Tazing a sports streaker feels like punching Grandma in the face for taking too much mashed potatoes.
Completely justified in both cases, the old baggage needs to learn to stop hoarding the spuds.
Imagine pissing off Grandma so much that she attacks you randomly. Like a bat. The furry disease creature, not the baseball… Tool? Are sports gears considered tools? Or toys? Do professional athletes just play with toys all day?? Holy ADHD it’s gonna be a day…
“When grandmas go feral”
I think it’s “equipment” when used in sports, though broadly I guess they could be classed as tools.
Well if you can’t manage to use the correct words, it does bring you’re credibility into question.

Peak reditor move for a web service with this amount of non-americans
Ironically it is generally the anglosphere who sucks at their grammar. Since native speakers mostly learn it by speaking and listening they have a harder time with those they’re, there, their situations, while everyone else learns it as a second language, primarily through reading and writing. The latter is obviously better suited for good grammar.
I have also heard that English is actually a pretty hard language as well, it has so many goofy nuances like your, you’re, or there, their, they’re. Or words with different meanings like the whole Buffalo Buffalo Buffalo Buffalo Bufalo thing.

Your and you’re as well as there, their and they’re are completely different words that just happen to sound similar. Differentiating them is easy if you take a second to think about their meaning. This isn’t something unique to english, false friends exist in every language.
English is a weird case in terms if difficulty. The language itself is fairly easy to learn since it has a relatively small ruleset compared to other european languages. There are no special characters, conjugation is fairly consistent over different tenses and nouns have no gender to memorise.
The biggest problem with english is that it has not enough consistency in regards to spelling and pronunciation. The best analogy I’ve seen is that the english vocabulary feels kinda vibe-coded. There technically are established rules, but each rule has so many exceptions that you might as well forget about them entirely.
well grammar.
(j/k, and in that case should I have said grammer mayhaps? :-P)
What is the context of this?
First world cup game under the new rules that allow tazers.
Pretty sure this is a baseball game
Looks like a streaker at a sporting event being tazed by security.
That’s quite a lot of clothes for a streaker
This person is obviously not good at streaking as you can see.
Your story checks out
