Can you make a critical shot when you have a concussion?

It wasn't so much the fighting as it was whaking our way through the thick bush...
Over Macho Grande? I don't think I'll ever be over Macho Grande...

Well, that settles it. Can't argue with a man with a t-shirt.
Wait wait wait- did the sheep shagger just quote effing AIRPLANE? Holy crap, that's full of awesome. Well played.
Over Macho Grande? I'll never get over Macho Grande.

He did, but remember in New Zealand that film is considered mandatory aeronautical training material.
Except they had to delete the scene where the woman blows up the autopilot. Authorities can't have New Zealand men believing they can have sex with women. That would be...unnatural.

I don't understand what you're trying to get at. I aced that course.
Surely you can't be serious?
One of my favorite movies...who in here has not wanted to knock out some Hare Krishnas?
ah, it's only a flesh wound... c'mere and fight y'cowardly bastard...
Macho Grande... yeah, that was the first time we met... it was a rough one... we were down to just 2 knives...
and don't call me Shirley, you friggin sheepshaggin wanker...
My experience with a concussion:
After an explosive breach entered a door that, unknown to me, led to the landing of a staircase going down. Totally missed the inch or two high ledge before the staircase, and took two steps in. Next thing I remember a team mate is shaking me awake. Was out for less than a minute, but the fall snapped my nods mount and cracked the radio battery on the back of my helmet I used for a counterweight (hit the opposite wall on the stair case on the way down). Mates said I looked like a wreck hobbling up the hill with blood coming from my nose and mouth (fall bruised my right hip). Got helped the rest of the way up the hill to our strong point where I felt like throwing up for an hour or so and had a massive head ache. Took 8mg Zofran and 1000mg Tylenol then got back into it. Maybe not a critical shot like pinging someone in the head at distance, but was able to put warning shots a meter off of a target at 900 meters an hour or so after.
In short, life sucks after a hit to the head, but you can still do stuff. Drugs were pretty important in that endeavor as well.
