@ai6yr is that the guy who said he’d put the safety on next time? Dumbasses keeping loaded guns in their beds are not destined for long lives.
@swart I'm having difficulty understanding folks who are so afraid they keep a loaded gun under their pillow. FFS people. I wonder how often people kill themselves in that kind of situation.
@swart Not unheard of... 2023:

@feonixrift @ai6yr @swart "Foreign beds, coming over the Canadian border!"
@Lazarou @feonixrift @ai6yr a dangerous situation because everyone knows Canadians are good in bed
@swart @Lazarou @feonixrift WAIT, THIS ONE IS BETTER (From March 9th... how often do Americans do things stupid with a gun?)
