My wife says this to troll me. It is invariably effective."Heighth," as in, "I'm just under six feet in heighth."

Hotter'n two rats fuckin in a wool sock.Heat.
It's hot today.
I had a spider hanging from my beard. How did it get there? Was it in my mouth when I was sleeping? Are the old wives tales true? Should I shave off the beard? If I did, would I find more spiders underneath? Should I just leave everything alone? Should I set myself on fire? Help.

I remember one episode where a guy was like "I'll just take this lawnmower blade and grind it into the blade I need." He was disqualified for not FORGING anything. And rightly so IMO.People who comment on a reality competition show with ideas that are against the goddamn core concept of the show.
For those who aren't aware, on History Channel there's a show called Forged in Fire. The core concept of the show is "We have 4 bladesmiths compete at making blades to a given set of parameters, with certain features or techniques required, through 2 series of eliminations. The two finalists then go to their home forges to recreate a historical weapon within 45 hours over 5 days. Then we test their weapons and declare a winner, who wins $10,000."
Suggested every two or three fucking days: "Why don't they have people who don't know how to forge compete?" BECAUSE THE POINT IS TO SEE WHAT SKILLED SMITHS CAN DO, AND BECAUSE IF YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU'RE DOING, YOU HAVE A GOOD CHANCE OF HURTING YOURSELF OR SOMEONE ELSE. (As it is, at least 2 competitors over 4 seasons have had to been taken away in an ambulance, and at least a dozen have suffered minor injuries / heat exhaustion.)
Also suggested: "Instead of blades, why don't they make something else?" BECAUSE BLADES ARE COOL AND WROUGHT IRON DOOR HINGES AREN'T.
"They should do Katanas!" THAT WAS THE VERY FIRST EPISODE.
At least the internet has finally woken up to how mediocre in general the katana was. Which I think is due to Highlander and the way the characters on that show acted like it was the god of swords.People who comment on a reality competition show with ideas that are against the goddamn core concept of the show.

Prior to Highlander was the Ninja craze and prior to that was the huge TV mini series based on James Clavals Shogun.At least the internet has finally woken up to how mediocre in general the katana was.

Yeah. The judges outright said "During this round, you will be forging a blade..." and dumbfuck said "Well, I'll just do stock removal to save time. AND HE LEFT THE GODDAMN HOLE IT IN AT A SPOT IT WAS SURE TO CAUSE THE BLADE TO BREAK.I remember one episode where a guy was like "I'll just take this lawnmower blade and grind it into the blade I need."

There's a guy licking the metal as part of his pre-forging process....

He was everywhere.Sho Kosugi was a god among men when I was in junior high.
He never really made many movies. Not like the 115 or so made by Godfrey Ho.He was everywhere.

Ah, but he starred opposite Lee Van Cleef in The Master, a show I tried very hard not to miss as a kid.He never really made many movies. Not like the 115 or so made by Godfrey Ho.
