Yup. He just doesn't give a f***. This apparently is him while Obama was speaking:

The only thing I dislike about him is all those "macho" photo opportunities. He doesn't need them.

For something other than the Ukraine, I've just spotted something rather familiar on the Mythbusters' Facebook feed...

Accelerating things at other things, I expect.

That or confirming the myth that people who've played Call of Duty think they know about guns than they actually do, because there's certainly a lot of wrong guesses in the comments. (Mostly that it's an Armsel Striker. Evidently, these people have not Googled to see what one actually looks like).

Yes...that guy behind our favourite cannon does look familiar...

I'm positive I've seen him before ...

Crimea river.

Cry me a river.

It's a sarcastic English expression used when someone is complaining too much.

They train primarily to make sure my government can safely evacuate (aka RUUNNNN!!) just like it happened over 70 years ago

The wikipedia article makes it seem it was a well organised retreat or something but... well they just run away like rats :-D


BTW
Here's something I created just a few minutes ago. Perhaps next time I'll make something that combines both electronics and pneumatics.

Got a new foot pump, filled my PVC dart gun with 3 bar. I didn't pump much because the ball valve was making some hissing noises.

I've always wondered whether they (or their researchers) have browsed the forum from time to time for a few myths.

They are watching right now to steel the next 'myth'. We should bait them for a fail....like a cannon ball gone wild! :oops:
