Unfortunately, that doesn't work if you have a wonderful wife like mine.
I work hard for my/our money, and my knows I have only one vice. PAINTBALL!!!

She does wonder why I need 133 markers.(soon to be 134 when I get my pumpalicious mag back from Rainman229)

It is a sickness, but until I find a PPA (paintball players anonymous) I'm doomed to spend more and more until there is none left.
SOMEBODY STOP ME BEFORE I BUY AGAIN!!!!!

agreed

Spending my money frivolously is easy to do here. I could make better use of the cash by giving it to people who need it for food, shelter, etc. I should do both, . But better for me to have paintball guns than to smoke my money away. Besides, you can always get more money, but that one special gun may not ever show up again.

Funny, that is how I feel when I buy something. I may never see that price again so I grab it.

That and the "maybe I'll resell it" justification. I keep telling myself that, but I've only ever sold two markers.

And yes, when your girlfriend also plays paintball and likes old markers off MCB, you really have no incentive to stop...

Mistress? Should I be rethinking stuff?

I figure, at least it isn't real firearms. They tend to run even more pricey, as well as the ammo.

But they keep their value a lot better.

[Waves hand slowly in a horizontal jedi like fashion] MCB is the PPA, and we are here to tell you there is nothing wrong with buying more markers,( for admiting that there was a problem with your Gun Whoring would only mean the rest of us would have to admit a problem as well )[End Jedi mind trick wave]

Not true at all. In my short time here I already have spent more than I thought I would. There are just to many temptations. My wife just gives me the Look.

I made a little try at staying out of the BST and actually went a month or two without buying a new marker.
Then one day I was like, "I wonder," and I accidentally on purpose clicked the members BST and there was this little Mayhem that sucked me back into it. That was the first of the most recent five. Damn you Carter for starting this. Damn you Grand Poobah of the virtual gun whore swap meet. This place is evil. A black hole that sucks in not our bodies nor our souls, but slowly eats away at something much more tangible.







Our moneys.
