Yep. Well, not exactly my guns, but my choice of caliber. There's a range here where I work (it's a university, with a ROTC program, and they do rifle qualification and stuff). The range is not generally a public range, but there are weekly shoots and stuff. I was interested in participating, and called the guy who coordinated the whole thing.
So, on the phone with me, he starts off by chiding me for not immediately volunteering information about my age, employment, and so forth. Annoying, but I figure, hey, free range time. Then he asks what caliber I shoot, and I say, "Nine." (At this point, I own one gun--a CZ P-01--and am just getting into shooting). His response?
"I'm sorry." And he sure didn't mean, "I'm sorry, I didn't catch that."
I was a bit surprised, and sorta paused for a long beat, and then said, "Thank you for your time. Goodbye." That was it. Never got to try out the range. Some things aren't worth the irritation.
