Why would you shoot at a naked guy?
post by: deborah at: 11:14 | 34 comments
I wouldn't. I'd probably invite him in for coffee.
posted by jonmc 15 June | 11:17
The naked man was not arrested and didn't want to pursue charges

How often do we hear that, eh? What a nice naked man.

Why would I shoot a naked guy?

Because I thought he was a pheasant?

Do you really need a reason?
posted by cmonkey 15 June | 11:28
Because that naked man could be the next Hitler!
posted by Capn 15 June | 11:32
Obviously because he's a bush rustler.

I'd like to know if he changed his girlfriend's mind.

I'd shoot paint pellets at him. Then I'd play the art card.

Why would him being naked persuade his girlfriend to do anything? I'm not sure I understand this guy's thought process.

And, from the article, I don't think the guy shot at him but rather fired a shot into the air to scare him into compliance, which worked all too well.

The vigilante should face charges for illegal discharge of a firearm in a residential area though. And I had to make sure it wasn't Texas before saying that.

"taking risks is an important part of life..."
I think he proved his point a little too well.

Don't you mean "peasant", OD?
posted by deborah 15 June | 12:20
Either a feathery peasant, or a wrinkly old pheasant, deborah. The lines keep getting more and more blurred. Is it any wonder I fired off my gun precipitously?
posted by overanxious ducksqueezer 15 June | 12:24
Perhaps a nudist wedding's in order.

(no need to frisk the guests)
posted by Pips 15 June | 12:26
(But the frisking would be the best part about a nude wedding!)
posted by Specklet 15 June | 12:30
You city slickers actually frisk wedding guests?
posted by danostuporstar 15 June | 12:41
I blame you, deborah. And sleep deprivation.
posted by overanxious ducksqueezer 15 June | 12:46
Ha! You have a point there, Speck!

(dano, only the out-of-towners) : )
posted by Pips 15 June | 12:59
...and we're taking applications for security personnel at our wedding...

*ducks*
posted by jonmc 15 June | 13:10
The out-of-towners and the terribly attractive.
posted by Specklet 15 June | 13:12
Nude wedding... Hmmm... I bet there's a chapel for that in Vegas...

(Elvis can still wear his blue suede shoes... and jon his chucks...) : )
posted by Pips 15 June | 13:17
Pips, that was something I would rather not imagine.

*scrubs brain*
posted by deborah 15 June | 13:21
Okay, if I'm the woman being proposed to, and during the proposal the boyfriend equates the "risk" of marrying me with jumping out of a window and running naked through the streets...?

I dunno. I just might shoot him myself.

Because he was in Reno and I wanted to watch him die.
posted by jrossi4r 15 June | 13:29
The real question, deb, is where do ya pin the boutonniere...
posted by Pips 15 June | 13:32
Who said anything about pinning it? There are at least a couple orifices available...
posted by deborah 15 June | 13:34
I like the way you think... will you be my maid of honor? : )

(watch the thorns...)
posted by Pips 15 June | 13:38
Sure, since the maid of honor doesn't have to wear a boutonniere.
:^)
posted by deborah 15 June | 13:41
The things I do for love.
posted by jonmc 15 June | 13:42
True, or "pin" the groom... that's the best man's job... volunteers?

(you'd be the cutest naked groom ever, love...)
posted by Pips 15 June | 13:59
In a given place the boutonniere would become the buttonniere.

Hey, isn't Butt on Ear in England somewhere?
posted by fenriq 15 June | 16:23
Hey, has anyone else NOTICED IN THIS THREAD THAT JON AND PIPS ARE TALKING MARRIAGE TALK?

Jeezus - who gives a shit about the Naked Guy. This is the coming of the Apocalypse.

posted by Lipstick Thespian 15 June | 16:43

then Jon and Pips
and the bunny entourage!
(fine, I know it doesn't rhyme)
