Ok complete the sentence. My answer is, you know you're addicted to paintball when you walk to your local paintball store just to pick up a few parts, and think nothing of it. Which is exactly where I am going right now. So I'll be back in an hour or so and I'll see what you guys have written. Ta Ta :wave:

you compare relationships to the game.

You wear your camo pants to school.

you draw a spyder shutter during 3rd bell

the only reason you pass your science quiz is because you remembered that compressed air expands when its cold out, and liquifies.

you start downloading paintball movies of morpheus.

the word gogged gives you a hard on.

You can take apart your marker and reassemble it within 1 minute.


You use paintball terms when making basic conversation and everyone stares at you.

Interesting! This thing about naming your marker is pretty cool because I am actually trying to come up with a good name for mine! Also I have no problem wearing camo pants to school! Is there anything wrong with either of those things?

YIPPEE IM A PAINTBALL ADDICT! Oh ya I also just wore my new paintball jersey to school today! Everyone at school thinks im crazy because all I talk about is paintball!

I already managed to get my friends into it but only a couple managed to get markers... (we are only 15!)

Yep, marker always before car.
you talk to your gun daily and ask how its feeling.
Yep, and you sleep with it at night and sing it lullabies.
You name your marker.
Yep, I call mine "My big phat cocker"
You use paintball terms when making basic conversation and everyone stares at you.
Yep. That's where the names "My big phat cocker", "Impy", and "Bushmaster" come in handy. Add in descriptions like "he had 20 big spotches of white on his chest after I was done with him" and "I just love the smooth in and out motion of my big phat cocker's big phat back block" and you're sure to draw looks every time.
You can take apart your marker and reassemble it within 1 minute.
Workin' on it.... :| Not quite an addict yet... :dodgy:

You've spent more money on markers and accessories than your car- THAT WS GAANNA BE MINE!

O well

When you sleep w/ your marker more than yourgirl friend

You googged up your barrel more than your paintballs (if ya understand my angle ;)

(By the way I have dl a few movies of morpheus!)

When you spend more money on your paintball gun then your girlfriends anniversary

If you had 25mill and decided to build and indoor sup'air field and donate the rest to paintball parks

When you call a paintball gun a marker

When your Angel has more technology than your home theater system

When your Angel is the only thing that shows on your electro bill

When you own an Angel autococker Timmy Immpy Shocker

When you make closer friends on Pbreview forums than at your school

i think this enough for now...

When you have a strange fetish for a Proteus mask and insist you wear it whenever you have sex.

When you invest $300 to "trick" a talon simply to see if it could be done.

You refer to your new girlfriend as a "newbie".

When you throw out barrels because you feel you've shot too much paint through them.

When you give your girlfriend a "Paintball Junkies" diamond ring when you propose. (Has a place for spare o-rings on it)

When your gun can shoot faster than most military assault rifles.

When you own two or more 12V revvys, even though you KNOW you can only use 1 at a time.

When you spend $800 to buy a Nasty Typhoon, full well knowing it's not tournament legal.

When you have Bob Long programmed into your speed dial.

When Lisa Harvey gets anonymous nude pictures and "marry me" cards from you.

When you name your dog after your new gun.

When you prefer paintball to sex.

When your ultimate fantasy is to make love behind the soda can on the 50 with your Angel in hand.
