I know what you mean.

I have my own personal bathroom next to my home office. The wallpaper motif is bird hunting.

I have a 100 year commorative USMC KA-BAR on one wall. And a 12 ga SBS field gun on another wall.

Some of our friends are scared to use my bathroom.

Some of them have children in the military! *rolling eyes*

One of my neighbors is a truck driver and he's around mostly weekends, so we keep a VERY close eye on his place and his family while he's gone....his wife and mom-in-law.

One night, I heard something over his way. It was 0200 and his rig was parked, and I figured somebody was messing around, so I grabbed one of the ARs with a light on it, went to our bathroom on that side of the house, lifted the window very quietly, and had a good "listen".

As it turned out, nobody was out there. I was convinced of that. While I was in the area, I had to use the bathroom, so I layed the AR on a rather large vanity that had a bunch of laundry and towells on top of it.

Then (very much unlike me), I PROMPTLY forgout about leaving the AR on top of that vanity and went back to bed! The next day we had visitors who weren't exactly used to seeing AR-15s laying around bathrooms. The kids were SUPPOSED to clean that vanity off, but for some reason, it didn't get done. Actually....some of it got cleaned off...which only made the rifle more visible. They also TOLD me that the AR was still there and I was SUPPOSED to put it up. But I didn't.

So...the lady of the family who was visiting used that bathroom and got all freaked out.

Scarred for life I suppose. :-) Ah well... :-)
