File this under: "Strange Lego Creations" A Lego builder decided to create this fully functional "semi-automatic pump-action Lego crossbow that took four blocks in the handle and one in the chamber" -- along with 300 hours of work put in. It's capable of firing a standard Lego brick 20 yards. One potential negative, the crossbow isn't very accurate. Lots more pics after the jump.
One day I was making a simple little elastic gun to shoot Lego blocks and I thought to myself, 'it would be cooler if it had some kind of trigger.' The next thing I knew, I was involved in a competition with my own self

[...] Yes people, this woman hid an armed gun in her VAGINA. Need I say more? Yes! I need say more. Here's another stupid person, more relevant to what I usually rant about: Video games blamed on idiocy. Too lazy to click the link because you know I'm going to rant about it anyway, and consequently let you in on what the gist of the link was? Good guess, because that's exactly what I'm going to do! So this.."Tyrone"…he..geez…he steals a car and attempts to outrun police because he could do it in GTA. The dude is 30. What?! Back in the 80's did he attempt to mug someone by jumping on their heads, ala Super Mario? Did he frequently jaywalk because he did "alright" in Frogger? Did he sign up for the Wimbledon because he has some "skills" in Pong? Is this guy a fucking moron? I mean seriously, why do video games get blamed, when obviously there is an obvious defect in some peoples brains. Maybe it's the underwhelming, underperforming, underdeveloped educational system? Who knows, mayhaps! Mayhappity haps! But at least with every stupid person, there are equally cool inventions (that may be stupid). What am I talking about you ask? Why do I keep asking you so many questions, you wonder? Why won't I stop, is you query? You ponder on my inane banter? As if I'm stalling? Mayhaps I am..but I'm not! Because here is a fine example of human achievement: A fully functional LEGO crossbow. Maybe you don't understand what it is. It's a crossbow made of legos. That that has a high potential of being able to kill you. It's killing potential for an object made out of rudimentary shapes in brazen colors? HIGH. Fear this LEGO weapon. You know what I can make with legos? A Robot that the Frankenstein monster would revile.  That was my greatest creation.  I played with the premade legos with the pieces that were so obvious, where you can click just 3 pieces together and you would have a fully functioning aircraft carrier, and mine ended up a mishappen hill with ugly robots on top.  Do you understand what I'm getting at? This person made something that not only looks like an actual object, but works like that object! Geez! I'm amazed! [...]
