    Sabre thread

    I figured we ought to give y'all your own asylum so you'll stop bugging us in the épée thread.

    There ya go! We'll even let you run it.

    Yeah, you sabreurs just aren't good at playing nicely together.

    nah, we just thought the fact that saber was better was self-evident (still do, in fact). Saw no need to say anything that's already known!

    Um, you're smelly and unintelligent, etc, etc. Due to your unruly saber habit, etc. Smack talk, etc.

    nice comeback!

    Although, I realize that those of other weapons have a hard time grasping proper tactics, technique, and subtle finesse...

    It's okay. We still love you. Regardless of weapon, fencers are fencers after all. Now go play in the corner with your targets...

    Hey! Hey! Hey!

    Boy, I'm half a sabreuse, and I still find foil amusing... But yea, sabre needs the same point control. And yup, it IS the crown.

    Well YEA, crown, but it's really the HEAD that wears the crown, and it's FOIL

    No, you're a full saber fencer that needs more rehab.

    Because it's just too tempting and foil can never satiate that lust. It's the bad boy thing, I know....

    Apparently it doesn't satiate your lust if you still fool around with it!

    Then you must like saber more than foil! You aren't marrying foil!

    Yes, you have. But again, that's what rehab is for.

    It's curable.

    No, I'm marrying a saber fencer who is in denial and in a rough patch.

    No worries, honey, we'll pull you through this. It's a very good program, really.
