I had to ride with a customer home and bring his vehicle back to work so we could work on it
he drove, I was in the passenger seat, he's playing some super creepy violin music, and suddenly I feel like I'm in the car with Hannibal Lecter.
He's humming, moving his hand ever so slightly to the music. We're driving down a winding country road. The forest begins to get dense and dark.
But we're nowhere near our destination. I'm gripping the arm rest until my fingernails leave indents in the leather, all of the hairs are standing on the back of my neck and I'm beginning to hyperventilate. The trees aren't getting any lighter, eventually there's only slight rays of sun shining through the tiny spaces between leaves.
Then we pull into his driveway. He unbuckles his belt, turns to me.
He smiles wickedly and says "So I guess you'll call me when it's ready?" I say yes.
He gets out, hobbles up the stone walk to his house and I scramble to get into the driver's seat, shitting myself and chastising myself the whole way back.

We don't have it written into our constitution to be able to bear arms or whatever it says.

It's BARE arms.
It's just about tank tops.

I was making a joke saying you were a crap American you know.
I just thought I'd point that out before we go any further.

I know how to clean, load and shoot a gun.
I just don't own one.

Then you are a very good American and should get a badge or something saying so.

How fucking anal is that?
You know how to clean a gun! Who cares how clean your gun is? It's the pointing bits of metal that whizz out of it and kill you that impress people, not whether it's shiny or not.

Bloody women and their cleaning obsession.
