Dart Lore (bloons)
Feb.21.2008
We have Nerf™ guns at work. We shoot each other a lot. We often can be heard yelling and laughing as some unsuspecting sap comes around the corner to the greeting of a perfect, whistling, dart-of-doom-to-the-face headshot.
Things have escalated, as they often tend to do ’round these parts, and a number of our darts have been altered with some very interesting modifications.
One modification in particular involves two long wall pins firmly taped to the tip of the dart, points roughly an inch and half off the former face of the projectile, in what can only be called the perfect recipe for a lawsuit.
The first test flight of the aforementioned dart of destruction was directly at my display. It managed to leave two noticeable holes in the dead center of the screen that wouldn’t be smoothed out for anything.
I got a new display. It’s better than my previous one, and as an aside, a lesson you can all learn is that breaking old things means you will immediately get newer better things to replace them with. No matter what.
Moving on, the -second- flight of this maniacally manufactured missile of madness went straight to the ceiling. I fired it, and in a stroke of brilliance decided to aim directly above my chair where it decided to come to rest. I should note here that we have one floor of space in a two story building. It’s not an easy thing to remove something from the ceiling here.
The dart now resides there, above my seat, waiting at comfortable leisure to fall from above and stab me in the brain. If this is my last post, I hope you all remember me well, and not as the moron who decided to strategically position a sharp, stabby weapon of death directly above his head.
In honor of this idiocy, I’ve posted one of the more entertaining flash games out there, called Bloons, for your enjoyment. I found it fitting, as in the game, you play a monkey that throws darts at things, hoping to win the prize, which in my lucky case is a fresh bag of mental disability.

In my experience, when you break your old things, it means you’ll get beaten and sent to bed with no dinner.
Also, I appreciate the image. And your wit. I’ll miss it after impact.

Aren’t you proud to have a girlfriend who obsessively leaves nonsensical comments on your blog while simultaneously having schizophrenic conversations with herself and can’t remember what she said just moments ago? Lucky man you are…

Haha, yep, I have one. I don’t really advertise it much outside of knitting circles.
How’d you find me? Some fancy link track-backer? Or did you just google your own name?
Your Damoclesian dart has me worried – couldn’t you just move your chair or something?

When I was working at ChipData, I routinely saw people sneaking passed my cube with water guns. I think Nerf darts is a better idea for a technology company.

Brilliant. My brothers, cousins, and I used to have epic Nerf wars. Maybe not as epic as yours because we didn’t alter the darts, but epic none-the-less. I’m glad we’re online friends now. You know the internet is the most reliable medium for communication and friendship. It pretty much seals the deal.
