Why do whuffos walk on skydiving gear?
virgin-burner replied to JohnRich's topic in General Skydiving Discussions
around here, people usually DO respect gear and dont walk over it; but for some reason, they think it's ok to smoke a cigarette 3ft away. they will be told to please smoke next to an ashtray then.. only time someone walked over my lines was actually another jumper. and of course THAT guy that thought it was ok to rest his dirty shoes on my rig.. a jumper, too. “Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S.

Doing that search will also show that many have used simple mods to the slider to fix that very effectively. I have never jumped one, but would not be so quick to discount that experience of many others. Besides, PD says that there was never a problem with the original Sabre, any hard openings were due completely to packing technique. And PD is, on this issue, full of shit. They have a vested interest in everyone believing that they didn't market a canopy with a serious design flaw. I have jumped many Sabres, with the modded slider, using their packing instructions. They all, on occasion, will smack the shit out of you. There's a better way today. There are a lot of parachutes out there that don't have this inherit problem. The original Sabre is best relegated to duty as a car cover. maybe you are!? i put 200 jumps on mine and NEVER had a hard opening. maybe your packing sucks? “Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S.

oh yea, you're so much better than everyone else on here; let's hope a cop wont suspect you for something and put a bullet through your head or something similar.. “Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S. Thompson "No. Try not. Do... or do not. There is no try." -Yoda

Circumcision declared "An act of violence"
virgin-burner replied to Abedy's topic in Speakers Corner
care to list those hygenic reasons? Protect it from what? to protect it from rubbing against your boxers or jeans if you like going commando.. why, for fucks sake, do you have eyelids? even though i am on your side that is a bit of a loose argument, i doubt whichever animal(it might have been us i dont know) evolved to have a foreskin first was wearing to many armani boxers. the procedure is just completely unnecessary and americas opinion on it is just wierd although im yet to encounter a woman who cares either way so i think that whole 'women prefer it thing' is a myth anyway but you do agree that your gland is rather sensitive, right!? i can pinch needles in most parts of your body if i wont do it too hard, right? let's try only TOUCHING dickhead with a needle, or a thorn.. BTW, DONT INCLUDE evolution in SC, you'll get the bible-thumpers all in a rage over that! “Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S. Thompson "No. Try not. Do... or do not.

as i said, showers help with hygiene.. and those "complications" that you speak off are very rare. there's simply NO need for it! and for all i know, it's with most muslims and jews, even if they're only "3-day"-jews as you call them.. Sorry for quoting in full, but it's necessary. Under formal aspects, you are right. I tried to emphasis that it seems that most circumcisions around the world are mainly done for hygienic reasons. There may also be aspects of religion and/or tradition, though. If you refer to D/A/CH you're absolutely right since most circumcision there are performed on boys with Muslim belief. When it comes to Germany, there a many liberal Jews and the "3-Tage-Juden" (Michel Friedman referred to himself with this word, and so did Hendryk M. Broder regarding his father) and I think most of them don't have their sons circumcised for religious reasons in the first place. That's wild guessing, I know... alright, that religious/traditional thing i really have a problem with. not too long ago everyone got their "mandeln" removed, just because. they're actually a good indicator if you're suffering cancer, if for nothing at all.. my doctors also wanted to remove them, and my mom opposed that. same with my foreskin.. just because everyone's been doing something for no other reason than "uh, you know, uh, we've like, uh, have always been doing it!", sorry, that's nonsense.. and i've linked enough articles to prove that there is NO MEDICAL REASON to it, as long as it doesnt create problems! now to take it a little more personal, my foreskin isnt showing as one inch of skin over my errected, or even un-errected penis. if not so, maybe i would consider it too.. and be one of that fraction of guys WANTING it to get done.. but exposing your child (SOMEONE EVER THINKS OF THE CHILDREEEEN!?!?!?) to an operation and the risks involved, for NO-FUCKING-GOOD-REASON, is a fucking moron in my eyes.. you simply dont do an operation that is not necessary, be it for "traditional", "religious" or other (mostly stupid, IMHO) reasons.. and before anyone asks, i prefer about a billion times some a-cup toddlers before i'd move on to silicon-babes.. “Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S.

A friend of mine got circumcised in his early 20's for aesthetic reasons. well, if there's 1% of uncircumsised men actually experiencing problems.. your friend must be the fraction that does it because aesthetical reasons. “Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S.

it's there to protect your gland; oh wait, that probably only works with penises bigger than the size of a lipstick! “Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S. Thompson "No. Try not. Do... or do not. There is no try." -Yoda -
looks like the video i tried to look for was pulled..

Not true, it's not rare. Just ask your doc. He surely can tell you much more than I need to type now. Ick ... quoted from this article this article states that it's happening with 1% of un-circumsised males.. so you could save 99 penises out of a 100 from getting mutilated, unwillingly.. there are so many bible-thumpers around here, god here, bla-bla there, if your god is so wise, why wasnt he smart enough that your cock would appear "perfect" as it is and you didnt have the feeling you'd have to fuck around with his creation!? guess what, he got it right the first time around, you're just a bunch of bigots.. 12% of women will get breast cancer and 3% will die of it. Following the "health" logic, all girls should have their breasts removed before puberty - they are redundant; formula will work for feeding infants. scientists say it may come from tight clothing and especially wearing bras; i think it should be mandatory to run around nekkid on hot summer days for them. for every penis saved, there could be ten sets of boobies saved! “Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S.

Um, no. That works out to 6% of the total male population, given your 25/75 ratio. uhm, no. if ever 4th guy is circumsised, shouldnt the other three of the same four men have the problems i mentioned!? was a bit unclear maybe, i'll give you some slack, since u're obviously missing parts.. “Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S.

worldwide, one in four men is cirumsised; relative to that statistic, every 3rd out of 4 men should have excruciating pain and other problems. i dont think that's the case. “Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S. Thompson "No. Try not. Do... or do not. There is no try." -Yoda -

Hahahaha, if I weren't a site administrator that may find it's way into my sig line. For what it's worth, I am circumcised- but since I don't plan on having kids it's a non-issue for me. I've had no problems with my penis (apart from it controlling my brain on the odd occasion), so I couldn't care less. It's no different than piercing a child's ears though. By the way, I want my embelical chord back! well, i've never heard a kid asking "mommy, can we get myself circumsised, i think my cock is ugly the way it is!". the wish for ear-rings on the opposite, may come up rather early tough.. edited to add: from my side, please feel free to use that sig-line! “Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S.

had one for like my first 200 jumps; still have it, pretty convenient if your neptune runs out of power. never had any problems with it!

Maybe you could apply some logic and intelligence instead of trying to trying to smear anyone that doesn't share your view on circumcision. Circumcision is the norm in the US - your insistence that YOUR view is only correct one is the bigotry you so declaim, above. obviously you havent read any of the articles i linked, so any further discussion on the topic with you is unnecessary for me. as is circumsision. “Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S.

No more than Gosnell asked approval from any of the infants he aborted. an abortion typically takes place up to the 12th week of pregnancy; you wouldnt call a mass of cells an "infant". Gosnell wasn't typical. If you don't know that Gosnell was doing late (very late) 3rd term 'abortions', then maybe you shouldn't be commenting on it. You were - then kallend chimed in with asking a days-old infant permission to be circumcised. I provided another example where infants of the same age range were not asked permission. maybe you could come up with an explanation that i dont have to pull out google every 2nd post you make. it isnt typical to mutilate your child, yet you are for it. do you also support your gosnell then!? “Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S.
