Want to make a “firing range” pun, but nothing’s coming to me…leaving this as a placeholder in case inspiration strikes later.

Something about packing heat, too.

Good move. The last thing you want to do is post a half-baked pun.

What about a fully baked gun?

Sounds more like a cook off.

I think the subject of the news article already baked it plenty

Who knew? Them damn guns need a warning that says “Do not store in or near excessive heat, fire or flame”…

🤦‍♂️

realcaseyrollins OP ,

No one ever thought of making such a warning because nobody thought anyone would be this stupid!

over_clox , (edited )

I’ve literally seen pocket lighters that had a warning that said “Do not use near fire or flame”, coming from a device literally designed to generate fire! 😂

People have already proven themselves excessively stupid, I don’t see why guns aren’t required to have a lengthy safety warning literally etched into the metal by now. 🤷‍♂️

As Dave Barry famously observed, the box a Water Pik comes in bears the warning, “Do not use while sleeping.”

Guns already have lengthy safety warnings etched into them. Unfortunately, there definitely isn’t enough space to describe every moronic thing people could do with them.

over_clox ,

I’ve never seen any warnings etched into guns before, but I haven’t seen any newer guns made since like the mid 90s.

All I’ve ever seen etched into guns was the brand name, ammo size, serial number, and where the safety button/switch is.

It started in the 70’s, By the 80’s Ruger was putting it on all of theirs. After Dix V Baretta in the 90’s it became fairly standard.

over_clox ,

Fair enough. I was never a gun enthusiast, but my late father had like 5 different older guns I got to try out back in the day. 🤷‍♂️

A quick image search finds this warning label on ammunition saying to store it in a cool, dry place.

over_clox ,

Well, yeah, but the gun is safe right? Right…

saigot ,

pffftt guns can never be the problem, we need to add the safety label to the ovens!

sundray ,

Just baking up some hot cross guns.

realcaseyrollins OP ,

This should not have made me laugh out loud, but it did!

ArbitraryValue ,

But who can stop an oven with a gun?

realcaseyrollins OP ,

Only a good oven with a gun!

Mythbusters S05E16. Loose bullets fire off but do not have energy to pierce the metal. A gun will fire a lethal bullet

I wonder if there was a round in the chamber, and it was able to cycle.

Hot bullets get your hot bullets!

bdonvr ,

Because of the lack of barrel. But in this case the gun was loaded so it should come out full force

ilost7489 ,

I mean to be fair who likes to eat cold lead

MNByChoice ,

Constantly shocked by people that don’t open the oven door at look every time prior to preheating the oven.

How else will you find:

  • no pilot light
  • a blanket
  • cast iron cookware cooling
  • loaded guns
  • forgotten food

Look in the oven people! It takes 1 second.

AA5B ,

Why would you expect anything to be in the oven? Maybe the cast iron is the exception but only because it can take the heat

MNByChoice ,

Fun fact: Some ovens have a storage drawer at the bottom (drawer under main door.) Some ovens have a broiler at the bottom (drawer under main door. Maybe only gas ovens, maybe not.)

AA5B ,

And some call that storage a “warming drawer”.

Hopefully you know what you have, plus why would you put anything in storage at someone’s house, if not the place it came from?

Blumpkinhead ,

I keep my fireworks in the warming drawer.

Katana314 ,

I’m reminded of a joke from Burn Notice where Michael has kept a folder of critically important blackmail files in his mother’s oven for several seasons. He just casually points out she never actually cooks anything herself.

NotMyOldRedditName , (edited )

That show was awesome.

DarkSirrush ,

I do not understand ever storing anything in the oven, its a cooking tool not a storage tool.

I will agree if you have a gas stove that checking the pilot light is a good idea, but those are becoming less common as we are discovering just how bad they are for your health - that, and induction is amazing for anything that doesn’t require an open flame (and that’s what bbqs are for!).

SirSamuel ,

On one hand, it’s stupid as hell to store a firearm anywhere but in a safe/cabinet designed for them. An oven is another level of stupid

On the other, I used to store our cast iron Dutch oven in the oven and I can’t tell you how many times I started preheating the oven and then remembered to take it out. Usually after its oil seasoning started to heat up

BigMacHole ,

This headline is AGAINST THE SECOND AMENDMENT! Not Be Infringed MEANS NOT BE INFRINGED! I can Store my Gun WHEREVER I want!

VitabytesDev ,

(I don’t have time to make an image right now, but anyway)

Hey America, how you doing?

Don’t keep your gun in the oven.

Oh.

callouscomic ,

Uhhhh, also don’t store loaded guns? Like, at all. Anywhere.

MajorHavoc ,

This is the part that’s boggling my mind.

  1. Stored guns in an oven.
  2. Stored guns loaded.

But not content to stop there:

  1. Stored loaded guns, inside an oven.
lemming741 ,

Your oven is a machine gun now, to go with your shoelace.

I worry about the people who need to be told things like this. How did they survive childhood without signs warning them not to breathe water or drink the contents of thermometers?

ABCDE ,

A primary school child took a gun to school, so apparently there needs to be a manual (and, well, training?) as a mandatory thing.

realcaseyrollins OP ,

Being sheltered through life?

HeyThisIsntTheYMCA ,
@HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world avatar

the article also tells me not to store anything else in there, but that’s where I keep my pizza stones (I usually cook pizza on the grill) and fuck you I’ma keep them in the oven.

realcaseyrollins OP ,

Well hey don’t blame me when your pizza stones overheat and murder your whole family while they’re standing in the kitchen!

CarbonatedPastaSauce ,

Of course he won’t.

He’ll blame the pizza stone manufacturer.

At least here in Missouri, no licensing or training is required to own one of these deadly weapons.

And it shows.
