Evil semi-fullyautomatic knife of terror

Likely is a pocket watch fob knife. Wonder if the hook shaped spoon is an ear wax cleaner.

I can’t imagine the cork screw works very well at unbottling wines.

Whether or not it was meant to be a watch fob it is one now.

I got a similar reaction to the little P-38 military can opener on my keychain. A woman saw that and said, "That would make a good weapon.

It IS a weapon, if you are trying to attack a can of beans. Most women have longer fingernails than that.
 
There should be a law against sheeple... If you see a guy with can opener in public you have two obvious options; run or hyperventilate into your safe space!

I've seen some big burly types that would have been game for a fight , literally turn white and pass out at the mere sight of a small hypodermic needle used for common vaccinations or blood samples . Logic has nothing to do with phobias .

Honestly, we need to be aware that we are surrounded by these twatwaffles and understand that, unfortunately most of our overprotective society is on their side.

I'll vouch for that. My brother in law passed out at the sight of a needle when he had to get his blood drawn for the marriage lmao

Nope, but a 'knife' the size of a quarter... come on.



I wish I knew more about the knife. I just thought it was a cool little knife and bought it for 50 cents. The smaller blade has a stamp that looks like it may be ELDON. Here is another pic of it. My feeling is it was meant to be a pocket watch fob. Maybe someone will know what it is.

-Oh, well there you have it,
No wonder she was so scared...
Just imagining the potential
torture that that 'giant' hook
could inflict is horrible...
and whoa, it's armed with a cork screw, too !?
Yikes :eek:
 
I pulled out my Emerson Mini CQC 15 at the cash register in Walmart the other day to cut the tag off of a "pair of cheap sunglasses". I didn't wave it out of my pocket for fear of starting a stampede of yoga panted cows. But even then I could hear the people behind me sucking air. Guess it is a good thing I wasn't packing a Super 7. LOL! My wife is so used to it she didn't even notice.

Took my father to Costco for a hearing test appointment. We get there and the technician is a young woman probably early 20s. I go in the sound proof booth with them and wait while she does the testing. About 30 minutes in I'm getting bored. I notice a box of Kleenex next to me (not what you're thinking) and grab one. I pull out my knife that I got at a yard sale over the weekend and start to clean it. All of a sudden the girl gasps and says "OMG put that away I don't feel safe!" (I s*** you not). I think she's joking so I start laughing. She starts hyperventilating and I thought she was about to cry. So I said calm down I'll put it away. She asks me to please leave so I shrug and go look at big screen tv's while the land-whale finishes the tests. Here is the offending knife:

This kind of reaction seems more a bit of melodrama and manipulation motivated by the new "harmlessness " ethos . If someone is truly afraid of someone with a weapon , I believe they would not put on such a show . They would freeze up , cowering or maybe run screaming . Not be confrontational and drive you away . That's dominance behavior .
Of course , if you really scare the wrong person , they may just attack you physically .

We surely do live in weird times ! o_O
 
I would file a complain to corporate stating the exact situation.

I would have not put my knife away and exercise you're rights. You were cleaning a mini pocket knife with a tissue.

Liberal sheeple like that want to get criminal convictions on you. To me it's the opposite what she did is criminal. Because she has some mental instability or maybe how she was raised. She starts crying, cops gets called and you're in handcuffs for wiping a common pocket knife in a business with a tissues.

Needles is kind of a different phobia I would say. I am scared of needles myself much worse than a cut from a knife. I know my fear of needles started as a child probably as an infant. I imagine many people’s fear of needles begins as a baby. The anticipation of getting poked by the needle instantly turns me back to an infant.

But what I’m saying is fear of needles is learned probably from a very young age. Thus it is not as irrational a fear imho. Also its not the needle itself. Just sitting on the table its not scarey. Only when it is about to stick me.

Now the irrational part of the fear is I can’t stand to watch other people fetting poked. In movies I tend to look away at a scene of a closeup of someone getting stuck with a needle. This is despite the fact that watching any other “realistic” violence on doesn’t bother me at all. Watching someone get burned alive or their head ripped off doesn’t bother me.
 
I just have better things to do than complain about her to corporate. My father was getting his hearing aids fitted so it was easier just to walk away and get it done than to argue with some SJW adult infant acting hysterical for attention. In the end we took our business elsewhere. Better to just make a point with your wallet. I really just see it as a funny event and I'm not upset about it.

Some people have uncontrollable negative reactions to witnessing or being subjected even very minor medical procedures . Yes , I'm sure it has to do with early conditioning .

Ironically enough , I suffer from "white coat syndrome " . When I go for a doctor / hospital visit where I have to be the hapless patient , my BP goes thru the roof . :oops: That's the only outward sign and I'm not usually consciously frightened . Nothing very rational about these fears .

Yeah I’m sure if we worked on it we could probably condition it out of ourselves too.

I have run out of dentists offices before because they wanted to argue with me about leaving the novocaine gel on my gum for an extra minute or two before they stick my gums with the needles.

When I went to get my wisdom teeth pulled earlier this year I told the oral surgeon during the consultation please just one request, give me some time with the novocaine on my gums; the needles are the hardest part for me. She promises me she would. I know the gel only helps so much but I like to give it a second to take effect.

So the day comes and she puts that swab of novocaine gel on my gums. I’m thinking ok time to steel myself and get ready for the needles. Literally 8 seconds pass and she goes to pull the swab out of my mouth. (8 seconds is generous it was probably more like 5.)

I freaked out and was like “what the hell are you doing!?” and now my attempt to calm myself was botched and my heart was jumping out of my chest. She’s like “it should be plenty of time” in a real bitchy tone too. This was after I reminded her about wanting time with it before I sat down and spending like half the consultation begging her to just honour that one request.

So I was like “I’m paying you 2000$ to pull these teeth and you can’t wait 2 minutes?” Screw that I’m out of here. So I went to the Russian dentist my Russian friend recommended and he was like, “screw it, I’ll just give you a valium before I do anything.”

The only unpleasantness I remember is the pain of the needle being shot through the roof of my mouth. And he left the gel swab on for as long as I wanted to boot.

Friggin’ needles man.
 
When I had a shot in my mouth years ago for cavities I had a seizure and they almost called 911 then I had to reschedule and get all my cavities filled with no shots or anything. Just drill. I had all my wisdom teeth taken out too back in December. Had to be put to sleep for that.
