CC Random thread

The primary goal of this site is to provide mature, meaningful discussion about the Vancouver Canucks. However, we all need a break some time so this forum is basically for anything off-topic, off the wall, or to just get something off your chest! This forum is named after poster Creeper, who passed away in July of 2011 and was a long time member of the Canucks message board community.

I met a Sikh holyman walking down the sidewalk one day. He had pink skin and ice blue eyes.
Apparently he is/was a direct descendant of Mohammed himself. :lol: go figure

"Police say gunman among dead in 'worst mass shooting in Swedish history'"
Yup eleven dead (including the shooter).
The previous record was seven. A military guy who went berserk after a night of drinking back in the 1980's.
Time for Sweden to bring stricter gun laws?
Possibly. They are discussing banning semi-automatic rifles.
You are not really supposed to spray the moose with bullets but to take them down with one shot.

This guy had four guns - two shotguns and two semi-automatic hunting rifles (not the AR type though) - all licensed to him, and three of them were found at the scene. The 35-yo perpetrator was in a class for people with autism when in high school, so probably on the spectrum, and has been unemployed for the past ten years. Lived alone with barely any social contacts and very little on line presence. Question is, is this the kind of person who should have four guns?

It is basically our first school shooting, if an adult education centre counts as a school, so I think the suggestion that all schools must be locked during the day is a bit drastic.

There was a guy who got shot at a school dance in 1961, and a high school student gunned down near his locker in the early 2000's. In the latter case he was killed by gang members who had some beef with his older brother. You could argue that neither of those were "school shootings", as they were basically cases of homicide against people that just happened to be on school premises when they were shot.

This is the first time ever someone has gone on a shooting spree at a school (or adult education centre).
There have been other incidents at schools though. A 21-yo guy dressed as Darth Vader killed three or four people with a sword on Halloween in 2015, and some 18-yo guy brought an axe to school in 2022 and killed two teachers. The axe murderer was also autistic. The guy with the sword was racist and specifically targetted immigrants.

The police are still very quiet about the details of this shooting, but there may have been racist motives, as it seems the victims were immigrants taking Swedish classes at the education centre and some witnesses claim to have heard the shooter shout "you don't belong in Europe".

I once heard a wicked insult while living in Queensland Oz...

old mate would swim across a river of snot a mile wide to get to the other side to suck the dick of the last bloke to fuck her

Make sure you read it in an Aussie accent and imagine Rats dreaming of Jessica

Guess it’s a bit like when you’re out riding your bike and get a fly in your mouth; you just spit it out as fast as you can.
