  • Taking Safety Risks To Boost Sales

    Meh… company owners taking safety risks to test their stuff used to shock me.  Now I just think it’s dumb: I hope those weren’t just biking shorts he had on underneath, and rather some sort of bulletproof underwear just incase the shooter missed or the bullet deflected. Yea sure it was only .22 LR in…

  • 2 Chainz Looks At Bullet Proof Suits For Going To Church

    Rapper 2 Chainz For GQ’s “Most Expensivest Shit”: Shit’s expensive, I’ll give them that.  I thought 2 Chainz would be more entertaining considering his lyrics are hilarious; he seemed kinda sedated in the vid.  Make sure you check out the GQ’s Most Expensivest Shit webpage to see all the ignorant stuff he takes a look at.…

A bit…

Actually the force behind most of the rounds would likely severely injure or kill you anyway.  That said, if I was on a deadly (presumably Japanese) gameshow…
