That is an interesting force-on-force - as the gas burners you’d need to plan to knock out (or ideally capture) a critical mass of the enemy force early on, probably using your capability to continue to manoeuvre during an extended battle (and force the enemy to keep moving)… and I imagine you’d specialise in fighting at night too

Wise Italian Grandfather
Why Italian Fathers and Grandfathers pass their handguns down through the family. An old Italian man is dying. He calls his grandson to his bedside, Guido, I wan’ you lissina me I wan’ you to take-a my chrome plated …38 revolver so you will always remember me."
“But grandpa, I really don’t like guns… How about you leave me your Rolex watch instead?”
"You lissina me, boy. Somma day you gonna be runna da business, you gonna have a beautiful wife, lotsa money, a big-a home and maybe a couple of bambinos. "
"Somma day you gonna come-a home and maybe finda you wife inna bed with another man.
"Whatta you gonna do then? Pointa to you watch and say, ‘times up’ "?

Not so lucky. He wish he never met…
That burning Jetfuel melting steel theory is a fun one, because it’s technically correct. It can burn hot enough to make steel as limp as a noodle though. I remember seeing a video of a sufficiently agitated blacksmith proving this…

Yeah my implied was that I did meet them. Just a few but still dumb enough to lower my IQ by a few points for a few hours.

Google what happens if you try to put out an aluminium fire (burning aircraft fuselage) with water (high-rise building fire fighting sprinkler system)… basically an exothermic reaction + hydrogen gas. it explains a lot.

I’m starting to consider emigration from this conservative/right-wing ****-show, I’ve just about had it with politicians cruising on privileges the last progressive legislations in rhe early 80 managed to ensure for us while telling us that we need austerity . The US keeps spending and is leaving our economy in the dust, so how about we consider that austerity is a failed concept?
We are ■■■■■■, but somehow this isn’t reason enough to really get our ■■■■ together and change something. Ausländer dies, Ausländer das is enough to collect a six-figure parlamentarian salary these days.
The only good thing is that the conservatives probably can’t go into a coalition with rhe ultra-nuts because of reasons, the other parties at least have the decency to refuse them.
Gonna be interesring to have the strongest party in opposition.
Edit: I forgot to mention for non-Europeans, the reason for that question is that 30% of Austrians just voted for an extreme right wing/shoah&climate change denying ■■■■-fest of a party, two weeks after we had an almost millenium-flood with the strongest rainfall ever recorded on the European continent.

Thanks! I appreciate the insight from, well, inside. I am pleased that you are describing pretty much how it looks from over here, so at least that works decently it seems.
I am of course less pleased about the situation itself. I fear we will have the same problem over here soon.
Ok, back to jokes:

I heard a couple of jokes while getting my hair cut today.
- Why don’t witches wear panties? Better grip.
- Why do blondes travel in odd numbers? Because they can’t even!
Thank you! I’ll be here all week. Be sure to tip your wait staff.
