The wings or the beer?

[Irving]

Here is the situation: You are walking home from purchasing delicious hot wings and a 12 pack of beer. Not your favorite beer, something affordable, but not Miller Light or anything like that. You also bought some other stuff at the liquor store, enough that you need to carry the wings in one hand, to keep them level, and the liquor loot in the other. You know that if you need to draw your weapon on the way home, you'll have to drop something.

So which is it going to be; carry the beer in your strong hand, or the wings in your strong hand? Only you can decide.

[Sharpienads]

I carry the beer in my left hand so I can still draw if necessary. I would sarifice the wings. No question about it.

[mcantar18c]

The wings go in the strong hand. They're easier to throw at an attacker and then your strong hand will be free immediately and besides, dropping the liquor would be alcohol abuse.

[DFBrews]

remove enough beer to put the wings in the 12 pack carry weak side the rest is on the strong side

[blackford76]

Drop the wings, the beer will get all shook up, and I imagine that after having to be in a "shoot" situation will require a couple beers afterwards.

[Irving]

Well, one thing I didn't think about, was that by the time I got home, the beer holding hand was actually numb from the weight of the beer. I don't know if it was how I was holding it, but I've been experiencing this problem lately while lugging around heavy things just with my fingers.

[funkfool]

Save the beer at all costs.
What...no poll?
I'm left unsatisfied...again. Sturtle?Irving? Or are you a donkey poser?

[Irving]

remove enough beer to put the wings in the 12 pack carry weak side the rest is on the strong side

Admirable McGuiver idea, but by the time I rigged that up, I could have been halfway home. All the way if I jogged.

I thought about a poll, but I wasn't feeling witty enough to make the appropriate selections.

[funkfool]

Crap. I don't have my "donkey poser" avatar to back up my statement. Therefore, my point, invalid as it is, is without merit.
;-P

[funkfool]

I gotta ask: Are you folks as insane as I?
Seems so.










Wait... less beer=ABS(π÷\√(7/8))

WHAT WAS I THINKING?!?

Practice my dear watson.


Again why the beer wing combo must be on the weak hand so that the strong side is not numbed by the effects of that pesky gravity and junk.

the answer is always 7 and it is much funner with the voices in my head contradicting each other getting in pissing matches about the square root of green...Stuff like that.

[funkfool]

gravity and junk.

Great band name.[ROFL2]

Let my voices make some calls and it is copyrighted...

Sell it cheap though a snack pack and a spork from a 7 11 in tulsa

[funkfool]

The square root of green....
ALWAYS=…SEVEN.
or ~7ISH

[DFBrews]

ALWAYS=…SEVEN.
or ~7ISH

~7ish is the reason i do not have a day shift close enough for me but the employer thought other wise.

[sniper7]

heck thats an easy one, drop everything, save my ass, grab some cash from the dudes wallet to cover everything plus my time.

because by the time things get settled down, I am going to be starving, my wings will be cold, my beer will be warm (depends on outside temp), and there will probably be blood on everything.

[mcantar18c]

I have a strong craving for wings now.
Damn you Irving.

[Fromk]

I love me some wings. I'd probably get shot trying to decide if it came to that.

[Graves]

I have a strong craving for wings now.
Damn you Irving.

Ah, now who srerves wings at this hour?


Serious question; not in the mood to fire up the oven.

[CMP_5.56]

With me the wings would be for someone else, because I'm not a fan of wings, so it would be an easy choice. Drop the wings, then drop the bad guy.

I've been wondering since I posted that. BW3 closed at 2 I think. I'm sure Wal Mart has something, but with me its either real wings or nothing.
Google gave me nothing. I'm at a loss.

There's an easy solution.

Take the big Bond Arms .45ACP derringer outta the safe and take that with you. Take the gun out before you leave the wing store, having already purchased the beer.

Balance the wings on the side of the derringer (you're holding the gun on it's side...sort of using it as a carry tray for the wings...may even help to hold the gun "gangsta" style rather than in a palms-up style).

If someone stops you and demands your items, pretend to be handing your wings to the perpetrator. But surprise him with a trigger pull. No worries about a malfunction since there are no moving parts and, since it's a .45, most living things within a 50' radius will have expired at the firing of the shot anyway...including the bad guy. But, just in case you're accosted a second time prior to arriving safely at home, you have a second shot ready to go.

[Byte Stryke]

Large Bag... Beer on Bottom Wings on top, carried on weak/off side

[Colorado Osprey]

I'm picturing having to walk home after picking up wings and beer.
I'm not sure but the 24 mile hike out in the country and the beer and wings would be gone long before I got home.
More likely I would be calling for a ride on the cell because my truck is broke down if I'm walking.
The bigger question is do I tow the truck home or have it towed in for repairs.
If I'm getting the truck towed for repairs, I need to make sure I get all the guns out of the truck before it goes to the repair shop.

Using my CCW on my walk home... unlikely... well maybe if there was a snake or a rabid animal.

[Graves]

The rest of us normal folk live close to cool shít, don't go tryin' to sound cool because you're backwood. [Coffee]

Hey, I resemble that remark!

you referring to the cool shiite that you have to draw down on to save your life?[UZI]
or stuff like wings (I'd rather BBQ myself) & beer (yeah, we don't have that in the country) [Beer][ROFL1][Coffee]

[68Charger]

The bigger question is do I tow the truck home or leave it on the side of the road for later.
If I'm leaving it on the side of the road for later, I need to make sure I get all the guns out of the truck before some low-life steals them out of the truck.

Using my CCW on my walk home... unlikely... well maybe if there was a snake or a rabid animal.

Fixed for ya... The only recommendation I can make for an auto repair shop is because I know the owner.

[newracer]

The wings would probably survive the fall, the beer would likely not. However I like my wings hot and fresh so I would eat them before going home.

[SouthPaw]

Me, being a lefty (hence my board name), Would have the heavier item in my right hand (beer) and the precious/lighter cargo (wings) in my left.

Assuming the beer is cheap stuff it would be carried below your waist to help relax your arm.

The wings would be carried above waist line to keep them level and so you can smell them until you get home.

Scenario: Walking down the street after leaving the liquor store you begin to cross the street towards an alley on your left. As you begin to pass the alley you look down the alley to see a knife weilding bad guy running towards you [Help]!!! You must think quick because he is moving towards you at a very fast rate of speed. With the beer in your right hand you would chuck the 12 pack at his head! Assuming the BG has half a brain he would either duck or it would be in your favor if he took it straight to the melon! Well since he is a hardened criminal and this is not his first rodeo he dodges the beer [Mad]. At this time he is somewhat distracted and now is your time to strike![M2]

This next part is where it gets complicated [Luck]. You now have about 3-5 seconds before certain death is upon you. With the wings in your left hand you toss them straight up in the air. While the 18 delicious Mango Habanero wings from BWW[Lick] are in the air ,you draw your "Dirty Harry", take the shot [AR15], stop the threat, reholster, and catch the wings before they hit the ground [Wow2] Since the beer would be in cans (my prefence when I am going cheap), you can now go scavenge up the beer. Hopefully the box didn't break but even if it did the beers would still be intact.

Now its time to [Phone] the [PoPo]

go home and [Pepsi][PizzaHut]

[Ah Pook]

Get a backpack.

I'll take steak over small amounts of chicken bathed in sauce any day. I only need to eat one steak, instead of 50 wings. If not liking wings means I lose my man card, then hand me a dress, call me Corina and point me to the red meat!!!!

[rockhound]

you could drive????

You also bought some other stuff at the liquor store, enough that you need to carry the wings in one hand, to keep them level, and the liquor loot in the other. You know that if you need to draw your weapon on the way home, you'll have to drop something.

So which is it going to be; carry the beer in your strong hand, or the wings in your strong hand? Only you can decide.

If you trained and trained some more, the hand you carry your delicious goods in is irrelevant. If you trained properly, you could chug all 12 beers, eat the wings down to the bone, and use the bones as throwing daggers well before any attacker could make a move. Drawing your firearm shouldn't even really be necessary in this scenario. If you trained adequately, you would know this! [Beer]

[Dr_Fwd]

drop the wings! ... wait... no, drop the beer... no, wings! or beer! or wings.. Damn! Just make two trips!!! first for the beer and second for the wings! ..or vice versa, or not... crap, my head is gonna explode!!![ROFL1]

[AirbornePathogen]

I say sacrifice the beer, especially if it's in cans. Then it has a better chance of surviving contact than the wings.

[Irving]

Get a backpack.


Too small.



you could drive????


Too close.



Fortunately, I made it home okay.

what about a bicycle and you could have a bayonet on a large joust. a nice basket on the bike and you are GTG! (charlie sheen) "WINNING"!!!!

[ChunkyMonkey]

My libtard friend would have dropped both and pointed at the No Weapons sign posted on the alley way and his coexist bumper sticker.

I, on the other hand, would have ordered wingstreet delivered to my man cave.

I like your enthusiasm. I gave my bike away on here though. Plus, I'd rather fight with both hands full while standing, than fight with both hands full, from a bike. heh.

I work at a pizza place, and can usually get free wings after my shift, but I wanted good wings. ;)

yeah but if you took out a bad guy on a bicycle whole jousting, I am pretty sure Marlin would change your title to: "EPIC"[Tooth]

[Irving]

Maybe if I saw it coming early, I could get some good speed, bunny hop, crank the bike sideways, and bury the sproket in the dude's thigh. I hear the chain leaves a wicked Indian burn.

that would be a great video!

then lock the front brake, and burn out on his face!

[Bailey Guns]

Or maybe a real man would send his wife/girlfriend to get the beer/wings for him? Or tell her she needed to pick these things on the way home from work.
