Tim is an enigma. It's all or nothing. Either he drops absolute zingers like a "Fuck Butt Pointe" and "The Real Spoopies"... or he is sort of incoherent and rambling... and it falls kinda flat. That said, I do like him as a rotating 3rd/4th banana... but I like all the 3rd/4th bananas... even Josh has his moments.... they all have their charms. But now that I'm mentally working through the list of supporting cast members / very special guests, I would like to see a return of Freddie Williams... he was really good in his handful of appearances.

[@control_the_pet_population]

@ToubleToby He is growing on me as time rolls along... although he went full incoherent on last years Xmas episode, and that's when he loses me. That said, you bring up an interesting point about "trying to be like the rest of the guys" ... And I think that's what I liked the most about Freddie Williams. I realize he is a very accomplished comic artist, but on the RLM panels, he comes across as the closest thing they've had to an everyman. Somebody who isn't terribly versed in cinema but knows enough pop culture to hold his own. He can be funny and enjoyable to listen to.. but never comes across as trying too hard to be a comedian.

High power rounds can definitely do damage even through a vest. You're just looking at broken ribs and collapsed lungs vs shredded organs. I've heard of people still dying even without the round penetrating. It's not something to play around with, that's why he had the phonebook behind the vest even with the (presumably) low powered cartridges he was using. It's like taking a sledgehammer to the chest

[@devilmikey00]

I wouldn't really call it wussing out, the agency chief was asking him to horribly injure himself and he refused. Just because it stops the penetration doesn't mean it still can't cause some pretty bad injuries. Taking a .357 point blank to the chest with body armor probably would have sent him to the hospital or might have still killed him.
