Glitch 0 #11 August 9, 2011 Gee... guess it's my bad then. I looked at the OP's profile and seen no mention of any license, much less a D. That, combined with you were responding to me on your initial post... Can you see where that might be a tad confusing, to anybody reading the thread?Randomly f'n thingies up since before I was born... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nutz 0 #13 August 9, 2011 You guys better be careful - it is Mothra you are talking about. "Don't! Get! Eliminated!" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mothra 0 #14 August 9, 2011 Okay, I've straightened out that d license thing. I'm a new jumper, and new to this web site, so I'm still figurin' out how to do things here. Glad everyone's having fun at my expense - that's okay. But yes, I AM Mothra, and I can kick Godzilla's butt, so you should be careful about that.

missbrz 0 #15 August 9, 2011 that'll be something else you get used to. Everybody as fun at everybody else's expense. don't take it too personally or you'll go crazy but seriously, there really is no rhyhm or reason to the handshake. You'll notice a bunch of people do it differently too. The only reason I can think of is as I said above. We just really like to touch eachother.

The only reason I can think of is as I said above. We just really like to touch eachother. We had a discussion about this several years ago (more than I care to mention). It can mean a bunch of things - have a good jump, build team spirit, etc. It could quite possibly be the last time you ever see or interact with that person. For me, it is my way of saying my peace, thanking you for jumping with me and letting everyone on the bird know I love them. Even if I hate your ass on the ground...
