gipsi 0 #1 June 17, 2007 three or four days ago i posted my first thread on this silly web page. it was about my girlfriend breaking up with me because i refused to stop skydiving. Now, im basically a newbie, with less than 50 jumps, and i basically created a thread of truly experienced jumpers laughing at me. At first i was pissed off, but soon i realized that most of you really experienced cats have lived through a series of life altering sacrifices in order to jump. i get it now. all you big tough skydivers, with your D licenses, can break my balls all you want. i hate you all, and i thnk that you all are assholes. however, once i have 1000 jumps under my belt, i plan on breaking the balls of the newbies as well. its a tough and competitive sport. i get it. so, to all you old bastards hat think you're hot shit because you've survived 10+ 15+ 20+ years in this sport, just remember that in two years my little novice punk ass will be freeflying circles around you guys... (ok... seriously, dont tell the guys at crosskeys that i wrote this. i actually have to see them in persn. however, all you cats from around the country that ill probably never meet: break my balls all ya want. ill be abetter skydiver than you one day.

gofast_ER 0 #9 June 17, 2007 personally I love this post. Got a pretty good laugh. And who knows, you just might be better than a lot of people down the road. Never know. Personally I haven't broken up with my girl over skydiving but I have pissed her off. She called me out the other day because when I talk to her on the phone all I can do is talk about jumping and buying new gear when I get back...not seeing her. (by the way I am in Iraq)I have tried to put the talking about skydiving in check when I talk to her. I honestly don't know if I am more excited to get back up in the air than I am to see her. I hope not. Oh yeah and um, I know you just registered on dz.com so if you are reading this I love you, honest. It's just, I really REALLY love skydiving. Not that I don't really REALLY love you but....ok I know you wouldn't get it. I am sorry if you are reading this.I may not agree with what you have to say but i'll defend to the death your right to say it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The people on this web site are professionally certified smart asses. (Smart Ass Local #420) Pretty much -any- comment is subject to smart assed remarks and the original post in this thread is simply "too good" to pass up for most. Personally I just have to keep saying this over and over to myself, "I am a moderator. I am a moderator. I must NOT make smart assed comment to the newbie."

kbordson 8 #23 June 17, 2007 I'm hoping that you made that post with a little sarcasm and a touch tongue in cheek. Your last post did get you hit pretty hard by some of the wannabe skygods and you would be justified to hit back. There is some callous destoying of the young that exists in any sport/job.... but there is also some truth to what was being said. If you and her really had LOVE... don't throw that away. But if it was love, than she shouldn't be so controlling. (IMO) Many do quit after a couple of years... move on to the next cool thing, have a child and want to spend the formative years raising those young souls, or just become more like some of those that were slamming you and just sit your ass infront of a computer to piss others off (or maybe all of the options). There is some truth to what was said.... but that doesn't mean it's true for you. Only you can decide what will happen in your future. Good Luck (oh, and you might want to un-poke the lions) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
