@hokkori_buzz Haha what a great story. Although I question the instructor letting someone new shoot such a firearm for their first time. While a 22 might not be as “tasty” it’s far easier 😆

USA. I went to a shooting range in Nevada.
The instructor pointed at a gun that was half the size of my torso and said, “This is the .44 Magnum.”
I did not understand what a Magnum was.
In Japan, Magnum means ice cream.
A delicious, chocolate-coated ice cream bar.
I assumed this was some kind of American dessert ritual.
I held it with both hands, the way you hold a very large, very important ice cream.
The instructor said, “Are you ready?”
I thought he was asking if I was ready to eat.
I said yes.
The gun went off.
My arms went back.
My body went back.
My soul briefly left the building to file a complaint.
I looked at the target. There was a hole the size of my ambitions.
The instructor was impressed. He said, “Nice shot.”
I said, “It does not taste like chocolate.”
He did not respond for a long time.
I have returned to Japan.
My wrists are fine.
But I think about that ice cream every day.
Is this normal? What flavor is the .357?

@tanpukunokami I would say pretty normal. Hunting is a way of life in country Hawai’i. We hunt invasive pua’a (wild boar) and axis deers. Shooting at the range is fun too. I’ve shot since I was a young child and had BB gun at 6. Taught my little girl gun safety early. It’s a tool like any other

Americans, I’m genuinely curious 🇺🇸
What was your first experience with a real gun?
In Japan, most people go their whole life without ever seeing one.
I’ve never seen one.
Not at a friend’s house.
Not in someone’s car.
Not anywhere.
But for some Americans, guns seem to be part of family life, hunting, farms, sport shooting, or self-defense.
So I want to understand:
Was your first gun experience normal and boring?
Scary?
A family tradition?
Or something only certain states really understan

@SharkCoastTours @Naturevibe30463 Cool! You have very different sport fish there. Ya I got tarpon when I went to Florida. Amazing fish!

@Kainoa808Strong @Naturevibe30463 No. We are based in Gansbaai, South Africa.
So we don't see those fish here.

@GovPritzker #STFU 🐱. Where were you when the last administration drummed up false charges against Trump? Where were you when the last administration went after PTA parents and political groups they didn’t like #hypocrite

This attack on Gov. Newsom represents a dangerous escalation by Trump.
The President frequently calls for the jailing of his perceived enemies, but his playbook of weaponizing the Department of Justice as a personal attack dog is another level of corruption.
This must stop.
Gavin Newsom@GavinNewsom
Today, my wife & I joined Donald Trump’s hit list. He has directed his Department of Justice to investigate us. They have not found a crime - they are simply trying to find one. He isn't coming after me because of mean tweets, but because I am considering running for President. He hates that I consistently call him out. He is simply the most corrupt President in American history. We have nothing to hide. Mr. President, come after me. I am not going anywhere. The country is watching.
English
The Justice Department is not a tool for the President to investigate his political opponents.
Welcome to the BS investigations club, Governor Newsom. You’re in good company.

My office is demanding the Trump Administration release any and all records on the Trump DOJ’s politically motivated, baseless fishing expedition.
The American people deserve to know who ordered this abuse of power and how far it goes.

💸 What if you could get clothes, furniture, baby supplies, books and household items without spending a dime? Hawaiʻi's growing "Really, Really Free Market" movement is helping residents save money while building community. See how it works: khon2.com/sandys-suggest…

@Kainoa808Strong @japan_nobunaga Tried that when I was visiting Hawaii. I'm a fan.

Hot take from Japan 🔥
I think Americans eat burgers

Correct me in the replies.
I want the funniest misconception

@bennyjohnson #democrats are the loser theater kids and #republicans are the jocks that just took their lunch money and gave them a swirly 🤣

Last night, Trump hosted the greatest sports event in history at the White House.
This is what Democrats did to “counter” the UFC fight.
Brace yourself… total cringe.

@Naturevibe30463 What kind of fish 🐟 is that? 🤔
English
@SharkCoastTours @Naturevibe30463 This is a Tarpon (Megalops atlanticus). Very popular gamefish in Florida, the Caribbean and Mexico. They get well over 100lbs and can jump clear out of the water.

@IfindRetards That makes me absolutely sick. I lost my fiancé to cancer. Damn internet made it safe to be a PoS and not get dirty lickins. 🤜 💥 💀

There are some unbelievably evil people on this app. This retard regularly lies about having and beating cancer. This is a small snippet of what they have posted.
I called out a post earlier and was quickly blocked. Hope this account from South Asia isn't monetized or won't be for long.
Disgusting
