Did you ever want to be like this guy?
He was cool wasn't he, always getting out of situations with totally random items. Well, here's your chance. I thought of this a long time ago, but I'd always get too lazy to give it a try.
Here's how the game will work:
1) A poster will give a description of a situation that you, as Mcgyver, will have to get out of using intelligence, wit, and since this is PA I will also allow a few unrealistic video game references to beat the situation. At some point the poster will give you random items that you must use to get out of it. While it would be nice for the poster to put some time into it to think of an actual way to get out of the situation in their mind instead of putting random items, I will allow it.
2) The poster will next show, at a minimum, a picture of what the room looks like (can be drawn or taken from the internet). Optional pictures will include clothes that you are wearing or random items you are given to help the readers out rather than using only a verbal description
3) I'll let you guys help me out with how long we should allow the same setup to be discussed until the next one is posted. I was originally thinking a day, but if somebody gives a shitty one (which I'm probably about to give) we might want to move on after a few minutes. Hell, this might be a terrible idea and as a result maybe we should stop right now.
We could even turn this into a whole sort of what happens next thing where after one situation is beat, someone can create the next situation for this hero.
Anyway, I'll give my stupid setup and pictures and stuff.
The evil Dr. BonerRage has trapped you and your two crime fighting friends in a cave at the back of his secret hideout. Your purple-haired friend has been mauled to death by wolverines, and you friend with green hair has a twisted left ankle and separated right shoulder leaving him in no condition to help with this mission. In three hours BonerRage is going to set off bombs in four major capitals around the world killing millions. You must find a way to get out of your captured state and stop him!
The cave walls are granite and are very thick so cutting through them would take forever. The door is made of standard steel, and is 1 inch thick. The door has two locks: one is a basic pin tumbler lock, and the other is a numerical code electronic lock. Both above and below the door 1/4 inch of open space exists. There are two large cement pillars near the middle of the room used for bondage exercises with one set of steel chains still attached to each pillar. Moving on there are four wooden crates (2 feet x 2 feet x 2 feet) put together by oak and 2 inch galvanized nails. The first two contain nothing, the third has sawdust, and the fourth contains straw and a wrench. A stone tablet with Kazakhstani jargon and a fire extinguisher are on the wall farthest away from the door.
In your posession is a lock pick, a Zippo lighter (half full), a leather wallet with $200 in travelers checks and two credit cards, a Verizon cell phone, 3 dimes and a quarter. You are wearing light chain mail, a wifebeater, jeans with a belt, a Rolex, and some L.A. Lites. Your green haired friend has a pocket knife (corkscrew, knife, and screwdriver), a flare gun, and a stop watchHe is wearing a catholic priest's robe and sandals. You may use any body parts from your dead friend that you wish to use.
I will admit I don't even know if it's possible to realistically get out because I spent so much time describing the damn room, but use video game abilities if you can't think of a realistic way to do it. I also tried giving a lot of optional items this time rather than just 4-5 items.
Yes, the picture is from Lufia cause I'm lazy...

Have fun with it!
I wish these stupid image tags worked better.
Final question: Why am I putting this in SE++?!?!?!??

I'm not sure myself.
This is more of a gaia thing, to be honest.
Maybe some of the random objects given to us will be penises?
Need some stuff designed or printed? I can help with that.
This is such an awful thing to say to a person. Granted, you're an awful person.
Your next tattoo should be a random kanji with furigana on the side with a totally different meaning.
I Take off my belt, use the rolex to to attach the travellers checks to it, light it on fire with my zippo, and whip my friend to death with my flame mace.
I then don his priest robes and pray until God saves me.
"Back somersault, pry off the alligator's jaw, use it as a boomerang to take out the sniper. When he falls out the window, the grizzly'll go straight for the easier meal."
Need some stuff designed or printed? I can help with that.

The object of this game is to make wise-ass remarks on just about everything and then shoot some people.
Ready, go!

Every fights a food fight when you're a cannibal.

There are so many instances in life where this advice applies.
