    DZ-chick-syndrome......[:/]
    Sounds like the girls who go out and pick up an R1 for their first bike becuase their BF said so and either end up dead or worse....

    Dumb question, why risk your life? I'm sure she is "cute" but well...why risk it?

    But maybe that's just me.



    I have knows plenty of stupid guys to go out and get an R1 too, one of them killed himself.

    by the way whats worse than death?

  7. I just dont get how you have a C license, decent amount of jumps, and are this cluless on how the gear is intended to work. Pretty scary if you ask me.

    Like stated 1,000,000 times in the past, you cutaway at or below 1000 AGL, the odds of your AAD even firing are slim to none, let alone getting your reserve out.

    Do yourself and others you jump with a favor, learn your gear, understand its functionality and make logical choices. You choose to jump with a bum shoulder, take as many precautions as you can.

    also, WHY ARE YOU "AADLESS" FOR A FEW MONTHS?

    Which by the way, your above statement should read "Besides, I was pointing out spelling..." but nice try idiot.



    You wrote that, published it to a website, and you have the gall to snipe at anyone's grammar?

    Also, personal attacks are frowned upon by the admin and moderators of this website. Please refrain from using them. Particularly when you seem to be inviting others to comment on how they apply more to you than their target.



    Yeah, and flat tops are frowned upon by anyone that is not still living in 1983.

    Commas typically precede the word "and".



    Here, I'll fix it for you.

    Commas typically precede the word "and."

    As you see the period is enclosed in the quotation marks chief. By the way, to say they are commonly used in that way is 100% incorrect.

    Besides, I was point out spelling here, not grammar, though I see nothing wrong with it.



    Read your post again, you said my spelling and grammar were piss poor. Which by the way, your above statement should read "Besides, I was pointing out spelling..." but nice try idiot.

    Quote

    You have addressed me both as "idiot", and "chief". I'm not particularly offended by either, but piss-poor spelling really burns my ass.



    Again, commas and periods go inside quotation marks.

    WOW, I feel so empowered now that I pointed out your horrible grammar.

    EDITED FOR: Oh wait, I don't have to edit my posts like an idiot.

  10. what I don't understand, is how the hell the price of a few rigs/canopies can have you in that much trouble? Thats how fine of a line you are operating with? Just refund the money, probably a total of what 10,000-15,000? If thats enough to put you out of business, then maybe it is time for you to close the doors.

    ..... Reason........ West, and the church is no longer the state, and has not been for a long, long, long time. Too bad this cocksucker doesn't have a clue.



    Reason is capitalized, West is also, there is also a comma after state, know as the Harvard comma, you used it in the wrong context.

    NOT about brutalizing anyone who would not "submit"



    sound familiar? i.e. you will burn in hell if you reject christ.

    Quote

    ps - Your spelling and grammar are poor.



    That is usually what people resort to when they can't counter a point. Keep correct peoples grammar on the internet chief, that really shows how superior you are.

    If priests and other Christian clergy can quote the OT, why shouldn't the rest of us?



    Because like MOST christians (99%), if the argument does not favor their opinion, then it is not valid. They find ways to skirt around valid points by twisting things around. I gave up a long time ago debating christian nutbags. Its a complete waste of time, they are shut off to anything you have to say, they are ignorant in so many ways its honeslty laughable.

    Take the OP here, this idiot doesn't know the first thing about Islam, yet he hates it. How can this be? Because what you read about or hear about on the news, thats what you base your opinion on? There are extremests in every relegion, get over it.

    People always quote the Old Testament when bashing Christianity. One has little to do with the other, but most folks don't get it.



    Are you really that stupid? For one, to adopt one and not the other is a complete joke and a mockery of christianity. Both "books" are said to be viewed as sacred scripture, you should ask "god" for his forgiveness for your blasphemy.

    You know that the new testament you so blindly follow is a translation right? As in, you are trusting that it was translated with no slight in mind, no spin one way or the other and nothing lost. Let me break it down for you in real life terms. The bible is a bunch of horseshit, written to control weak minded idiots by use of fear and to make a lot of money in the process. When you die, you rot in the ground chief, nothing more nothing less. There is nobody sitting on a cloud in a white robe. There is no hell, no devil. People choose religion for a variety of reasons, the biggest and I'll quote some of my idiot christian friends, "If you're right (meaning me) then big deal, If I'm right (christian) then it IS a big deal. Nice little security policy, but meanwhile you tote around shoving this stupid piece of literature down everyone’s throat like you are some supreme being. Honestly, the way you judge people and other religions is the biggest hypocrisy. If you are a christian, then let "god" be the judge. You should just keep your mouth shut, keep tithing that money and let all of us "sinners" live our lives in peace.

    Always thought spending $50,000 on demo rigs would be a good investment, but it is very addicting and hard to stop buying more and more. At least i now have a rig, or 20 to jump ;)



    who's money did you buy them with?

    By-the-way, do you rip off people in Australia that can see you in person easily? Or just people halfway accross the globe?

    If you think y ur comments to Steve1 were appropriate, you need to get a grip on your self.

    If you won't say it in person, don't say it here.



    1. Are you Steve's boyfriend? Why do you care?
    2. Was my comment really worth freaking out about?
    3. I would say that to his face, or anyone else for that matter. Nothing pisses me off more than a judgmental, hypocritical person.

    Finally, YOU are the one that needs to get a grip. You told a moderator to fuckoff basically over a comment that wasnt even directed towards you, take a deep breath and relax chief.

    Unless you also post under the name liftedtitan, I think you missed my point entirely.

    Nobody should be doing what S/he just did.



    Dude, what exactly are you talking about? Please educate me on what is so bad, it warrants you to swear at a moderator? Anger management called, they need you to go to some more meetings, geesh.

    You're missing the point, but I won't diverge the thread.



    You did that already when you jumped all over Mark. You are missing my point. One can forgive without subjecting themselves to further abuse by remaining in the situation, and I've never met a Christian who claimed to be perfect. He can forgive or not. That's his business, and you have no idea what's in his heart. You're not being helpful to this thread. He was.



    He was being helpful by stating he will never forgive his father? How is that helpful? My point is, don't bring stupid religioninto the equation when you yourself aren't following one of its main derivatives.

    I was only pointing out the hypocracy in the statement, trust me though, IMO MOST Christians are the biggest hypocrites out there.
    Moriuntur omnes, sed non omnes vixerunt.

  21. I don't know shit when it comes to rigging, but wouldn't the last thing you would want is a reserve that has to be CRAMMED in the container? I know you want it tight, but that just sounds dangerous.

    but as you know...there was a major fkup with a Racer in my world this week.



    What happened?

    Also Nancy, safest track record? How can you make that statement? Based on what data.

    My dad will see the gates of hell itself before he ever sees me again. He had his last chance a few years ago, but blew it. I know how it feels to be rejected like that. I regret his pain, but not my decision.



    So much for forgivness. This is spoken like a true hypocritical born again Christian. pffffff what a joke.




    Get over yourself. It is perfectly okay to decide that someone is too toxic to be in your life. Mark obviously regrets having to cut someone out of his life and cause that kind of pain to someone, but sometimes it's necessary for your own health when someone refuses to get help.

    Sometimes part of acknowledging that you can't control someone else's actions is acknowledging that you don't have to stand around and watch and let them hurt you either.

    .


    I don't see anything hipocritical in these statements. If a person is hurt badly enough, how are they supposed to feel. It may take years to let go of that anger. Religion may not play a role in that....



    Saying you will never forgive someone in the same sentence as alluding that you are a Christian is the biggest hypocracy.

    By the way, I am NOT a Christian for the record.

    But no more religeous talk.

    TO THE ORIGINAL POSTER:

    I have/had 3 grandparents (2 dead), 2 parents, 5 aunts and uncles and 2 cousins that are horrible alcholoics/adicts. I have a good amount of experience with it so believe me I know what you are going through.

    1. Be greatful the desease has not taken hold of you yet. Hopefully it never wiill.

    2. It sounds so cliche, but if your dad doesn't want help, or think he needs it, he will NEVER get better. All you can do is be there for him, if you choose, and tell him there is tons of help available.

    3. Sometimes people need hard lessons to wake up. For some, its something small like getting into a fight when the're drunk and not wanting to do that again. Some its getting arrested etc. and some its loosing everything, including family.

    4. Have you tried an intervention with him?

    5. Finally, sometimes when you leave someone alone, meaning your mother leaves, his brother, you, EVERYBODY, it stops enabling him. You or your mother maybe all he cares about, and if the drinking is not pushing you away then why should he care?

    Good luck, I have attended numerous AA meetings, seminars etc. with family. Maybe you could offer the same.
