dingos and boomerangs
why in the world did you have a need to wikipedia boomerangs?
i was talking to an australian coworker
and wanted to know throwing technique
specifically if/how it is used to kill dingos
hahahaha
can you kill a dingo w/ a boomerang?
yes
can't you theoretically just punch a dingo right in the face?
you and punching THINGS in the face
you COULD just run it over though
see, i'm sayin!
there are many, less skillful, more direct ways to take down a dingo
the skill is the important bit though
if i could hunt by playing guitar hero
i would do it
and it would be more interesting than a shot in the face imho
ok well skill is cool
but the boomerang is more for comedic effect, i feel
if you could make a dingo explode by finishing a song in expert, i approve
