Remember for this Halloween season, if a house gives your kids hard drugs, you say "thanks" because drug are hella expensive to just hand out randomly to children.

Hey hypothetically if you had a laser rifle and were fighting dudes with slug guns could you just carry a big bullet resistant glass pavise shield and shoot through it.

Wouldn't any wear or scratches to the shield distort the laser?

The shield itself would too, depending on the optical properties of the material. Best case scenario your laser isnt as effective (the beam is diffused over a wider area) or you have to adjust the aim. Possibly the shield heats up and softens to the point its no longer effective or melts and you get shot. Worst case scenario, maybe heats up everything around you enough to harm you (beam is diffused almost 360 degrees, projecting a portion of its energy in all directions), like setting off an incendiary right next to your own feet. Or you brought the wrong laser/shield, and your shield is actually reflective like a mirror to the wavelength the laser fires, and you shoot yourself/your friends.

You could instead design a shield that let's you easily fire over or around it, but offers decent visibility for the operator. Or just body armor. Body armor is probably your best bet, shields are awkward. Reflective coating on your armor will even help protect your from enemies with lasers.

I have no idea where anything is. I have no idea what anything does. This is not merely a madhouse designed by a madman, but a madhouse designed by many madmen, each with an intense hatred for the previous madman's unique flavour of madness.

Why is Featherweight considered a heavier weight class than Bantamweight?

Bantam=small chicken.
small chicken= many feathers
many feathers> one feather

For fun, I recommend telling Christians that Jesus is a demigod.

Oohohoo, yes!

The trick is to only make predictions semi-seriously.  That way, I don't have a 98% failure rate. I have a 98% sarcasm rate.
