> [@originalsin](#): > > i actually learned something about this in class today haha, some chemist was to be beheaded or watever in the 1700’ s and wanted to test the theory of how long the head stays alive, after his head was cut off he blinked 14 times that sounds familiar, i recall hearing something to this affect. we should definitely have an nyspeed meet to build a guillotine though. that would be outstanding. then, when we are finished, we can draw straws to see who is going to get their head cut off so we can test this blinking theory. ---

There is nothing I like more than to have more than a guillotine in the old backyard, besides the obvious scare tactic for the thieves and rapists, and the ability to have your own method of citizens death penalty for all the time I wana use it on my all my instances of citizens arrest I feel need real justice instead of putting them through the courts . Plus the endless amount of things you could chop and cut up with it I mean comon just take ten seconds to think of al the things you want to chop in half or even fourths!! seriously take a few seconds ill wait … ok good by now you want a guillotine also so you will join us in our community build excellent. ---

> [@Zong](#): > > :lol: I just reread that shit in context. I don’t think you were. i guess you are just not familiar with sarcasm. oh well. the whole post was a joke until i said that i would get together with people to build a guillotine. i don’t see how you could pass up such an opportunity. so who wants in on this thing? ---
