Wait, when you were a kid, was that pre or post rapid multi filling water balloons?
Cause you are only a hardcore killer if you've filled 100+ water balloons one at a time, in one sitting.
These are facts.
Now I feel I missed out on something.

We only had a couple of water balloons. Me and my twinsy stole them from our cousin when he wasn't looking. Marvel at our heist skills.

Consider me marveled at your heist skills. And the only thing you missed out on was the rainbow of color on the spigot left behind by the bands of all the water balloons that popped while you were still filling them.

As long as they aren't the type of balloons we found on the alley behind our houses when I was 6 and sister was 4... Mother laughed while trying to scold us.

Took me many years to understand why.

Peace :eek:
Just to be sure, sometimes I can be great at not seeing the obvious: Adult waterballons?

Dunno, there might enough of ex military on this thread it would be possible.
have I ever told you the story how I was on guard duty for barracks in bumfuck nowhere on a boring Tuesday in September, when we suddenly got 'this is not a drill' orders to gear up to full combat equipment and prepare for base defense? Goodbye Fatigues and P8, hello flak vest, helmet and G3. ...

Which could have more than a little to do with the pain induced by actual clubs...

Better so, most likely the won't send their lawyers after being rejected the first time...
dunno if HA has/had at that time clubhouse at UK. court would been next step and that could have cost more than changing heroine's name after 1st issue.

Definitely better position then a conscripted private (qualified for P1, P8, Uzi, G3 + G36 and MG3 (a poorly disguised MG42)... giving away the army I served in, doesn't it?

Yes, I spent a lot of time in your Germany. I was deployed there every 6 weeks for two weeks at a time and once for 6 weeks. I don't know if the planner for that war game was an idiot or a genius. They made a war game in the middle of Oktoberfest so they shut down the war game for a week but kept everyone there.

idiot or genius depends if he participated, also at that time oktoberfest wasn't that known outside germany and close by unless was enthuasist, nowadays it's globally known.

Never been there. Overpriced tourist trap. You can buy the same beer at each supermarket for a fraction whileit offers not much else then any other local funfair... only more rides and tents... have i mentioned overpriced?
