    Yeah...but planes are more badass.

    Dude, so we are friends with this guy who flies a lot, who is low key insanely rich, and one day he just casually starts telling us about how he decided to sell his yacht at his aruba house but then some other yacht hit his yacht and it took on water so now he's getting this big insurance check back and maybe he will just rennovate it and keep it after all. Trying to relate to this was a bit hard. Yeah, I totally understand how much of a pain that must be, look at my boat! It's a model pirate ship, but I get how you feel my man.

    Was a good friend to have when I needed to fly Skeeter home though!

    And then you have to retaliate and fire your cannons at their yacht. I CAN TOTALLY RELATE.

    Gross. You keep your yacht in public? I have a private sea whenever I feel the need for the open waters. When I'm done with it I use my personal fleet of Mil Mi-26s to transport it to an ivory tower on my own island.

    I know, right! Yacht ownership is just such a pain these days.

    I actually got my little pirate ship as a joke to lightly mock people with stupid expensive rc boats and rc float planes. They are all amped up to do tricks and whatever, and I just like to make it clear that I don't have a skull and crossbones for nothing, move out the way when you see me sailing by. Of course, some asshat crashed into The Black Bird because he was trying to show off, and she took on water. I was a bit annoyed. RIP Black Bird, I will avenge your death.

    Once you get that fat insurance check it'll all work out.

    So, have you ever had that morning shower that feels really nice? The kind where the water is perfect, and it's cascading over your sore body parts? It's like a small slice of heaven in a 3x5 vinyl box. And then, you let out a fart that sounds like a Canadian moose mating call. The kind of fart that makes you look down to make sure nothing else followed its escape. After checking to make sure there isn't an extra mess to clean, you go back to your warm, relaxing, wonderful shower.

    And then it hits you.

    At first, you wonder if something got stuck in your drain pipes and recently died. You look around, sniffing like hound dog that knows something is wrong, but you're not entirely sure where to look. Then your brain makes the connection and you realize that it was YOUR fart, coming back with a vengeance. The kind of smell that would get you arrested for assault in most states. The kind of smell that would call for small countries to invoke the Geneva Convention.

    BUT, the shower is so nice and warm and relaxing, that you just try to deal with it. You figure you can tough it out while the smell dissipates. You then realize that this smell is going nowhere anytime soon, and that evacuation plans may need to be implemented. But you try to fool yourself into finding a way to NOT leave the shower, because it's warm, and inviting and amazing. And smelly. So you try to open the curtains enough on both sides to let some fresh air in, but in a way that not TOO much water gets on the floor. You ever have that happen to you?

    ...

    ...

    I have never had that happen to me. Nope. :flute:

    I can honestly say that I have never had this happen to me. But that is an incredibly well written tale of woe.

    My farts smell like cupcakes and dreams, so I cannot relate to this woeful tale.

    See, I laughed at this but then I was also immediately worried for the doggo. I've seen some people need stitches from rc helicopters- those things can get fairly dangerous and most people keep a wide birth at rc events when they do heli displays. I'm hoping that one isn't sketchy to use near a doggo, but I'm still filled with anxiety.
