digurman 0 #1 August 11, 2003 I started telling everyone at work that the pin is used to open the reserve canopy. "you pop it of your neck, reach around behind you and insert it into the "reserve locking device ..." They still think it is a phallic symbol though and are afraid to touch it.

turtlespeed 226 #5 August 11, 2003 I told someone once that it was a packing key. Yep, just insert it into your rig and the damn thing packs it self.I'm not usually into the whole 3-way thing, but you got me a little excited with that. - Skymama BTR #1 / OTB^5 Official #2 / Hellfish #408 / VSCR #108/Tortuga/Orfun Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

digurman 0 #7 August 11, 2003 Guys can say, "I have to get a new one because I bent it." Girls can say, "my boyfriend bent it" or "I got carried away and bent it while my boyfriend had it in me." Words aren't real Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DYEVOUT 0 #8 August 11, 2003 When asked about mine, I calmly reply to the whuffo: "I'm sorry, but you do not have sufficient security clearance for that information". or "That would be. . . - none of your goddamn business".

tbrown 26 #12 August 11, 2003 It's half of a "69" emblem. Somebody else has the other half. But don't say that at work, or you'll get brought up on charges before the Inquisition for sexual harassment. Your humble servant.....Professor Gravity !

digurman 0 #13 August 11, 2003 A ruin? Is that a bent rune? Smart people can't spell. Especially Aggies. I remember a test in an animal science class. One guy said, "hey, how do you spell farm?" His buddy whispered, "I'm not sure, but I think it is "e-i-e-i-o." Words aren't real Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mouth 0 #14 August 11, 2003 Everyone at work knows exactly what it is, how it works, etc. My classroom has LARGE Michael McGowan pics all over it explaining my passion. I wear my necklace most every day and get quite a few questions about it at work and around town becuase it is so unigue. -- Hot Mama At least you know where you stand even if it is in a pile of shit.

Cava 0 #15 August 11, 2003 I actually had a whuffo ask me that. After explaining as simply as possible what a cp was, he goes, "Oh, so when you want your parachute to come out, you take that off your neck and use that one? Is that why all you guys wear them?" I responded with a blank stare, and after a moment tried again... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
