[i]John Dies at the End[/i] is not quite a horror movie. It's not quite a comedy. It has elements of both, but it is most certainly a strange film. That is the best way, I feel, to describe it. It tries to place itself firmly in the same family as [i]Naked Lunch[/i], [i]Donnie Darko[/i], and [i]Being John Malkovich[/i].

And yes, it's on Netflix.

I have been meaning to see [i]John Dies at the End[/i], but I have yet to get around to it. But Netflix you say...

So I've been trying to think of all different things one could use as a viable boffer weapon (without getting slapped by a trout of shame), to help get people's ideas flowing.

Here's the preliminary list I have (including things other people have mentioned).
[u]
One-Handed Long[/u]
Shovel
Baseball Bat
Umbrella
Guitar
Broom
Crow Bar
Tire Iron (single spoke)
A Pipe
Golf Club (depending on it's length)
Cane
Police Baton

[u]Two Handed/Staff[/u]
Hockey Stick
Walking Stick
Golf Club (depending on it's length)

[u]Short/Small[/u]
Tire Iron (4 Spoke)
Flashlight
Tennis Racket
Wrench
Knife
Bottle

[u]Throwing Weapons[/u]
Bottle/ Broken Bottle
Beakers
Swiss Army Knife
Knives

If you have any other ideas, feel free to contribute.
I figured since I've had a bit of a hard time trying to figure out what I want to use as a modern weapon, I'm sure there are others who are too.

[u]One hander's[/u]
Antique kitchen Cleavers
Sledge Hammers (claw, ball tine,)
2x4's
Pick Axes
Pry Bars (basic crowbar without the curve to it)

[u]Two Hander's [/u]
Croquet Mallet
Cricket Bat
Full length Broom (Avoid long push brooms)
Most Garden tools with long handles
Metal Re-bar

[u]Short/Small[/u]
Sawed off bat
Broken broom handle
nyn-x Yellow Pages (7 out of 10 hard cases agree this is a weapon)

[u]Throwing Weapons[/u]
Lawn Bowling Balls
Lawn Darts (still confused if they are legal in RL or not)

That is what I got. And I admit some of them are reiterations of those already posted.

I can actually make that using the same design I used for the Boffernomicon.
