There’s almost 50 yrs between the periods when the words Wicked and Awesome were ‘fashionable’ scary isn’t it?

When I was a child the teacher frequently ridiculed the ‘Left handers’ and daily threw the blackboard rubber ( 250g) at kids who failed to answer questions correctly.... it must have been a good school as it was approved

What gets on my wick is grown men asking what "socks to buy for stalking"
off shoot of that is by-passing all the years of field craft on fishing rabbits rats then can't grasp why stalking can be so difficult and this deer has 2 livers

The oldest stalker I know wouldn’t dream of buying Harkila trousers or a blaser or even copper ammunition.
He did it professionally for 20 years as an outfitter in kintyre too and put thousands of deer into larders.
He only wore stalking “kit” to make clients feel like it was more the real thing
Normally he’s in jeans and wellies
People getting their knickers in a twist about heads vs bullets
Really means its a 2moa rifle and they don't understand probability.It will shoot 1 MOA if I do my bit.
Like it's going to shoot 1 MOA if you don't bother trying!
I fully understand why. Using the term 'Heads' when they mean 'Bullets' is just wilful ignorance, whether everyone knows what they mean or not. It isn't rocket science to just use the correct word.
But then, some seem to take great delight in trying to make their ignorance a virtue
There are a number of adverts with "heads" for sale, which does not stop people buying them and the blessing is people who object to that term will have their comment removed, again adding to the point people will buy them without objecting to what they are called.

When I was at school the teacher asked one of what he called the “chipatti chaps”to run round the classroom as fast as they could. He then explained that the brown one was the live wire in a plug. There was some pretty appalling racism and abuse in classrooms in the past. Anyhow, back on point, if someone says using mk1s for spotting a deer without the aid of an optical device I’m beyond affronted.
