Okay, Just out of curiosity, how many of you firearms enthusiasts have gotten the "pornography wink" when picking up a package at FedEx or UPS with an "ADULT SIGNATURE REQUIRED" sticker on it?
I was down at the FedEx picking up a pistol that had been shipped to me after custom work. On the box was a GIANT yellow sticker that said, you guessed it, "ADULT SIGNATURE REQUIRED."
Me: Hi, I've got a package waiting. Sexy FedEx Girl: Sure. Sign here, and I need some ID Me: Okay. Thanks. Sexy FedEx Girl: Wow...I've never seen that before...ADULT SIGNATURE REQUIRED. Me: Yeah...well... Sexy FedEx Girl: Are you and adult? *grin, grin, wink, wink, nudge nudge* Me: Er...yeah. Sometimes. Sexy FedEx Girl: It's just that it's...out there...I mean..BOOM! Adult Signature Required, y'know? *nudge nudge, wink wink* Me: Yeah...I know. Thanks. Have a good night. Voice in My Head: It's a GUN, Dammit! A GUN!
Sigh... damned if you do, damned if you don't.
