I myself wanted one of those remote controlled air planes. I thought that’s the coolest thing ever. Once I grew up and had the money, I never bought it.

I’m working on it, slowly.
I used to love all kids of weapons as a child. As in, from kindergarten on up. My mom was very anti-gun, didn’t like the idea of me having knives and swords, etc., and my dad went along with it. I know that I put an AK-47 on my Christmas wish list at one point.
I got my rifle, shotgun, and archery merit badges my first year at summer camp, when I was 13.
Now I’m… A little bit older. And I’m still adding to my gun collection. I don’t have as many knives as I want because my wife doesn’t like knives, but she’s fin with guns. I just competed in a match last weekend–I didn’t do very well, but I had a lot of fun, and didn’t do anything dangerous!–, and I’ve got another one coming up in 3 weeks.
I still don’t have an AK-47 (or any other Kalashnikov variant). But that’s mostly because it turns out that they’re not really very good.
EDIT - I took longsword classes for a while, and loved them, but the closest HEMA to me now is about an hour and a half. Oh well.
Man I’m a gun nut in my heart but there is no way I can buy an actual gun since I have mental illnesses. I couldn’t get into armed security because of that despite my doctor writing that I’m “stable”.
I tried to join the US Navy prior to the GWOT, and was denied because I was on Prozac at the time. If I’d tried to join after 11 Sept., there would have been no problem at all.
Any reason why? This is a strange view to me.
Ex-boyfriend tried to stab her to death.
Oh. Yep that’d do it.
