truth on paintball snipers

Are you serious.

We treat this subject like a woman we wish we hadn't slept with, one who has been around the block a few times. We avoid it, or don't think about it at all. And on the forum, in public, we try not to acknowledge it without being too awkward or obvious about it. But it's hard to dismiss something without calling attention to it.

Sure, our friends may know about it, and they might give us a hard time about it, but it's all ok. It's when a stranger comes out of nowhere and gets up in our face with it, as though they had special insight into our situation that we get angry. Sure, at one time, it might have been a good argument to have, a good discussion, but that woman, that argument, has been awkwardly had in too many inconvenient, dirty ways. Now, to have it again, or to suggest or joke about it too much, is to open a wound, if only in our pride.

It's about qualities that we've all got, in some small part. We've all thought about dirtying ourselves in the sweaty embrace of that thread, and sometimes, when we're desperate, and no matter how many regrets it has given us in the past, we go crawling back in the night, under guise of boredom or being drunk.

But we all know that when somebody comes along, bragging about having slept with that woman, the town tease, it's hard not to jump in and say that you've done it too, that more people than are in the room have been down that dusty road a few too many times, with nothing more than a bad taste to show for it.

Keep your money, and send this argument back to the street corner.

Subject: Complete obliteration (thank you clark) of written english.

Body:

To all whom it may concern: On behalf of the members of this forum who have established themselves as rational, semi-intelligent individuals, we have found the attached message to be in severe violation of several rudimentary, yet key rules governing the use of written language. These errors seem to be intentional, thusly rendering the message impossible to comprehend, much less take seriously. If anyone has the power to translate this message into a somewhat more civilized form of writing, we may be inclined to give more thought to the argument raised by the original neanderthal who is responsible for creating it.......but don't bet on it.

Overweight is one, relatively insignificant, thing, trashy is quite another. Trashy sends me right back the way I came.

I've seen too much of pretty idiots.

And...
This is what MS Word comes up with, using the first on each grammar and spelling suggestion list:

Lots of pal says they are none existent, and some say they are. I say they are, but hey are only to a certain point, real snipers are crafty, may wear ghillie stuff, sneak around quietly, and take pal out from afar, without being seen. The taking pal out from a far is difficult in paintball cues of the limited range, but the rest is possible. Vie been in so much cover that the two guys I were shooting at had no clue where I was, or how I got there.   U can be stealthy and get a real kinas hiding spot and take loads of pal out, until they donut no where the shots are coming from and just take cover and stop snapping out. You can make a suppressor (which do work, but u gutter make me, donut make totally silent) get ghillie. Go on the edges of the field and find a good sop where lots of enemies frequently pass or have taken cover by.   The range is the biggest problem, but I found that the flailing helps out a lot or for accuracy the interceptors the best.   So all u pal saying that their rant any paintball snipers, u just think that cues u cant c us kicking urn ass!!!

"Oblideration"?

I actually drew a blank on which word I wanted to use....I knew that wasn't the best one as soon as I typed it, but I think I could have made a worse choice.

My point was not so much about the choice of word, but that if you are going to criticize others for their poor language skills, it helps to not have a giant spelling error in the title.

All I can do is laugh

Yeah but... there are no snipers in paintball.
