Between black coffee, and shiftn' gears
Preface: I admit being a dumb Southern Boy, but I am not stupid.

Lady bought herself a new NAA Mini Revolver, 1 1/8" and Beretta Bobcat 21A, in .22 caliber.

She has nice guns, nice CCW guns, just she has always wanted these, and after saving up, getting a bonus, and other income perks, decided to treat herself.

They are soooo Cute!
- she says

They are really handsome, indeed ! I said.

No. They are sooooo Cute!



So could I get some help on how these two guns are Handsome!

So far I have the lady owner, and 3 ladies, all saying soooo Cute! and throwing chocolate wrappers, at me.

Even the danged male Black Lab is taking their side...traitor...they bribed him, I know they did...

Steve, you disagreed with a lady?

Umm, yeah!

Never said I was smart now did I?


A little help here please.
 
LOL my girl in my local gunshop when being handed a Bushmaster Mforgery "Oh wow, that's cute!". She also refers to my 86' Monte Carlo, my motorcycle, and myself as cute. The way I look at it as long as she likes guns, hot rods,motorcycles, and me she can get away with the cute comments. I have to admit it still makes me cringe. :scrutiny:
 
You're messed, man.

If you're wrong, you're wrong.
If you're right, you're wrong.
If you're right, and they're wrong, you're wrong.

Just ignore it and hope it goes away.
 
4 replies and no help - yet

Ummm
Maybe... If I mention I had some Federal shot ctgs , you know the all brass ones with the metal crimped ends.

See, I personally like these better than the CCI shot ctg with the blue tips.

Now these Federal crimped jobbies are Neat - I said.

But they are not Cute she says

Neat !

Not Cute though

<dawg barks, wrappers get tossed again>

Now that exchange has got to get someone to help me out with Handsome and Neat.

*help*
 
Mmm Sorry Bro...

Steve,

You are out numbered...but a wise man can turn this to his advantage.....my wife thinks the Dan Wesson CBOB is cute too......lemme see.....a new .410 for the boy....and nice stainless bobtail for his daddy.....but only cause it's cute. I think she digs the combo of stainless and bobtail. She can call it whatever she likes as long as I can have one...:evil:
 
If a man is carrying his NAA mini-revolver and his Beretta Bobcat while walking alone in the woods, and he says they are "handsome" and "neat" while there is no-one there to hear him and say they are "cute," is he still wrong? :evil:

Sorry.
 
Well of course they're cute. They're tiny and unique: what else would they be other than cute? :D :evil:
 
Steve, my wife thinks my NAA mini is "sooooo cute!" :rolleyes:

I've read a lot of you "wisdoms" in the past, You should understand this... :scrutiny:
 
sm, I don't know what to tell you. My wife hates "cute" guns. Well, with one exception. I've received a mandate from on high to build a Hello Kitty AR. Gee, I can't wait to start that project. But! That aside, she likes firearms that shoot as mean and ugly as they look. She calls my 9mm a pea shooter. She says the .45 is "almost respectable." She carries an "ugly pea shooter" herself, because her .44 Mag isn't practical to conceal. (and yes, she can shoot that thing. Well.)

She hates "cute." This should be readily apparent from who she married.

Lucky me.

But I feel your pain, really I do.

:D
 
Not cute - elegant!

One would be hard pressed to call a Beretta Bobcat "badass", though...

BTW Why is it that "dumb Southern boys" tend to run circles around my educated Northeastern intellectual friends?
 
Update!

Because you folks ain't worth a flip at helping a fella out when he asks! *grin*

Options:
1.
Page , springmom, Barbara, Tamara, Sandy Ashcraft, and other ladies and beg, grovel, whine, *ack* *cough* *I'm sick* and other dumb Southern Boys strategy and tactics, to get these most wonderful ladies to take my side and all.


2.
Faster horses, younger women, older whiskey and more money.


3.
Blackmail, Bribery, and Cheating will outdo youth and skill any day of the week.

"I gotta see a man about a dawg" -I sez

"He is either going outside to pee ,or going out for smokes"
"Well he fired up his truck, and pulled out, he must be going for smokes"


<Young Gun Soundtrack here>

Hey if I am going down, I gotta look good, going down with my tennis shoes on, Case Peanut in pocket and all that Cowboy stuff - right?

Right!
Great, now I get folks to agree with me...

I return from seeing a man about a dawg...

Enter that front door like I own the joint!

"Say, you are ba..."

"Step, back, I wanna see hands, and all you gals head off down the hall to the Master Bedroom...do it now, and don't be dilly-dallying about it neither, you'll knowed when its time to come out..."
I said in a assertive tone...


"What about me, the handsome dawg and all?" - asked the dawg.

"Your butt is going outside..." - I said as I closed the back door behind him



<up to something in the kitchen>

<Bon Jovi on CD , cranked>

Gals come out of the back...
I wuz doing my best Marlboro lean against the cabinet.

"That'll be close enough" I sez

"Now them guns are Handsome, and them crimped ctgs are Neat, ain't they?"


Handsome, yes they are! Them shells are so damn Neat...
Yep, Handsome, Neat!
Oh hell yeah, the most Handsome, and Neatest you ever laid eyes on...
So handsome and neat done got me a case of the vapors coming on I do believe ...


Four gals: Large dealie of Cheese dip, Salsa, Chips , Rocky Road Ice Cream, and Double Chocolate Cake, Coffee with a hint of Vanilla and Hazelnut...

<scratch, scratch at the back door>

"Yeah, whadday you want you mangy mutt!?"

"I'm handsome, but I smelled foood! So I can be a mangy mutt for a little bit and I changed my mind, to Handsome & Neat too, umm, would there would happen to be a Sonic Mustard burger in there with my name on it ...and could I puh-leeze have just a dab of that cheese dip too?"


Don't go up an older Southern Boy, nuh-uh, he has been there done that, raised right and picked up some experiences along the way.
He knows about that there Option 3 as well...

*blows smoke off his six shooter*
 
OK. One of you computer guys, we need a clip of Dirty Harry!

[Eastwood] This is a 44 Magnum, the cutest handgun in the world…[/Eastwood]
:D
 
Giver-inners are what ya'll are. *yep* *grin*

Oh there is a place for "cute" :

Like a little lady with a Kool-Aid mustache...
The crayon wall drawing of dots like the pattern board looked like...
A puppy with feets too big , and tripping over them feets...
A little lady sitting on the floor with a MEC Shell stacker - stacking shotgun shells...

What about them gals in a little black dress? Is that not sooo Cute...?


Damn Babe!! is what that is...

*grin
 
Sometimes, Steve, even "The Dawg" conspires against ya....

There is no Sonic Mustard Burger for "Turncoat Dawg" in here, but for Dawg named "Handsome & Neat".....
 
Ok, but just remember this is only the first round. That cute and neat thing can always sneak up behind you, slice your acheles tendon, and drag you into a perfumed, pink cell phoned, loyal only to the last goodie giver labbed, world of darkness. When you're wrong, you're wrong. When you're right, you're wrong, and sometimes the best you can hope for is a strategic withdrawal to the reloading room and turn on Tom T. Hall.

Just be glad they haven't found the diamond and ruby grips for a 1911 that appear on one of the gun auction sites.
