IJWTS Thread #4

CROSSBOWS? Those are cool... but I like longbows better... crossbows scare me a little.

I'll take either. I used to shoot longbow all the time, until I had to sell my bow. *sniff sniff teardrops*

Crossbows can be intimidating at first, but after a while you get used to them.

 

[thekwizzitiveone]

Yeah, I would get used to them... I've just had experience with them trying to pull my arm out of my socket... which makes them scary to me. I wish I had my own longbow... that would be amazing. I'm sorry you had to sell yours!
I took an archery class and they mostly used longbows... because that's all they had. They brought in two crossbows and we all got to try them. Woo, scary stuff. Ha, ha.

I've shot archery ever since I could pull the string back...I just don't like shooting out here where I live because of the wind. Crossbows shoot the bolt faster, so the wind isn't as much of a factor (in my experience). But yes, some crossbows will pull your arm out of the socket.

Still, if my opponent has a sword, I'll take a bow, thank you very much.

I agree, the bow is mightier than the sword.

Well, mainly, it just means I can poke 'im from a longer distance than he can poke me.

Catapaults still rule the day...

And you can really tell that I'm starting to get tired....

Ha, ha. The only catapult I've ever used was one I've made myself with a couple of spoons... and I really don't think that would be better than a bow. Yours is probably one of those big wooden awesome ones, huh? Because I would believe that that's better than a sword...
Although, aren't those tied back with a rope or something to keep them from shooting? Because if they are, then you might need a sword to cut the rope, which would make the sword VERY useful to you and possibly more useful than the catapult if it takes a sword to make the catapult work.

IJWTS - Goodnight, Rob. Goodnight, rest of the CF world... even though it seems that Rob and I must have been the only ones awake for the last couple of hours. I think I'm going to stay awake and watch a movie... Hmmm...

 

[Bitnd12]

IJWTS that reading about crossbows and longbows was interesting and, if I may, I'd like to put my vote in for longbows. Go medieval England.

 

[Tink]

IJWTS -

 

[deliciousBass]

IJWTS LOL. A sham is just a fancy pillow case - I doubt bachelors use those.

IJWTS Hmm... there was this giant square like thing that had the back of a pillow case, was that the sham? If that's the case, it's pretty feminine and I definitely won't use it. I hope whoever I marry won't insist on having a "sham" or whatever.

IAWTS it's really annoying when you go throw a thread of just two people flirting. Like seriously, go chat on IM or something, or talk on the phone. I will try to avoid the appearance of that as well so I don't get on other people's nerves now that I have experienced it as a bystander.

anyway...

I can't believe my co-worker invited so many people I hate to my birthday luncheon on Thursday. I mean... what the....................heck. My BOSS is going to be there? :choke:



I have to pretend like I actually like her? Ugh.

IJWTS it's time to make coffee.

 

[soccerdad66]

IJWTS - I usually have to make the coffee here too, at least in our kitchen. Our floor has at least 4 kitchens I know of.

 

[dluvs2trvl]

IJWTS - I'm already tired and my day is just beginning

 

[soccerdad66]

IJWTS - D's avatar pic is so cute.

 

[Redstiletto]

IJWTS-I am going to the dr today i think.

IJWTS I'm learning about a new product line we are repping now.

 

[soccerdad66]

IJWTS - I got frosty the snowman in my head. You know how certain words trigger thoughts on something.

 

[555onetwothreefour]

IJWTS: people make me frustrated.

 

[Redstiletto]

IJWTS - I have a grumpy little boy

IJWTS this product training is booo-riiiiiiing.
