So 2 out of 2 times the guy with two guns lost...

[–] kryptonianCodeMonkey@lemmy.world 34 points 2 months ago

I like to think the reason the robbed guy didn't shoot the robber initially was because the robber was less armed than him and it wouldn't have been fair. When he stole his first gun, he must've thought "ohhhh, big mistake".

I'm imagining that his wife will never hear the end of it. "See honey, and you said I didn't need to carry two guns around all the time. Well look who was right about that."

That must be one of the if not THE most American headline out there!

Only a good guy with 2 guns can stop a bad guy who's stolen their gun!

[–] Malgas@beehaw.org 3 points 2 months ago

It's guns all the way down.

This was the Disarmed status but the same principle applies

Bro bought the debuff remover item.

[–] Landless2029@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago

Correct. I'm just stating the logic/mindset of carrying two.

Reminds me of a passage from my favorite Discworld book, Night Watch.

“I didn’t think you was stupid, Mister Vimes…”

“What?” said Vimes, looking down suddenly. Carcer was smiling cheerfully.

“I said I didn’t think you was stupid, Mister Vimes. I know a clever copper like you’d think I’d got two knives.”

“Yeah, right,” said Vimes. He could feel his hair trying to stand on end. Little blue caterpillars of light were crackling over the ironwork of the dome, and even over his armour.

“Mister Vimes?”

“What?” Vimes snapped. Smoke was rising from the weathercock’s bearings.

“I got three knives, Mister Vimes,” said Carcer, bringing his arm up.

The lightning struck.

That headline made me feel dumb for a minute because I kept having to reread it. But I love it

That’s some Yosemite Sam vs Bugs Bunny shit right there

Next time he needs a gun more in case he'll be robbed of both of them.

Have you ever fired your gun in the air and yelled, ‘Arrrghhh!

[–] bstix@feddit.dk 11 points 2 months ago (1 children)

What's the child game called where you put one hand on the table and the other person puts their hand on top and then with the other hands and then pull out the first hand again?

[–] BreadOven@lemmy.world 10 points 2 months ago

I see you've played knify-spoony before.

[–] bstix@feddit.dk 5 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Good suggestion. No one else on the entire internet has ever used that combination of letters.

[–] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

Huh. I keep doing that.

[–] MeDuViNoX@sh.itjust.works 11 points 2 months ago

Got my gun a gun, so it won't be lonely. 🤠

[–] Feathercrown@lemmy.world 10 points 2 months ago

MERICA FUCK YEAH

[–] Sam_Bass@lemmy.world 7 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Just like driving a car you dont go without a spare

[–] tektite@slrpnk.net 12 points 2 months ago (2 children)

Should the spare car fit inside the first car or be towed behind?

[–] HootinNHollerin@lemmy.world 6 points 2 months ago

Yo Dawg Heard you like cars

[–] Sam_Bass@lemmy.world 6 points 2 months ago

Depends. Newer model suvs are probably big enough to hold a nissan leaf

[–] trslim@pawb.social 3 points 2 months ago

He didnt want that pentagon thief getting away with his PaP weapon.
