Do You Find it Attractive (or gross)?

[Sahara]

The guy that showed us how to do it claimed he shot a bird.
I missed my helper countless times. He would line up the studs to the top or bottom plates and I would spike them. Sometimes a nail would just graze the plate, missing him by a fraction.
We did hear of one guy who rested the heavy nail gun on his thigh with his finger on the trigger and shot himself.

I worked with an Australian builder a few years ago - Brad. We started calling him Jesus also....but for a different reason.

He shot himself in the palm of his hand with his finishing gun while nailing some door architraves up on the job.

Been there, done that, sorta. Shot myself in the foot with a two inch staple. Fortunately, it bracketed a toe, opening it up a little on both sides. Would have definitely busted a couple toes if it was moved over a half inch.
Limped, bleeding into the bosses office to get a pair of pliers to pull it out of my shoe, so I could see what damage I had done.
Kinda fun telling the story about the guy who shot himself on the foot.

I have a friend who is a natural blonde, but has had a gray skunk stripe for twenty years , so she dyes her blond hair blond. Occasionally she has a pink streak put in as well. Very subtle, not like the kids with the purple and green. I kinda like it, to be honest.
But please, no tattoos!

It's ugly but not as ugly as tattoos on a beautiful woman. Nothing screams "i'm a skank" more than some nasty arm and neck tattoos. Next time you should ask her if the curtains match the drapes!

I don't like tattoos. I don't like weird hair colors. I don't like short hair on women or long hair on men. Man buns are for queers.
Yeah....some can sport a tattoo and not look like a biker skank. Face, neck, chest or lower back ink looks bad to me on anyone.
The pink or blue colors often indicate a left leaning person which helps for knowing who to respect and who to avoid....

Had a guy here in Florida that shot a Sand Hill Crane at a construction site. It was walking around with a nail through its neck right until they arrested him.

Don't lie boys. How many FBBO members had this cut? I guess we can't really make fun of green hair.

Was this the seventies? The women were beautiful back then.

I've shot my left hand 3 times in my career. The first time I was screwing around shooting nails into the air. The other two times occurred when I was nailing in blocks and the gun "double tapped" and the second nail missed the wood and stuck in my hand.
It hurts but you pull the nail out, wrap up the mess, take a pill and go back to work.

I never did it THIS bad though!

Ouch... I have a picture of a buddy with a nail through his finger that I was gonna post but after that I don't see the point....

Back in the eighties a couple buddies were doing a cut & stack roof, helper was climbing up a ladder with a nail gun, apparently with the trigger pulled, he bumped the nose of the gun & shot himself in the junk....

Okay, I'll have to admit it. I had to look up 'architraves', being completely unfamiliar with that word. I'm not in that profession.

Pow....IN THE DICK.....IN THE DICK !!



In the head!



In the leg!




In the chest!

I have a friend who shot himself with a 1911 .45 cal in the foot. The gun was froze up during hunting. (Why he carried it on his hip while rifle hunting in Northern Minnesota? I don't know.) The bullet went between his big and middle toes. As well as breaking both toes. Lucky as hell. But took what ever meat that was on his toes and web on his foot. He was in pain for months. And has one ugly looking foot. As you can imagine?

Never did.
You got something to confess?

 

[VFilms]

I had extremely long hair when I was a rock drummer back in the sixties. It all went away when I joined the Navy. I've been looking for my hair since 1969 but to no avail.
Regarding individuality... please remember we are all different, just like everyone else.

I like girls that wear Pentagrams. They have a Pentastar in the middle.

It's for attention or for identity as belonging to some group/demographic. Tats? Meh....I don't mind them unless they're just badly done and no context. Hair length? I had hair down to my *** crack as a teenager, clouds of freaking hair. Rock star hair. Joined the Army in 1975 and they had fun shaving it all off into a pile that the Drill sergeant placed in my hands and made me carry it around for three days. He had a hard on for hippies...I was not one, but you know...

Are you sure it wasn't a "brad nailer"?

That picture is 1982..

I've seen worse, much worse. If they stop at the hair coloring I'm fine with it.
