I’ve seen this movie but cannot remember what it’s from. Is it Spartacus?
Dickus longus
Maybe I’m being wooshed, but just in case, it’s from Life of Brian !
Ah that’s it. No I’d just forgotten and couldn’t remember. I love life of Brian.
Eheheheheeee
Does yeeted mean shot at now? Does it not mean “tossed with reckless abandon” anymore?
I assumed the punishment for piracy was no longer “walking the plank” but now “riding the shell”.
If you get hit by any projectile fired from that phalanx, your body will definitely be “tossed with reckless abandon.”
In various directions at once, no less
Tossed with reckless abandonment sounds like a fun time.
The implication being that they’re being yeeted into the afterlife.
When I need a 250 year legacy of ass-fucking, I go to the Navy. Often.
Never, not once, have I ever been disappointed with the performance of a navy man. My tax paying dollars pay for that hard cock. And I won’t give it up for anything.
I’ve been with plenty of soldiers and jar, heads and airmen too, but nothing compares to getting your ass destroyed by a fucking sailor. Mmmmm mmm mmm. They’re just the fucking best at it.
Although, I will say, Marines are a close second
Noted
Lmao
Hey, how you doin’? ;)
THE PENIS IS BAD, THE GUN IS GOOD!
That’s a phalanx gun. Unless the pirate are flying a plane, they’re not getting shot by it.
It can shoot boats.
TIL thx
god you really can’t feel the scale of these things from just the picture. that is insane. also BA NANA
As of block 1B, they can absolutely blast surface craft.
The current Phalanx variant (Block 1B) adds the ability to counter asymmetric warfare threats through the addition of an integrated, stabilized, Electro Optic sensor. These improvements give Phalanx the added ability to counter small high speed surface craft, aircraft, helicopters and unmanned aerial systems (UAS).
Not with that attitude.
Damn, undress that CWIS, I gotta see her curves. Such a sexy platform.
I hope they’ve properly licensed that character design.
As someone to old to have grown up with the term yeet, the missuse of it here annoys me.
The bullets get yeeted sure. But they aren’t catapulting pirates off their ship with a gun on their ship.
they aren’t catapulting pirates off their ship with a gun on their ship.
You misunderstand, they are yeeting the boat and everyone aboard from this plane of existence.
Not with that attittude they aren’t
Strangely hard to find volunteers willing to serve papers to a CIWS - they tend to have an extremely persuasive way of responding to bad news.
It’s AI slop
Citation needed, there are many pics of this one and no real reason to think it’s AI. Also the fact that the pic is at least 3 years old from when AI slop wasn’t nearly as convincing.
- The end of the barrels
- eyelets don’t seem to be connected to anything
- the rails appear above the minion for some reason
- the rails end oddly when it transitions to the minion
Huh, on closer inspection I think it was terribly AI “enhanced” at some point. https://www.reddit.com/r/Military/comments/jdadmm/minion_ciws_lmao/?show=original There’s versions of it from 5+ years ago as well as ones where the barrel looks fine https://www.reddit.com/media?url=https%3A%2F%2Fpreview.redd.it%2Fo0qudv7ofnq41.jpg%3Fauto%3Dwebp%26s%3Daa0ac0db241bcbe67a47b29fb180805f5ae58d9d
There’s also another angle also from around 4+ years ago https://www.therpf.com/forums/threads/phalanx-close-in-weapon-system-1-9-scale.307034/page-3 that shows a lot of the same features matching
Thank you for doing the work I didnt have to. Id seen this image years ago before genai was a thing.
i hate this era of people calling every photo taken with mediocre phone cameras and “enhanced” via simple filters by most mid phones in the last decade ai slop
edit: tbf this was edited/“enhanced” after that, but still
Kudos on that work :)
I can hear the maniacal laughing.
