kanaya: Change.Org - Petition To Hire 1000000 People To Put Their Fingers In The Shoot Hole Of Peoples Guns So They Cant Shoot Them
kankri: It’s still g9ing t9 sh99t... and they’re g9ing t9 l9se a finger.
kanaya: No. The Finger Blocks The Bullet. We Can Do This
kankri: This is a gun we’re talking a69ut. The pr9jectile is fired using an expl9si9n, n9t 6y c9mpressed air 9f a t9y gun 9r the elastic f9rces 9f a sling sh9t. Pe9ple w9uld 6e lucky if they 9nly l9st their finger.
kanaya: The Finger Blocks It
kankri: The finger w9n’t 6l9ck it. The shaft is 9nly there f9r keeping the 6ullet straight; all the pr9pulsi9n happens 6ehind the 6ullet. The 6ullet w9uld rip thr9ugh the finger, n9t that many w9uld actually fit with9ut the victim 6eing a child, and 6eyond.
kanaya: The Bullet Would Go Forward A Little And Then Hit The Finger And Stop Its Not That Hard To Understand
kankri: Pe9ple are g9ing t9 l9se their hands. G9 watch Myth6usters. They did an epis9de 9n this, the hand fucking expl9ded.
kanaya: No The Bullet Would Start To Go But Stop At The Finger Thats Basic Physics. Also Hands Dont Explode Normally They Did Something Wrong
kankri: Why in the w9rld w9uld y9u even c9nsider sticking y9ur finger in the 6arrel 9f a l9aded gun?? The am9unt 9f f9rce pr9pelling the 6ullet at that cl9se 9f range w9uld shatter the finger at the very least; this is a petiti9n for 1,000,000 pe9ple t9 l9se the use 9f their hands. If a 6ullet expl9des the 6ack 9f a person’s skull when they sh99t it in their m9uth, it sure as day will expl9de a finger.
kanaya: No The Finger Would Stop It
kankri: I’m l9ving y9ur idi9cy. Pe9ple with 6rains understand that, ummm, finger g9 699m, while 9thers like y9u really think the 6ullet st9ps. 6ut sure, “We n9 kn9 fisics”.
kanaya: No The Finger Would Stop It
kankri: If y9u think the 6ullet w9uld st9p at the finger, then y9u have never sh9t a gun and can v9lunteer t9 put y9ur finger in the 6arrel 9f my pist9lkind. I’ll pull the trigger and see if it will st9p the 6ullet. Cretin.

karkat, to rose, both watching from a distance: WHAT THE FUCK IS SHE DOING?
rose: Apparently for dudes who’ve got a compulsive need to be the smartest person in the room, “someone who’s wrong in a really stupid way who has unshakable confidence that they’re smarter than you” is their kryptonite. You can play dumb on almost any subject and their ego, their staunch belief that the masses are so far below them, will blind them to the fact that you’re just fucking with them, and as long as you don’t admit you’re fucking with them or acknowledge that there’s anything off about what you’re saying, they won’t be able to stop themselves from trying to get you to respect their authority. And they won’t be able to see that will literally never happen.
rose: In other words... she’s mastered human sarcasm. And I am so proud of her.
