And, have you told him?

I have, he is currently drawing Haraki a picture, the subject of which may or may not be Minecraft (his current obsession).

We're looking to purchase an Avery Dennison ST9500 Plastic Staple Fastener machine for the factory. If someone knows where I can find a slightly used one, but in perfect operating condition, for less than the $3,100 retail price, please let me know.

Cheers.

Has anyone concealed carried a pistol in waistband before with IH? Do I need to size up or will the denim stretch enough?

Considering how many pairs of IH I have, updating my wardrobe is not really an option

I sometimes hide packs of smokes in my waist band if I don't want Pam to know that I'm smoking on a night out if thats any help?

I haven't tried partnering Shooty with Stabby but it's hard to imagine a gun and holster causing problems unless you're stuffed into your jeans like a sausage.

[zhivago]

depends on the pistol really…

here is a pretty slim IWB holster that works for me

I've a G23 gen 4 with a plain ole rawhide holster and it's never been an issue in other pants, haven't tried IH.

Hi MiniTron

@Chris:

Is there some sort of open source e-reader?  I'd like to try reading books on my android based phone, but I have no desire to buy into a closed ecosystem, in case I don't like it.

And in the weird coincidence department, today my wife won a random drawing.  The prize?  A Kindle Paperwhite.  Guess I'm going to be going the Amazon route for ebooks…

The American insult "twot", is it the same as the British insult "twat"? Same meaning?

Why is the word "cunt" (apologies for such flagrant use) such a hammer blow in the US? Where I live it's a term of endearment/ nick name.

[mclaincausey]

Twot?  We sat twat. As in "twat?  Twat?  I cunt hear you."

The c-word is the nuclear armament of the American dialect. Call a girl that and everyone in the room is gonna hammer your ass. Call a guy that and he'll probably take a swing at you.

[Megatron1505]

I'm just watching Banshee, and someone definitely called someone else a twot, and this is not the first time I have heard it used…... wondering if it is the same thing.

Any other A Bomb insults I should know for my next trip stateside?

[mclaincausey]

Ah mega, my bad–we do pronounce it that way, but we spell it the same.

I would just call everyone a tosser, it's fucking hilarious (i wish i could pull it off but you need the accent) and most people won't understand what you're saying. Other than cunt, racial and homophobic (aside from tosser) slurs are the only other things i can think of that are at that same a-bomb level here.

[Megatron1505]

Cool, I'll stick with tosser for friends, and cunting twat for anyone else 

[mclaincausey]

Those tossers may not know what the cunt a "tw@" is, you may find you need to call them "twots". But be sure to SPELL any such graffiti as "twat."

[Megatron1505]

Thanks for the cunting advice you yankee tosser.

C*** in Australia, well my social level is a greeting. "Hows it going you cs" or " catch ya c"  . Now the last I heard a house mate say that to his mum and dad on the phone…
