Non-USian here, what was the plan?

Presumably the guy was trying to buy a gun while dressed as the joker, but the shopkeep turned him down.

That's what I'd expect to happen. Why does he think it's significant enough to commemorate on social media?

Do people find this to be funny?

oh no, he's a comedian. A kinda dark Internet comedian.
Someone once called the cops on him because he was covered in fake blood with a knife in his car recording a video https://youtu.be/VI4GbvegGZg

Just the other week he died on video https://youtu.be/MwfgdiDuYVA

Then legend has it everything he posts has been AI sense

(joking, if you didn't get it)

Oooh now that makes sense. Thank you!

Why would you expect that? I understand if he was being weird, but just being dressed a certain way shouldn't impact whether you can buy something.

I highly doubt he was refused service, he probably just took the picture and left.

Idk, might be the lack of US genes in me.

I don't think I've ever heard that turn of phrase before. But now I'm gonna start referring to all my buddies across the pond as UKian 😋

Good. This acronym-as-country-name thing is a bad habit that needs to be discouraged at every turn.
