To the OOC thread with that comment

That's far too easy.

I'm trying to mod a Nerf gun for a friend, but I think I've worn down a couple of the screws. So, stripped.

Funny thing too, because only one of them looks really stripped. The others seem to be fine, so it might just be that the screwdriver I'm using doesn't fit or something. Weird.. got 8 of the screws out with it. It also might be that I'm screwing wrong.

Anyway, I'll worry about it tomorrow after my hands stop being all raw. Should have worn gloves.

Life hack #1453: To undo a stripped scrw, apply pressure from the screwdriver to the screw head through a rubber band.

Which hasn't worked either of the times I tried it

What did was taking a damned knife to the thing and wiggling/sawing it back and forth until I cut a new chasm into the screw for a flathead to stick into.

I would just say screw it and use thermite to remove the screw.

If you're going to remove the screw anyway, why do you screw it first?

[MonkeyHead]

I suggest a hammer applied in large quantites.

Really strong neodymium magnets.

Collateral damage on that scale is undesirable.

Good idea, assuming they are ferrous.

World War Z official trailer

Why does this make me rage?  Because as far as I can tell it has absolutely nothing to do with the book.  The book was great, why not make a movie that follows the book?  Why even use the title from the book if absolutely nothing was taken from the book?

I...what?

Okay, we know that the record for movies-based-on-books isn't all that great. And I can accept having a completely new tale to tell in a WORLD WIDE ZOMBIE WAR, and not following the book word-for-word.

But...I don't even know. They seem more like the running rage zombies from 28 Days Later instead of staggering zombies. How could they miss such a fundamental part of the book?

[penguinofhonor]

Yeah, I really like the trailer. The almost liquid way the horde moves is a really cool way to visualize them. It's just not a World War Z movie if they're like that.

[Nadaka]

Probably because slow zombies are incapable of posing an existential threat to humanity.
