SpudVT

We needed to test out our new potato gun. We figured this was the only logical way. We like the VT220, but this one was looking at us funny. We don't like it when electronics give us attitude.

	100psi, please.
	The weapon. Just built.
	The target. Gave us attitude.
	The projectile. Tasty with butter.
	The range.
	The aim.
	WHAP! We have impact.
	I smell potato.

FAQ

Q: What happened between the 6th and 7th pictures?
A: We fired a potato.

Q: Why didn't you get a picture of it firing?
A: The potato moves fast. Real fast. Close to Mach 1, as we figure it. We might someday use strobes to get a picture of it.

Q: How could you do such a thing?! Was that a working VT220?
A: Probably. We didn't bother testing it. We have a metric buttload of VTs sitting around.

Q: Isn't that dangerous?
A: Not if you don't stand in front of the potato. Monitors implode.

Q: Doesn't destroying a monitor release harmful chemicals into the environment?
A: Probably.

Q: Didn't you have anything better to do?
A: Yes. We go to MIT. The work is hard. We like to take breaks.
