“But you’re gay… why do you like sailing and WWE?”

“Well, I feel like both of those are pretty gay considering the reputation the Navy has and WWE being all sweaty men.”

“EXPLAIN FIREARMS THEN.”

“Shooty go pew.”

“WHAT ARE YOU?!”

“Hungry.”

Based off of a real conversation I’ve had.

    Not gay myself, but uh, honestly most firing ranges and shooty shoot drill courses are also usually chalk full of sweaty men.

    … who are… often enjoying the experience a biiiit too enthusiastically.

    But yeah… I’ve been friends with a good number of gay dudes (one later transitioned), and … they are some of the most non flamboyant, non dramatic people I’ve ever known.

    I remember back in the early 2010’s, a good number of other people I knew just literally not believing me when them being gay would come up in conversation… whole lotta people just error out, does not compute, ‘they’re not gay, they’re normal!’.

    ‘They are gay, and they are normal.’

    -blank stare-

    Hooray for growing up with a bunch of ignorant white trash hicks.

      I mean… one of my fantasies is getting railed at a firing range so I can’t say I’m surprised.

      Same here… Same here…
