[QUOTE=hajario] Jesus, youā€™re just as bad as him. [/QUOTE] Never fails to amaze me that no matter how ass-backwards wrong a pittee is someone will always come to his defense. Meh, Iā€™m sure Iā€™ve taken some apparently dumbass positions myself. Anyway, the subject of this rant was a socially maladjusted fucktard. While that sucks and all he needs to learn some kinda social skills at some point. Did you ever take him aside and tell him to cool it, **Swashy**? Some people are just dense. ---

[QUOTE=MaxTheVool] IIRC the OP is female. [/QUOTE] I can see where that might aggravate the jerkiness of the situation. I donā€™t play laser tag, but paintball is similar. In my experience, thereā€™s not a large number of women that playā€¦however, the ones that do play are often damned good at it. They ainā€™t on the mock-battlefield to go all girly. Theyā€™re out there to rip some ass, and they do it well. ---

Not that **Bricker** needs or wants any defense from me, but thatā€™s a fairly common joke. One person complains about something, perhaps with good cause, perhaps not, and a wiseass pops up with some variation of ā€œGot your ass kicked, huh?ā€. Donā€™t think itā€™s necessarily meanspirited, more of a playful ā€œgotchaā€. YMMV, of course. ---

[/QUOTE] Sure, I sort of got that that was the intent, but usually for it to be funny it has to be in some way relevant to the post, I guess. Like if it was about how this jerkface somehow caused them to lose, then it might be a ā€œgotchaā€. I just realized that the guy is actually on their team and they did lose, not sure how I misunderstood that the first time through. So now it makes a little bit more sense. ---

In school, I was for a while thrust into a small group of people who occasionally played a game of Risk. The guy who owned the board had a similar mindset. It was HIS game, and HE knew how to play, and HE was better than the rest of us, and HE was going to whip us all every time. It didnā€™t take long before we all formed an unspoken truce. We would all gang up on him every time, attacking only him until he was out of the game, so the rest of us could enjoy the rest of the game in peace. He was intensely pissed off when he realized what was going on. I seem to recall he threw a fit once or twice and trashed the board to prevent us from playing without him. ---

Iā€™d just like to comment on the existence of two pit threads on the first page with the word ā€œTwatā€ in the title. Not only had I thought that this word had fallen off the cuss word radar, but both of itā€™s usages were by females. This is regarded generally as a good thing to me. ---
