Upon further thought, I could definitely see this being true on some rigs in third world countries.

I mean it cuts out the middle man.
Could you imagine these on cruise ships?

I thought this was the Oil Rig WC. I mean, it's on the internet so it must be true... right?

Good lord !!

Good lord !!

Yeah - there's, uhm... more out there if you want to look. I stumbled across this while looking for something much more mundane about oil rigs.
Isn't that always the way?

You'd make a great Merchant Mariner, as grouchy is a prerequisite!

I wish I could find you a good video I saw of a "blowout!"
Once control is lost and thousands of feet of drill pipe are blown out of the hole, erosion happens RAPIDLY, blowing rocks the size of softballs into the sky, which come raining back down.

Believe me, 16,000+ PSI, coming out of a 6-8 inch hole, sounds as if the hounds of hell have been turned loose. I've been there and it automatically kicks one into "fight or flight mode"... with nowhere to go.

Good Lord I remember those KP duty days! Long days and punch drunk…would just laugh hysterically at the silliest things.

Yes, it was awful work. But ya hadda make it fun. Some of the dumbest shit!

Contests, dumb jokes and the occasional fight.

My most memorable moment: I was at Ft Hood, a new private e2 shitbird and these two guys start arguing:

Pvt 1: oh yeah?
Pvt 2: yeah.
Pvt 1: fuck you!
Pvt 2: No!

It didn’t go farther than that, cuz we were just all falling about the place. I don’t know if it was the best comeback or the worst comeback of all time!

 

[Wonderer67]

My gran always said, "if you can read, you can cook"

Love that!!

 

[Wonderer67]

Off for a blood gasses exchange . . . .

I’m not sure what that means.

And…

I don’t wanna know what that means!

 

[Wonderer67]

Never ate Bullwikle but had some Yogi.

Like pic-a-nic baskets??

Hello Missk is that your Cat in your Av picture? Actually now that I look closer at it they look like two different cats and they are gorgeous.

 

[Wonderer67]

Could you please FAX me a helping of that Peach Crisp?

Fax is so 20th century.

Can’t they send a scratch n sniff??

 

[Wonderer67]

And the window is sticky and needed to be fixed first.


At least I didn't break a nail.


But hey, the Giants won!!!

Wow- I see that they did!

Holy hell.

The Mets lost….

I don't recall if "blowout" was what I was seeking, but it was something that sparked during your Oil Rig 101 discussions with this landlubber.

There are some wild video clips from Oil Rigs out there on the tube

The only blowout I've seen was in the Hollywood mvoie, "Deepwater Horizon". Every interview I've seen of a Hollywood director quotes them as saying something to the effect of, "We researched to make this as close to reality as we could". Doesn't mean they achieved their objective. And I have 0 personal knowledge to call out anything contrary to reality.

I can out grouch the worst grouch... snd i know lots of cool words

*picks up gauntlet*

 

[Wonderer67]

I mean... who wants their bits dangling above schools of hungry fish?

can fish jump 50ft up and bite scroti??

 

[Wat_Tyler]

I’m not sure what that means.

And…

I don’t wanna know what that means!

I went for a 12K step walk. More oxygen, less carbon dioxide.

Sure L2, sure…
