| A few years ago, I took my little cousin to watch the JO's. We walked around and were able to watch some of all three weapons. He didn't like the saber because they were "too scary" when they yelled. He didn't really seem interested in foil at all.... then we watched some Epee... he was entranced. As we left several hours later he turned to me and told me that he liked Epee the best. I've never been more proud of the kid.

It must be so sad having no life and having to worry about ROW to boot!! I figure he's a wanna be/gonna be and only needs a little encouragement from someone to make him a full fledged epeeist.

| i have just finished reading all six pages of this thread. thank you, i haven't laughed this much in a while.
the only people who fight for weapon pride at club are those other people, we EPEEs are already fully confident about our superiority.

Epeeist: "Ungh bada whip whip nark flessie cucu".
Foilist: "Could you please go away, you smell..."
Epeeist: "Foil BAD!"
Foilist: "Whew, not nearly as bad as your breath..."
Epeeist: "Kumpi lulu nash ughhhhhhhh..."
Foilist: "You want food, here's a donut, here boy, fetch the donut..."
Epeeist: "Foooooooooooooood!!!!!"

| You obviously came across a very confused (more so than normal) saberist with delusions of grandeur...

| I delivered a very satisfying toe touch last night. Later, I felt pity for people who fence with weapons that don't allow that sort of fun. |

Why were you here in the first place? Didn't you see the sign on the door when you came in? Do you routinely go into the other sex's restrooms as well?

| Hello Group!
I'm an EPEEist and I'm here to stay! 1 Corinthians 13:11 - When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things.
Like many young people I dorked around with the foil as a child.
It's not that I wasn't good at it. I did make a few Junior National Finals. But I grew up , and put it away (like the good book says).
In fact, when I kicked the habit, I gave all my foil stuff away to a skinny asian feller. I went on to become the EPEE deity that you see today, and last I heard the little asian feller has a job selling used cars. This christmas I may send him a manly chest protector. That should improve his spirits.
----------------------------------------
Welcome, Cvlle
Even though you were a little late to the party, I was still including you in the EPEE fun. You should have gotten at least one bonus from an international distributor thread. I'll lend a hand again as soon as possible.
(He really did sell his foil kit)
