froggie 0 #1 March 15, 2001 hey all. Weve got some pretty witty people threadin here. Sometimes we come up wiht the most hilarious things. So heres a new thread to pick your brain about. Does anyone know any new "you know your a skydiver when..." sayings? not the old ones that weve all heard. I wanna see some new ones created by you guys. Ive included two that i read posted on these threads today. lets see what else can be thought up."you know your a skydiver when your at a party and someone says COME ON EVERYBODY AND DO THE TWIST and your reaction is to grab the nearest ceiling fan scissor your legs and start kicking !!!!and...."You know you're a skydiver when..." you use the DZ.com forums to keep track of important dates. :-) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
freaksister 0 #2 March 15, 2001 dude, i am not following your requested format! :)it is too late (or early) not sure which onei have to say that i know i am a skydiver all the time, constantly. if you try to forget, somebody reminds you, asks you in the airport what is that backpack thing? why do ya'll think i used to wear that shirt about plane crashes, etc? lol, sick sense of humor answers their questions, sort of.i know i am a skydiver when...I get up in the morning, and all day and all night.Sorry this wasn't witty guys, forgive the freaksis.

Jessica 0 #5 March 15, 2001 You know you're a skydiver when you're at work at your "professional" job and nine million rubber bands fall out of your bag.Or when you're at that same job and everytime you catch a glimpse of blue sky out the window of your SOULLESS OFFICE you mutter very bad expletives.Or on your desk you have photos of your pet, your boyfriend, your rig, and your first tandem.

Zennie 0 #6 March 15, 2001 You know you're a skydiver when...* Right before you open a door for someone, you call out "Door!".* You refer to family engagements as that "other" relative work.* Aircraft of any sort is no longer seen as transportation, but a ride to altitude.* You no longer break up with someone. You "cutaway" from the relationship.------------Blue Skies!Zennie Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Slowfaller 0 #10 March 15, 2001 This one happend to me a couple of days ago, hopefully some can relate.**you know your a skydiver when your walking to your mailbox and you walk right into it because your staring at the sky. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
froggie 0 #11 March 15, 2001 slowfaller,roflmao. thats just hilarious. In relation to my mailbox the dropzone is on a 120 degree 90 degree angle off to the right. So when im walking out there im often staring behind me :) You know youre a skydiver when...Youve been late to more classes than you can count cause you were staring up at the tiny plane above you trying to figure out what is was, if you could jump it, and its altitude.
