Maggie’s Funny & awesome pics, vids and memes thread (work safe, no nudity)

Seriously, of all the camo schemes that I've seen, the Flecktarn is the most versatile; at least in North America. That's not unlike the region that it was developed in.

My Father, a WWII veteran, complained that the Germans in that camo were very difficult to see.

The next best camo are the variants from RealTree but you have to be in the specific environment for it to work. With the Flecktarn you could be in a grassy meadow or deep in the woods and still have a modicum of effectiveness.

Anyway, it would be nice to get something like that to wear without looking like I'm trying to make some weird statement a wannabe member of the Bundeswehr.

Then there is the...


My BiL and I were elk hunting in the Maroon Bells wilderness area a few years ago. We settled down to glass a hillside and meadow. A little while later we hear talking. A few minutes pass and a couple of hikers bop on by, completely oblivious to our presence. Getting towards dark and we’re about to call it for the evening and those two hikers are coming back. As we stand and heft our packs, one of those guys looked to about have a heart attack. As well as we were camouflaged, I don’t blame him. We were both wearing hunter orange hats and vests… 😒🤣🤦🏻‍♂️

My kids loved it…..you don’t have to leave the car drive right through the loop - animals everywhere.

One of the sows was in heat and my kids got to watch her pulling train on a whole bunch of boars. I called that one Stickyback.


gotta be careful visiting there, I was mauled by a Grizzly last time I was there with my son when he was about 5 years old. horrible thing for a child to have to see. few people survive a mauling by a Grizz

there is a small fenced area where you can see the cubs up close, back in the day it had a chain link fence around this enclosure, of course clearly marked "do not touch the bears." we had a grizzly cub rubbing up against the fence right next to us so I stuck my finger through the fence scratching its head and ears, getting a good laugh about how much it was enjoying the scratching. until the little fucker turned and bit the living shit outta my finger!

very hard to act like a man and say it didn't hurt, all while explaining to my young son that I hoped he learned a lesson and that is the exact reason you should never do touch the bears....

he was an adorable fuzzy little bastard though.

Did you just call a bite on a finger a mauling?
And compare to a real mauling that can be fatal?

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Go be a pussy somewhere else!

Plus you were doing something stupid.

You must live in Jackson

No way to touch them now. 4' drop to the closest that they could get to you.

Interblag picture (none of mine showed what I wanted). Pretty sure they have electric fence below the green fence.

Holy Shit, there is an actual "I was mauled by a bear and am postling a 'Mall Cop-level' sub-conversation" going on here?

Eggman? Does this imply he ovulates? Because I hear dudes can do that now. On some forums.

I am not casting aspersions at anyone. Just that I think I saw what I think I just saw.

And this is going to be epic!

Sirhr

That's nothing!

When I was a young man a group of cougars would stalk me when I would go to the local watering hole.

If they got hold of me, they wouldn't let go till the sun came up.
 
I took my 5 yr old to AK for a couple weeks 6 yrs ago.

We saw bears. Lots of them.

No mauling!
Also did not try to pet any….

.460 Rowland on a g21 frame at all times. Sucker is rowdy!


Been under 100 yds from more bears than I care to guess, north of 200 easily, some with me in a boat, most of them on foot. Usually with a 65+ lb pack.
Sometimes with a stringer of salmon tied off beside me.
Never once charged or felt I was gonna be charged.
Always ready to go to bear spray or lead though.

Went to Wegmans (local yuppie grocery store chain) today to pick up some salmon, since it's the only place I know of to get salmon that's not from Chile. (Picked up some sockeye and wild caught atlantic salmon to try, so we'll see how that goes.) Also, they do dry aged steaks and I picked up a ribeye. I haven't quite nailed down the reverse sear process yet, so I decided to slice it into two thin steaks and did a simple pan fry. Couple tablespoons of butter in the pan with salt & pepper to season. Came up on the rare side of medium. Not the most tender steak I've ever had and I didn't notice a huge difference in flavor. Maybe a little bit of something I couldn't quite place. I'm not sold on dry aging yet but I'd be willing to try it again someday.

Man good thing your mind is in the right place and it wasn’t your dick.
 
Once a squirrel came close to mauling me. Well I mean the little fucker got within 5 feet of me. Still makes me lose sleep.

That's nothing. I once kicked over a hollow tree truck, a squirrel came charging out and mistook my leg for a tree. Made it up to my waist before realizing I wasn't wooden.

The horror is real.
 
Maybe I'm just an ignorant African. Of all the different foods available in a first world country, why on God's green earth would you choose baked beans to accompany a medium cooked rib-eye? 🤣
