    So it is a firework, or does it have a practical use? That looks like it's out of The Last Boy Scout, holy crap.

    Besides the obvious use as one hell of a way to start a bonfire, I'm guessing it's main purpose is just to look cool as hell. Though with what looks like magnesium (given how hot that shit burns), it can probably also double as an overkill flare gun or a "maybe non-lethal?" home defense round... if you don't mind the very real possibility of burning down your house in the process.

    Here's where you can buy them
    , along with a bunch of other insane shotgun ammo that has no practical purpose.

    The new youtube set up doesn't let you queue to your chromecast anymore? Lame.

    The round burns out way to fast to be useful as a signal flare. There's no way I'd use as a non-lethal round either...the bright flash will destroy your night vision and clearly mark your location as well as burn your house down unless its made solely of concrete/stone.

    Just buy a case of Lonestar and a water balloon slingshot or spud gun. When an intruder comes near lob a can a hundred yards in the other direction.

    That's also how I keep inlaws from my house.

    The fucking desert. I hate the fucking desert.
    The trick is you know it's coming, so you wear two eye patches like a fucked up, really stupid pirate. Granted, you won't know where the round is going but that's just a minor point of order. Your enemy will have their night vision completely fucked and you'll be standing there with a shotgun and completely blind. If I've learned anything in my time on this Earth, it's to avoid blind folks carrying dangerous weapons.

    Or you could just wear a welding helmet.

    Or repurpose those eclipse glasses everyone has now.

    In a heated discussion, we've decided that the best Game of Thrones halloween costume for me will be "Janie Trannister", a trans version of Ser Jaime.

    South Carolina is weird when you're the only one not drinking whiskey from a bottle with no label.

    Wasn't Jaimie the feminine one of the twinset anyway? Cersie is all about that masculine evil queen look.

    We noticed how shitty SC is when we drove through. There is a giant....theme park?...called South of the Border or Bordertown right along the Highway where being Mexican is as mythical as being a knight or something. I am glad I was not driving because I would have crashed the car.

    So it's like any carnival except the guy running the Gravitron is wearing a sombrero and it's called "El Gravitrono?"

    I drove by South of the Border today. I've always wanted to stop but my family doesn't share the sentiment. I will forever wonder what it's like.

    You're not missing anything. It's objectively bad not even in a so bad it's good way. If you're around that area hop off 95 in Latta for Shulers BBQ.

    Around here the fair food revolves around Bloated-Meaty-Meat-On-A-Bun and Deep Fried (absolutely fucking anything).
