Need to get something off my chest.

yeah, so for the past few weeks, when bored, I started at the beginning and re-read this entire topic. Hilarious. Really, there are some gems way back. I guess I feel a little shame for admitting to reading all of it again, but whatever.

Went to the bar and met some friends, and had a 3 hour argument with my friends new gf who i had just met. every time I'd start talking, she'd cut me off with her views...for 3 straight hours. We figured out a system to talk where a 409 bottle was used as the talking stick. This was pointless because she still wouldn't let me get a word in, I then sprayed her in the face with 409 and felt like a dick.

It must have!

When I was at Oak Ridge Military Academy in 7th grade, I drank about two mouthfuls of that shit for 40 dollars, which at that age might as well be $100. Needless to say I vomitted for about an hour after which I proceeded to the Exxon Station across the street to load up on goodies.
409 is viscious. Either way though, Good call on spraying her. :wink:

But short vids like these, even with 3 and 4 add links, are so pleasurable to watch because of the style and ease with which it seems you are playing. You truly do have the "easiest"-looking style and it makes freestyle look so nice. Thanks for the vid, and props on your zooming. If you were a girl, I'd be zooming in on you, you shirtless shred man-beast. But you're not, so rest assured I'm fully zoomed out.

You should keep on writing. Once the still freestyling future net players realize they were wrong the whole time, they're going to need a role model with a similar histoy. A history of being gay.

message (spam) from shellsofparadise
I'm searching around for kids kicking at the foot jam.
I'm a stitcher from Jersey, and have no customers
cause I've been in the woods for a number of years.
Also, my styles are somewhat unconventional.
Trying to get a name out there I'm donating a few
sacks to the tournament. I'm eager to get as much
exposure as possible, and would like to send your
circle a bag to demo. take a look through the pics
on my sale page and lemme know what you like. I
'm working on a lot of projects these days and hope
to add you guys into the mix.

I don't personally categorize charitable donation to a footbag event as spam, and I'm not sure why you would.

The footbag has been passed to them, let's see if they can hit a decent run with it.
Ben Skaggs

So to continue your footbag metaphor: when Bush came into the White House, he was given a broken-in Felix bag, with a backup Waylon bag and lots of extra filler. When Obama gets in, he's getting a sipa-sipa guatemalan bag that has been repaired with duct tape. So don't expect Obama to go fearless off the bat with it.
Ken Somolinos

I'm fine with that. But at least improve every day and maybe save some money to buy a new bag. That's all I'm saying. Cause when you talk like you can hit beastly combos, at least be able to do some guiltless with a messed up bag.
Ben Skaggs

Obamas advantage is he is black and there ain't many of those in footbag, so people appreciate him alot in the beginning.
Asmus Helms

Bush didn't have it all good though. Don't forget that a couple jerks came by while he was shredding and grabbed his 2 choice bags and tore gaping holes in them. Even with G's you can't shred with bags like that. Not to mention the psychological effects that has on you as a player. I mean, how can you keep playing at a high level if you're always worried about someone coming by and stabbing your bags mid air? Sure he may have overreacted to the situation, but how many of us wouldn't?
Ben Skaggs


He just used this as an execution for doing the only trick he is good at Massacre. And keep selfserving trying to hit (his) Nemesis but couldn't.
Asmus Helms

Fame.
