Re: The Entertaining Pics Thread (definitely with NSFW conte

The A-10 is basically a massive Gatling gun with a fuselage, a few wings, a couple of engines and a cockpit strapped around it. Remember reading that the gun always points slightly down even when the plane is flying level and the shape of the plane means it can have pretty low airspeed and still be ...

Presuming you haven't pebble-dashed the toilet bowl and then a solid lump causes the splash back that it.
If you're any way healthy then a daycint log dropping out into the clear water makes the clean-up somewhat swifter.

I'd go for the one of the plain 36" rollers.
