I always imagined they were dragging you around by the handcuffs. I bet it is pretty difficult to drag an armless person around though, not much to hold onto.

Re: The great mysteries of SS13
Why can I draw oxygen from a tank in my pocket but not one in my backpack.
Why is the Syndicate so dead set on destroying this station when it's own crew will do that job for them in just a few hours.
Why does a gravitational singularity move about the station rather than implode the station in around it?
Why does it take more metal to build a computer than it does to build a wall, or a table and 2 chairs?
Why can't I use magboots to give the clown the stomping of his life?
Why does a shotgun fire if someone saws the barrel, the primers are on the other end!
What the fuck is co2?

Backpacks are sealed so that you can go into space without everything flying out as the oxygen inside the backpack is jettisoned, this unfortunately means you cannot connect a hose, as it would break the seal.Davidchan wrote:Why can I draw oxygen from a tank in my pocket but not one in my backpack.
Because they're sending a message to Nanotrasen about setting up stations in that region of spaceWhy is the Syndicate so dead set on destroying this station when it's own crew will do that job for them in just a few hours.
(spoiler: NT doesn't learn)
Frame of reference, and abstraction. The station is the one moving around the gravitational singularity from micro-oscillations in the orbit of the station, but the gravitational singularity doesn't spaghettify the station because its less fun that way.Why does a gravitational singularity move about the station rather than implode the station in around it?
Some metal is lost in making more fiddly, small components such as nuts, bolts, etc. so the computers have more "waste" created then the plain wall that is basically just 4 beams welded together with a sheet of metal on top.Why does it take more metal to build a computer than it does to build a wall, or a table and 2 chairs?
(Why can you make girders without a welder? Space magic)
NT implanted safeties require that magboots be flush with the hull before turning on, since a raised foot before turning on could harm both the user and the station hull as the foot accelerates aggresively towards the floor.Why can't I use magboots to give the clown the stomping of his life?
Because trigger safety is hard to practice while sawing through metal and wood without a vice.Why does a shotgun fire if someone saws the barrel, the primers are on the other end!

But, couldn't they have just stitched on tags that say "This Outerwear Has Pockets" instead of going through all of that hassle? Why didn't they just make the pockets smaller? Who cried about it in the first place? Was it a bunch of SEC babbies? So many more questions.CosmicScientist wrote:Nanotrasen swapped clothes manufacturers to deny that corporation business. When all extra pocket clothes started coming with explosive devices inside and not all crew members knew about the pockets to remove said devices, the Nanotrasen supply department decided foreign policy took a backseat to the office politics of the HR department not understanding it was worth hiring replacements over using the original supplier.Doctor Pork wrote:why did some jackets and all labcoats have pockets but now they dont?
