Yuppie came in the shop today....

[Caster]

God, I sound like Al Bundy. You know "a fat woman came in the shoe store today...."

Well this BMW driving goober with his nice clothes, metrosexual attitude and three little fairies for sons came in. I was putting a tire back on the car when one of the little kids ran back to his daddy and says "daddy, daddy, that man has a gun!!!". The man told the kids "Thats called an impact wrench, it looks like a gun but it only works on cars. It's perfectly safe". To which the kid replies, "No daddy, he has a REAL gun".
The man the asked me(quite appalled ) " Sir, wha, wha, why uhhhh, Do you have a gun?".

I says "Yeah, don't you?"
He tells me "NO! I don't allow my family anywhere near firearms."
I told him " Huh, well how does that keep your family safe from someone who don't give a ratz azz what you believe in? You know, they call them criminals for a reason, they don't care about laws, right or wrong. You think a criminal will wait around while you call the cops and then wait a little while longer till they get here? What you THINK means nothing, you chose to have a family and you're charged with their safety. Can you honestly tell me youre doing everything to provide it?"


...he probably won't be a repeat customer. Oh-frickin-well.

It is sad people. Sad. You ain't gotta be a gun nut like us. I ain't big fan of driving nails but I own a hammer. I hate diggin ditches but I got a shovel. It's just a tool you hope you don't have to use but it sure sucks when you ain't got one.....and you're on the spot, in need of one. Why is that hard to understand? Where does this sense of "Avoidance will make me safe" come from? These are the people who will hide in the bathroom or basement when a volcano erupts. Yeah, duck and cover! Idiots.

Rant over.

I generally use the line 'well if the SHTF I hope you have a pretty wife as barter.' Does tend to piss folks off but.... 

[Guest Darth Maul]

You get an online standing ovation.

[BigK]

something about this story doesn't sound very believable...this guy actually knew what an impact wrench is?

 

:rofl:

Wife probably has a nut clamp at home...

[Wingshooter]

Lol, he probably has that kid signed up for therapy now since he saw a "real" gun. Hopefully the dad will think about what you told him. It's amazing the fantasy land these libs live in.

[MarkInNashville]

HEY! I drive a BMW... hope you used the center cap wrench, I lost 3 center caps after a visit to Discount Tire (another case of someone who is smarter then the tools he uses, or doesn't use - as in the above case).

[jcoosi]

So he doesnt allow his family near firearms but you still fixed his car. I bet they were on edge while they were waiting. Cause we all know how guns jump out of holsters and run up to people and go off.

Also funny how his kid knew what a real gun looked like and they were not allowed around them.

A yuppie opened the door of his BMW, when suddenly a car came along and hit the door, ripping it off completely. When the police arrived at the scene, the yuppie was complaining bitterly about the damage to his precious BMW.
"Officer, look what they've done to my Beeeeemer!!!", he whined.
"You yuppies are so materialistic, you make me sick!!!", retorted the officer. "You're so worried about your stupid BMW, that you didn't even notice that your left arm was ripped off!!!"
"Oh my gaaawd...," replied the yuppie, finally noticing the bloody left shoulder where his arm once was,
"Where's my Rolex?!!!!!"

Well said, Caster.

[Slpeod]

He was just another sheep, blind to the true nature of man.

I hate diggin ditches but I got a shovel. It's just a tool you hope you don't have to use but it sure sucks when you ain't got one.....and you're on the spot, in need of one.

Good analogy. I'm going to use that one next time I have to try to talk sense to an anti-gun person.

[RED333]

I know Caster, went to his shop this past weekend, I can see this in my mind and am getting a good laugh, Good Going Caster. :usa: :up: :rock:

[Mike.357]

I hate shovels about as much as anything.

 

But when you gotta dig a hole one comes in handy.

[SALK]

If you were closer, I would bring you my business and gladly talk about the impact wrench in the holster. ;) sheep!!

[NoBanStan]

Tell him the impact wrench is in your pants, the gun is on your hip. Both of which could take care of his wife. :D

[Guest 6.8 AR]

I can see you saying all that, Caster. :D

[Caster]

I can see you saying all that, Caster. :D

Hey wait! You drive a Beemer too! LOL!!!

[gjohnsoniv]

I am really tempted to drive up there and act like one of those yuppies. Then, and only then, will I tell you that I am actually from TGO.

[Guest Emtdaddy1980]

Are you in chattanooga by any chance? I'd gladly give you my buisness

:rofl:

 

This was my first thought as well.

[Mike.357]

Erik, go change your headlight fluid  ;)

[Erik88]

It was exhaust bearings Mike. Get it right... :cool:

[SALK]

Both of u are wrong, it was the blinker fluid!

[Guest Averhoeven]

Ugh, that light flashes on every time I try to turn, it's absurd. I'm just too lazy to get it looked at.
