The Throwdown Thread

[Czechnology]

I'm weeening! I'm weeening!

You're a bit old to still be drinking milk...

Do not confuse this thread with the chat thread. If there are insults to be made in this thread they will be bold and inventive.

You mean like "I'm going to make your cry before this is over"? I'll try and fill your enormous satirical shoes.

[GanaEMT]

Sheesh, is this what happens around here while I'm asleep?

I was wondering why I was having a nightmare about kerlix, Texas and crying sheep.

[SharkChild]

With my limited knowledge I am in bitches. I might lose but I bring my fucking war.

Doc Simon, I believe I kicked your ass for now... And take a look at my post-count...start respecting please...

[Buddha]

Jim Wins.

[Erik]

Holy cow! I was going to throw in my backpack first aid kit, but now I know it's nothing but a pathetic offering compared to what I'm going to see in this thread! Assuming Doc or Gunny actually post something.

-Erik

[Ringo]

Throwdown this, throwdown that...Jim Wins.

-R.

[Czechnology]

Well. Now at least there's no pressure.

[GanaEMT]

Throwdown this, throwdown that...Jim Wins.

-R.

Are you kidding?

This shit hasn't even gotten started.

I'm with you on this one Erik. Mine is pretty small compared to most of these, but at least it'll give the field some depth because we're not all certified EMTs, Docs, etc.

I have my lil' FAK but most of my expertise is in recording your dying words rather than keeping you from kicking the bucket.

"What was that? You want to bequeath ALL of your guns to me? Why that's very kind of you"
"Gurgle...Gasp...Wheeze"
"Uh huh...ammo too....got it"
;D

[JIM]

You're also going to kick the shit out of Tac Medic, that guy's aid bag sucks.

I think Tac Medic has just become Tachy Medic...

Seriously you guys...post some of your kits and better make it soon to, or I'll be forced to own you all...
And you don't wanna be owned by a Dutchie, that I can assure you

Just kidding doc, please don't vapourise me..

[Gunny]

Jim wins? Bwhahahahaha this shit hasn't even started yet.

I'm posting my first entry tonight. Prepare to be pwnt bitches.

[Czechnology]

Whatever Gunny, you don't have a cool yellow remote controlled helicopter like JIM does.

[Citizen Simon]

Jim wins? Hah... You're lucky the MWR doesn't take my flash drive or I would pwn this thread right now. I'll use a personal computer tomorrow and then there will be ruage, complete and unsavory destruction.

Who's a bigger pussy, someone that comes to a fight with their A game and gets their shit ruined, or someone who avoids a fight all together and gets their shit ruined. Fuck you, read the first two rules of the first aid throwdown.

[Czechnology]

Sniff, the mean MWR lamers are keeping me from showing you all how cool I really am. Someday I'll take a picture of a Corpsman's bag and pretend its mine so you all will like me.

Don't be so hard on yourself Doc, jeez.

[Jamie]

Read the first two rules of the first aid throwdown.

1st RULE: You do not talk about first aid throwdown.

2nd RULE: You DO NOT talk about first aid throwdown.

oh...no...the first two rules involve pics...I can do that too...

I'll be bringing my A-game to the thread this weekend, and if your FAKs block out the sun, then I will heal the afflicted in the shade!!!

nfa

PS - does rule #4 mean, "yes, show off multiple bags, it's the totality of your FAKs that will win the day" or "no multiple bags bitch, just give us your best FAK"...

Rule four- Multiple bags in the fight.

[The Highwayman]

PS - does rule #4 mean, "yes, show off multiple bags, it's the totality of your FAKs that will win the day" or "no multiple bags bitch, just give us your best FAK"...

I believe what Doc was alluding to was the former, rather than the latter


Just as an aside, any thoughts on having two different categories involved? Sort of like a "Pro-Am" in golf, etc? You know, we all post on here, then a victor is judged from those who are professionals (and those who pretend to be), and then a victor from the rest of us mortals?
Just a thought...
Oh yeah, don't think ya'll are gettin off easy... My submission is in the offing and shall be here soon!
M-M-M-W-W-A-A-A-HA-HA-HA-HA-HAAAAAAAA

[Gunny]

That's right bitches, it's Gunny's turn to throw down and kick all of yall's asses.

Doc Simon always says, "You need 2 things in your aid kit...Kerlix and Tape!"

Well, if I take Doc at his word, then I have devised the absolute perfect IFAK.

With this kit I can take care of literally hundreds of casualties. My IFAK weighs in at exactly 4 pounds and is self contained.

And now...for the money shots.




















Ya'll ready for this?






















Gotta represent






















Here she is.

But wait....what's inside???




Kerlix...hundreds of 'em.

But wait...what else is there?


A tactical tape roll. Enough tape to tape up a whole platoon and still have some to hang your x-mas ornaments.


Note the patented tactical attachment method.

Now, an IFAK of this nature costs, hundreds, even thousands of pesos to build and maintain. In light of this I've decided to pack some heavy weaponry to defend my IFAK.




Lastly, I've hiked this pack through at least one bathroom and hallway and it carries like a dream. Behold:





That's it everyone, bow down and gimme my damn medal.

[Czechnology]

[ninja-elbow]

I believe you only have Krelix on top of a pile of butterscotch candies and porn mags in that bag.

[Czechnology]

The Kerlix Veneer must be pulled back!

[Jamie]

needs...more tape...more kerlix

[HurricaneDad]

That's right bitches, it's Gunny's turn to throw down and kick all of yall's asses.

<cut pix to reduce long-scroll>

That's it everyone, bow down and gimme my damn medal.

Holy crap! A frikkin SEA BAG full of Kerlix! And a full CASE of tape!

I haven't laughed so hard in months. Right on, Gunny, right on!

(Depending on my weekend, I might break down and post my aid bags. If I feel brave enough.)
