Because they could use a trampoline to fling them back and we’d end up the the biggest game of tennis
They said why not, they didn’t ask for you to give extra reasons why we should
And most important of all - and most tragically ironic - our Nation could have afforded, and can afford now, the steps necessary to close the trampoline gap. But our task now is not to fix the blame for the past, but to fix a course for the future.
-JFK
That’s why we have to start flinging them now. Before the Zs close the trampoline gap. Sure they’d fling a few warships back now. I’m not saying we wouldn’t get our hair mussed, but it would be minimal casualties. 30 or 40 million tops. Depending on the breaks.
Have you ever seen a commie drink a glass of water?
No, general, I don’t believe I have.
I’d watch that.
I’m confused, what’s the reason we aren’t doing this yet?
We don’t have enough NCD on the Senate committee on defense appropriations yet.
yet
Yeeeetttttt
Physics, and money.
Damn, that’s a high quality simulation. Those tasteful fractures, wonderful.
Is it? I feel like the ship would basically pancake in on itself at first impact.
Yea the first impact is not pancakey enough. And the second impact is too stone crumbly.
Also the chain is uncanny.
But this is still amazing and way better than anything I could do in 100 lifetimes.
They likely took some liberties to have the back half crush the second building. That chain really does stand out though
Dunno, I haven’t catapulted a warship recently but it feels right?
I haven’t catapulted a warship recently
Slacker.
I can’t wait for my parents to ask me if this facebook “attack footage” is real
Ze French had ze right idéa!
RUN AWAY!
Are we stupid?
Yes
Are we crazy?
Also yes
I’m pretty sure crazy is less predictable that stupid, fwiw.
Most rational argument of dictators
I believe it was James Brown who said, “I don’t know karate, but I know ker-azy.”
Go play red alert 3 and you can do exactly that. Even better, you can throw the enemies warships at them!
Oh my god that was so cool. The magnet satellite, eight?
Sorry but I don’t play anything past Red Alert 2
Counterpoint. SPaAaCh!
This is the comically stupid shit I come here for
The Holdo Maneuver?
Argh, I’d blocked off that memory. Is it a pout and a sigh? No! ;)
Cause we’re not at Warhammer 40k levels of insanity… yet.
Angry Marines energy
You mean strategy?
“THIS! IS WHAT HAPPENS… WHEN YOU USE A WARSHIP AS A BASKETBALL!”
Constitution weighs 1,900 tons at present day. That’s 13.2 more ugga duggas than I calculated. It’s frasible. We’ll need all the Honest John missiles and 3,000 kg of homegrown tomatoes.
The Constitution isnt decommissioned you dumb yuppie. Chuck the USS Dolphin at em.
USS Constitution is a warship and still listed on the Naval Register. Fling her and the math gets much easier, nerds, get to crunching. She weighs around, what, 400 tons fully ballasted? Imagine the impact of the mainmast, smashing through the roof of that "civilian administration* building we memed about in March 2022, the one with anti aircraft on the roof. ANTI-AIRCRAFT. They’re fooked!
This is hella cool.
Ship propellers are outrageously big and heavy.
Just get them spinning and drop them in like beyblades!
Speedily, in our days
Because they could steal our tech? I’d say fill them with explosives
New Jersey landing on Zs,in all her glory, is not enough? She needs to be filled with explosives? I’m in awe. The mental image is hard to conjure.
