Quote of the day—Comfortably Smug‏ @ComfortablySmug

    • Keep in mind they will be shooting you at the same time if not before. And they will be extremely fast shooters and incredibly accurate.

    • That might work for a couple minutes if they weren’t able to just power on through it. If they couldn’t just essentially ignore they would find a solution such as tearing it up or kicking dirt and/or sand on top of it.

  5. “The 600 series had rubber skin. We spotted them easy. But these are new, they look human. Sweat, bad breath, everything. Very hard to spot.
    ….
    It can’t be bargained with. It can’t be reasoned with. It doesn’t feel pity, or remorse, or fear! And it absolutely will not stop, ever, until you are dead!”
