Gun Money Handshake

A common practice of selling firearms in an informal setting without submitting the purchaser to a background check. Surprisingly, it is perfectly legal in most places for rifles and shotguns but handguns are usually prohibited (considering statistics, rifles and shotguns are used in a small percentage of crime).

GMH makes purchasing old or used guns at shows or flea markets a breeze. However, you must always fill out paperwork to purchase new firearms from a dealer.

Gun Money Handshake:
Guy: Wow, M1 Garands! How much for this one?

Old Guy: $800 please.

Guy: <pays> Here you go.

Old Guy: Pleasure doing business.

Background check:
Guy: Cool, the new Bushmaster ACR! I'll take it!

Dealer: Have a seat and fill out this paperwork, please.

<15 mins>

Dealer: <calls insta-check hotline, guy is clear> That'll be $2,715.34 with tax and $20 transfer fee.

Guy: <pays>

Dealer: Pleasure doing business.

danger money

Definition: Fictional and unattainable currency

Vanishingly rare (possibly mythical) currency invented by Health Secretary Jeremy Hunt to pay Junior Doctors in England for their extra (but enforced) on-call work in lieu of real money.

Hunt famously let slip the existence of the near-fictional payments during a morning television interview where he appeared bewildered and unable to do even basic mathematics at 0715.

This lead to thousands of Junior Doctors attempting to supplement their soon-to-be-decimated salaries and lay claim to some of this so-called Danger Money. Their justifications took the form of a Twitter and Facebook campaign where claimants used the hashtag #dangermoney alongside a reason they felt they deserved some.

Economists estimate that if all the valid claims for Danger Money were paid out (even prospectively) the Treasury would be bankrupt before the week was out.
