. or you could use that one shot to shoot whoever talked you into playing this f'd up game.
wait, hasn't this question come up before on here?

Back on topic, very funny video. I'd definitely have that app if i had an iphone. Maybe keep it running and keep the iphone on your belt next to your firearm. When you get e-checked, ask the officer why he didn't check the other piece of lawfully owned harmless equipment on your belt. Or don't. Might end up making you seem un-friendly or something. There are laws against that right?
