Full Metal Burka
Reflects the wearer's parental or spousal unit's devotion to their culture. | |
The aluminium plated sheath completely covers the occupant from head to toe as a truncated cone, ensuring no physical contact with the outside world, or vice versa: a transcoder disguises the voice, the turreted optics ensure an undistracted focus on the task at hand, and it sports a handy manipulator
arm or two for picking out produce, and carrying home same with little effort.
The inability to take steep grades or stairs is inconsequential, as there is no need to rise above one's station.

But it does have a slight drawback if you see a Doctor. |

Aside to idea, but in reference to Daleks. "His final modification was to remove their ability to feel pity, compassion, or remorse. The Daleks soon came to view themselves as the supreme race in the universe and began a conquest of universal domination and extermination. Various storylines portray them as having had every emotion removed except hate, leaving them with a desire to purge the universe of all non-Dalek life" Does this not remind you anything going on in the world at the moment? |

Yes, Jeb Bush running for the Republican nomination ? |
|
| |
No - that would be the movie The Son of Dumb and Dumber
3. |
|
| |
Oh ... we thought it would be The Madness of George III .... |
|
| |
Not exactly. The lift charge fires, the burkha and its contents rise from the ground on a parabolic trajectory, reach a zenith where (for a period of time delta-t where delta-t -> 0) it is momentarily at zero vertical speed, then descends under gravity, until it reaches that happy equilibrium with air resistance termed "terminal velocity" ... |
|
| |
In that case, can it have a pickelhaubesque point on
the top, so that it sticks into the ground on landing,
with a satisfying bdoyoyoyng? |

We think that would be essential to obtain the full enjoyment available from the device. |
|
| |
it might sharpen up your thinking. |
|
| |
its a bit like a tank then? |
|

Loose-fit suit of armour?
I also have a feeling that this is reaching for the
wrong pun. 'Full metal jacket' refers to a bullet, not
body-armour. I may be wrong, but it makes the idea
feel weird to me, like a painting askew on a wall. |
|
| |
Suppose you had a fitting upper-body garment, made entirely of metal? Why would it be wrong to call it a full metal jacket? |
|
| |
You know, we're missing a trick here. If you're
going
to be wearing a thin metal shell, it would make
sense
to do a little panel-beating and create a steel
drum.
I'm pretty sure there are some burka-wearers who
could do with a little loosening up, and a touch of
Jamaica might hit the spot. Yeah mon. |
|
| |
Given the area of metal, we ought to be able to
get a
good two-and-a-half octaves out of a well-built
person. |
|
| |
There must be a market for tinfoil hat wearers amongst female Muslims somewhere. |
|
| |
For those who recline: The full metal Barcalounger. |
