Yeah guns in America beyond like, a hunting rifle, are really just for nutjobs, murderers, and murderers (cops).

I'd argue that having a shotgun for, like, trap and skeet shooting is fairly reasonable or one of those super weird target shooting .22s, but otherwise yeah kinda.

All right. It's Saturday night; I have no date, a two-liter bottle of Shasta and my all-Rush mix-tape... Let's rock.

22s are fun to shoot, but so are pump action BB guns, and like recurve bows are pretty fun too. idk what the point of a mega gun is unless you really wanna kill ppl

I went to camp

Yeah definitely, by "like a hunting rifle" I meant in purpose. Hunting and target shooting, etc.

Shooting a 12-gauge is pretty fun tbh. The first time I shot one I didn't hold it tight enough against my shoulder and ended up with the biggest bruise I've ever had in my life

Same, my dad took me to shoot skeet when I was, like, 11 and I didn't seat it correctly. I, uh, didn't move that arm much for a couple days.

10/22s etc are fun to shoot but they can barely even be considered firearms lol.

Typically people barely affording rent are not super MAH PROPERTY, CASTLE DOCTRINE folks and also guns are loving expensive as poo poo. All that 2nd Amendment poo poo has nothing to do with arming poor folk (unless and except their armament serves the interest of the wealthy).

Nah guns are cheap unless you're going for something dumb. Got my g21 for 75$, its the ammo that's expensive.

I figure someone somewhere has to have tried to castle doctorine their landlord.

noony noony noony nooooooo
Here's my one neat trick to get my last security deposit back: after living in a tiny, old, but nicely cheap apartment for many years, as had all seven of my neighbors, my landlord decided to "retire." He sold it to a couple of yuppies who've been steadily buying up properties and renovicting people. Which, of course, they did to everyone in the building, several of whom were old and on fixed incomes. The rear end in a top hat husband even had the gall to apologize to me for kicking me out explaining regretfully that you can't renovate (read: repaint, stuff a washer/dryer into the pantry, and jack up the rent 3x) if somebody's already living in your tiny shotgun apartment, so, :(. The one thing I can say about them is that they paid me my full deposit back promptly, so I guess I only kind of wish I'd taken a poo poo in the oven.

Chairman Mao maybe did some things wrong, but not when it came to landlords.

Pretty hosed up to have a 13 year old landlord

Personally, I think it's problematic that a sitting Senator has a racial slur for a last name.



i have a lovely roommate who didn't want to put my name on the lease because she didn't want me to worry about the bond (which i would be fine with paying my share -- in australia it's required)
and when i demanded that i at least get a written agreement and proof of my residency and finalization of my rent signed by her and my landlord, they gaslit me as a crazy until they relented and signed the agreement i drafted

guess it's silly for me to want legal protection because she "didn't have this issue with her other flatmates!" as if it's my fault they're suckers :shrug:
