Spiting on the Ground * OH NO MY BAG !!! *

Post by zachatree »

dose any one else hate it when ppl spit on the ground around the shred circle, and then have the bag fall in to it. I dont know i held my cool to day but some these kids around here are so damn dumb, the fucking kid threw a lighter on the ground and it recashaied and hit a car and the owner was staning right there and flips out on me, then he spits on the ground and drops my bag in it... then he was hoging the bag so much bc he could only kick it 5 times and drop then kick it another 5 times and drop and he would do this for 20 times in a row till he started to pass the bag. All i find is i wish i had some more ppl to shred with.

But as for spiting on the ground dose any one else have a problem with ppl doing this? Its been driveing me nuts, PPl seem to do it alll the time.

This only bothers me when im playing with newbies. only "hackers" spit in circles.

freestylists and shredders will not give you a problem with this.


just teach them ettiquette

holy crap. that used to bother me so much. I haven't had a bag land in a goober since back in the day when I was kicking a guatemalan hack around . but that used to piss me off. I definitely remember saying, on a few occasions, "no spitting in the circle".

heh, this is funny to me, zach. one day you'll be able to stop playing with hacky slackers all the time. I remember dealing with that shit, it sucks.

heh, get out of it for a while, and see what you say to yourself... ah, the joys of solo shredding...

damned if you do, damned if you don't.
BRICK!

I hate when people spit in a circle.

I don't know how accurate it is to say that no freestylers spit in a circle Henry. I've played with a couple who needed to be reminded not to, or had to have the circle moved because of it.

Aww man, I can't count how many times this happened to me. It fucking sucks. People don't listen to me when I tell them not to. Idoits, I swear.

Has anybody had their bag peed on? This little kid did it to mine once when I wasn't watching him. I just threw that bag away.

i know that i spit in the grass...not sure if that bugs anyone so much. but yeah people who spit in/around the circle should be shot (or at least told where to go(( to spit! ))) and yeah some freestylers DO spit in/around the cirlce in my own experience.

I dip alot... and I usually try to keep my spit away from where we're playing. Tobacco spit is even nastier than "clean" spit.

I don't think I've been in a circle where someone was spitting. But I can see how it might feel when it does land in it. Kinda gross.

Lightningbolt, what's the story of that kid peeing on your bag? What kind of bag was it?

recashaied

Ricocheted...HEHE

Thats really dumb that one would spit in the circle area. Honestly, i'd have to rub his fat face in the ground where he spit :p

In all honesty, no, that has never happened, and if it did, i'd move somewhere else of course.

man i was playing the other night with these drunk assholes. I was kicking it with them for a few minutes when I see my bag (mr sandman) go flying into this nasty blob of spit. I watched it fall in horror, it was slow mo and everything :( Right when it hit I heard "ohh shit.............sorry man" from one of the drunk idiots. Apearantly he spit when I wasnt paying attention to his every move like his mom most do at home. That is disgusting, I seriously wanted to pee on him. What you never felt that way? lol.

Man that is absolutly discusting, theres so much germs and crap in spit, if I see anyone spit on the ground or anywhere ill tell them not to or to get out of my circle.

There was this one time thuogh that my friend who i play with very occasionaly decided he would "Hungry Maori" my footbag, which in effect meant setting it and catching it IN is mouth!

I was so annoyed I made him go wash it and put it somewhere to dry and we used another bag. lol

It wasn't a good bag, just a crocthed shit bag.

I was kickin' with a some people and this guys little bro' was there. Anyways, to make a long story short. I let the little kid throw the bag around a try to kick it and shit. I wasn't watching him then next thing I heard was "No,danny, no." I whipped around a there was danny pissing all over my bag. And like I said. I just threw it away.

altough some people find me stupid when they join me at school, whenever someone I dont know wants to join I always tell them 2 simple rules
1)be "gentle" with the bag
2)Do not spit on the ground

It's simple to tell, and help's so much, if the noob hacker is'nt happy he can just go elsewhere

This one time at soccer practice when I was about 10 we were running and doing our thing. I just did something pretty cool, like a decent pass I think but play stopped. I put my hand on my hips (like all the pros on telly) and hocked a vicious loogey from the nether regions. I miss timed my spit action and the loogey left my mout, hit my chin and dangled all the way down to my boot. Needless to say I got the action right after that...

I've never really had a problem with circle spitting but I usually shred alone.

I do spit. Phlegm (sp) comes and goes because I smoke but I always just spit in a decent place and I never (willingly) endanger the safety of a foot bag.

I don't want no damned loogey on my bags!

You know, if you guys were any good, you wouldn't let the bag drop, and the spit wouldn't matter.

^^^ROTFLMFAO -- True, we have been known to kick over magma, but you know, spit just creeps up on you when you least expect it.

Im pretty sure its not that big of a deal. I really try not to spit into a circle but honeslty sometimes i forget and spit by accident. But i think people seem to be over exaggerating ALOT. whatever tho its all good

Who give's a shit? Spit isn't harmfull to your bag, and there's a very low chance that you could get sick from handling a bag that may of been dropped in a little spit spot. I'm not saying that it's nice or people SHOULD spit in the circle, but who cares, spit is based mainly of water (for all of you Bio flunks out there).

"It's made up mostly of water, with a few other chemicals" (direct quote from website).

HenryG, I occasionally spit in the circle. It's a bad habbit. Please don't call me a "hacker," we prefer to be called footbaggers.

Some people take things like this too seriously, especially when bags are WASHABLE (considering bathing your bags are encouraged during certain parts of it's life). Since saliva is water based, that means it's water soluble, makes for very easy washing (i.e. running it under a tap).

Edit: My personal opinion is that it's rude to spit in the circle. Especially when shredding with people you don't normally shred with. If it happens in a casual circle when kicking with regular friends I don't think it's that big of a deal. By a couple of the responses in this thread I think that some people take it a bit too seriously.

Thanks Tom :).
