God clearly shot first and put a hole in their inflatable boat. This is just self defense.

Dats a flare gun and its part of any decent life boat kit. But that doesnt look like a lifeboat.

Also, they're clearly on a lake

Not the person you asked, but The Babysitter's Club books take place in the US, and that's what several of our lakes look like. Not a heck of a lot of oceanfront coast that has no beach, no transitional wetlands/grasslands, and just immediate mountains. There are several lakes in the US that fit that description.

Oh okay. I guess in the US, apart from Alaska, there wouldnt be cold enough areas at sea level to get this scenery. I was thinking Norway or something.

Are fjord waters calm like that?

[–] CrazyLikeGollum@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

If you find the right spot they can be, just probably not anywhere that close to shore.

Though if you were dressed like that in a little rubber raft on any part of Alaska's coast you'd probably be hypothermic or on your way to it. The ocean's may be warming but the water is still damn cold even in the middle of summer.

As someone who lives near Crestline and Lake Gregory I wouldnt even be surprised if the background was based off og it

[–] kalpol@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

There's also a ski boat in the background

[–] HaleHirsute 1 points 1 year ago

An alpine lake, and they’re not dressed for it.

[–] marcos@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

There doesn't seem to be space there for any kind of kit either.

That's a recreational rubber craft, they don't come with any kits.

Why does the word 'grundle' make me titter so?

[–] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.dbzer0.com 10 points 1 year ago (1 children)

That combination of consonant and vowel sounds is just naturally pleasing in a humorous way IMO 😁

[–] jawa21@lemmy.sdf.org 8 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It sounds like the name of a depressed Dr. Seuss villain.

[–] Diplomjodler3@lemmy.world 15 points 1 year ago (1 children)

No self respecting swimsuit-clad vixen would ever go on a rubber boat trip without her raygun.

[–] WagnasT@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago

In case of stingrays, obviously.

[–] 4am@lemm.ee 10 points 1 year ago

Why Stacy look like Gary Shandling’s secret daughter tho

[–] fiendishplan@lemmy.world 10 points 1 year ago

This make me laugh much harder then it should have!

[–] Akasazh@feddit.nl 8 points 1 year ago

Laat time this got posted someone linked the real book,I forgot the title.

However the gun was orange and clearly a flare gun. Where that was stored in the dinghy isn't clear

[–] lurch@sh.itjust.works 5 points 1 year ago

Hmm... Smells fishy to me.

The fuck?! You just handed it to me, Becky! You on that MeO-5-DMT shit again?

[–] stupidcasey@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Well you have to keep your God Gun on you at all times what if you have a aggregated deity jump in your boat? You think you can just punch it the nose and it will calmly swim away? This isn't the movies those things have teeth.

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

What you don't have a gun specifically for shooting the gods in their grundles hidden somewhere on your person?

Her actual thoughts were that that looked like her God De-Grundler. She's wondering how she snatched it without her knowing

[–] NecroParagon@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

So this is where Wade stole the idea to shoot God from on that Illiegal Advice episode.. Makes so much sense.
