The Brain

The masks look an awful lot like a pic I saw in some magazine 20-25 years ago. Something about a proposed mask for SWAT guys.

Of course, the joke's on him, because it turns out he lives in Dystopian Future Ground Zero.  Imagine a government that can't even afford a boot to stamp on a human face forever.

Your dystopia and Tim's are clearly not the same.

For one, those army dudes are not riding dinosaurs.  :hmm:

The masks would be even better if painted in garish and scary tones.   :ph34r:

I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Yeah, my first thought on seeing the pic was, "With those masks, they ought to be armed with machetes".
