Keep an eye on that large gentleman in the tux (and if you can accurately identify his likeness, then you are a hardcore classic horror movie fan). He may be reappearing later…
Be back this Sunday, when at long last, both Scapula and the readers will witness the terror that is the Kabale!
Gah, now I’m going to be wracking my brain for this one because he does look familiar!
Also: Smooth, Scap. Real smooth.
I’ll give you some clues: He was in a horror movie. He’s a man. He was a bad guy.
That’s all you get.
Well. THAT narrows things down! I guess I can skip the comedy and drama sections of my memory now!
Yeah, no, I’ve officially hit bottom and I have no clue on this one.
Just had another thought……. you can hide a couple decently sharp things in a necktie. Razors, thin knives, a pen-gun, a small flat explosive or flash stripe, maybe a stiletto. Also, during a patdown, only the most thorough searchers (me, for example) will check directly at the back of the neck. You can hide a few things there. A bowie knife was a western classic, but a derringer under your collar isn’t a bad pick either. A little tape goes a long way.
Also suggested: a metal collar lining. Stiffens the collar and can also prevent you from being choked if it’s properly fitted. And if asked you just have to say you’re a fan of properly shaped high collars.
I knew a guy who wore ties that concealed a length of thin, steel chain that had little metal weights on either end. Kind of like….. a padded mini-manriki chain. I always wanted one.
Hm. Not my weapon of choice……. too much training involved when I can just bash someone’s face in with a roll of quarters in my fist! Another trick for those looking for a little hard-to-spot backup, AND it makes sure you have a few bucks for a drink if you need it.
A roll of quarters is handy. I’ve always said ‘It’s the simple things in live that are the easiest to enjoy….. and the hardest to screw up.’
A glass eye can also be substituted with a tiny vial of explosive liquid. Just watch out for the Three Stooges; their classic ‘eye poke’ will cause the vial to explode.
That’s actually a good one! If I ever lose an eye I’ll consider that.
Smooth as silk.
…yet made for a man.
We have the same infiltration tactics: Pure blubbering. 😀
He is a taller version of the dummy from Dead Silence haha
Like with most nefarious schemes, it’s either gonna result in the best day of your life or the absolute worst. There’s really no middle ground.
