It looks like he was planning to send it, but chickened out and bailed.

So...try outs for The Fall Guy?  Or is it a clipping from a reboot of The Incredible Journey done by Michael Bay?

So Troo, funny how it seems
Always in time, but never in line for dreams
Head over heels when toe to toe
This is the sound of my soul
This is the sound
I bought a ticket to the world
But now I've come back again
Why do I find it hard to write the next line?
Oh I want the truth to be said

[Troo]

Always slipping from my hands
Sand's a time of its own
Take your seaside arms and write the next line
Oh I want the truth to be known

Huh huh huh hu-uh huh

 

Gotta love @Bionic_Flea

Yo-Yo Melee

Not as far-fetched as it sounds. The yo-yo, like the boomerang, was originally a hunting weapon.

(I used to live in the Philippines, and they made sure we knew it every year in school. They were roughly the size of a dinner plate, IIRC. You hid up in a tree and waited for some animal to walk under you, then >whammo!< walked the dog on its head!)

They need to update the Wikipedia article then, it disagrees.

  Dark Helmet: What happened to then?
  Colonel Sandurz: We passed then.
  Dark Helmet: When?
  Colonel Sandurz: Just now. We're at now now.
  Dark Helmet: Go back to then.
  Colonel Sandurz: When?
  Dark Helmet: Now.

  Dark Helmet: Why?
  Colonel Sandurz: We missed it.

  Dark Helmet: When will then be now?

  Dark Helmet: How soon?

So the buzz saw yo-yo from Bond is not as crazy as it sounds.

Or Taco Bell. Then it would be really soon!

Apparently you do not know the power of White Castles.  It's an eastern US thing.

Wouldn't be the first time teachers taught utter BS!

 

(I work at a university, and not long ago I overheard a professor spouting the discredited "there are Visual, Audible, and Tangible learners" hypothesis. What is true is that actual experience -- doing things themselves -- drives home lessons better than any form of presentation.)

I have aspergers and find if someone shows me I get it really quickly. If someone gives me a book on how to do it I'm no wiser once I finished. Presentations with slides and examples works, but again it's the visual thing with actual pictures of what I need to know. Working security we generally have visual aids and practical training. It's all in a folder for easy reference, but I mostly use it for door and alarm codes in rarely entered areas. I learned everything I needed to learn following an experienced guard round and watching what he did.

Yeah, I'm still having fun investigating just how much of that is part of my personality or me trying to adapt to it subconsciously. >.<
