Aye, fair play, I was just being sarcastic! I'd personally still regard it as more of an activity though, because, as you said, it's not done competitively in this country. It's debatable though, much like darts. I wouldn't say it's extreme to be fair. Maybe bollock-naked paintball, but not regular paintball Edited June 6, 2012 by the_bully_wee 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the_bully_wee Posted June 6, 2012 Share Posted June 6, 2012 (edited) Get yourself a paintball gun. Shoot yourself in the foot. Tell me it's not sore My mate went a while back and took 3 point-blank hits on the same bit of the inside of his thigh, it looked absolutely excruciating and was pretty off-putting. I've not actually been paintballing, but I plan to go ASAP! My other mate rammed into the back of me at go-karting and gave me a bloody agonisingly sore neck, it was a yellow flag and he, being the idiot that he is, didn't notice it and beasted it down a ramp at full speed, careering into the back of me Edited June 6, 2012 by the_bully_wee 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gav-ffc Posted June 6, 2012 Share Posted June 6, 2012 I had a customer who thought as it was the queens Jubilee the free evening and weekend calls we offer this should mean he should get free calls all 4 days of the Jubilee. Oh dear, he was gutted to be told that it was still only evening and weekend calls that are free. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I was 17 I used to be able to take a ball round five players with a cigarette in one hand an a bottle of Pulse Cider in the other.

Turbo_dee Posted June 7, 2012 Share Posted June 7, 2012 Get yourself a paintball gun. Shoot yourself in the foot. Tell me it's not sore Went paintballing a while back, and it was being supervised by Marines and they were fucking arseholes. They handed out the 'helmet' that were used to protect the entire front of your head, but they gave me a massive one that didn't fit. After tightening it to its full extent, it was still loose and to keep it in place it had to be held. I asked repeatedly for a new helmet, but was ignored and we were sent on our way to a large area of mud, with few obstacles. After bravely trying to just enjoy myself and shoot, it soon became apparent that doing anything other than lying hidden away somewhere was asking for a death sentence. The hand I was using to hold my mask was by this point numb, and I managed to get hit in my eye, the inside of my mouth, all over my head and inside my ear before giving up and lying down, half submerged in a stream trying to avoid getting shot. I was bleeding from a few places on my head and the taste of paint and blood in my mouth was horrible. The Marines were shouting like f**k at me because I wasn't getting right into the action, and were shooting me from behind trying to force me to move. Fucking p***ks. Can't stop laughing at that PS - She's hot. I can't stop looking at that. I feel kinda guilty having the thoughts I'm having right now! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sweet Pete Posted June 7, 2012 Share Posted June 7, 2012 I believe a certain P&B'er had cans of Breaker pitch-side during the Fives tournament a few years ago A particular P&B user, who accuses me of being a jakey, keeps pints beside the pitch at the p&b fives and goes to the bar between matches. You know who you are. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
