Turns out it was just her relatives walking around with sticky notes and putting their names on stuff.

From the FAQ you linked:

Why does Block Party ask for so many permissions from Twitter?

Because of how the Twitter API bundles their permissions, the only way that Block Party can get access to mute and block functionality is to request the highest level of access, which comes with a long list of other permissions. It's unfortunately more than we'd like to ask for, but our core service depends on being able to mute and block through the API.

.44 mag is not something you just get for the hell of it. If someone just wants to get a gun without much experience/knowledge, they go for something that is going to be less expensive to buy and shoot, relatively easy to find, and usually a more popular caliber like a .22, 9mm, or .40.

I'm not saying only gun nuts get .44's nor am I saying that only casual shooters get 9mm's (because I own both and am definitely a gun-nut) but in general, coming from someone who used to sell guns, people who bought .44's came into the store knowing exactly what they wanted, how much they were going to spend, and had a pretty good idea of what they wanted to do with it. It is definitely not a "first gun" type of weapon, and I think most people realize that.

That being said, you always get those guys that come in and have a ton of extra money to blow and want to get a "cowboy gun" or a "Dirty Harry gun" and see that S&W 29 sitting on the shelf and they turn into a 10 year old boy again. Those kind of guys are dangerous though.

My guess is, based on OP's description of the room/situation, he is a pretty experienced gun handler. You don't simply "just get lucky" when shooting a .44.

In OP's defense, I never, in a million years, would have recognized Jason Sudeikis in the Wilde.
