This was just a warning. Cease and desist. Next time I won't miss.

You were supposed to kill him! No screw-ups you said! "I'm reliable," you said! I'm stopping payment on the check.

You use checks? Don't worry about paper trails? :Q

It probably says "assassination" in the memo field.
 
So you're going up 55 right, and there's this really big carpool lane once you reach 5...

That's where another ATOT'er picked up a cat!

It happened a little farther north than the 5. I just looked at the map, and the overpass that whatever it was likely came from was La Veta.

Hang on I'm gonna see if I can upload the pics I took with my phone...
 
You know that spam email you receive that says a friend of yours hired a hitman to kill you, but the assassin is nice and will not do the hit if you pay him $1 million? Well you obviously ignored that email, and this was just the beginning.

Well it is the John Wayne airport. Guns and bullets are to be expected, as well as horses, covered wagons, and saloons.

It's in Irvine CA, I think you're more likely to suffer a drive by pho-ing than to be shot by a cowboy.

sounds yummy

Technically, it's in Santa Ana.

Either or it's not even bad over there. If you said that about LAX then yea but not John Wayne.

0/10 on the pictures. ASCII art would have been better.

Yeah, I know. I have an AT&T Tilt, and the camera on there actually runs this type of auto-focus that samples a series of frames thru the entire depth of field and then processes them with an algorithm that selects for highest contrast. As a result, the final images take like 3 to 5 full seconds to fully expose every frame of all the focal distances it samples.

It works great in normal light, but sucks ass in darker conditions.
 
Back window is tempered glass. It will pop like that pretty easily. A pellet or BB gun will do it easily. If they are poorly made, they can pop like that all by themselves at the point of a flaw.

When I read the title I was instantly hoping that this was going to be a NuclearNed thread.

Yeah, it wasn't really that funny of a circumstance, so I couldn't really develop it in to a NuclearThred.

Nah we were just riffing back and forth different verses from "Rapper's Delight" by the Sugar Hill Gang.

/I said a hip, hop, a hippy to the hippty-hip-hop, ya don't stop rockin'...

Haha! I told ya playa. NOBODY likes rap!
