    It's a lot easier to stretch your money if you're not paying lawyers to dispute cooking times... This reminds me too much of My Cousin Vinny and the grits scene...

    Lots of lawyers work on contingency, file a few papers, hope Kraft settles out of court for $100,000, of which they take 35-60% plus expenses.

    She does have a point. The box only says ready in 3&1/2 minutes. It doesn’t say “the cheese” is ready in 3&1/2 minutes, which would reflect reality. The remaining steps in the recipe add up to way past 3&1/2 minutes. I’m not saying it’s a grand and noble cause but she is pointing out a misleading claim by the marketers that put that claim on the box.

    What if you had no arms to stir the cheese..... 🤔

    It's bullshīt. I cook those noodles for 3 minutes and they're done. The 3.5 minutes is the suggested cooking time.

    He looks like he would do something like that.

    I can't think of a better reason to throw chicken wings at her. I'm not even from Florida. What do you think @Usaf06 or @Diver43

    Not sure, I kind of like wings. That would be a waste.

    They must've gotten the gun specs from Wikipedia. It does not fire at 6k rpm. Still substantial but not 6k. Kudos to the Florida man. He must have quite the budget for maintenance. This gun is a finicky diva.

    Actually when I worked on them high fire rate was 6000 rounds a minute, thats 1000 rpm. However it was not possible to get one.

    I used rpm for rounds per minute. I've only ever come across the 4k per minute even with optimized barrels. Did air temp at high altitude play a factor with rate of fire?
    Edit: My experience comes from the CIWS. Sea level only, lol. At 4k a hot gun will happen quickly. I can only imagine at 6k

    I remember the tracers at night looked like a searchlight coming down from our air support and the sound was a big ripping tear. What ever it hit it was just bloody chunks of meat, and dirt.

    They don't usually fire very long bursts, just stroking the trigger, not holding it down. At least that's my experience with aircraft, mainly in air to air situations.

    Right on. We usually do 100 rd burst with PAC fires and live action is not much longer.

    Yep. Because I have a juvenile mind, a very loud, long fart.
