An armed man picked the wrong store clerk to rob when he entered a Texas smoke shop last month.

In surveillance footage taken of the incident, a man enters Austin, Texas, store and immediately draws a gun.

Without missing a beat, the store clerk, who is smoking a cigarette, draws his own gun - a CZ-75 SP-01 9mm pistol - and begins firing at the robber.

The store clerk seems completely unfazed and doesn't even put down his cigarette as he fires at the assailant.

At one point while he's shooting, he even appears to try and take a drag off the cigarette.

Guess what would have happened to the store owner should this have happened in the UK. Guess.

Some things people smoke make them mellow.

Footage is a fossil, an old description that does not jibe with modern day tech. There is no footage on a hard drive.
We see the same thing with fossil words ‘tape’ and ‘film’ when what’s being discussed is video.

“Footage is a fossil word.”

True, but like a lot of English words, it’s a hard one to replace, even as technology leaves it behind.
