Not even remotely funny. As someone who's both assembled complex model kits and suffered injuries at the hands of my own tools, I find this "joke" to be in extremely poor taste.

Really? As someone who's also assembled complex model kits and suffered injuries at the hands of my own tools I found it a complete stitch.

Myself and Mrs Flashman found this highly amusing. Nice find Aduro

I always loved this one personally, as it reminded me of myself far too many times.

Dear sweet baby jesus someone tell me that Ag2 had some serious sarcasm in there that I totally missed. Hell, I fwd'd the link to my gf who thoguht it was funny.

Six stitches in my left hand and I got H1N1 from the waiting room of the ER. The picture is up on Dakka in a couple of threads. This was a year ago and my hand still gets weird electric tingles through it from the nerve damage. As I read this, I laughed so hard I had about 6 people turn in their chairs to look at me.

Get over it.

It's a joke - there's no way anyone could rectally encompass a boss-pole that deep.

A question of context - was the Huey Hog a particularly notorious model to assemble?

I lol'd

I Rofl'd

i loled. again.

This picture is funnier than anything that even Yahoo Serious has done.

By the great modelling god Tamigawa I hope not!

No fear, I think that's the Revell 1/48 kit the joke is based on. The parts layout and sprue color seem to match a review I found: http://www.scale-rotors.com/news-reviews/revell/bell-uh-1-huey-hog-04476

Can't breathe too damn funny.
I was not expecting this. I was expecting a serious thread here XD

Ah, brings back memories of my own youth.

Thou hast no soul, begone humourless ghoul!

Possibly have a 'warning gory' label or something but it is funny.

Thank goodness for sprue clippers!

I picked up my kit for a quid as it is missing the lower nose glazing parts. This means making moulds then crash moulding some clear acetate,

Doubt if I will lose that much blood if any, but the burns department at A&E and the Fire Brigade could get a call!

The worst I have done is to slice into a finger with a new scalpel blade, pinging off the front canopy, potentially into the jaws of the carpet monster.
Frantically scrabbling around on all fours looking for the missing piece with blood dripping profusely. Messy business but the part was eventually found but it was a while before I got the bleeding to stop.

Definitely funny stuff.

I've seen this posted on here at least five times before. The humour kind of fades after that long.

First time I've seen it.
Have to be honest and say I don't find it funny at all
not even a smile.

the best bit is probably the reference, intended or accidental, to The Pieta in the last photo.

I kinda like "dulz".

I lol'd. I don't get why people are taking this so seriously but hey, this is the internet; someone always gets offended by something.

Its almost like they think that if they raff, they ruse. Bizarre.

Haven't seen this one in a good long while - thanks for reposting it.

Here you go people. Even though its not directly related I saved this from the C.S Goto Wiki edit a few years ago.

http://dailypeon.wikia.com/wiki/CS_Goto

Lol, thanks for posting.

Okay this is ridiculous, people need to let the CS Goto thing die. It's so bad people are just posting random links trashing him in threads that have nothing to do with CS Goto.

Also I think the OP was in very poor taste. As a laundry and beard aficionado I can tell you getting blood out of your clothes and/or beard is no laughing matter. Y'all should be ashamed.

Well I could put up the jokes of 40k.

Anyway Model Assembly my first model I littearlly glued to the floor and I had to remove it with a hammer.

I got a good laugh out of that one. I was expecting a rant on how GW assembly instructions were impossible to follow - boy was I wrong. First time I've seen it though.
