I just tried to slide across the hood of my mum's van. I do it a lot. Except this time, I was a few inches too low and hit the van full on. Ow.

@Fan, there's a calculator for that?

There we go. From Fan's first post, it appeared as if she was saying his chances of steamrolling the rest were high.

How did you conclude percentage anyway? By just population or...? NVM.

There's no calculator that I'm aware of (though I wouldn't be terribly surprised if one exists somewhere). I was just pulling that number out of my ass because it sounded silly.

They were mounting guns on tractors in the Crimean War and on railroad cars since pretty much the invention of the machine gun. Wouldn't take much to just bolt one to a car frame. Some might be a bit more professional and/or purpose-built than others, but any redneck with a drill, some rivets and/or bolts, a machine gun, and a bit of ingenuity can build one in his back yard.

This is why I don't do stupid things. Except that shower incident. Hey, anybody remember my shower incident? I still have a really grotesque scar from it.

Hello, everyone.

Yes, I realize that your OP says you are closed. On the other hand, it has been saying that for a pretty long time, leaving me doubting it. Therefore, to be sure, is this RP group still closed?

No, god, no. No one remembers, and no one needs to remember. In fact, I don't even know what you're talking about.

Taking my RPing with a bit of salt. Or like, just get some road salt and dump that crap all over. Then it might be fun...plus you might get a toxic overdose and fall into a coma! Comas are reeeeaaaaaalllll fun.
