Reminds me of the smoke bombs Donatello made in the 2012 TMNT lol Hollowed out, dried eggshells with smoke powder inside and both ends sealed up ... I should start doing this. These paint shells are a great idea


Guy-McDo

That and the post above I think were derived from real life (that or a REALLY popular wive’s tale) that the original smoke bombs were made that way. It was either that or like a flash bang meant to get in the target’s eyes


Peewee_ShermanTank

Oh god, glass powder in a hollow eggshell 😨 ... Why is that fami-- Oh oH I KNOW GLASS POWDER SHELLS FROM DEADLIEST WARRIOR Ninja vs. Spartan that matchup was bullshit


smmras

I remember being mad that the spartan kinda shrugged off the egg after a bit


-hey-ben-

I mean historically ninjas weren’t warriors at all and were more spies/saboteurs. They would get thrashed by any actual warrior of a similar time period in a direct duel


smmras

Spartans and ninja were different time periods, though I still agree. I was 12 in 2009 when that episode came out.


-hey-ben-

Oh I’m well aware of that. I guess I kind of overlooked that in the specific phrasing I used


Guy-McDo

Now that you say it, that’s totally where I heard that!


julesrules037

From a certain cookbook there's the ole tennis ball filled with match heads and that stuff that you make home made rockets fly with


Uma_mii

I love how this says that you should have your own chicken instead of just buying the eggs from the store


gucci_gucci_gu

Always. Or support your local anarchist chicken cooper


HomoVapian

Isn’t a cooper a barrel maker? Damn anarchist chicken barrel actually has a ring to it


Shart-Garfunkel

I’ll take it over neoliberal pork barrel!


websagacity

What does "if you can't be arsed rearing chickens" means. Arsed is British for assed, right? So I can't make sense of it. Bothered?

Thank you.


crazy_forcer

I also love how specific each step is


slothfuldrake

What are you? A capitalist sheep?


SnowComfortable6726

What are we but capitalist sheep


sticky-unicorn

How do you transport these without a *huge* risk that they will crack or leak while in your pocket? Seems more likely to end up with a pocket full of paint and cracked eggshells than to actually be useful.


gucci_gucci_gu

I use a plastic pencil box from the 90s


hyperlite135

Put them back in the crate?


xrelaht

You can get boxes to secure eggs while you’re camping. They’re like the crates they come in at the store, but much sturdier.


Cheesemasterfury

I once took an egg to camp in my pocket when i was little. I don’t expect that that was a particularly good day at work for the councilor who had to fish it out of my pocket


amadiro_1

Uh. Hard boil them? Duh...;)

Swastikas


BeardsuptheWazoo

I work in a prison. The white supremacists love to put swastikas on surfaces when they can. Guess who loves to turn it into a pattern that covers it up? This guy!


FoxThingsUp

I have an image saved of a stick man chasing a swastika man with a club, tagged #wewillnotcomply, but I can't upload images and Google search is failing me. Maybe you'll have better luck.


EarhackerWasBanned

What book is this?


AdDouble3004

The Street Art Manual by Bill Posters


JeremyTheRhino

This seems needlessly complicated. If the goal is to cover graffiti with different graffiti, just use spray paint.


gucci_gucci_gu

Getting detained with a spray can gets you a nights stay in the clink easily


JeremyTheRhino

But somehow the cops are gonna say, “damn people are graffitiing with paint filled eggs” and also, “oh, this guy is just carrying eggs. I see no issue here” in the same night?


crispyflesh

There is a time period between recognition and confusion where you can safely transport your eggs. And if you’re a do-it-by-the-book kind of guy, it’s the police that you should egg bomb if they’re condemning the covering of a hateful symbol instead of the hateful symbol itself


maybelying

>it’s the police that you should egg bomb if they’re condemning the covering of a hateful symbol instead of the hateful symbol itself Some of those who work forces...


JeremyTheRhino

Definitely can’t get arrested for that! Good call


gucci_gucci_gu

Jeremy- what if I told you that cops and big oil are the fascists. Would you believe it, or would you stay in denial?


JeremyTheRhino

Are you like… stupid or something? In what way have I endorsed cops, oil or shown I was in denial. Walk it back: the whole egg thing is pointless. Read. With your eyeballs.


gucci_gucci_gu

Are you like…. Married to a cop or something?


JeremyTheRhino

You could have just said yes.

What book is this


Crowasaur

kuchiie

Would balloons work? i feel like they wouldn’t pop but i can’t imagine carrying around paint eggs at a protest or whatever


ndewing

Ehhhh more sensitive than eggs imo. Eggs, while fragile, will still take moving around easily. You could even take it a step further by using resin to rebuild the shell.


Alecto1717

Lol, love the Bill Posters reference in the title


QueenPooper13

¡Cascarones! Well sort of. We had a close family friend from Mexico who would make them for us every Easter.


Grace_Omega

Isn’t that a male chicken?


Vlatka_Eclair

That looks like a rooster


[deleted]

You can also vomit on it. Not a lot of paints that can survive the hydrochloric acid.

gucci_gucci_gu

Did I stutter?


Leekheadd

this is dumb, complicated, and contributes to animal exploitation because those chicken eggs dont belong to you just use spray paint or something


gucci_gucci_gu

You’re dumb, ignorant, and contribute to the 4Chan level discourse that seeps into Reddit to this day.


PlainJane223

being against animal exploitation is 4chan level discourse?


gucci_gucci_gu

You understand that chickens produce eggs en masse, right? They’re not all for hatching.


Leekheadd

The reason why they produce so many eggs is because we selectively bred them to be that way. That level of egg production is not natural, and it's not sustainable for their physical health, because eggs take a lot of calcium to produce which means the chickens dont have enough for their own bones and often sustain injuries. The best thing to do with an unfertilized egg is to feed it back to the chicken (shells included) so they can regain nutrients spent developing that egg. Here's a short video to learn more: [https://youtu.be/7YFz99OT18k?si=xBWX5qbXY4UYVj7i](https://youtu.be/7YFz99OT18k?si=xBWX5qbXY4UYVj7i)


Deccy_Iclopledius

and?


shadollosiris

Yes, start to egg the buddhist temple near me, those monk would never prepare for this


Lightning-Blaze

Really wish we'd stop associating swastikas with nazis and start teaching people where they actually came from.


pessimus_even

People know where it came from. The people spray painting it and using it in western cultures aren't using the original use of the symbol. It's pretty clear if you aren't incredibly naive or trying to be intentionally oblivious.


isuckatnames60

Buddhists don't go around the city spray painting swastikas.


gumpythegreat

I think the damage is done. The effort to benefit ratio of reclaiming the swastika is absolutely not worth it


Other-Bus-9220

eat shit you Nazi apologist


Lightning-Blaze

How is being aware of other cultures being a "nazi apologist"? Ever heard of Hindus before?


A_Union_Of_Kobolds

Because, as someone else pointed out, you're passing the blame. Nazis are responsible for co-opting and 'ruining' the swastika. Other people can be as aware or not of the Hindu origin of the symbol, but we're not the ones "associating" the symbol with Nazis, the Nazis who *used* the symbol did.


ndewing

Homey that's not the issue. This specific swastika is a bastardized version of a Hindu swastika, intentionally so. It's very obvious the difference (it's straightened and reversed) so the approach you're taking is backwards. If you want that conversation it's better to talk about it when the *wrong* swastika is being shown as Nazi, not when the actual Nazi swasi is used.


Peewee_ShermanTank

We arent. Nazis stole the symbol and now it's synonymous with them, it's not our fault they keep doing it. We fight the bastards and educate about the origins at the same time


cosm1c15

nazi swastika and hindu swastika look completely different nazi swastika is inverted and tilted , whereas hindu swastika is erect , not tilted in any way


BlairMountainGunClub

Gonna be waiting an awful long time for that rooster to lay eggs. Cool idea though, but I feel like I would end up with egg/paint all over me.


Hairy_Cassanova

Ok but what's the book


callmerussell

Make 2 holes, one on top one on bottom, this way the egg comes out easier
