A squirtgun full of pee vs sleeping gas and a big ass knife?

Damn, I thought talastan got screwed

We're not kissing up to the management are we?

**AustinChief** · 07-01-2011, 04:46 PM

WOW.. that is one heck of a starting distance!

I am gonna go with me here... what the hell is a squirt gun with ammonia gonna do to me??? Since I'm not a fish, I assume he can squirt me all he wants and it'll just annoy me until I get close enough to use my sleeping gas/knife combo.

You are a bigger man than that. You won't even need the sleep gas.

Doesn't ammonia act like acid since it's on the opposite spectrum of the pH scale? If so, it could be a bad day for ol' Kyle. I could be way wrong, though, so please forgive me. I'm, withholding my vote for now.

It's harmful in its pure state... BUT it also boils at -30 or some such in that state... so it would actually be ammonia hydroxide. Depending on the strength, it would at BEST be mildly irritating to the skin and pretty irritating to the eyes.. IF I caught a big blast of it with eyes open. But that's what my umbrella is for!

OH LOL

Well in that case, you should probably be the winner of this.

P.S. These are like the best threads ever.

Can you clarify "high powered"?

I'm assuming it's a commercial system that's relatively top end. Like one of those super soakers. I don't have much experience with them, but aren't they actually pretty accurate out to 30 or 40 feet or so? Someone can correct me if I'm wrong.

Check this out: reviews of water guns. Let's assume it's one of these, which means accuracy to about 30 feet.

**RealSNR** · 07-01-2011, 04:46 PM

1,931 feet?

As far as I'm concerned, even minutes' worth of prep time difference wouldn't matter in this fight.

I think this is a fight that takes for ****ing ever. AustinChief's bowie knife will be the deciding factor, and will be the killing weapon.

Well I don't think "forever".. if we assume Tooge isn't running away nor advancing.. I could cover 2000 ft in under 5 minutes easy. Even carrying a knife and umbrella. Although if we assume Tooge is running away, you are correct, this fight could last all day.

But Tooge, you'll have to sleep sometime...

**007** · 07-01-2011, 04:47 PM

tooge will be running for his life with no backup weapon.

**Rain Man** · 07-01-2011, 04:50 PM

This is a really interesting one, and funny that it's all chemical warfare.

So they're going to be stalking each other for a while. tooge is going to find the biggest open area he can and just wait. He's going to have nail austinchief in the face and then steal austin's equipment while he's incapacitated. But he's got the range to do it.

Austinchief is going to have to gut it up and know that he's going to get a face full of ammonia, and hope he can get to tooge blind in those last 25 feet or so. I'm wondering if austin should even hide his knife or if he should be swinging it madly while he waits for a chance to gas tooge.

I'm really torn here. I don't see austinchief being able to get within range, but it'll be risky for tooge to close in. Maybe if I'm tooge I try to blind austin and then I use other nearby materials to try to knock him out without getting close. What stuff can you throw that is on a normal downtown street and that's big enough to knock a guy out?

Can AsutinChief use his umbrella as a shield from the ammonia stream?
