Originally posted by Paul Jr Oh, really? You have this big ol' 50 pound sheer, and you really think I'm going to stand still long enough for you to swing it at me? Man, you aren't that bright, are you? I'd have you stuck half a dozen times before you could even lift the thing.
How long do you really think it'd take to land a blow with the things? It's not like I'm wielding some big battle-ax. And the thing is made to cut through sheet-metal. In shears vs. knife, I'd go with shears. Plus, the shears got the whole extended reach thing going on.
Here, I found a pic. Mine's a bit larger, though, and has a sharp point, but it gives you and idea:
(1)I've found human flesh to be easier to cut than sheet metal
(2)I could stab you as fast with the sheers as you could stab me.
(3)Because of #2, and the length of them, I don't have to be as close => I live.
(4)I don't get what you mean, they're clumsier. They're not at all difficult to handle. They're actually nicely balanced, and pretty easy to manipulate. If they weren't, how would I be able to cut out anything?
I said probably. I've never held a pair of 50 pound bench sheers, so I couldn't say for sure. They may be nicely balanced, but they are still a lot heavier than my blade.
Thousand different paths
So many sterile ends
I chose the Devil's path
Never shall the sun kiss my face
And caress me with it's burning light
For I dwell in the shadows
And sleep side by side with death
They're not any heavier to the point where it makes much of a difference. I just don't see how they'd slow me down any. Obviously, I can't flick it like a pocket knife; probably similar to a sword then.
Anywho, why are we arguin over this fictional event?

I could still stick you a few times before you could swipe at me.

Mr. Bob, sir, I propose we put our feud aside for a moment, and kill Benny Boy and possibly Mr. Harrison.
No, I wouldn't. I don't like repeating myself. Hey, just because I don't like listening to 2 teenaged nerds catfight doesn't mean you have to flip on me. *Shrug* And, hey, Harrison was the one to suggest this! Off him, not me! *Runs off*

Yes, actually you would -- and we aren't two teenaged nerds catfighting -- and I find it offensive that you used the numeral 2 in place of the actual word. Harrison may have suggested it, but you went along with it, so that makes you just as guilty as if you had suggested it yourself! I CONDEMN THEE!

No, I wouldn't, 'cuz I already would have. Sorry. Two nerds cyber catfighting, and I was using 2 to refer to the number two, so why get biatchy?
Well, I'm condemned so I'll let you and Bob get back to your round of cybering. Have fun.
