One was the Manta Ray and two other great guns. I tried the manta ray and is sucked so bad. Then my dream ended. God i have wierd dreams.

How is that at all a weird dream? Seems pretty normal to me.

Now, maybe if the train had been a Star Destroyer and the German guy had been some sort of Nazi muinitions purchaser interested in your amazing new Foam Warfare technology in order to better fuel the unstoppable power of the Third Reich, but was interrupted by the sudden appearance of John Matrix and his pet werewolf (which I assume he must have because John Matrix is the most badass man alive) who then crushes the National Socialist by securing him between forearm and bicep and then flexing, then maybe I might consider it a little strange.

But as it stands, I find nothing abnormal about it.

What train? What the fuck are you talking about dude? I don't think I should have let you watch Versus. Come back to the orange dimension, cause the joe one is obviously fucked up.

Well, it was really really really cunfusing, and people don't say the manta ray sux. If you had it, you could only see how wierd it was then.

1/2 and 1/2, you can't call someone's post useless when you're posting about gay ass dreams and shit.

[Half Newb Half Nerfer]

OMC, I did'nt call anyones dream useless. What the fuck are you talking about?

[Oroku Saki]

OMC was talking about you posting on the thread VACC started about him not doing any more news posts.

Does this thread jog your memory, Half N Half?

call someone's post useless

As you can see in section one, item A, he clearly stated that you called someone elses' post useless, like VACC's, not a dream. You seriously need to read more carefully and just stop posting until you find a turned over semi full of X-bows by my house.

Well, it was really really really cunfusing, and people don't say the manta ray sux. If you had it, you could only see how wierd it was then. :mellow:

On the first instance, anyone who says the Manta Ray "sucks" has obviously never truly understood its essence. I could write an entire essay on Manta Ray strategy (and mayhaps I shall-- or, as is more my custom, mayhaps I shall start writing it fully intent on finishing, but stop halfway through as something else catches my attention).

Instance the second: what the hell did you just say? I'm not sure if YOU are belittling the Ray or if you are accusing others of doing so. Let me introduce you to a few concepts which will help the rest of us understand what you are attempting to communicate:%0he dream was embitteringly difficult for you to understand, you told us that the dream had an affinity for sealing up women's naughty parts. Granted, most of us would never confuse the meanings, even with your abhorrent misspelling, but correct (or at the very least, mostly correct) spelling gives us a vastly improved outlook on the level of your cognizance.

Secondly, and more importantly, is correct punctuation. Punctuation is a guide for the reader to correctly pronounce the written sentence, and is therefore necessary for a clear understanding of your meaning. For instance, the second half of your first sentence can either be read as you wrote it, a general statement "people don't say the Manta Ray sucks," which is to say, "no one thinks the Manta Ray sucks;" or it could be read as an imperative if there existed one more point of punctuation: "people, don't say the Manta Ray sucks," commanding people not to say such things.

In many cases, the preceding or subsequent sentences may have helped us gain a clue as to your meaning; however, your second sentence does nothing to help us understand: are you trying to say that the Manta Ray's oddity belies its true power, or are you rather decrying that due to its strangeness, the Manta Ray cannot make for a good weapon? In this case, only further elaboration would help; no amount of correct spelling or punctuation could clarify this unintelligible mess. You need to tell us exactly what you mean, since-- contrary to popular belief-- we are not omniscient gods who always know precisely what it is that you are thinking.

Now, having said all this, I do not-- by any means-- say that everyone has to write posts as eloquent, as long-winded, and as arrogantly toned as I write mine. Contarily, there are many who are able to make their point precisely in just a few lines of our precious English. However, in either instance, correct (or, again, at least mostly correct) spelling and punctuation allows for nigh-instantaneous recognition of the author's point.

Refering to me calling VACC's post useless, I meant its only use was being funny. (Not a bad thing) Oh yeah and i don't think the Manta Ray sucks. It just did in my dream and i was surprised. Thats all.

[Dan Wask]

Half of the time people post shit about thier dreams its completely fabricated.

Example

[Oroku Saki]

I agree with the point you're making. Just reading stuff like that gives me a headache.

[Half Newb Half Nerfer]

Allright, I geuss I won't post about my insane dreams about nerf anymore. Cherio.

[Dan Wask]

A cookie for me.

What train? What the fuck are you talking about dude? I don't think I should have let you watch Versus. Come back to the orange dimension, cause the joe one is obviously fucked up.

Dude, that movie was fucked up. I dig the zombie carnage, but...tiny, demented Japanese men that are able to burrow underground at an abnormal rate for any zombie human, those things - they just scare me.

[VACC]

I still haven't quite figured out what it was about. There seemed to be some talk of dimensional gateways and keys to said gates, but it all ended up being rather fucking moot.

What scares you? The zombies or the Japanese midgets?

[Groove]

No dude, you don't understand.

Zombie Japanese midgets. That's what they were.

[Spectre2689]

Oh...my God...I never knew I could expell that much shit that far out of my ass that quickly. I'm not gonna get to sleep tonight...

[Half Newb Half Nerfer]

This is how the dream was. I was at my house. Some guy just came from germany and then he came to my house. I asked him if he had any Nerf guns. He said yes and had 4. I bought 3 from him. One of them was the Manta RAy. I tryed it and it sucked. I did not expect this so i was sad. The end.

[Ice Nine]

What he fuck? Why did you repeat your dream? We can just look at it on the first fucking page!

[VACC]

Everybody just needs to calm down here. You people are way too high-strung. Not like the Vacc.

[Half Newb Half Nerfer]

Yes, i posted my dream twice. But VACC did'nt understand it so, wait, so what? Mistake i geuss.

[Famine]

Dude, no one gives a shit about your dream. Deal with it, we've moved on to discussing Japanese midget-zombies. Who live in the Orange Dimension. But sometimes visit the Blue one too. WHAT THE FUCK WAS WRONG WITH THAT MOVIE?!?!!

p.s. One would assume that your average career murderer/criminal would have enough sense to realize that any place named "Resurection Forest" is probably not the ideal place to bury the dead.

[Half Newb Half Nerfer]

Allright. Anyway, what was that movie called?
