I’m not kidding you here, I mean a LOT of nerf guns.

I’ve got calibrated 6-shooters with customized pumps that can practically put a hole in a concrete wall. I’ve got specially modified CO2 powered machine guns that can send a nerf dart flying through several panes of glass. I’ve got a nerf knife, made of foam with a hard rubber “stem” inside it to keep it from bending. I’ve got it all.

Now, you might think that someone like me, someone living such a luxury-filled life, would be happy, right? Well, I thought so too, until I saw my neighbor’s cache of paintball-related goods. He’s into paintball guns the same way I’m into nerf guns.

And it terrifies me.

I think I’ve been spared, honestly, from a life of meaninglessness. I’ve seen how he cares for his paintball equipment, how he lovingly polishes his mask every day, and gives each individual paintball a kiss before loading it into his rifle and blasting chipmunks in his backyard. I’ve watched him fill water balloons full of paint, consider throwing them at stray dogs and children that walk by his yard, and then gently set them back down.

And I’ve seen him on the bad nights, the lonely nights, the nights where he just cradles the cold steel in his arm, and cries. Sometimes I look out my kitchen window in the morning, through his french doors on the side of his house, and I see him passed out on the floor, an opened bottle of vodka and an empty shot glass, with paint plastered to the temple of his skull, gun lying next to him on the floor, tears streaking down his face.

I see where my nerf gun path is taking me, and where that path leads is not a pretty place at all. I don’t wish to see that dark place towards which I am headed.

So tell me, goons, what kind of shrubbery would be best suited to blocking all view of his french doors? Thanks in advance.

I had one of those sick nerf guns with the suction cups as a kid! I accidentally shot my eye out though, so that wasn't fun.

My friend has an off brand one of those, and it's awful. It's roughly the shape of a humpback whale, shoots darts about 8 feet, and makes a horrible whirring and clicking noise like a robot on life support.

Possibly the best nerf gun ever made. I have one sitting next to me at work, and I use it to shoot my boss from time to time.

I don't mean from hiding, either. I mean like go talk to him holding a nerf gun and at some point in the conversation shoot him with a piss soaked dart.

I had to teach myself to solder because my son watched some stupid video on youtube that said it was fine to shove 12 volts of batteries in his new gun without upgrading any internal poo poo.

But turns out it is fun and now I want to solder more stuff into kid toys.

It did gently caress all.
I think he instantly burned poo poo out. The motors were still good, so I just wired them directly to the trigger and now it works, but I made him put the old AA's back in. Considering upgrading the motor though, now that I see how easy this stuff is.

I heard you can rewire a disposable camera's flash to a piece of metal and it will discharge the capacitor when the metal is touched, you should make a shock bayonet to attach to the gun.

When I was a kid we made our own Nerf guns with a section of 3" pipe, a grill igniter, some hairspray, and a potato. Send a supersonic potato through your neighbor's window, OP.

I've heard that there's actually a big market for modded nerf guns, so if your son doesn't care anymore, maybe you could make some bucks off ebay.

I was just reading about the guy who wrote the book that the documentary "Pumping Iron" was based on, and apparently this same guy invented paintball. Isn't that wild? I never thought of someone actually inventing it. Well, they said he played the first game of it with his friend, and then his friend went on to make the first paintball equipment company or something.

What was your question again?

this is kind of true but you can't do much with real guns. at least with airsoft and nerfs you can have wars with your friends.

i have some real guns but i don't get to use them much and when i do there's all these rules and poo poo so you don't accidentally kill you're self or someone else :shrug:
