| #4pluisjenDec 20, 2010 12:21:50 | Jägerkin are awesome. |
| #5Mad_JackDec 20, 2010 15:15:59 |
Ye'r welcome t' try, boyo, but ye'll not be havin' me hat.

| #6EscherEnigmaDec 20, 2010 15:22:32 | I didn't even know ADH had a hat... |
| #7zombie_babiesDec 20, 2010 15:38:47 | Everyone has a hat. Even Hats McGillicutty. |
| #8WahooneyDec 20, 2010 15:46:27 | I didn't even know ADH had a hat... That's because it wasn't really worth mentioning ![]() |
| #9ADHadhDec 20, 2010 16:11:13 | I didn't even know ADH had a hat... It's not like your's any better. (will reply more properly after I get home) |
| #10WahooneyDec 20, 2010 16:19:01 | That's because all the glorious ones are the wrong size! |
| #11EscherEnigmaDec 20, 2010 16:30:07 | It's not like your's any better. Aye, but at least the lad 'as 'is hat still on 'is 'ead, aye? |

| #13KlirshonDec 20, 2010 23:17:23 | Everyone has a hat. Even Hats McGillicutty. Even I have a hat. It is a requirement to blend in with fleshling society. Failure to possess cranial attire would attract undesirable attention which would disrupt my agenda. |
| #14ADHadhDec 21, 2010 12:39:53 | Oy! Problem solved. As Hy got back East, zum Ukrainian boy tried to be fonny. Now Hy hef vun uf dese:![]() Maybe nekst time, MJ. |
| #15idhrinielDec 21, 2010 14:32:08 | Aye, that be true, but 'tis not a hat one wears all seasons, 'tis not? Oh, bloody 'ell, I can't do vis anymo'. You can 'ave your bloody 'at, and I 'ope it keeps ya nice and warm. ![]() |
| #16ADHadhDec 21, 2010 14:41:51 | Aye, that be true, but 'tis not a hat one wears all seasons, 'tis not? Whatever hat am I wearing, it will never be as glorious as my hair1. Part of the reason I don't like winter. 1Maybe with the exception of Ol' Man Death's hat or the one on jagerkin.tk |
| #17WolfLordBranDec 21, 2010 15:06:00 | Damn... I'm pretty good with accents and sufficient in German and I was going "Was ist das?!" when I was reading the OP. Then I realized this was the OTT... On an unrelated note, es ist zehr kalt ins miene hause! (pardon my grammer mistakes) |
| #18EscherEnigmaDec 21, 2010 15:12:39 | ... it's cold in your house? |
| #19WolfLordBranDec 21, 2010 15:15:35 | Ja. Granted, that isn't too difficult to figure out. Not that you'd have to deal with such things, Mr.-Lives-in-a-desert-where-it's-always-hot... ;) |
| #20EscherEnigmaDec 21, 2010 15:24:27 | Always hot? Are you kidding? It's 63 degrees outside! I had to wear a jacket while walking to work! Tonight it might get as low as 36! I've had to put an extra blanket on my bed! |
| #21pluisjenDec 21, 2010 16:04:25 | I thought you lot had it really cold there, but then I bothered to convert the temperature here to Fahrenheit and I find out that it's 30F here. And it's probably going to get colder this winter, down to 14 or so if it stays cold like this. |
| #22zombie_babiesDec 21, 2010 16:12:55 | Heh, last week 14F was our high. ![]() |
| #23Robin_HoodlumDec 21, 2010 16:42:46 | I never wore a hat before the Army. In the Army, you must always wear a hat, unless inside. Ever since I got out, I have to wear a hat, otherwise I feel uncomfortable. Also, ever since the Army, I have worn nothing but boots... I haven't had a pair of sneakers on for 10 years at least. Funny... the things that stick with ya... |
| #24pigknightDec 21, 2010 16:54:58 | I never wore a hat before the Army. Sir, yes, sir! |
| #25Robin_HoodlumDec 21, 2010 17:32:45 | I never wore a hat before the Army. LOL! Unlike the Marines, the Army doesn't call the Drill Sergeant "sir". A guy in Basic Training made that mistake... the Drill Sgt SCREAMED at him "DON'T CALL ME SIR... I WORK FOR A LIVING!" Only Officers are called sir in the Army. |
| #26WolfLordBranDec 21, 2010 17:52:21 | Always hot? Are you kidding? It's 63 degrees outside! I had to wear a jacket while walking to work! Tonight it might get as low as 36! I've had to put an extra blanket on my bed! Back when I lived in Arizona people thought 60 was cold. They don't know cold. Cold is 20' morning noon and night. Maybe if you were up here in NE you'd see what it's like... |
| #27pigknightDec 21, 2010 17:59:25 | I never wore a hat before the Army. Ma'am, yes, ma'am! |
| #28EscherEnigmaDec 21, 2010 18:05:28 | Back when I lived in Arizona people thought 60 was cold. They don't know cold. Cold is 20' morning noon and night. Maybe if you were up here in NE you'd see what it's like... If by "NE" you mean "New England", then "been there, done that, moved away when I was in middle school". |
| #29pluisjenDec 22, 2010 4:25:46 | Heh, last week 14F was our high. Yeah, that's cold. I wonder if we'll get down to negative Fahrenheit this year... I think that happened once as far as I know, during new years eve in the middle of the night. |
| #30ADHadhDec 22, 2010 5:08:07 | Yeah, that's cold. I wonder if we'll get down to negative Fahrenheit this year... I think that happened once as far as I know, during new years eve in the middle of the night. It's in 30F now, and that's considered warm ![]() Warmer than lately anyway. I don't think it got as low as negative F this year... but I'm not proficient with that scale (that would be some -20C? I think it got very close to 0F). |
| #31pluisjenDec 22, 2010 5:15:21 | Yeah according to Google it's somewhere near -18C. |
| #32zombie_babiesDec 22, 2010 8:51:01 | I never wore a hat before the Army. Hat? I thought they were called 'covers'? Hrm, maybe that's just a Marine thing. Yeah, that's cold. I wonder if we'll get down to negative Fahrenheit this year... I think that happened once as far as I know, during new years eve in the middle of the night. When we were out hunting this past Sunday, our day started at 3F. Chilly. This week has been wonderful in comparison. We got up to around 30F every day. I honest to god felt warm. I mean, it's not, but compared to every single day the week before bein' about 15F it really kinda is. |
| #33Mad_JackDec 23, 2010 2:13:39 | It's mostly hovered around the 20's-30's F around here lately, although during the afternoon it feels like it goes up to about 35 or 40... Which is actually a bit warm for this time of year. Very Useful Conversion Calculator (temperature, volume, length, distance and area) 0 degrees F comes out to -17.7 C... 50 degrees F is 10 C... 100 degrees F is 37.8 C... |
| #34ADHadhDec 23, 2010 5:55:17 |
That's surprising; I thought 100F was supposed to be human body temperature, and it's 36.6C. |
| #35toastedamphibianDec 23, 2010 6:26:08 | 98.6 is human body temp |
| #36Robin_HoodlumDec 23, 2010 6:40:22 | I do most of my work outside... in southwestern Pennsylvania/ northern West Virginia. I frequently work around/ in streams and springs, to collect samples, flow rates, etc. and must stick my hands in the water often. The air temp. around here has been in the low 20's (F), and the water I have been sticking my hands in has been around 0.9C. So, just above freezing. My hands are red as a beet when I get them outta the water... and they burn. |
| #37pluisjenDec 23, 2010 6:46:20 | Auch. I know how water can "burn" from being cold, it's pretty damn unpleasant. Don't you have some sort of gloves against that? |
| #38toastedamphibianDec 23, 2010 6:54:21 | I do most of my work outside... in southwestern Pennsylvania/ northern West Virginia. Perhapes you should aquaint yourself with a bit of human ingenuity, namely, attaching things to sticks so that you can hold them in a place without having to put yourself in that place as well. ![]() |
| #39EscherEnigmaDec 23, 2010 12:02:55 | I do most of my work outside... in southwestern Pennsylvania/ northern West Virginia. Wait, what? The air temp is 20's (F), the water is 0.9C... so the water is warmer then the air. Makes sense (bodies of water are more resistant to temperature change then air so normally lag behind whatever the air temp is), but why the swap from Fahrenheit to Celsius? |
| #40zombie_babiesDec 23, 2010 12:07:28 | I'm guessing because the equipment he's using measures temp in Centigrade, he's required to report the numbers using that scale or both. |
| #41Robin_HoodlumDec 23, 2010 12:13:29 | Auch. I know how water can "burn" from being cold, it's pretty damn unpleasant. I should get some... But I need my fingers, and most gloves are just too thick. |
| #42Robin_HoodlumDec 23, 2010 12:16:32 | I do most of my work outside... in southwestern Pennsylvania/ northern West Virginia. It would freeze up and not work. Guaranteed. Also, it is one more thing (on top of a lot of equipment already) that I would have to carry around. And, it doesn't give me as much control as I would need in most situations. But thanks for the tip! |
| #43Robin_HoodlumDec 23, 2010 12:29:54 | I do most of my work outside... in southwestern Pennsylvania/ northern West Virginia. Because I heard the air temp on the radio given in Farenheit, and I collect my water temp in C. And I can't do the conversion calculation in my head. |
| #44Robin_HoodlumDec 23, 2010 12:31:19 | I'm guessing because the equipment he's using measures temp in Centigrade, he's required to report the numbers using that scale or both. Yes. We must submit the data in Centigrade. The equipment can be set to either, but we keep it where we need it. |
| #45Ragnar_LodbrokDec 23, 2010 14:16:57 | So is your job related to protecting the environment in some way or exploiting it to the very last drop? They aren't always mutually exclusive, ya know. Seeing as he has mentioned working with bats before, I'd assume it's closer to what you'd consider "protecting". |
| #46Mad_JackDec 23, 2010 22:41:38 | It depends if he bites their heads off. Considering RH's political views (and the fact that he can type coherently), it's reasonably safe to assume that he's not actually Ozzy Ozbourne hiding behind an avatar... |
| #47ADHadhDec 27, 2010 6:41:28 | Are you sure he is not some incarnation of Evil? Ozzy was a good Christian, it was his producers that made all the satanic symbolism. At least at first ![]() |
| #48Robin_HoodlumDec 27, 2010 8:49:18 | Must... Resist... ![]() |
| #49EscherEnigmaDec 28, 2010 3:37:52 | You have experience with make-up then? How successful are ye at with hiding the beard shadow? I couldn't really pull it off, but I'm not sure how much of that was me being crap at blending or not having a foundation that really matched my skin tone. |
| #50Mad_JackDec 28, 2010 4:05:04 | You need to shave just an hour or two before you put on the makeup, and make sure you shave close. Give your face time to recover (at least half an hour) and then check both visually and with your fingertips to see if you missed any spots you couldn't feel right after you shaved. Your foundation really does need to match your skin tone as well - that's actually the most important part, unless you're planning to cover every last visible portion of your face with it (It's definitely the key to concealing the edges of latex prosthetics from more than a few feet away). |

| #53EscherEnigmaDec 28, 2010 16:40:25 | Eh, I was the only "chick" there. The rest were all the genuine article to the best of my knowledge. |
| #54Robin_HoodlumDec 28, 2010 17:44:15 | Eh, I was the only "chick" there. The rest were all the genuine article to the best of my knowledge. Hmph! That's sorta... disappointing.... |
| #55Mad_JackDec 29, 2010 0:32:35 | Honestly, in that picture.... It's the shoulders. The shoulder and arms just can't pass. |
