Joergs featured in Cracked

Postby MilknCheese » Fri Aug 03, 2012 1:45 pm

Popular internet humour site 'Cracked' has featured Joergs and one of his crazy(er) inventions!

http://www.cracked.com/article_19605_the-5-most-terrifying-sci-fi-upgrades-to-deadly-weapons.html

Sprave is a slingshot enthusiast who specializes in building slingshot guns that shoot things in ways they aren't meant to be shot, which according to our calculations puts him approximately 1/3 of a minor tragedy away from taking up supervillainy (we're assuming villainy, because there's no way a hero would design a slingshot that can launch machetes in an arc of bladey horror that is heading for your face right now).



Neat!

Wow, I wondered where all these new viewers come from.

It is quite telling that my most useless invention is the most successful, by a great deal...

Huh. I figured they'd at least have contacted you beforehand to give you a heads up out of politeness. I must still have a 20th Century mindset.

I am easy, really. This is the web, after all. I use it to my advantages, so I must accept the downsides. Quid pro quo.

I saw this when I was browsing Cracked. I was amused. JoergS, how does it feel to be famous?

I am not "supermarket" famous, if you know what I mean. Which is a good thing.
