flat/inverted nipples?
Posted:
8/23/2009 1:12:10 AM
Wouldn't bother me a bit. They are part of you, if someone doesn't like it you are better off without them. Boobs are boobs, some are small, some are big, who cares? they still serve the same puropse, flat/inverted nipples and all! The rest still feels and looks the same.
OP, don't give it another thought, they are FINE.

spelling mistakes!
Posted:
8/19/2009 3:14:17 AM
I'm the worst at this, I'm actually contiguous!. I can be talking to friends on MSN or MIRC they start off with great spelling, then with all my typos they start making mistakes, i swear its an ITD (Internet transmitted disease).
I can totally agree with the keyboard making me dyslexic too. I swear they need to invent a keyboard that doesn't have keys that seem to move before you hit them and give horrible spelling mistakes. Thankfully my friends know my spelling is horrible, as long as they can understand it, they don't mind, yes they have told me this too :)

Why Dont men like going out socialising?
Posted:
7/4/2009 5:25:41 AM
I have to agree, if i have had a busy week or a lot to do on my weekend i can't fit it in. Then the other side is: ok, i go, then find out i have absolutely nothing in common with anyone there and I'm sitting their thinking "ooh boy, what have i done????" When you go out with a bunch of friends you at least know you have things in common to talk about with no awkward silence.
Yes i know, you can't make more friends if you don't meet new people in the first place. I know I'm pretty easy going, and would *manage*. I remember seeing an event setup for wine tasting a week or 2 back. I'm not a big drinker so something like that doesn't appeal to me, i'd end up being the driver for the evening getting all the trashed people home (done that before now....).
Hey that's my view, others may see it all different but that's their choice, as it is mine. If i knew people would be there my own age, sure! why not, you can't have too many friends.
I'm sorry if i seem rude, but say the people there were in their 40's to 50's, i would have absolutely nothing in common with them.
Let the flaming begin! *hides*

How do you tell a close friend that you want to be more?
Posted:
6/21/2009 3:44:22 AM
^^ i did that, ruined a great friendship. I thought she felt the same, but obviously not.
Just be very careful, you can loose the friendship if one finds it too hard to be around someone they "love" and the other doesn't feel the same. One usually pulls away.
Good luck OP

Guys don't want to be just friends, but girls do, why is that?
Posted:
6/20/2009 1:39:53 AM
Yep, been in this situation before too. I got the whole "you are my best friend" and "i miss hanging out with you". I'm sure for some, they can go back to "just friends" after one feels an attraction and the other doesn't. I wish i could, but when the feelings are there its really hard to just spend time together as friends. I have actually been yelled at for not spending time with a girl after this happened!!! I pointed out that i made time for her, i changed my plans to suit HER, i'm not about to do that now when she is off hitting another guy. I got accused of making her feel guilty, all i did was not change my plans to see her 4 times a week like we used to. I'm not about to suck it all up so she can feel all happy, i wasn't rude or abusive about it i just told it how it was, nothing more. She would get mad i'd try and say sorry but got shut down, now i wish i ended it months ago as i had an out. She said you are one of my best friends, would you want a full on relationship or nothing at all? i wish i said full on relationship as it would have ended there and then, saved me 2 months of heart ache and a crap load of txt messages!
With that said, i do have female friends that neither of us have any attraction and we get along great! its nice having a female point of view on subjects and they make for good company, i'd never give them up.
As soon as there is a one sided attraction i think the friendship is pretty well doomed. With the above situation, when she told me, i knew things would probably end badly, and ooh boy they sure did! and fast. She went from the sweetest person ever to a pit bull! OMG a side i never thought she had, it made walking away a little easier.
Some may call me immature, that's fine. Yes she did have qualities i liked as a friend, but also qualities i wanted in a partner. We got along so well, i thought we would have been great together, talked all the time, hung out a LOT, never argued, i liked her for her, ooh well her loss.

Is it wrong to say I don't want and cannot be JUST friends?
Posted:
6/10/2009 12:47:36 AM
I agree, you were rite.
You don't need the emotions of being around her as only a "friend" and she doesn't see you as you see her. It saves a LOT of heart ache, i wish i had the guts to do the same, it would have saved me a lot of pain. Hey, you live and learn.
I read another post recently that said the best way was to cut off all contact, if she wants more she will come to you, if not its her loss. You deserve better than that.

How often have you been pleasantly surprised by your date?
Posted:
6/7/2009 12:18:26 AM
Recently when i met a girl off here i was very surprised, she was just as lovely in person as she was on the net. Her picture didn't do her justice, she was far prittier in person.
I have yet to meet someone that i think OMG what have i done?????

If a girl you TRIED to date made out with your friend, would you be angry at her?
Posted:
6/6/2009 5:24:17 AM
Sounds like my situation too, if he likes you more than a friend being turned down doesn't make his feelings just stop. I know the girl i was spending a LOT of time with didn't think of me the same way, i had to pull back. We went from hanging out 2-3 times a week, txt and e-mails all day to a message on MSN once every week or 2. I got messages like i miss hanging out with you, but how can you be around someone that you had feelings for and you know they don't feel the same? She was a great friend, but i cant see it getting back to how it was..... I feel like i was simply company at the ice skating rink.
The making out with his friend i think did the most damage, same basic situation here again! That one is the main reason i still can't make time to just hang out with her. Childish? maybe, but how i deal with it is my own choice, we do what we have to.
Give him time, hopefully he will get past it and things can get to how they were.

How many people have you shagged... oops, I mean MET in 'real life'?
Posted:
6/6/2009 4:58:41 AM
I was actually called a POF wh0re (jokingly... i think...) by someone i used to spend a lot of time with that i met on here. I should have said the same to her, but wasn't quick enough and wasn't looking for a fight, ahh well. Pretty sure i have met 6 people off here since i joined, so on average about one every 1.5 months. Considering i met 2 within a few weeks (just as friends mind you, nothing more) i see how it may seem.
The number may be higher if people would take the time to respond. I'm not asking them to marry me, its simply a chat nothing more. You can never have too many friends, i have made a few from POF and wouldn't give that up for anything.

Posted:
6/2/2009 4:32:43 AM
I have met i think, 6 in real life, made a few friends i have not met in person too.
As for the relationships with the 6 meetings... Hard to say, there were *dates* but most were not official, others were just meetings.
I haven't had any nasty surprises, great conversation and company. Nothing that shocked me too much. There was one that talked about her exes in a bit more detail than i needed though O_O. And no, there was no bumping of uglies there, but.......
The last girl i met was really nice, better than i expected actually. There can be quite a difference between how they appear online and in person. She was just a freindly and chatty in person as she was online, made for great conversation. Prettier than her online pics too.
I figure its a good way of making new friends, but also you can loose them too. Out of the 6 people i met, 2 i don't consider friends any more :( It keeps things interesting i guess.

Would you do the naked thing?
Posted:
5/30/2009 1:36:35 AM
The only way people would pay me for a naked picture, is for me to keep my clothes ON!!! They don't need the mental scars of seeing me in my birthday suit o_O
I'm sure there are others that know they look good and would like a picture of how things used to look. But would that be depressing if you ever looked at it later in life? thinking thats how i used to be, what happened?

I think its a bit harsh, but as others have pointed out, it has to do with the circumstances. If the other person was say, too clingy and won't let go or will makes a huge scene etc. you simply want it over with and not do it in person. The biggest problem things don't end well, there aer always things left un-said that both sides want to get out but don't always.
I got a kick to the nads over MSN one day that my pc was left on, get home to a wonderful message! She went on to say i thought of all people you would be happy for me (ditched me for someone else). Don't you still want to be my friend? Oddly enough, we haven't spoken since. Well she has tried, but i refuse to answer back. Been almost 6 months, not missing her one bit!

women
Posted:
5/12/2009 5:07:39 AM
I think most of us have been burnt at one point, i know i was. I took her out, paid for dinner and activities, drove her around (she had no car) i was basically her entertainment. Someone to hang out with and chat to, i was simply used then tossed aside. I got the news over MSN of all things when i wasn't even at home. Her reply was "of all people i thought you would be happy for me" (happy for her finding someone else), WTF.
In a way glad she is now out of my life, theer are far better women out there OP, i found one that i thought was perfect, but not to be, at least i wasn't used this time though. You learn quickly not to make the same mistakes the second time round.
Good luck in searching, don't give up!

Aussie accents
Posted:
5/10/2009 3:53:26 AM
I have noticed the country aussie accent too. I can't describe it, but when you hear it you go yep, country/outback one! I can't say i have ever noticed different accents from different parts of Australia, but i'm sure there are slight differences in our slang words.
LOL skeeters, i'm sitll giggling at that one.
As for the Tasmania crack, i was talking to one of our customers from work. I called her up and said this is Australia calling! she wasn't amused :( I'd love go go and see it, especially in summer to escape some of Brisbanes heat.

Do guys get scared away by too many emails?
Posted:
5/6/2009 4:29:58 AM
I like chatting, no such thing as too many messages for me. A girl i was spending time with, we used to e-mail at least 20 times a day. Not a whole lot to do at work, so we send an e-mail, nothing specific but just chatting. The previous message on every few minutes, what are you doing now? and now? that would drive me crazy but general chat is great for me. Just don't send 10 e-mails without any replies saying why haven't you replied? are you upset? chances are i'm too busy or my net is down. I'm not ignoring you.
Thats just me, i love to chat just don't send a pile of messages in a row and expect a reply instantly.

Posted:

Not all guys have bum fluff, i don't have any to speak of. Not that i have been looking with a mirror or anything, no seriously!. I have never been a hairy person, which i think is a good thing, I don't want to look like a wookie when i take my shirt off, or shed all over the place *shudder*.
How do you people think up these topics? not sure whats worse, that people think them up or the fact i'm happy to read and post replies :)

u can't have a plutonic friendship with opposite sex
Posted:
5/2/2009 2:10:05 AM
I think its possible, but if one developes feelings for the other i think its doomed.
I met a girl on POF a few months ago, we got along really well, hung out 3-4 times a week, just firends. e-mailed and txt multiple times a day, we got along so well and had heaps of fun when we went out. Then admitted i had feelings for her, from there it just went down hill and fast. Now we talk maybe once a week, see eachother every 2 weeks or so, its a total mess.
This was all after she held my hand a few times at ice skating, plus other things that i obviously mis-read as more than friends.... The joy of mixed signals!
If there is no attraction to each other i think friendship isn't an issue, i have a few female friends that i see as only friends and i wouldn't give them up for anything.

Exercise for dummies.

4/21/2009 1:24:28 AM
I was having a drink while reading your post then choked on it! My mum is a chocoholic too....
I found that cutting back on what i was eating and no more soft drink did the job. Why not harass some friends to go for walks with you? they are always fun, and a good chance to chat about the week. Before you know it you have done a few k's.
Or...... Take up a new sport! i can't recommend ice skating though, you kinda want the padding on your butt to cushion the falls, believe me, i know *rubbs butt*.

simple diy instructions , your experiences ?
Posted:
4/4/2009 2:43:50 AM
I must be one of the rare few that can actually assemble things O_O. Instructions aren't always used, but if its complicated they sometimes are. I'm sure we have all had the kits with a zillion screws and when you get to the end you find that the ones left are too short for where they are meant to go then you need to find the rotten things!
I am good at doing a 5 minute repair job, well a job that should take that long. Then 2 hours later get it finished after breaking off a bolt then having to drill it out..... I know swearing at it doesn't help with finishing the job, but boy does it make you feel better!
I remember a mate that works for Telstra, his was taught if "it doesn't fit, bash it" Thats where the hammer comes in really handy.

Friendship, hang out, activity partner, its all the same.....
Posted:
3/8/2009 3:29:53 AM
I agree it can be a little confusing, some people put down *dating* and then mention about freindship. Or friends and go on to say they are after a relationship but want frineds first (which i do agree). Its just hard to know EXACTLY what someone is after.
The joys of dating sites hey?

i realy like her
Posted:
2/11/2009 4:18:25 AM
I'm sort of in the same situation. I met a girl from here, we have been out 4 or 5 times so far and i really, really like her. We have talked and she has her reasons for not wanting a relationship rite now which i understand (details don't matter) , not that something may not come out of it later on. If you have a connection with this girl, i would still go on *dates* or hanging out with her. I know i have been doing the same as we really enjoy each others company and have heaps of fun together.
I know you would just like to know where you stand and if you should move on and keep looking. If you feel you have a connection don't you think its worth spending a little time and effort to see where it may lead? At the very least, you have a good friend. As i said, i'm in the same situation, but i feel this girl is really worth the extra time and see where it leads, i just hope we end up together...... You may think the same about your girl, don't give up too easily!

Online Dating - Best and Worst Experiences
Posted:
2/10/2009 3:49:58 AM
I can't say i have had a *worst date* They have all been good, its just how some ended up a few weeks/months later...... I wish i knew what the future was going to be to avoid the initial meeting....
Anyway, the best has to be a first meet at south bank a few weeks back. We arranged to meet at 10am, she was a little early..... It was REALLY hot, when i got there she had a bottle of water waiting for me! We walked to the city for an early lunch which she refused to let me pay for! We didn't stop talking the whole time, it had to be 3-4 hours but it went so fast. We had an amazing walk, still a little hot but we sweatted together and didn't burn. We have been out a few times since and continues to be amazing company. She even has me seriously considering taking up ice skating! i have been once and she did a great job of preventing me falling over, i had an awesome time and really want to go again. I just can't believe how sweet and caring she is, I hope she stays a part of my life for a long time to come. Yes, thats her post a few lines up :) she beat me to posting!!!

Do people actually meet on this site???
Posted:
1/25/2009 7:02:42 PM
I have made a few friends and have met 2 of them in person. I have been on here for maybe 3 months? So yes, people do actually meet up. It may be a little akward at first as they can be totally different in person than online. I met one girl a few days back. She was just as lovely in person as she was online and on the phone, no regrets so far!
It may take a little time to meet someone you connet with, but be patient.

what do you think about this?
Posted:
1/24/2009 9:41:42 PM
I for one think you you did the rite thing. If i was in the same situation i'd like to know! I know your friend will be upset, but its better to know now and not later. Even worse if she found out you knew and said nothing. I have been caught in a situation that no matter what you say you are the one in trouble..... Thats when you think why did i tell her? but in the long run, its the best call.
Good luck sorting your friend out OP.

Are you shallow?
Posted:
1/16/2009 10:06:52 PM
I don't think i am, i'm happy to get to know someone and make up my own mind. I don't see everyone as a potential partner just from looks. Sure you see a girl thats pretty and you think wow, but that doesn't mean they have much of a personality or a match for yours. I like to give anyone a chance, worst case you get a friend out of it.
But hey, thats just me.

The stats didn't show how many people were injured by guns, only deaths. I'd like to know how many gun shot wounds there are in America vs Australia.

Yeah i have heard about that, its their right to "bare arms". I know i'd feel safer if i "carried" in a dangerous area, but i'm sure others would also be armed. But if no one was allowed to carry, it would be far safer, so its a catch 22 situation. I'd hate to feel i needed a firearm to keep myself safe walking down the street. Someone pulls a gun on you, you then need to access yours then draw then fire, as soon as the "bad person" with the gun saw you moving he would have heaps of time to kill you anyway so whats the point?
I have heard a story of a shooter that carried a gun, not sure if he still does but he did once. If he was caught he would be locked up so fast! Just because we can own guns and use them at the range doesn't mean we are allowed to carry them on the streets!!!!!!! Don't ever think a gun owner is altomatically allowed to keep one under his coat in Australia, i know no one said anything about it i'd just like to point it out is all.

I have to agree, everyone i have told that i shoot hasn't had a problem some were eger to come have a go too. I don't believe people should be armed in public like they do in America and i don't think we should be armed for an invasion either. I do know some people at the range that own guns just because they can, they attend just enough shoots to be allowed to own their guns. Other members that are legit attend many shoots as they enjoy the sport and don't attend just to meet the requirements set out by weapons licensing.
Brizguy - don't tell me that! i ordered a 2nd hand buckmark just before x-mas that only had one mag, the comp i will be using it for really needs 4, 5 is even better (full box of ammo). Waiting on the PTA to arrive. Sure, would be nice to meet up! What club are you with? i'm at SSAA but have shot at COB and Metro.

Brizguy - double taps are fun, i'm not really good doing them with my .22, its a walther P22, horrible trigger. My .38 super race gun does a fine job though, it was built for IPSC/steel with an awesome trigger, smooth and light. My mate at steel a few weeks back timed me when i emptied my mag. The splits were .09 of a second!!! Not super acurate but making lots of noise and doing it fast and IN STYLE is fun. I sound like a real redneck don't i? Better go back to polishing my guns on the porch.
I'm sure people will read my profile and see the posts about guns and go OMG gun freak stay away! But i guess its a part of my life, some people think its bad, so be it its still a fully legal sport.

So there was a shoot out, do you think the pistols they used were registered? After the ban, the only "illegal" pistols the police knew about were the ones registered with weapons licensing by licensed shooters, i owned one that was too large and dangerous! My new one has more energy than the old one had but legal, go figure!. Do you think the local bikie gang thought ooh no, this one is too short, so its now illegal, ooh the calibre is too large, i must surrender it!. Any firearm that was not registered could be handed in but no money was given for it, only registered guns were bought back, the others could be surrendered without the owner being charged.
I have never seen stats on LEGAL firearms that have been used for crime, i'm sure some do get stolen from time to time but i bet thats nothing compared to what is smuggled in.
Are you aware to buy ammunition from a gun shop in QLD you MUST provide a valid shooting licence? You can't just wonder in off the street and pick up a box of 9mm ammo. There is a way around it, but i'm not going to say it on an open board. If a member of the public without a valid shooting licence is in possession of live ammunition you can be charged as far as i'm aware. Firearms by law bust be stored with ammo seperate, so a robber gets the guns, they won't have ammo to go with them.

Getting even or holding a grudge... which would you do?
Posted:
1/14/2009 12:59:34 AM
Its easy to say just let it go, i'm in the same situation. I'm not a mean person so i can't go get revenge, i can't even tell her to never talk to me again, i was so tempted to send a txt "good for you, never talk to me again" but i didn't..... This was a so called friend too which makes it even worse, we had gotten very close over the last few months. It just shows how much respect another person had for you, i thought she was a far better person than that, but i guess not.
Holding a grudge isn't healthy but you need to get it out of your system, it all takes time. Then the fun of lack of sleep as things just go over and over in your head. All i have found that seems to help is stay busy and try not to think about it all, i hope you sort it all out.

What it is meant when the lady introduce to all members of her family.

I too think it depends on the person. I met the family and friends of someone i have been hanging out with, it wasn't done to show off or anything was just a greeting and i was well welcomed (was expecting the "what are your intentions for my daughter" talk). She met my family and friends too. It wasn't planned was just poping in and they were home so said hello, done that a few times and had a nice chat.
She may have done it to get opproval, but it could have been totally innocent and she just wanted you to meet her family to see if you got along. Its nice when your family accepts the person you are dating or want to date.
Its just me, but i don't need opproval from anyone about the person i was dating. Once I was asked if she trusted me introducing her to my friends as she thought they may not accept her. I just said if my friends don't like you thats their problem, i like you just the way you are.

On cheating...
Posted:
1/12/2009 12:56:27 AM
I couldn't do it, i'd think how would i feel if she did that to me? I know someone that told me that most of her exes cheated on her, she told me about them and they weren't really nice people to begin with. I can only assume its lack of will power, if you reall love someone you would never cheat on them to begin with. If someone did that to me i'd be gone, no matter what the excuse is i couldn't forgive that.

Question about a Guy's opinion....
Posted:
1/12/2009 12:41:50 AM
Sorry, he is an idiot. So what you have a tattoo? I met some people at a party recently that look really rough with tatts and piercings but you talk to them and they were awesome, super friendly and nice. Little things like that mean nothing, it doesn't change the person. Its also something you did when you were *young*, if he is so shallow to not understand that you are better off without him.
My mum always told me if i ever bring a girl home with tattoos or EXTRA piercings i'd be out of the will. I introduced a girl to my parents that had a small tattoo and a nose ring, they didn't say anything bad. They talked and they know something like that doesn't instantly make you a horrible person or anything.

Forum usage effecting your dating?
Posted:
1/11/2009 11:54:35 PM
I hope its not but i think it may though. It actually makes me be more "picky" with the subjects i reply to as it shows up in my profile what i have talked about. I don't want to post on a subject that may seem a bit odd and have someone read it and think no way, what a freak! and loose interest before even getting to know me.

Attracted to a friend, need help!
Posted:
1/11/2009 11:49:26 PM
OP i know the feeling, i told a girl i have been hanging out with for a while now that i had feelings for her beyond friends. The response seemed sort of good, but bad at the same time. She has told me about her exes and that she needs to deal with them before jumping into another relationship, but did say she can see us happening in the future. I love her company, laugh, all the little things.
Every time i tried to bring it up it all comes out muddled, no matter how much i run it through my head. I can see the whole friendzone in my future too.
I know its easier said than done, but have you thought about sitting down and talking to her about it? Tell her how you feel and ask her what she thinks about you? Its best to know, good or bad. I know i need to take my own advise too. As you are such good friends tell her you don't want to loose the friendship, but would like to know her feelings.
Good luck OP

Geekness factor
Posted:
1/7/2009 10:06:46 PM
I used to be a real computer geek, keeping it all up to date... Thankfully i grew out of all that or i'd have no money left. Still get harassed my people of how do i fix this???
I have an un-natural addiction to Bobcats, buy broken ones and repair them in my spare time (which isn't as much as i'd like). My mates think or KNOW i'm crazy, they think my time should be devoted to other things. We all do our own things to relax, at times it does the opposite but it keeps me busy. I think this is one of the reasons i'm now on POF. I'm not spending as much time on them now i'm actually enjoying life *gasp*.
I'm also totally addicted to the internet i think, i spend far too many hours on MSN in the evenings. I'm a moderator on another forum that shows just how much time i spend on the net..... Watch far too many tv shows.
My list does go on, but i better stop there or someone will get me committed to a mental hospital.

is there any way possible to figure women out?
Posted:
1/7/2009 9:54:53 PM
Thats just it, they don't always tell us what they want, they expect us to read between the lines and know. Sometimes its fun to work that out but others come on! we get yelled at for not knowing one thing she says means the opposite. I had a friend that told me one thing then when i did it i got yelled at because i should have known she didn't really mean it, like WTF i'm no mind reader. I know all women aren't the same, but i know a few that are...
As for your wallet, this sin't always true. Someone i'm hanging out with hates me spending any money on her. She currently has no job so she has no money to go out with. One of the first things she told me was we WILL argue about money, not that she spends it just that she doesn't want me spending it on her. I'm sure i'll get replies that are like she is just doing that to butter you up etc. But after a few months things are the same. Its rare for her to ask me if i'd buy her lunch or something.

No man will ever figure out the female mind!!!
Every time i think i understand them, i find out i really don't. I never seem to get a straight answer, plans change all the time... I think they do it to try and drive us crazy. I have mentioned this to another female friend and she admitted that you shouldn't even try to understand us.
I remember talking to an ex of the girl i'm hanging out with and said i'm trying to figure her out, he just laughed! and said good luck with that!!!! i'm starting to think its a futlie mission to try and work any female out.
Hope you work it out OP, if so you need to let me know too :)

First meeting someone from Online
Posted:
1/7/2009 3:02:30 PM
I can totally understand being nervous meeting someone the first time, i was the same. When i first met someone off POF we arranged for me to collect her from a bus stop, we then we went down to the beach for a walk. This way i didn't know where she lived which was fine, you don't want to give just anyone your home address. I did have her mobile number but was told for emergency only, which was fine. After a walk along the beach, a few KM's from the car it started raining, then hail! by the time we got back to the car we were both soaked, great first meeting, one neither of us have forgotten. She obviously felt comfortable enough with me as she got me to drop her off at her house, we have been hanging out ever since.
Meeting in public places is a very good idea. I know you need to meet face to face to get the *vibe* to see if they are ok or not.
Good luck OP!!!

I also think they should ALL be trained to "clear" a firearm. They are all very simple in operation, it wouldn't take long to train them in what to do. A gun is a safe condition won't hurt anyone.

money inside her bra
Posted:
1/5/2009 2:12:44 PM
I know someone that does this, when she doesn't have her hand bag with her, she keeps her phone clipped between the "girls". When we are hanging out it doesn't bother me in the least, its kinda cute actually. When she goes digging i just loot at her, she looks at me and goes WHAT??? are you haveing a good look? which i reply yes i am :) she just laughs.
At least i know if i see lumpy boob, there is probably something down her bra not some alien waiting to jump out and attack!

Was Martin Bryant Guilty???

I shoot with a guy that is left handed, he shoots pistol with his right hand and rifle with his left. So he may have been the same as that. Firing quickly really isn't hard, i can do "double taps" pretty quickly and get them to land where i want them to.
I can't comment on any of the other points though.

Brissy28 - actually the glocks they use are quite accurate. They may look horrible and feel rough but they shoot straight. As was pointed out when someone is called to use one that hasn't fired a shot in years its not as easy to get it to land on target. I have a friend that owns a glock, i hadn't shot it in months then *tried* to use it, it was a pretty poor effort till i got a few rounds away. After that i got my aim back in and it shot pretty well. Don't tell him i said that, as i am always making fun of him for ownling a glock!! call it tupperware, as the frame and mazagines are made of plastic.
I think the use of a tazar would have been a good option too, i know they have killed in the past but they are far less lethal than a bullet is. Even the pepper spray has killed people from memory.
With aiming for a leg or arm, its easy to say after the fact. But when a target is moving at you threatning your life you don't TRY and hit an arm or leg, you go for centre mass, the chest which they have been trained to do. Security get trained the exact same way.

Different guns get pulled down in different ways so i can let it go in that respect. When i had to hand in my .45 during the buyback the fellow on the other side of the counter at my locak police station actually did know what he was doing, he commented that it was really nice, shame as it was about to be destroyed..... As for the training i really do agree, i think they only do a few days every year, not sure how much is actual shooting either or even drills.
As for knowing what end the bullets come out of i don't think a few know untill they get holes in the cars or their legs (heard stories of bullet holes coming from inside the cars).... And yes, there have been cops shoot themselves in the leg when putting the gun in the holster. They need to learn finger OFF the trigger when putting gun in holster. The first thing we are taught at the local club.....

I have a shooting mate that is considering going to the academy to become a cop. He has a friend that is going through the academy now, most of their firearm training is actually done with a special gun that shoots blanks. They only do a short amount of live fire training.
They actually come to our local range for training, we have target frames that are made of steel that a wooden backing board hangs on. The target is stapled to the wood and you fire at the target that goes through the wood but does not touch the frames, in theory at least. Now we got NEW frames on a Monday, the cops came down on Wednesday and when we went to use them on Sunday they were full of holes. What kind of shooting skills does that show that they have? We have seen targets and believe if a cop is going to shoot at you stay totally still, they are sure to miss you!
Its easy for me to say shooting isn't hard, i have been doing it for about 7 years now but you need time to get used to how the gun operates and "feels", you need to freshen up on it every so often or you loose the feel for it, I know this all too well.
Boy this makes me sound like a real gun nut doesn't it? really i'm not *twitch*

If you are a smoker.
Posted:
1/3/2009 3:40:03 AM
mollygeezs - i totally agree, i personally don't make a big deal about it, i have been spending a bit of time with someone that smokes. She is considerate and smokes down wind of me and asks me if i mind, she offered not to smoke around me too. Even though she is a smoker, I'm not going to end the friendship just because of that, she is a great person and i won't give up on that. With that said, i know its not all smokers, but some don't care about anyone but themselves. They smoke where ever they want, even if they aren't supposed to with no consideration for others. I can only imagine how hard it is to quit, thankfully i have never had an addiction that i needed to break. I commend you on giving it a go as well, I'm sure in time you will succeed! I'd like to think I'd be there to support a friend if they were trying to quit, but i don't know what i could offer other than being there for moral support.
tp33376 - i have heard that too, the cravings can be really bad. I guess its all just will power and wanting to kick the habit/addiction to better your life.
I know its really not fair me preaching any of this as i have never been in the situation, i figure how hard can it be? i haven't been there. If you want to quit, good luck to you i really hope you succeed!
