LawnDart21 0 #1 June 9, 2005 You guys have totally taken my serious thread about a bowling "talk" and degenerated it into a perverted discussion about who has the biggest balls...........(Freud would have a field day with this one I am sure............) So that's it, I quit. I'm not bowling anymore. And I wanted ALL OF YOU to know, its because of YOU. It's not my fault that I am so handsome that no one takes my posts seriously. Just because I am a total hottie (and modest too), doesnt mean I don't have intelligent things to contribute. See you all on the planes, 'cause I'm done in with the lanes............... -- My other ride is a RESERVE. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GeordieSkydiver 0 #2 June 9, 2005 Don't quit, just stay away from BB.com for a while...if people are harsh here, its because they care, they don't want to see another bowler dead in the gutter. Its a shame to give up a sport you love because of some faceless assholes on the internet.Lee _______________________________ In a world full of people, only some want to fly, is that not crazy? http://www.ukskydiver.co.uk Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Obvoiusly your balls aren't as big as you thought. Seriously, don't quit bowling. Just make sure you wear shoes! Imagine dropping a ball on your big naked hot sexyass toe.

tigra 0 #5 June 9, 2005 Take a break for a while, but don't sell your ball and shoes! Maybe take that First Ball Class again with a more thorough instructor, one who takes your safety seriously! But remember, ultimately its up to YOU to become the safest bowler you can be! Other bowlers are counting on you not to throw your ball in their lane or drop it on their toes!

Mikki_ZH 0 #6 June 9, 2005 Please don’t quit. I know it’s sometimes hard being a hottie (I’m extremely handsome and hot as well). Get away from the Internet a few days and bowl again. Do as well some skydives (but stay away from any kind of instructors, we all know that they are a bunch of sexists which are only waiting to take advantage of you…) to distract yourself. And always remember, bowling is not about the people, its about bowls…Michi (#1068) hsbc/gba/sba www.swissbaseassociation.ch www.michibase.ch Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LawnDart21 0 #7 June 9, 2005 This whole thing got me thinking about a conversation I had with my wife recently as we were riding to altitude the other day: Wife: You know how to play golf right? Me: Yes. Wife: Would you teach me how to play? Me: No. Wife: Why not? Me: Because I love you. Wife: I love you too, So what? Me: I want you to keep loving me. -- My other ride is a RESERVE.

Rainbo 0 #8 June 9, 2005 Quote And always remember, bowling is not about the people, its about bowls… I have always taken how I teach people to do bowls seriously. Oh yeah, somrtimes I choke and they laugh but in the end it really is serious business. Aneurisms are always a potential threat if you do not do your bowl correctly...Rainbo TheSpeedTriple - Speed is everything "Blessed are those who can give without remembering, and take without forgetting."

scaryshari 0 #9 June 9, 2005 I understand and am right there with you. My injury was not my fault. I was not told that my ball was too big and that it could hurt me. My captivating beauty overwhelmed my BI/SO and he didn’t tell me. I’ve given up the sport because of the horrific consequences from my accident. I still have nightmares about it. I remember when I used to drive to the bowling alley with so much passion, thinking I could love nothing more – now, it’s nothing but a bad memory. I’ll never return – no regrets here. I don’t even miss the people or the beer rules. Maybe you can find your way back – but please be wary of bad advice or the lack thereof. Good luck. is Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bolas 5 #12 June 9, 2005 You just need to take a break and slow down. QuoteI have an instructor. He's a great bowler. He gave me my bigger ball. I can already do a 270 approach on it. Next week I'm gonna go to brand new alley and try a 360!!! Clicky That was me. I found a wormhole and traveled to next week. My first throw I decided to pull a 360. As I was approaching the line, I noticed a pool of sweat in my approach. Rather than go around it or abort my approach. I decided to swoop it like I'd seen people on the PBT do. Big mistake. My feet went out from under me and I spilled my beer. Not just a little beer but the whole cup. If that wasn't bad enough, I lost control of my ball and spilled three other people's beers. At that point I wanted to quit. I decided to hang onto my gear for a few months but I've gone back to a lighter ball and am starting over. I started slowly bowling again and just to be ultra careful, only bowl with half full beers. I found another wormhole and came back and saw your post. Just take time off. Don't quit. Stupidity if left untreated is self-correcting If ya can't be good, look good, if that fails, make 'em laugh. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rehmwa 2 #14 June 9, 2005 I'm sorry, did you say you're giving up "boweling" or "bowling"? Boweling is pretty nasty stuff. ...

Sebazz1 2 #15 June 9, 2005 It's quiters like you that bring a bad name to bowling. Lying face down and guttered is where people like you belong. Junior Bowling Gods! Argg, you people frustrate me. You probably have like 20 bowling trips and you're already doing 6 and 8 way bowling buddy nights and you wanna blame everyone but yourself that you almost guttered. I'd burn your balls 'cause they're tainted! Did that sound angry and malicious? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Vallerina 2 #17 June 9, 2005 I'm not going to beg you to keep bowling. If you want to quit, then quit. Most people who start bowling quit within a few years anyways. And no one should feel ashamed of quitting. Sometimes, it's hard to put the ball back in the bag when you're pressured in the lane. You gave it a shot. If it didn't work, maybe you'll find something else you enjoy!There's a thin line between Saturday night and Sunday morning Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ladyskydiver 0 #20 June 9, 2005 God, I love you guys. Just when I'm in need some some comedy all I need to do is look for the nearest bowling thread. Life is short! Break the rules! Forgive quickly!
