Shotgun 1 #152 March 5, 2008 Quote Quote Who is having a difficult time with definitions? The people who get ticked off, silly. Oh. Well, I don't think they're getting ticked off at definitions so much as getting ticked off at other people's judgments and elitist attitudes. I mean, I could "define" someone as a poser douchebag, and when they get mad about it, I could just say that I don't understand why they have a difficult time with definitions. There is a dictionary definition for "skydiver," but that's not what this thread seems to be about. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

iamsam 0 #169 March 7, 2008 Quote So what is your opinion IMHO it's all just semantics. If someone has done one tandem and wants to call themselves a skydiver let them. There's better things to do with your time than shoot down people who want to to be thought of or classed as something, whether they are in the club or not. It's an ego thing for them, and I would suggest getting too worked up about it is also an ego thing. I never contemplated a tandem before aff for the reasons you speak of, I wanted as much of the responsibility on that 1st jump as I could get, but if anybody wants to do a single tandem and then call themselves a skydiver that's fine with me, come find me in the bar at the end of the day and we can trade stories and compare notes, if that's your FIRST and going to be only skydive, you're buying the beer! Sarah if I'd known you're contemplating selling your body, even if only look but don't touch, I'd of made you an offer given you a jump ticket in Seville.

DJL 232 #170 March 7, 2008 They're a skydiver when they've decided that they're interested in skydiving, will be involved in the sport in some capacity, and will make the occassional skydive. Anyone who says otherwise is probably a sky-god and needs a warm cup of shut-the-fuck-up."I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
