I don't think they have a name in the UK, so I'd like to suggest "Twat Markers."

Death Panel Czar posted:There was that one time Trump's evil Penn Jillette clone talked with Recoil magazine about his EDC. I actually have that same gun. The S&W 9mm. Mine is even stupider than that one too, being a fake carbon fiber finish. I like the way it looks and it only ever comes out at the range. I don't carry anything other than a folding knife and a keychain flashlight on me. I do however have a bag with some first aid poo poo, a firestarter, rope, tools and a change of clothes in my car. Be prepared is what my inner boyscout says. I'm guilty of thinking some of this poo poo is cool though. Not cool enough that I'd festoon myself with tactical hatchets and weird knives and poo poo. Some of it would be neat to have camping or just to look cool at the range. I dunno. Guess I got a little of the tacticool douchery in me.

The intended purpose of EDC is that you'll be prepared for any sudden disastrous event that might occur in your daily life. Car crashes, serious work accidents, medical emergencies, natural disasters that catch you away from home, or being at the scene of a crime. Gorka's is so dumb because he's clearly just preparing for a gunfight. He doesn't have any tools except a knife and lighter and no medical supplies except for a combat tourniquet that he's definitely only planning on using on himself if he gets shot in the arm by a terrorist. If someone at the office fell off a ladder or a car drove up onto the sidewalk and ran a bunch of people over, his EDC is totally useless.

I'd say a Leatherman Rebar or Wave since the blades and tools are bigger. I bought a Rebar for $50 and it almost completely replaced every non-specialized and non-power tool for virtually every task I had to do. Not great for self-defense, but that's what a proper weapon is for.

There was this kid in my neighborhood who was kinda like Eric Cartman. Let's call him Eric C. Eric C. once was at my neighborhood friend's house and found an athletic cup and held it up to his face and was like "Can I put this on my face?" and nobody told Eric C. what it was until after he did it.

So, question, how many work places are okay with their employees to come into work strapped?

twistedmentat posted:So, question, how many work places are okay with their employees to come into work strapped? I couldn't think of an effective strap-on joke in relation to the "rear end murderer" thing. It's completely dependent on your environment. Generally any gun store or rental range will have employees openly carrying handguns to discourage anyone from trying to make off with a gun or load it up while examining it. I've been given permission to bring one to work if there's a serious concern about the office's safety because we've had some extremely crazy customers go utterly ballistic and actually make physical threats, and we're far enough back in a plaza off a highway (with a full glass front that anyone with a weapon could break) that no cop would ever arrive in time if some lunatic showed up with a tire iron or something.

Office workers and computer janitors with an EDC are ridiculous to me. I have a job where it wouldn't be out of place for me to carry but I just don't. If I get shot then whatever.

I think if I worked in an office and Trey is always walking around with his Sig 229 on his hip I'd have a talk with HR. I think the infamous EDC Nerd picture was a janitor or IT guy at NASA. A lot of them are just regular office workers; I'd probably argue that most of them are office workers because that's really the only job where you can carry a bunch of poo poo in your pockets without worrying about anything falling out, getting dirty, or injuring you if you fall on it (one of the reasons you may not want to carry a gun at the back of your hip is so you don't bruise your spine if you fall backwards). The two most useful items if you want absolutely minimal EDC are probably a Leatherman or similar solid multitool and the best pocket first aid kit you can carry. I've had plenty of days where I've needed a tool in the office for stuff like assembling and disassembling furniture or electronics, and if someone gets seriously injured the best knowledge and equipment you can have is probably for controlling bleeding.
