Gun like object (GLO)

According to Wikipedia a gun is “a device or ranged weapon designed to throw a projectile using pressure or explosive force. The projectiles are typically solid, but can also be pressurized liquid, or gas. Solid projectiles may be free-flying or tethered”. A gun like object or GLO is any fictional device in a video game, video, graphic novel or story that fits this definition. It can also be an actual object that is not a gun but has some resemblance to a gun.

A player pushes one button to aim the gun like object (GLO) at an opponent and another to fire it.
The “noisy cricket” of the movie “Men in Black” is a noted “fictional firearm”, or GLO.

Police have mistakenly shot people who pull phones from a pocket, mistaking the phone for a gun like object.

SOOM

abbreviation of Smell Of Old Man. A musty smell common to elderly otherwise functioning men suspected to be a combination of denture breath, urine, & clothes that haven’t been cleaned lately and a decreased sense of smell with age which lowers self awareness.

When meeting with the professor I’m distracted by the SOOM

His SOOM is worse since his wife died.
