- levitron, on 10/12/2007, -0/+68Geez, I was expecting those paper ninja stars I used to make back in grade 6!
- thenativeraver, on 10/12/2007, -0/+58I want a raise.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -2/+47"If you are under 18, or are uncapable of making sound decisions"
I'm insulted. Not only is he saying that because I'm under 18, I must be naive and can't make a "sound decision", but he's saying it while writing "incapable" as "uncapable". Plus, he's like 40 and making ninja stars. - TheWestExit, on 10/12/2007, -1/+45I liked to stick pins in the tips so they stick in your victim's puny flesh.
- titlesaysitall, on 10/12/2007, -0/+36Nah, there perfectly safe. I tried it on my friend, he didn't bleed to bad.
- Araya213, on 10/12/2007, -0/+31I look forward to killing you very soon!
- speezer, on 10/12/2007, -0/+25Maybe someone can design a launcher made out of paperclips and rubber bands.
- Lifestory, on 10/12/2007, -1/+25they could at least link it to "how to wrap a T-shirt around your face like a ninja"
- smb3d, on 10/12/2007, -0/+23It seems like you could cut yourself just trying to throw it.
- blablaman, on 10/12/2007, -0/+20I'm sure it will be a hit with the emos.
- m0laria, on 10/12/2007, -1/+20If it were "How to poison the water cooler at work without getting caught" then it would make the front page.
- steve693, on 10/12/2007, -1/+20Umm wow. . .that's 4 exacto knife blades taped together. . .which is. . .really dangerous.
Office supply war items should only inflict pain, not death. - xavi, on 10/12/2007, -2/+18Yep those will definitely kill someone..
- idonthack, on 10/12/2007, -0/+16@archer104
Oh yeah? Well, I can make one without even the bottle. - daedal, on 10/12/2007, -2/+181. He doesn't just tape something together, he makes a ninja star and the way he does it is ingenious and cheap therefore deserving a front page... and ninjas are awesome.
2. It's not a blog, it's Instructables which is basically a DIY repository. You lose at teh internets.
3. Ninjas are awesome. - stygiansonic, on 10/12/2007, -0/+16With the shiny blades, they even look like the real thing.
- foolfromhell, on 10/12/2007, -0/+14need help. legal help. My little brother... killed him.... Should I run or go to trial?
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -1/+14lol anyone else think the tape is making it a little too flimsy?
- golhra, on 10/12/2007, -1/+14Maybe I could make a Ninja-star shooter out of legos. o_O
- jet3004, on 10/12/2007, -0/+12What, are you some kind of teacher?
- djNullSpace, on 10/12/2007, -0/+12More like "Lunchables".
- anguijm, on 10/12/2007, -1/+12Wow, you have a wife/husband/judge? I feel sorry for you. I only have a wife.
- TheNik, on 10/12/2007, -0/+11You can spice up this traditional recipe with a soddering iron. That way, there isn't the chance of the x-acto blades falling from the tape mid-air and hitting four targets instead of one. D:
- Tetraca, on 10/12/2007, -1/+10I believe that staper is mine.
- kcpwnsgman, on 10/12/2007, -1/+10Hopefully it will because he is impressed with your Ninja Star throwing capability, rather then being afraid of it, or you might have some explaining to do to your wife/husband/judge.
- daevyd, on 10/12/2007, -0/+8With the stars? Plead insanity, dude
- RegisteredUser, on 10/12/2007, -0/+7Hmm.. time to change the sign at work..
"It has been 000 days since the last workplace accident." - Kazrog, on 10/12/2007, -1/+8Yashichi !!!!
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yashichi - archer104, on 10/12/2007, -0/+7From www.piratesversusninjas.net
“Is there a successful series of videos called “Ask A Pirate”? I think not. Is the book Real Ultimate Power about Pirates? Think not. Did you ever hear of Pirate Gaiden? Nope. I think we have a clear winner here.”
“Ninjas would win because Pirates are now a punchline. How many Pirate jokes are there? A ton. A well placed pirate impersonation is a guaranteed laugh from your friends. How many Ninja jokes are there? None. Why? Because if you tried to tell one, a Ninja would jump out of a secret hiding place and kill you, that’s why.”
“Pirates are too busy getting drunk and raping the towns women to hear the sock wearing ninja folk. only problem is you never hear of ninjas swimming, so all of the attacks would have to happen on land. If the ninjas took swimming lessons at the YMCA, they would be unstoppable.”
The Inverse Ninja Law (or Inverse Ninja Theory) is credited to game designer Aaron Pavao of Sancho Games. The theory states that as a group of ninjas increases in members each individual ninja loses some of their power, but as the group decreases in members each individual ninja gains more power. In other words, the Inverse Ninja Law states that the Sum Ninja Effectiveness = 1/Ninjas. It is based upon those countless scenes in movies, cartoons, and anime where a group of ninjas is quickly dispatched with ease, but a lone ninja is nigh undefeatable. The theory has been used to make the claim that pirates simply cannot defeat ninjas ever: ninjas can always employ the tactic of splitting up, thus becoming many sole ninjas (each being unconquerable) instead of a one mass group of easily defeated ninjas. - spectre_25gt, on 10/12/2007, -0/+7South Park comes to mind for some reason.
- vash, on 10/12/2007, -2/+8@mmischke
"although the wife probably wouldn't let me toss 'em in the house"
*makes whip cracking noise* - crashflow, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6agreed. it should be "hey look everyone, bob shrieks like a girl" pain, not "CALL 911" pain.
- anasazi, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6i'm pretty certain that i'd be fired and escorted out of the building by heavilly armed guards the instant i attempted to make that.
- al28p, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6Their much too light to do any serious damage.
- draco8876, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6I like the idea of cheap, sharp, pointy objects to be thrown, I really do. I just don't think it needs to be put in the hands of the masses. Can you imagine what this would be like if a cubicle war was started between those guys in accounting and those in tech support?
The calendar might look like this: "Monday: Hawaiian shirt day, Tuesday & Wednesday: Normal dress day, Thursday: Office war day (wear a Kevlar vest or a couple phone books) , Friday: Casual Friday". - ReallyChili, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5Instructables? Are those like Trainables?
- subscribtion, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5Now all I have to do is find something in the office to make poison out of, you know for the tips. That way I don't have to concern myself with getting a kill shot, I merely have to break the skin.
- OrangeTide, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4the nice thing about the paper stars is you can actually throw them at people without getting arrested. and if you double the paper (you'll have to tape them to keep them from falling apart) you can throw them really really hard :)
- maoa, on 10/12/2007, -1/+5Wow, you have a wife? I feel sorry for you. I only have a judge.
- speedyrev, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4Sounds like a great way to cleanse the gene-pool.
- punkrockxtian, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3Four times the pain than normal exacto knives! Now all we need is add some weight to it and make a launcher...
- ThetaDot, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3I was in the presence of a lunchable very recently. Brought back memories of the 3rd grade cafeteria and the infamous noon-aides. *shudder*
- G33k0ft3chz, on 10/12/2007, -1/+4Ninja bitches!
Well I am surprised for it to be not Paper or cardboard! - draco8876, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3Most office cleaning supplies and most, if not all, pesticides are considered to be poisonous. Maybe find the most lethal ones?
- Atomic1fire, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3i wouldnt do this but would like to recomend the following rules of use
1. keep people a select feet away from the aiming ratios
2. dont let people come near you
3. dont let people do loud sudden noises
4.do not use moving targets as if you miss a moving target you could hurt someone
5. use a non living target like a corkboard
6. do not use these in a public area as you could be arested or labled a terrorist
7. obviously do not bring one on a plane
8. do not use one while angry
9. and the most important one keep away from stupid people and/or children
9 rules to the osns there you go - LucasVB, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3Haha! These will go great with the paperclip caltrops I invented a couple months ago!
- deathscytheh64, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2The funny thing is, the blog poster voiced concern in the comments about legal repercussions in his comments and if people would actually do something stupid.
Considering its front page position on Digg, its probability skyrocketed... - gmoney, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2I'm SO throwing mine!
HEADS UP!! - foolfromhell, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2I think I will
- idonthack, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2@geepee
I would digg it. -
