A while back, I was home in Virginia for a little while, and my friend James decided it was time to build a trebuchet
Pictured: James, Doug
I say measure once, cut eighty or ninety times.
As you can see by Doug’s hat, trebuchets are very serious business.
I had to leave before we could test it, but they finished up the last touches in my absence. This week, we got a chance to fire it for the first time.
The projectile (three full Dr Pepper cans taped together) vanished off into the woods. Firing successful! In the video, you can see falling leaves cut by the projectile.
In other news, Geohashing is working out wonderfully. At the most recent meetup I attended, we flew a camera from a kite and then tried to spell words under it.
There’s a new feature in the map-locating program where you can suggest and vote on alternate meetup sites for a given day. So far, the pattern is generally that we show up at the location, then find a nearby park or restaurant to hang out at. Bringing games and activities is encouraged.
I wasn’t able to make it to the most recent meetup because I was at MoCCA. By the way — thank you to Chris Hastings of Dr. McNinja for his generous hospitality. He gave me a place to sleep with no advance warning and didn’t even get mad when I spent the night sick on his couch, beat him at Mario Kart, and stole half his stuff. (If anyone wants a good deal on some of his erotic Batman fan art, let me know.)
This afternoon (starting 4:00-ish), some friends and I are heading to Belle Island in Richmond, VA, which is an alternate location for today’s geohash. I hear there are fireworks or something?
xkcd is a webcomic created by Randall Munroe,[1][2] a former contractor for NASA.[3] It calls itself “a webcomic of romance, sarcasm, math, and language.”[4][5] The site states there is no particular meaning to the name,[5] that it is simply a “treasured and carefully-guarded point in the space of four-character strings.”[6]
The subjects of the comics themselves vary. Some are statements on life and love (some love strips are simply art with poetry), and some are mathematical or scientific in-jokes. Some strips feature simple humor or pop-culture references. Although known for its crudely drawn cast of oddball stick figures,[7][2] the comic occasionally features landscapes, intricate mathematical patterns such as fractals (for example, strip #17 “What If” shows an Apollonian gasket[8]), or imitations of the style of other cartoonists (as during “parody week”). Occasionally, realism is featured.[9][10]

Ladies and gentlemen, may I present you with a disturbing piece of information.
Please direct your attention to the first picture accompanying this blog post.
Now, please direct your attention to this image. http://www.nuklearpower.com/comics/080626.png
The being depicted in the second image is referred to as a “Bad haircut demon”. I think we might need to be very afraid.
Wow, Randall…You live/are from Virginia. What part?
Just wanted to say that that’s pretty awesome, and give mad props to my boy JAMES (the dude in that blag post) who I happen to work with. Does that make me an internet superstar by default?
I didnt read the whole thread, but i am in awe of this “Doug”‘s resemblance to Jason of Foxtrot o.O
did they just take this thing to massachusetts?A friend of mine took a pic of one attached to a uhaul. The trailer had Virginia plates.
Ummm… The Geohash thing keeps sending me into the ocean and when I find a date that keeps me dry I have other things planned. Is it a conspiracy? Are you all just virtual puppets sent to lure me on to a raft in the north sea?
I am surprised that you did not realize that trebuchet’s are serious business. They are very serious business.

OMFG Doug looks exactly like Milo from “Bloom County”.
O__O
That trebuchet is almost exactly like the one we converted our Science Olympiad catapult for Trajectory in the B division to after competition.

Trebuchets! I have a friend who is obsessed with them… He currently has 3, all of them larger than a person, and the two smaller ones he has, he has a great deal of fun with them.
So here’s the scenario. My dad does Black Powder Shotgunning, clay targets, and he goes to a club every month. Following me? Good. You’ll see what this has to do with the previous comment soon, though I can imagine you have a vague Idea where I’m going with this. So one day my dad decides. ‘Hmm. I think I might ask him to bring his Trebuchets out…’ So he does. He also brings bags of flour weighted for the treb. Queue about a dozen or more shotgunners lined up to the side of the firing trajectory. Take aim. Fire the bag of flour…
I swear, it was one of the funniest things I’ve ever seen. The repeated this procedure until it got dark, when the treb guy swapped to oil-soaked rags enclosed in chicken-wire, which equated to hurling fireballs accross the field. Altogether a wonderful day.
Excuse my rant, I thought you and the fellow xkcd-ians would find that immensly amusing.
Welcome back to Va.

Great news! Thanks a lot for sharing!
Welcome back my friend. Love to see more of your post.
It’s ronald weasely! (sp?)
Doug’s hair is magnificent
Nice construction. Do you plan a war or something like that? It is nice when working together when meeting and reach a great success.
Someone please cut that kids hair
ummm who creates this stuff …. i love it i would love to meet the person who creates the comics!!!! <3
I’m getting rather obsessed with recycling these days… I hope you picked up the litter you created, at least
Still, good job.
Hmm, the reCAPTCHA said “cosmic loans”, harhar. Apparently they’re becoming almost pointless now anyway as AI advances — although I did see a bizarre 3D scene based “What’s the letter associated with the person’s left arm?” concept that made me laugh. Quite clever though, as it involved a scene comprising different objects like humans and flowers (of all things to use as an example…), moveable joints, and randomly picked arrangements. It would still be a visual approach only though, unless it came with audio description.
WTF is Joe Shabadoo about, taking up an inordinate amount of comment space with what appears to be almost an entire wiki article on XKCD?! Or is this, along with that rather amusingly stupid “PISSCOCK” nonsense, part of a bizarre new form of spam?
I am quite sure Doug’s hair is the cure for cancer.
It has to be…
It is just so goddamn magnificent. I am left modest in its grandeur…I am crushed beneath the overwhelming power it emits.
I can only assume that you have to fend women off of this Doug fellow because his hair is 90 million times more powerful than any propaganda situation proposed by the folks behind 3 letter deodorant commercials (Let it be known if your deodorant is a single syllable it smells like ass … which I believe is also a single syllable…so it’s appropriate).
Regardless to my little tangent…if there is a god he/she spent all their time working on that wondrous mane.
Goddamn I’m jealous…
PS. 1889, Nickerson was my reCAPTCHA …I don’t know why but it sounds somewhat like an erotic novel for old pre-civil war era American Settlers.

Trebuchets, Geohashes, and Richmond, VA CANADA !
Just learning about Trebuchets the first time, since I’m a big comic fan its quite strange that I did not find this earlier. Thanks for sharing
This is a very nice blog that I will definitively come back to several more times this year

that’s a crazy analysis in the 1st comment

I’d really appreciate it! thank you
