@jimmy:

This is killing me can does anyone know how this is possible?

WTF?

My brain just melted….

[Geo]

easy - the hypotenuse isn't a straight line . . .

if you count the squares - the small green triangle is 5 by 2 and the large red triangle is 8 by 3 - so they are not the same ratio - therefore it's not a true triangle overall . . .

??? . . . nah . . .

[jimmy]

really i thought you were right, i am looking at both triangle's negative space above the diagonal line and they don't match exactly

[Geo]

no i mean i didn't believe you when you had been looking at it for weeks

what i said is geometrically correct - it is not a true triangle . . . the differing angles are close enough to fool the eye into believing they are the same

Ouh you were been nice….... You must be sick bro

What would the IH equivalent to Samurai's S5000VX cut be?

[Seul]

DC collab I think… But I'll leave that to someone more knowledgeable about Samurai...

[Max Power]

Yes, I think the DC4 too. The 634 is a bit slimmer than the S5000VX, so the widest cut should be it. But the Sam's got a higher rise than the Dc, if I'm not mistaken.

[Seul]

S5000VX is slimmer than the other 5000 fits, no?..

[Chris]

I think the 5000 cut is a bit more loose through the thighs than the DC collab, but this is really a question for beautiful freak, our resident expert in all things Samurai.

@Chris:

It's 2:30 in the morning, my wife has been asleep for hours and I'm exhausted.  My 3 year old son, however, is wide awake and refuses to stay in bed.  I may have to shoot him.

That's my IH coaster he's playing with, by the way.  I'm fully expecting him to toss it out our 14th floor window, because he's just that evil.

I still giggle about this post in Random Rants a couple of weeks ago, and am wondering…

Chris, do you still have an Iron Heart coaster?    ???

@Chris:

. . .  I may have to shoot him. . . because he's just that evil.

Madame, I think we should also ask if that little angel is still with us, 
hehehehehehehe

Anyone in USA have experience of sending a shirt over to the UK ? There's an awesome vintage Pendleton on Ebay that I'm looking at - shirt is 49.99USD and shipping to the UK is 40USD.

The postage fee seems a little high, or is that the going rate these days ?

Actually, looks like it's coming from Canada…

[Seul]

Canada ain't cheap - but 40 for a shirt?.. I'd say 20…

[Chris]

Never fear, Madame Buttonfly and Monday, both the coaster and Benjamin are still safe and sound.

I think that was the third night in a row he decided that he was going to party like a rockstar and I was getting dangerously cranky about it.  Being exiled from our house because of construction delays hasn't helped my mood, for that matter.
