Same. Surgery is not fun,
Tomorrow's a big day!
Get my tooth fixed and soon my SCAR will look like this.

That's a cool rig 
Reaper, hope the tooth work goes well! 
Power to the tooth!
Yay! Always good to get a tooth fixed. Especially if it's causing pain.
Did that a year ago. Wasn't anything big but still a relief when done
Well my day started off good and bombed at the end. My surgery went well now I wait for next month to finish the root canal. As for the airsoft grenade launcher...total bust 
! The launcher had defective latches and wouldn't lock onto the rail on the SCAR, so I'm sending it back and hopefully try and get a different one.

Good about tooth!
Sorry about launcher.
Tooth is more important though.
Thanks guys, it feels great being able to drink cold beverages and not have to worry about pissing off the tooth
.As for the launcher, I do have a plan b. This should fit the SCAR and if not the BB gun that I have.

Paycheck in two days. Too much will just bounce off my account to creditors. Bah and/or humbug.
Not much going on my end. I'm waiting for my refund to hit the bank so I can buy that replacement grenade launcher, I'm also dog setting my sister's chihuahua till her and husband fully move out to his farm and I'm probably won't be moving into their old home till probably later on this year.

Forget Plan B (the underbarrel GL), I'm going with Plan C. It's cheaper, all metal and customizable.

Now you just wanna cosplay Arnie from T2
More like a Tom Clancy character .
.
Meh, I still say Arnie since that's kind of the gun he finally toasts the T-1000 with at the mill
It was kinda disturbing, the T-1000’s death scene. All the shrieking and struggling to survive. It almost made the T-1000 seem more… human, than the T-800s.

I would agree and it makes sense to me. I mean, the T-1000 was the one that was much more able to mimic human behaviour whereas the T-800 was much more robotic in nature. Still able to pass as human but less so.
The T-1000 even seemed pissed when portraying the woman on the phone and the guy comes in for a milk and it stabs him with an annoying look on its face

But was its reaction to “dying” a programmed behavior or did they program the thing to feel pain and so the reaction was an honest to goodness organic “I’m in so much pain” reaction? It’s interesting to think about.
Had a wonderful dinner of rotisserie chicken and Walmart's Deli famous ranch style chicken wings. It was like Nostalgia in my mouth

I doubt that was programmed. Rather I think it was just the AI trying/wanting to survive the molten steel. Why it went through all the characters, I don't know. But I guess it tried any and all things it simply could do at this point in an effort to try and find something that worked. Had it been able to fly it would have done that, or at least tried.
Got my refund in and ordered Plan C. Stay tuned for next week for more goody goods.
Yes! Today the Official Rocu Car™ passed 300,000 kilometers!

I always saw the cycling through characters as a sign of the machine’s cpu going haywire due to the degradation the extreme conditions the molten pit were causing. I think you may have the right of it though; the machine was panicking and cycling through the personas it had acquired in a vain hope that one of them could extricate it from the pit.

Radio Data System?
Red Dot Sight .
That magnifying scope also flips to the side, kinda like some of those scopes in my favorite Tom Clancy games. Only downside...it feels more like a toy scope then an actual scope lol. Well it only cost me $10.00 so yeah, not depleting the metal mines anytime soon lol.

Never been too much of a red dot fan myself. Always preferred a scope or on shotties open sights.

You? Traditionalist? Nooooooo…
The first rifle my dad bought for me was an Italian milsurp rifle called a Carcano. It wouldn’t work well with a scope due to the way you had to load the clip in, so he had a red dot put on it. I don’t remember it being very accurate at longer ranges, but I think dad figured I probably wouldn’t be shooting at anything beyond 100yds anyway.
A Carcano rifle you say? Were you in Dallas on November 22nd of 1963 by chance?
