About to start Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas

Are you sober? lol.

Yea, lol. Is it a bad movie or something? I've never seen it and everyone says it's pretty good so I figured I'd watch it.

LOOK MA, I'M A LUMBERJACK!!

Wood is frozen and looks to be a softwood of some sort. Pine, fir, or the like.

First thing I noticed was the frozen wood, then again looks like everything is frozen there.

You call using a log splitter a lumberjack's business ?

Poser

no room in the budget for a log splitter; had to make due with a splitting maul, sledgehammer and a tiny electric chainsaw

Ah, that's more like it

LOOK MA, I'M A LUMBERJACK!!

Looked at some of those axes today, they are wayyy to expensive.

Excellent splitting idea...and do-able without having frozen wood

Just watch it and you'll understand why I asked lol.

The stuff I'm splitting, pecan, has a Janka Hardness of roughly ~1800. In layman's terms it takes roughly 1,800 pounds of force to drive a .444" diameter steel ball halfway into a piece of pecan wood.

For comparison's sake, Douglas Fir is ~660, Southern yellow pine (most dimensional lumber) is ~690, Mahogany is ~800, Red Oak is ~1290, White Ash (baseball bats) is ~1320, White Oak is ~1360, Bamboo is ~1380, Maple is ~1450, and Mesquite is ~2345.

the short version: this shit be hard, yo

There's a reason the handles of axes, sledgehammers, mauls, shovels, etc. are made of hickory (very close cousin of pecan, same Janka hardness)

Yes I know my enemies

They're the teachers who taught me to fight me

Compromise, conformity, assimilation, submission

Ignorance, hypocrisy, brutality, the elite

You are what you eat. . . . Apparently the ND football team has spent the past few weeks devouring apple turnovers.

Thermador and WAY too clean

I've never flown, is it that bad ?

I haven't flown

yet this week, but also HATE US air.

It's not a bulletproof vest either. The material used for the clothes is what is bulletproof.

Where the fuck does the energy go? That is not real.

LOOK MA, I'M A LUMBERJACK!!

WTF is the trick there. I normally have to rent a splitter, but my axe doesn't look like that either...

sick

That could be one of the top 10 greatest architectural things I have ever seen, and I work as a structural designer.
