CyberTailor,

You run fast but they don’t get tired.

BDalt,

Persistence hunting; you don’t have to be accurate, you just need to tire out your prey.

Or just use common sense and use your gun…

M137,

How are you this dumb?

I’m not that dumb to run x miles when I can pull out my piece and be done in a few seconds.

H&K wooden spear

hydrospanner,

It’s an incredibly well made and reliable wooden spear but it costs ridiculously more than other wooden spears that are 95% as good.

And since they’re primarily concerned with big military contracts for wooden sticks, they make it clear that the persistence hunter market is one they actively disdain…but we still line up to buy their wooden sticks.

Darth_Reagan,

guns are naturally occuring

I’m surprised your were able to hold a thought and type at the same time.

Did you shit yourself while creating this comment?

qooqie,

Just wait until those weird hairless apes with back issues learn how to fling those pointy sticks really fast with twine and wood

threelonmusketeers,

Just wait until those same weird hairless apes with back issues learn how how to harness a particular mixture of charcoal, brimstone, and poop crystals.

hydrospanner,

To make poop knives?

threelonmusketeers,

Not quite. Guano was historically a source of saltpetre…

hydrospanner,

For real?!

TIL! Thanks for explaining.

threelonmusketeers,

For real?!

Yup: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guano

Though its main use was as fertilizer, Guano was also sought for the production of gunpowder.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potassium_nitrate#From_cave…

Major natural sources of potassium nitrate were the deposits crystallizing from cave walls and the accumulations of bat guano in caves. Extraction is accomplished by immersing the guano in water for a day, filtering, and harvesting the crystals in the filtered water.
