Fair Winds, and Following Seas, Grandpa of Grandpa Kitchen

Posted on October 30, 2019 by Weerd Beard

I had to title it a bit odd, because all of my grandparents are dead, this was the man behind the youtube channel Grandpa Kitchen. For those who never watched the video, he was a man from southern India who would cook MASSIVE amounts of food in an open field, and then travel to an orphanage and feed the children and the poor.

It was amazing to watch as a food nerd, but also heart warming.

Unfortunately the last few videos have been helmed by his son, as Grandpa was ill, and it appears that he has succumbed to his illness. I found the video of his funeral to be just as facinating and heart warming as his videos:

I say this whenever anybody I love or has touched my life has passed: All of us will die someday, the best any of us can hope for is to be missed when we are gone, and to be remembered long after. This memory is really a form of immortality. I’d say Grandpa did better than most in his life.

Best wishes to his family and to his channel moving forward!

To close I thought I’d post one of his cooking videos I really enjoyed.

If The Taser Doesn’t Work, Shoot Him in the Leg!

Posted on October 2, 2019 by Weerd Beard

Found this video that shows another trope:

Taser shot and doesn’t work, the guy gets pelted with 12 gauge beanbags, and 40mm Less-Than-Lethal, and eventually one officer shoots him twice, once in the arm, once in the leg.

Have a look at the video, dude barely notices, and the police even cut the video because it takes him so long to realize he’s in mortal danger from that leg bleed.

Also note that if he continued to be violently crazy he potentially could have died from that wound. Hell if you remember this story, this poor guy was taking out his trash when a broken wine glass poked through the bag and slashed his femoral artery. He bled to death before he could get help, a bullet can do a LOT more damage than a wine glass.

So yeah, this is why we always talk about center of mass shots, extremity shots MIGHT work and MIGHT be non-lethal, or the might NOT work, and/or they might be lethal.

And of course the only reason why this arrest went as well as it did was because the cops vastly out-numbered the crazy. Had this been just a private citizen on a walking trail or taking out their trash, it might not have ended so well.
