I was at my first gun show with an older friend who knew guns better than I did who I was following around to keep me from making any stupid decisions.

There's a table with a sign for "Constitutional Carry," where they don't think you should need a special license to concealed carry a handgun.

My friend walks up to these two guys at the table, and says "Hey, just so you know, I hope you guys fail."

The younger of the two kind of bristles, but the older one, a dude with a long white beard, says "Oh, why?"

My friend says "Because I worked in a gun shop for fifteen years, and I helped fill out more concealed carry applications than I can count and..." at this point she gestures around at the huge room behind us, "I wouldn't trust 95% of the people in this room with any gun at all."

And the old dude behind the table smiles and nods his head and says "Yeah, that's a fair point."

So anyway, that's the day I bought a Ruger GP-100 in 357 Magnum.

“Wonderwall” is a song that’s very easy to learn on guitar so the meme is that bad guitar players will bust out a guitar and subject you to their bad rendition of the song at inappropriate times when nobody asked for a performance.

15 years ago me and a buddy were shooting pool in a local bar, maybe a dozen total people in there. Some I finished taking guitar lessons last month douche was playing acoustic in there and it's the same list of basic songs you'd expect. Partway through his set he was giving the usual platitudes, suggesting tips and saying we're a great crowd, then says "So anybody wanna hear Your Body is a Wonderland?"

At the same time we both casually said No.

He was some college age kid in jeans, a white v-neck tshirt and a Glock on his belt....in a bar.

Yeah, you unfortunately have to manage your expectations here

It's better than reddit, but still mostly 'Murican, and hence pretty stupid and with a warped sense of what constitutes freedom
