A wedding guest handed me his jammed carry pistol during the reception

During the toast, a guy tapped my shoulder and passed me his pistol, whispering it was stuck. I stepped aside, found a spent casing lodged wrong, cleared it in seconds. What's your most unexpected place you've had to fix a gun?

Was that the only time you've had to deal with a gun issue in a totally wrong place? Like, ever had one at a kid's birthday party or something?

My cousin's stove malfunctioned during Thanksgiving dinner.

I used to assume kitchen appliances would never fail during a holiday meal. Your cousin's stove malfunction really shifted my view. We had a similar scare when our oven quit on Christmas Eve. Ended up cooking pies in the neighbor's toaster oven. It made me realize you can't trust anything fully on a big day. Now I always have a plan B, like ordering takeout as backup.

That line about the stove failing on a holiday is exactly it. It's like the universe waits for the worst possible moment. My old truck would only overheat when I was running late with a full load of packages. Stuff just knows when you absolutely cannot deal with it. It's a weird rule of life that the more you need something to work, the more likely it is to break. Makes you wonder if we're all just living in a badly written sitcom sometimes.
