I know you guys have run into this.
You are having a casual conversation with somebody, and for whatever reason they decide to waste your time by telling you a series of lies strung together into a Story about a gun or hunting.
I've heard some Doozeys.
Sometimes, it's a story about a gun that never existed. The "I used to have a plastic Glock that would go through the airport security" is an example.
Sometimes, it's a story about a long shot or incredible accuracy, or both. The "I get half inch groups at 200 yards with my iron sighted .22" is typical of these. Also, there's the "I shot a deer from a half mile away" stories.
Other times, it's a bad guy combat story. The liar will spin a yarn about anything from poachers to hit men, going into great detail about all the guns, tricks, and neato skeeto things he did to win the fight.
These guys make me sick.
I can't claim to be the most informed, or the best shot, or anything like that...
But I know enough about guns to catch on to the lie pretty early in the game.
And I'm insulted when these liars think I'm stupid enough to believe their ignorant childish story.
So here's the poll question.
What do you do when these Bozos try to waste your time by bending your ear with one of these stupid made up stories?
I want to be rude, and tell them to take their stupid story somewhere else, but I usually don't.
The reason why I don't is because it only wastes MORE of my time when they go through a whole other set of lies trying to convince me that the first set of lies was true.
I usually just let them tell their lies, and say "Wow!" and leave as soon as possible.
So, what do you guys do?
