Hooked on Punctuation worked for me!
Even worse/ dumber/ meaner/ funny (To NCO's anyway) than scope eye-
We used to get an annual tasking to support training ROTC Advanced Camp cadets, just prior to their commissioning. A couple buddies and I were covering M1911 pistol familiarization, and we were surprised that more than a few Cadets had never touched a handgun, let alone cranky old range whore 1911s. One candidate was having trouble getting rounds on paper at 7 yd, so my buddies, being 2 of the finest NCO's the 82nd had to offer, suggested (jokingly) that the Cadet hold the pistol up close to her face to get a better sight picture.
Cut forward to her next turn up at bat, buddies had long since laughed it off, assuming she understood it was a joke- She HAD completed the morning's weapon orientation and safety class....
I was napping in the shade on a pallet of ammo and got called to the firing line for an injury. Seems that a Cadet had a big cut and bruise on her cheek and eye socket. Ended up going to surgery the next day to reassemble her orbital rim and get a cosmetic closure. Bruised her globe as well.
We all got an ass chewing, even the rest of us just for being there, but our 1SG realized that it was a joke and she was dumb enough to swallow it..

Scope eye is easily avoided with proper technique. I find it highly annoying that anyone enjoys seeing someone else get hurt. It is like watching a child touch a hot iron just so they can learn. Learn and teach proper technique or stay away from scoped rifles!
I find it very funny when people hurt themselves. infact in brings me great joy to call my friends a dumba$$ when they do something stupid that gets them hurt. If that makes be a bad guy than well I guess I am. How can you expect to learn if you stay away from scoped rifles alltogether You cant just read a book or watch a video and become a master shooter. I bet everyone who has been scope bit learned something from it.
I do not mind laughing at folks who do something stupid but that is different than setting someone up to get hurt. I have taught thousands of folks to shoot without hurting themselves. I did not say stay away from scopes, but learn about eye relief and stock weld before you try to shoot a scoped rifle.
Nobody was set up
