'Doomsday' hammock sighting

[G.L.P.]

Rule #1 is make sure your bunker location has a good water source. He is planning a desert location?
Rule #2 is don't mishandle firearms and disable yourself or family/friends. EVER!

Hmmm...wonder how ready he is for this (fill in the blank) disaster? I'll be heading somewhere other than where he (or others like him) are and it will handle hammocks too.

Amen on rule #2
ALWAY treat a Firearm as if it was loaded

Actually I was thinking he was the kind of neighbor I need. An extra cache of goodies belonging to a Darwin candidate. ;-)

LMAO, Body942 I love the finger sandwiches....

Bruises the pride? I'd say it beats it, bruises it, cuts it into itty bitty pieces and buries it alive!

Yeah, that was my Scots-Irish sense of irony and understatement. I'd say your description is more accurate! Can't wait to watch that episode. I hate to laugh, at misfortune, but it's hard not to.

I have seen the previews for this episode but not seen it air yet.........looking forward to the episode. Will look closely at the hammock when it is shown. Can't believe he shoots his thumb off, glad he is headed for the desert away from me!!!!!

I dont think Ive ever placed my thumb in front of a barrel....

We're all thinking about this the wrong way. Clearly the gentleman involved is supposed to be some kind of expert, so for the sake of argument, we'll say that he's 'Clever'.

In that case, it's clearly an evil scheme- be documented 'misfiring' your weapon in a way that is not only painful but embarrassing, then, come the zombie apocalypse, you're safe to leave your least favourite relative/neighbour as injured zombie chow. Injured by accident, clearly, you have a record of that, remember that time when they were filming for the Discovery Channel...?

Thank you!
What I remember him saying was "don't ever put anything on top of the barrel you aren't willing to lose". I was thinking maybe he had a stovepipe jam and was using his left hand on the slide/action when something went bad. I actually took out a couple of guns to try to recreate (unloaded of course) the positioning, but could not. I think he did something even dumberer and came up with a story that sounded...umm...better?

I am loving that show, cracks me up and gives me the occasional good idea. Heck, it's got Genuine Draft talking about prepping now. Already talking about how to hang a hammock in a buried storage container. Love it when a plan comes together.
