    Point weapons > Cut and Slash weapons.

    A saber sword is only good for giving someone a haircut or trimming grass ;P

    Fencers without appreciation for alcohol absolutely astound me.

    There is exactly one non-heinous use for a sabre.

    Fellow epeeists, I believe I finally have discovered a means to excise this gremlin-like malevolent spirit that is Inq from our fair message board.

    We use the Caps Lock key.

    Fellow epeeists, Inq has taken it upon himself to champion the cause of the Shift key. As he fences sabre, then we can only assume this Shift key he and his ilk extol to be a button on unspeakable evil, apostasy, and borderline depraved fantasies. So my like-minded fencers, I call on all of you to use the Caps Lock key and stand in opposition to this madman's continued encroachments.

    Use the Caps Lock key people---epeeists everywhere are ineffably saddened when you use the Shift key.

    Clearly, these saberists and foilists don't want to be enlightened by the fact epee is the only true weapon of champions.
    And now I seek the revenge on the one who forced me to hide behind this mask

    On the contrary! We bounce for joy every time we have the chance to fence!

    It is one of those verities of life, that one can be joyous and still---sad.

    We are only sad that there are those who have never experienced the euphoric joy of fencing epee.

    That you don't realize how sad you are is, in itself...sad.

    Sounds like one of those worthy social disorders - Saberists Are Dysfunctional. Yes, I see why you're S.A.D.

    Sadly, the bouncing seems to have addled your perceptions. Sad indeed.

    Update on le study abroad: Will be spending three months this fall in Paris, on the Cité Internationale Universitaire de Paris campus. Cité seems to be located conveniently directly on top of PUC Escrime, which seems to be a good club.

    Have fun! I was in Paris a couple weeks ago; it's a beautiful city. Just don't make the mistake I did and go to Pigalle alone, after dark...
