    UBER Sends Military Grade APCs To Pick Up Users

    Partnered up with Call of Duty. This is cool:

    Call of Duty ® Advanced Warfare and Uber partnered up with a powerful new class of rideshare vehicles: military-grade APCs. The Cyclone Armored Personnel Carriers featured combat armor plating, curb weight of 17,000 lbs, and 6.7L turbo diesel engines released 800 lb-ft of torque and took to the streets of LA during the week of E3.

    Wow, Call of Duty has quite the marketing budget.  They have been talking about this for almost a year now I swear.  It still doesn’t come out until November 4th of this year.  Note to self: Invent something pre-teen parent’s basement dwellers throw money at.

    Call-of-Duty-Advanced-WarfareIt would be cool if uber let you pick armored cars in general.  PreTHish CarGOOOO Comin’ threwwwwwwww  ahahah I slay myself.

    Thoughts?  Would operate with despite the fact you probably think Advanced Warfare is going to be a pile of shit?

    Instructor Zero’s Videos Are All About Stroking His Ego

    Impressive I guess, despite the fact he didn’t have a bag on his head:

    Instructor-ZeroI’m so terrible with accents.  I can literally feel the words passing through my ear into my brain, then my brain translating after looking up a “best match” haha.

    I hope he comes out with more crazy stuff on his channel.  These short “LOOK AT HOW OPERATOR AF I AM” videos are kind of meh.

    Archie Comics Tries Too Hard By Mixing Gay And Guns

    This is unsurprising and retarded:

    Archie-Gun-Shot-Die

    Oh wow, an “openly gay” character in Archie Comics, and a shooting of that character which Archie tries to stop and ends up taking a bullet and dying.  *gasps* *primal screams*  sooooo cutting edge… so edgy… so relevant to the struggles and things going on in today’s world. *eye roll*  To make things even better, the gay character Kevin Keller Keller is a married military veteran and newly elected senator who’s pushing for more gun control in Riverdale after his husband was involved in a shooting.  Like if that isn’t the perfect manufactured character and story line I don’t know what is.  I feel like I’m gagging on a rainbow filled unicorn horn right now.  It’s a real shame that the writers didn’t have the foresight to make Kevin Keller black or Mexican, a war amputee, and a transvestite midget too… that really would have pushed the “Ooooohs and Aaaaaaaahhs” over the top and gained major points for originality.  So much white privilege in Archie Comics it’s like a Hitler Youth publication.

    “We wanted to do something that was impactful that would really resonate with the world and bring home just how important Archie is to everyone,” said Goldwater. “That’s how we came up with the storyline of saving Kevin. He could have saved Betty. He could have saved Veronica. We get that, but metaphorically, by saving Kevin, a new Riverdale is born.”

    Archie-Kevin-Keller-GayROFL that quote is literally the gayest thing (no pun or disrespect intended) I have ever read.  My sister and I used to read a lot of Archie comics because my grandparents owned a store.  I lost respect for the franchise when they started repeating storylines years later in comics thinking people wouldn’t notice.  Well we did notice and stopped reading.  The comic also got watered down heavily as the world was beginning to change to what it is now, where people who own companies convince themselves they have to walk around on eggshells and not dare say anything non-politically correct which would piss anyone off.

    Gun That Fires Cash

    Make it rain hundred-dollar bills with this:

    Cash-Cannon

    LOL what you’re looking at is the Cash Cannon which goes for a cool $60.  I’m not entirely convinced it’s not vaporware considering it’s “sold out” and the instagram account is just a bunch of memes and selfies.  The facebook page has the one video, but it doesn’t even look like the product in the picture.  Ahhhhh I really hope it’s real.

    Cash-Cannon-2

    This is one product that would have been conducive to Kickstarter.  This guy could have promoted the shit out of it and pre-sold TONS of them at a bit of a lower cost.  Talk about this type of product is bound to go viral off the ridiculousness of it alone.  It sells iteself.

    Hornady employees could really use this thing.
