Hey. Its been a full minute and there is no poll yet. Get busy! :thumb:

 

What poll?
I hope Shotty is on it.

 

Ugh, how did I not get that one? Completely slipped my mind.

 

First time I had replies before the poll was up. You guys are fast today!

 

Shotty - what is a shotty?

"FIRE IN THE HOLE"

 

It's any kind of shotgun when spoken about by twelve year old gangsters and mall ninjas. While the configuration is variable the preferred set up is black with a pistol grip, tube extension, and 27lbs of flashligts, lasers, heatshields and bayonets. Most likely loaded with birdshot because that was the cheapest box of ammo at walmart.

 

Lol ... Great thread!!!!!! :

I'm so tired of "survivalist" and "prepper" speak ... All of it ...

and as for "shotty" ... I used to work at a gun range. There was a guy there why ALWAYS had to show the "shotty" to the hot chicks who came in. AND he had the rack the action UNCONTROLLABLY ... to show her how it worked. The whole store knew there was a woman in the shop (besides me) when they heard that sound.

I asked him one time if he always "finished" or if he was ever left "unsatisfied". : Man was he PO'd ... said something about a sexual harassment suit (and he was serious). I just laughed at him and said "yeah, that's gonna look good ... Big ole you being harassed by little ole me." : The rest of the guys gave him all kinds of grief about that!! :thumb:

 

"In times like these" and " In this economy" I get so sick of hearing this crap on the radio.

 

I'm more tired of illiteracy than any term or phrase.

 

Sheeple, It's over used and used to mean just about anyone the poster disagrees with.

"Your a sheeple because you don't agree with whatever conspiracy theory I'm espousing right now."

 

So someone has the brilliance to come to a preparedness forum and be upset over the use of common terms.

Why don't such people turn off the computer, go watch a foodball game and get upset at the use of the words and terms 'tackle', 'kick off', and 'pass'.

Definitely a sheeple like victim thing going on with that person.

 

i hate when politicians use comprehensive plan

 

There are a lot of terms that are getting overused

 

With regards to The Coming Economic Armageddon==>
"It's a mathematical certainty"

 

Here are some way over used phrases that get under my skin.

Calling polymer framed handguns - Tupperware

The "frog in the pot" analogy

The "Just the sound of racking a pump shotgun,will send most criminals running."

The "how's that hopey changey thing workin out for ya?"

"Put down the kool-aid"

Each time, the poster thinks they're bringing some ground breaking clever incite to a thread.

 

:rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl:

 

I like the terms.

what should we call "sheeple" other than "sheeple" ?

 

Sheeple is a great example for this.

If sheeple don't like the term sheeple, what are they going to do? They're frigging sheeple...they'll take it, because if someone doesn't, that person ain't a sheeple and doesn't have a dog in that fight.


Also, talking smack about sheeple in a survivalist forum is like talking smack about the Amish in a casino. They ain't supposed to be there to be insulted so there's no harm, no foul.

 

I am tierd of hearing and seeing then Phase "President Obama"

 

Can someone tell me what FUBAR means?

 

Didn't you watch Saving Private Ryan? It's German.

Really it means F'd up beyond all repair/recognition.

 

F@%#ed Up Beyond All Recognition

 

Fouled up beyond all recognition. Except a different "F" word is normally used instead of "Fouled".

Hey, I'm part of the 51%. And here I thought I wasn't a "sheeple." lol

 

The best thing about dehumanizing them as sheeple is they become a resource.


I like the regular terms and concepts, but there are some that are misused by foolish people:

One thing that is irritating is we have people who use the term "Main Battle Rifle" not when referring to a military firearm, semi automatic or semi automatic and full automatic, fed from a detachable magazine, firing a rifle cartridge, normally equiv or equal to .308 Winchester but when referring to any rifle because they think the term is neat and they intend to go into 'battle' with it in their survivalist warlord fantasy.

 

The best thing about dehumanizing them as sheeple is they become a resource.

OOOOHHHH if that doesnt get the Nazi card tossed at you nothing will... :

 

SHTF only has 5 votes....I can't think of a survival term more over used than that.

 

It may be overused but it is still relevant unlike many of the others

 

The best thing about dehumanizing them as sheeple is they become a resource.

Mmmmmm,tastes like stick pig.

 

I know I'm too literal but I hate the term 2012 is not going to happen.

It's not? If not then you believe the world ends in 2011!

 

I voted for "other". I'm getting sick of things that start with "What is the best..." and "If you could have only one...". When will people learn there is no one "best" anything? They need to learn to think about their circumstances and needs, then research to see what most closely fits their situation. And it is ludicrous to think that there will be anyone even moderately prepared who is limited to only one of anything.

 

Agreed, there is no end all be all in anything.

I will tell you folks what I’m tired of, The How’s and Why’s of a SHTF.

does it really matter if we get slammed with a some phantom comet or have an EMP dropped on us?

If you are prepping as you are living then "technically speaking" the EOTWAWKI will be three days past before you realize it.

 

TACTICAL!!! Sick of hearing it. Every other newbie on here wants to tell us about his "tactical" something...

 

Are camo condoms tactical?
