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.

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

[–] unexposedhazard@discuss.tchncs.de 4 points 3 days ago (1 children)

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 2 days 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.

There's also a ski boat in the background

[–] marcos@lemmy.world 2 points 3 days 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 11 points 3 days ago (1 children)

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

[–] jawa21@lemmy.sdf.org 9 points 3 days ago (1 children)

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

[–] Aimeeloulm@feddit.uk 5 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Meh....I was thinking more of some old norse/viking demonic like creature, but I will take a Dr. Seuss villain all the same XD

The grundly bungthunger?

[–] Diplomjodler3@lemmy.world 16 points 3 days 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 3 days ago

In case of stingrays, obviously.

[–] fiendishplan@lemmy.world 11 points 3 days ago

This make me laugh much harder then it should have!

[–] Akasazh@feddit.nl 9 points 3 days 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

[–] 4am@lemm.ee 10 points 3 days ago

Why Stacy look like Gary Shandling’s secret daughter tho

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

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 2 points 3 days 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

Hmm... Smells fishy to me.

[–] stupidcasey@lemmy.world 3 points 3 days 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.

[–] NecroParagon@lemm.ee 1 points 3 days ago

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