Same with ships.
The people who train watch seem weird to me. I never understood it.
I know a guy who works for Norfolk Southern, he says they become a problem sometimes.

I'm still perplexed by this part of the question. I have never in my life met a person that gets giddy about ships. Hell, I dread seeing those big bastards, because it means my trip likely gets 20% longer as I swing around their bow.

I just went for a couple of beers, some non halal steak while my wife sat in a summer dress, so feeling pretty comfortable in my 96% white Christian city thanks.

Everyone's different, but I collect WW2 era rifles and enjoy shooting them as it's a really cool/unique way of connecting with a part of history I read a lot about.

Regular soy consumers have the ancestral feeling of holding a weapon of war suppressed within them.

If you’re too dense or whatever it is to follow or take on the information as it’s presented to you to follow, then a conversation can’t really take place. This is where I exit. I wish you well regardless.

I'm over 60 and if I had a garbage can full of just .22 ammo I could plink away all day and be happy. Been that way since I was a kid.

Seems like your enjoyment is boasting about stupid shite you have and do.
Probably because you have a little penis.

Yeah all that's pretty meh. Trains, on the other hand...

I have a few guns and enjoy shooting them but I'm not as into them as some others.
That said, I have way more golf clubs than most people should and love to tinker and build sets so I can definitely understand why people would have those same feeling about guns.

I like keeping proficient with my firearms in order to potentially protect and/or feed my family. The likelihood of either happening is extremely low, but why take the chance.
I don’t care about boats or ships but don’t give a rats arse if other people do.

Ships from all eras are cool as hell.
It's the way we turned the sea from an impassible obstacle to a water road.

I think I get it. That's an ancient, primal vessel (no pun intended) of freedom, seeking new land and abundant food, escape from danger or stagnation. It's youthful excitement. It's the same excitement as getting your fast car as a teen.
It's also one of the great original war weapons, and so battleships represent the allure of war and military control but across distance and shortened time. It's the original fighter jet and bomber.
Guns. They are survival. Protection. They allow you to foray for food, new lands, and protect loved ones. It is security in one's ability to do the most important tasks: protect and provide. It doesn't get better. A people or person what doesn't appreciate that is a cuck or a woman.

If you take a normal dude who has never shot a gun and give him a suppressed MP5 he’ll grin for an hour afterwards and it has nothing to do with feeling macho, etc. You simply can’t trust anyone who wouldn’t find that fun IMO
What is it like to fire an AR-15? It’s horrifying, menacing and very very loud
