What has pissed you off today?

[old11bravo]

Started assembling my .224 Valkyrie build with this barrel as the foundation:

22" .224 Valkyrie DMR Fluted Stainless Steel Rifle Length AR 15 Barrel, Premium Series

I bought it on sale and I swear it was advertised as having a .750 gas block journal at the time, so I bought the appropriate lo-pro gas block to go with it. NOPE! Discovered tonight when I went to install the gas block that it actually takes a gas block with a .875 inside diameter. Well fuck! That'll put this project back on the bench for at least another week. Going to order the new GB tomorrow.

Woke up with a massive headache, neck was at an odd angle.... woke up every 30 minutes it seems...must pulled the pillow out or something....Ate a light breakfast...Then threw it up... took a nice long piss, then 30 minutes later took another full piss.... Dunno how the hell my bladder could fill up so quick... Still feel kinda groggy.... got diarrhea so gotta go shit again...

Is this what growing old feels like? I want none of it!

Diverticulitis....and another Trip to the ER. Good news is it wasn't an Overnight or three in the Hospital this time.

Ouch!

Let's see, Diverticulitis, according to the Mayo Clinic:

Risk factors-

Several factors may increase your risk of developing diverticulitis:

Aging. The incidence of diverticulitis increases with age.

Obesity. Being seriously overweight increases your odds of developing diverticulitis.

Smoking. People who smoke cigarettes are more likely than nonsmokers to experience diverticulitis.

Lack of exercise. Vigorous exercise appears to lower your risk of diverticulitis.

Diet. Diet high in animal fat and low in fiber. A low-fiber diet in combination with a high intake of animal fat seems to increase risk, although the role of low fiber alone isn't clear.

Certain medications. Several drugs are associated with an increased risk of diverticulitis, including steroids, opioids and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, such as ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin IB, others) and naproxen sodium (Aleve)..

---

So, one that pops out is Diet high in animal fat and low in fiber. A low-fiber diet in combination with a high intake of animal fat seems to increase risk, although the role of low fiber alone isn't clear.

Sounds Iike it's time to sell the Traeger & buy an Oatmeal Maker

Hope you feel better...

Thanks NWG.

Let's see..

Aging? Check.

Smoking... Check

High Animal Fat and not enough fiber? Probably...Check.

The rest? Not so much.

Well, i could layoff the Beer...

You need the occasional beer to keep your kidneys cleared. Or else have to take medication that will make you grow breast like a woman. At least that's what my pastor told me.

I'm not entirely sure that banging vigorously on the glass at a hockey game counts as exercise. Just saying...

Banging is a good way to raise your heart rate and burn calories.

Oh shit. He used the T word.

[AR15L]

Stopped by Coastal Farm in Auburn on Thursday.
Wandering back to the gun section to look around.
I asked one of the counter monkeys why they didn't have any "VOTE NO I-1639" signs put up anywhere.
Guy #1 didn't know so he asked his manager.
This was his response:
"I can't get any".
I told him that if it passes, they would probably go out of business.
His response: "I don't think it will pass".

WTF????

Probably thought (or vote) 594 wouldn't pass either.

I know, right?

No Traeger, here, i don't like having to Vacuum Ash.

Sorry, got you confused with someone else, you all look alike on the interwebs

Now I think I recall it was a Charbroil...is that right, Diverticulitis Boy?



(before anyone gets mad, I have my own health issues that usrifle gives me plenty of grief about )

Look Stumpy, You got it all wrong here, i ain't playing around. While you are Cooking tube Steaks on a Hibachi, i am making some Smoked goodness.

I am Rocking this beauty. Side sear box with an Iron Grate that get's to 900 degree's. You want to Sear a Steak Fast and right after Smoking to about 115-120 internal?

You want to have that Kind of temp control with your Cooks, ease of Cleaning and the ability to dump your Hopper and change Wood Flavors?

This is your Smoker.

My Offset Wood burner isn't going anywhere, but the ease of use with this Smoker and the ability to really walk away is amazing.

Sit back and watch the Video Grill master NWG, you will soon see the Light. No, not your wife hitting you with the Flashlight at 3:00 AM when you are caught sitting in the dark on the Internet either.

These people are idiots. I go in there if I am desperate (VERY DESPERATE) for some miscellaneous item. On my last visit, this loud mouthed woman behind the counter was mounting a scope on an AR-15. The customer's 4473 was laying out for anyone to see, and she was clearly struggling to perform such a simple task. The customer was an older gent who was trying to be nice and patient. After I stood there for several minutes, she asked if she could help me. I asked if she had .300 Savage ammunition in stock. She poked around, tried to give me .300 Winchester, then .300 Weatherby, to which I repeated ".300 Savage". She then looked at me and said "Don't you mean .300 Savage Magnum?" NO SUCH THING, THANKS.

Unbelievably stupid. When all else fails make up some b.s.
