Good luck to everyone that wants to go. I hope those people that get to participate learn some good stuff and ultimately write better stories.

Much appreciate but I withdraw my name from the list. Thanks.

What an incredible opportunity! Chuck, any chance the gun club will happen again? I’d love to participate.

Should I buy a .308 or a 6.5mm creedmoor hunting rifle?

I have never even seen an AR in real life I’m going to fight the urge to ride it like the bomb in Dr. Strangelove.

Don't fight the urge, Erin... give in!

This is the coolest offer I’ve seen from any author / journalist / musician I follow. Hat’s off to ya, wish I was in the area.

What is going on? lol . I'm so out of the loop. Gun school with Mr. Palahniuk?

oo sounds like so much fun! never been shooting before but who doesn’t have some pent up business that they need to deal with y’know? 🔫👹

Can you ask about rocket launchers? Grenades? Flame throwers? Anti-tank missiles?

Chuck Palahniuk's avatar

Okay you're on the FBI radar, right.... now.

Matt Rindge's avatar

During the Branch Davidian siege in Waco, I called them, the FBI, to offer my help in negotiations with David Koresh. I think I’ve been on their list since then :)

The fact that this could be recorded and put on Netflix makes it all the more devastating that there is a dress code at these places. The world deserves to see me and Erin blasting AKs in spike heels and opera length gloves!!! It's unjust! Damn it. It's un-American.

Andrew Rutledge's avatar

Dress code states as long as said spike heels are either camo or day-glo orange you’re good!

Hey Krissy! How have you been??

Krissy Eliot's avatar

I've been good! I've been bad! I've been ugly! Working on fiction and taking names. What about you?

Joe G's avatar

I've been having a blast reading all the Gloves Off. It's like I'm learning something new with each one, and I thought I was already pretty well-versed in Chuck's minimalism.

Or...I might be using Chuck's substack as an excuse to avoid writing...

I'm sorry!

XD

I am outraged! If not at a gun range where else will I ever be able to wear my fanciest gloves and sexiest ball gown goddamn it! Krissy and I now need a new event for our wares.

Chuck Palahniuk's avatar

The Netflix peeps says their plane is going out Sunday evening, so it's only a slim chance they'll come to tape us.

Krissy Eliot's avatar

That's only a little comforting. I was hoping to bring a pair of heels for you too, Chuck. I guess I still could.

Dana Joy's avatar

Dress code? Growing up in Ohio the shooting range was a popular spot for pre-prom dates! Tons of ball gowns and heels walking in there. Although admittedly some were camo.

Kimberly's avatar

Sounds like it's shaping up to be quite the memorable experience! Hope everyone attending has a great time 😊

Joe G's avatar

Krissy and Erin said they want to shoot some World War 2 cannons or at the very least, some rocket launchers.

XD kidding...or am I?

Erin Potter-Plow's avatar

I’m up for anything! As long as it killed nazis it’s good with me.

Joe G's avatar

Super excited for the Netflix people to record in your workshop. Chuck, make it really intense, like, make someone cry if you have to. Maybe throw a chair? "Whiplash" it up.

Elliott Daphne's avatar

Good luck on coercing the Netflix folks! That’s seems like it would make awesome footage.

I cannot thank you enough, Chuck. This has been one of my best months so far. I live for Gloves Off. These past few days, you've given me multiple orgasms. And I mean those powerful, haven't-masturbated-for-months kind of spurts. The kind that dampen the entire front of your boxer briefs. I'm talking about the kind of orgasm that would force a monk to break his lifelong vow of silence.

Okay, maybe not that last one, but still, thank you!
