My wife's brother was visiting back in October and she had to work on Saturday so we went to the range down at Quail Creek. We were the only ones on the pistol range for a while when these two gentlemen came over, one middle-age and the other a bit older. After posting targets the older gentleman started firing at his target (a bit bigger than a dinner plate, distance was seven yards). Based on general comments I gathered he was shooting the younger man's pistols, and after a few shots I heard the younger of the two say, what I assume were words of encouragement for poor marksmanship, "That's okay, as long as you shoot the other guy first that's what's important. Back in the day people used to die of gonorrhea from their gunshot wounds."
I immediately stopped what I was doing and looked at my brother-in-law, who gave me an equal look of confusion, horror, and amusement.
Really dude? Really? Gonorrhea? I understand he probably meant "gangrene", but still...
You can't make this stuff up...
