Does it have a motion activated trigger?
If someone shoots Boris, the owner will have a lot more to worry about than home invaders
If I had a Boris, I’d be dead before they got a chance to shoot Boris. At which point Boris will have done his job.
Also the whole needing a mega sonic bullet and he’ll likely get handgun fire.
Yeah, most rifle calibers are needed to set off tannerite. Should’ve mentioned that in my original comment, but oh well lol.
Boris has a bananamag, which is literally communism, hence he’s getting AR’d without question long before someone pulls a Glock on him.
You’re good homie. I’m just a pedantic.
would think you would have said I’m just a pedant or I’m just being pedantic then… 😄
Simple, small audio sensor rigged to detonator, when systems active it can be set off by gunshots
How big is that foyer? Is the wall behind Boris a steel wall per chance ?
Better include a steel roof, because the structural integrity of the ceiling ain’t looking great once the dust clears.
Was it Terry Pratchett or Douglas Addams that had a witch that was going to be burned at the stake? She had a little future-sight abd went to her death willingly and with dignity. And with 50pounds of roofing nails in a barrel of gunpowder under her dress.
Definitely TP. I remember reading this, and the setting was not on an oddly numerous inhabitable planets.
Pratchett. Agnes nutter in good omens
Become the claymore you wish to see in the world.
Good Omens, by Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett
You mean just Terry Pratchett, right? 😢
GNU Sir Terry, Neil can get one final clack
unfortunately Neil Gaiman is still alive and benefits directly from things like purchases, so no. You cannot mikufy an author who benefits.
I’m OOTL on this, did Gaiman do something?
Conflated abuse with being a dom.
While I’m not one to shame someone’s sexual proclivities, there is absolutely lines and consents requirements. So if you engage in stuff that cross lines or without consent, you’ve lost me.
He doesn’t sound like a decent guy.
Yup. No one cares if you wanna get greased up and play human pig farm, but this arsehole sexually abused multiple women, one of them incredibly horrifically then had the balls to turn around and say “hurr i thought it was consensual”
I’m not part of the scene but i understand that a “dom” that doesn’t pay attention to whether or not the sub is consenting and enjoying themselves is no dom at all. Just an abusive cunt.
Yeah he uh did the whole abuse thing en masse. His ex wife would find babysitters who he could have sex with IIRC. It was a whole thing, the women involved weren’t exactly left feeling like they had any choice in the matter. But I don’t really remember the details.
from wikipedia:
Claire described non-consensual kissing and groping by Gaiman after meeting him at a book tour event, as well as a $60,000 payment from Gaiman to her in August 2022.[176] A woman identified as “K”, who also first met Gaiman at a book signing, said that during their relationship he subjected her to painful sex that she “neither wanted nor enjoyed”.[21][177]
Scarlett Pavlovich, a former nanny for Gaiman and Palmer’s child, alleges that Gaiman sexually assaulted her within hours of their first meeting in February 2022.[177] Pavlovich recalled that he said, “Amanda told me I couldn’t have you” after the assault; according to one of Palmer’s friends, Palmer had previously told Gaiman, “You could really hurt this person and break her; keep your hands off of her”. Pavlovich said that Gaiman had anal sex with her in the presence of his son.[21]
Caroline Wallner, a former tenant of Gaiman’s, alleges that he demanded sexual favours in exchange for being allowed to continue living on his property.[21][178] Wallner says that on one occasion, Gaiman grabbed her hand and placed it on his penis while his young son was asleep in the same bed.[21] In 2021, Wallner, her ex-husband, and Gaiman signed a non-disclosure agreement (NDA), and Gaiman paid Wallner $275,000. In early 2025, Gaiman and Wallner both requested arbitration, the dispute resolution method mandated by the NDA, each accusing the other of violating the agreement.[179]
The writer Julia Hobsbawm accused Gaiman of “an aggressive, unwanted pass” and described how Gaiman pushed her onto a sofa and French kissed her in 1986.[178][180]
and something that made it really fucking obvious, if it wasn’t already:
In a blog post responding to coverage of the allegations against him, Gaiman said there were “moments I half-recognise and moments I don’t”.
he doesn’t even fucking try to deny it
E: something else that pisses me off is this part:
Gaiman has denied engaging in non-consensual sex, and dismissed Hobsbawm’s allegations as misreading the situation.[178][180]
If she says he sexually assaulted her and he says she fucking misread the situation, then he sexually assaulted her. are you fucking kidding me. the most good-faith interpretation is that he misread the situation an assaulted her without intending to do so, but given the track-record and the fact that he says that she misread the situation instead of being horrified at himself, I am willing to extend absolutely no good faith. </rant>
JFC. This is why we can’t have nice things anymore! What is it with being rich and sex stuff? Like Hunter is rich, and he just got himself some big booty latinas hookers i.e.; completely consenting adults! (Also pretty sure he shared his blow with them, which is a bro move). So it’s not all of them. But the disgusting amount of people Epstein had in his BoB, and r Kelly, and Diddy, and Kevin spacey, and…
I’m tired boss.
Wow, what a peice of shit human. I’m glad I’ve not gotten into any of his work so I can just simply avoid.
Thank you for providing all this information and sources.
It’s a real bummer because The Sandman was incredible
Mostly yes, but we should not step this low. From the original source linked in Wikipedia:
His position is that it was no more than a young man misreading a situation,
So the bad wording is wikipedias fault
Accused of sexual misconduct from what i recall, I don’t remember the details
Neil Gaiman
Yeah that doesn’t look like anything at all to me.
Thats was it. Thank you.
Terry Pratchett and Neil Gaiman. That’s Good Omens
This reminds me of the time the police got called to an office building because someone saw a man with a rifle in one of the windows. Turns out it was a gaming studio, and the man was a human-size cardboard cutout advertising Battlefield or some similar first person shooter.
At the hospital where I had my sleep studies done the only available parking was next to a probably five story building. On the second floor down from the top someone had put a mannequin in an EMS vest against their office window and left the lights on.
Whoever that person was should feel accomplished, as it successfully startled me every time I had to walk across that parking lot alone at 10pm.
And there’s people out there that think the average person can tell AI from reality?
I remember that, it was the office of Infinity Ward, the Modern Warfare devs.
Be Boris, Friend.
Boris will not drop the gun, but he will drop the building structure.
I’m worried Boris won’t go off. He’s most likely to be shot with a handgun which won’t set off the tannerite.
You can also put the explosif in a steel trapezoid with the wide part open towards the front. Basically a claymore, but you’d have to manually set it off.
Ooh Boris spits metal, that’s a good idea
There’s a mix that’s designed to work with rim fire and other lower-velocity stuff. It’s not as powe4ful, but is more-easily triggered.
A dumb friend put some in a chewing tobacco tin and launch it from a skeet launcher to shoot with a shotgun using bird shot. I personally would not be that close to anything I was blowing up, even with a plastic shell.
A plastic shell could be even worse, too. Using plastic and glass for shrapnel (I think ceramic as well?) is considered a war crime because they don’t show up on x-rays, which makes it very hard to find - practically impossible in the case of small glass shards.
I hope Boris has a very substantial steel plate behind his back.
Gotta protect whoever’s behind him with high speed steel plate to the face
I also hope he has some servos to move his arms with motion detectors.
Unfortunately I think this is still illegal 😔
So is executing unarmed people in the street but that seems to be where the calvinball game is at.
Probably in most jurisdictions but maybe not if you shoot it yourself. Then it goes from being a trap to a remote controlled weapon.
Extremely, there are explicit laws against booby trapping your own property and you can face full prosecution even if it harms only burglars.
If Boris is being shot and explodes, the likelihood of the home owner already being killed by ICE or other agents is pretty high.
I don’t think borris needs to explode for him to be discovered and you to be charged lol
If I’m dead, who are they charging? And who’s charging me when Boris kills the rest of them who killed me?
Ah, so your idea is a dead-man’s-switch, clever.
Doesn’t even need that. If Boris is in the foyer, I’m answering the front door. If push comes to shove and I’m killed at the front door, they already know a threat exists. Then they enter the house and attempt to detain Boris.
Gotta ask though, if it needs to be shot to go off, is that really a booby trap? I have draino in my house, that isn’t a trap. Maybe you have to put a sign on it saying don’t shoot?
It would absolutely, 100% go to trial, and the prosecution could easily prove an intent to harm.
As much as the Better Call Saul kinds of legal arguments look clever on TV, in reality the law is much more about vibes and how people interpret what happened.
They can’t put you in jail if you’re fucking dead cuz you blew up your house.
Any sort of trap is illegal, for good reason.
Although tannerite is stable unless you shoot it with a round going over 2000ft/s
What if you hung a sign in your house stating “This is my tannerite storage mannequin, do not shoot him”?
I see there is Gender Reveal Tannerite, which would dye the perps a chosen color.
Would probably die them too
Can you get that in rainbow color
Get some of that super-fine glitter. The ones who survive will be sparkling for weeks.
They probably are just using a dry dye powder or powder paint. Which comes in many colours.
Only pink and blue. But many options in DIY.
Mix them and get a nice purple!
“Boris, Boris Claymore”
This is no “go big or go home” he simply goes boom. He give me Mole from Atlantis vibes.
(https://media.piefed.social/posts/El/Pa/ElPafaXi8arpuGA.png)
Same energy as “claymore in the snow room aimed at the outside door”. It can only do one thing and it will statistically do it to the person spending the most time around it, not any imagined opposition.
If I am not mistaken, you have to shoot tannerite to cause it to go off. So unless the owner in this case is shooting guns in their house it seems pretty likely this wont go off or harm them, but will harm someone who chooses to shoot an armed civilian for not putting their gun down.
That’s the joke.jpg
ICE is shooting unarmed civilians, so seeing Boris here would make their nuts shrivel like a booger on an Arizona Tarmac in the middle of summer, and the only way for them to regain their illusion of masculinity will be to shoot him, too.
Pistols, that ICE has been using to murder innocent civilians, won’t set off tannerite. You need high velocity rifle rounds, typically .223 Rem and up.
If they’re breaching a house they’re going to be bringing long guns.
Such a poor choice in cramped closed quarters.
unless the owner in this case is shooting guns in their house
Do you not?
While tannerite does need that extreme concussion to go off, it is still more likely to hurt the person who set it up as this seems like a stand off tactic.
Unless you have to enter the house to see Boris. They are gonna shoot from a distance.
Tannerite is designed to be shot from a distance. It’s main purpose is to give immediate feedback when you hit a long distance target.
That’s what the screws are for.
Long distance has different meanings depending on weapon type.
Keep one in the car so you can use the HOV lane.
The things you can do when your house has two floors.
for now.
after 170+ pounds of tannerite you’ll be lucky to have a house left.
