Cinder , noun - a small piece of partly burned coal or wood that has stopped giving off flames but still has combustible matter in it . Synonyms: ashes, ash, ember, clinker ,charcoal ,slag. My FAVORITE synonym slag. Slag , stony waste matter separated from metals during the smelting or refining ore. Who named this?

Rudolph"Who named this?"
The real question: Who needs this?

NarqIf they allowed something stupid like "need" to enter into the equation, they'd be out of business faster than you could say "$50 Artisanal 'Fluffy Waffle' keycap". After all, this is Drop (formerly Massdrop™, RIP never 4get). These people sell carbon fiber combs. I just saw a fucking ghillie suit on the front page. Their keycap base sets cost more than most mechanical keyboards, and they're selling a $130 watch winder for people who either can't be bothered (or simply lack the necessary wrist strength required) to wind their own $3600 "Jaquet Dros Grande Automatic" watches. They sell trinkets for oversized, childless children with too much money and too little sense.. but these trinkets occasionally overlap with things regular adult humans would want.
Personally, I'm waiting for the samurai swords. 100% need.

Narq"Shipping usually takes around 7-10 days"
You can't seriously believe I'd wait that long to look this cool.

bearstampedeThis is actually an excellent way to monitor local police response times , and maybe some first hand testing of current non lethals ! Note: you may want to confirm in advance local law enforcement employ non lethal devices.

RudolphI live in Berkeley, so all the police have lethals--they're just not allowed to use them without a lynch mob forming. Based purely on the crazy shit I see on a nightly basis* while walking home from work, my guess is they'd make the top five in the nation for "proficiency in applying non-lethal options". A guy carrying a sheathed samurai sword? Assuming there were no roving bands of laptop thieving hood rats or homeless people heaving handfuls of their own excrement at passersby in the immediate vicinity, I MIGHT get a tazed a little bit. We're not even allowed to have batons here, it's insane (p.s. if you know where I might procure one for strictly educational purposes, feel free to let me know).
*Tonight I saw I.) a very scared looking student run across a busy intersection to escape a homeless man who was chasing him with a bull terrier while shouting racial epithet at him, II.) 2 asset protection guys wrestle an African guy into their back room after he attempted to steal whole-ass bags of whatever you get at Target, and III.) had a 10 minute conversation with a girl who works at the Goodwill across the street from where I work, specifically regarding the frequency with which homeless people apparently take clothes into the dressing room, change into them, and then take a shit on the floor (occasionally they get a polite floor-shitter who aims for the clothes they plan to leave behind).
