On a tangent... I have a friend who has more pipes in his room than books, but these pipes wouldn't be the kind that you would use for plumbing...

PSI, atm, torr, BAR, Kpa, Pa, Mpa

Well that's 7 right there. I guess you could count PSIG too.

you know you are a spudgunner when all of the local hardware shops know you on a first name basis.

You might be a spudgunner if every time you go in a hardware store you buy some type of pipe

you might be a spudgunner if every time you go in lowes the same employee asks you "you are not making a potato gun are you? you know that they are illegal."

you might be a spudgunner if you have more injuries do to spudding than anything else.


(the first two are me and I have had a few spudding injuries.)

Ouch! Little too much info there Crowley..... :wink:

OK, you might be a spudgunner if you start noticing how small and confined your suburban backyard really is... :roll:

Probably should've chucked a smiley of some sort in there, I hope it's not true :wink:


You might be a spudgunner if you spell Garage with a capital 'g' :P

So true...
You might be a spudgunner if your neighbors know to hide when they hear an air compressor.

You know you're a spudder when:

At least one of your pipe wrenches weighs more than the average dog.

Your air compressor has more horsepower than your car.

Your neighbours have the window replacement people on speed-dial.

There are enough galvanised fittings in your collection to coat every surface in your house 6" deep, including the ceiling.

Your chemistry teacher tells students on the first day of class to direct all questions to you.

Random people at school ask you if they can buy one of your lethal stunguns for twenty dollars.

You're voted "most likely to take over the world" in the yearbook at school for all four grades... In one year.

People actually walk up to you at school and hand you things they want destroyed.

You offer to give someone Brasil when you take over the world rather than paying back your $50 debt, and they accept it.

There are more than 3 sizes of large ball bearings, a video camera with steel armour plating, and two oxygen tanks sitting on your computer desk.

You spend at least 20 minutes per day trying to figure out how to get a potato to survive in the barrel with 10tsi and 20kK behind it.

You respond "Because I can" to more than 2 questions per day.

you might be a spudgunner if:

Instead of doing your homework you shoot your homework

when anyone has any need for things to go fast, your the first contact

when people walk in the door they see at least 3 peices of piping and one or two peices of ammo.

when you see lead, you add it to your collection to make lead slugs out of

your friends are afraid to come to your house

(by the way this thread is almost toooo true........ its scary)
