did some grilling, had a few brews.

1. Au contraire.

Paint balling has EVERYTHING to do with teabagging.

3. It's just that...

Teabagging is at the very heart of what it is to be an American.
It's very patriotic. So is paintball.

7. We were just throwing rounds downrange with rentals.

Sucks to have them cornered and spend half of your hopper trying to hit them.

11. I didn't want to start another SB thread

so i didn't mention it, but in fact she was. During a heated capture the flag battle she threw down her gun and began belting out "Paradise by the dashboard lights". Both teams crawled out of their foxholes and began weeping uncontrollably. After some cathartic hugging, all the players decided to quit their day jobs and work to prevent the slaughter of baby seals. Who knew that when Meatloaf was properly rendered, marine mammals would see the generous bounty of human kindness. I am still in tears.
