I feel like you know when you've just hit a golf ball in that sweet spot or made perfect popcorn and maybe accidentally took the lid off a little early so a few popped and shot across the kitchen and made a small orphan laugh in times of sorrow
or you managed to get that juggle throw just right or you remembered what an Asus6 feels like without having to look it up or you booked a big exciting trip or someone buys you a book that means something to both of you but no-one else knows why you're grinning like an idiot or when you get that marinade just right or a repeat of an old episode of Cops you recognise comes on the TV just when you were about to go to bed or when you jump in icy puddles and they make that satisfying crunchy sound or when you're lying on your back on the side of a hill and the sun's shining but the sky is full of little puffy clouds and you see a little baby Hitler shape in the cotton-wool sky.

I'm shit at golf, burn popcorn, can't juggle
Asus make computers, I rarely read, can't cook, don't watch tv and it's grey outside.
Am in the midst of planning canyoning and a bungee jump in Scotland though, and stomping on icy puddles is always fun.

At the risk of making myself sound more spack-handed than I am
if I can juggle, then anyone can.

I was juggling balls
just got the hang of it and I smacked my elbow on the corner of an overhead kitchen cupboard. Left a triangular dent about 5mm deep in my elbow between bones.
Must have hit a nerve or something because it hurt like a bitch and my hand was spasming about the place.
Not juggled since.

I've tried for a total of about 5 minutes over my whole life
It's not something I'm that bothered about though. I'm really struggling to find anything I'm motivated to do, which is very annoying.

I'm a sniper too.
I'd much rather be camped in some clever overlook with one bullet and my crosshairs on a mark 800m away than charging through crossfire loosing a thousand rounds per minute.

Damn right!
Though I'm going airsofting next month, and sniping with air rifles is only slightly more effective than sniping with a shuttlecock and badminton racket.

Going to a site down south
Here with some friends who are in to it. They went to a 200 player event in a MOD training village site in Wales once, and people had vehicle mounted BB miniguns! Some people spent multiple thousands of pounds on kit...

Hurts less per hit, but you get hit a lot more.
Because BBs are much, much cheaper than paintballs.

I'd love to have a go
between us a few friends and I had a collection of pistols and a shotgun and used to have gunfights occasionally.
I've lost my Beretta somewhere though :-(
I assume you use the gas powered ones for this though?

my experience of the electric ones is that they were much weaker and therefore less accurate
might just have been a cheapy one though
My spring powered pistol hurt like a bitch if you got shot with it.

These guns start at 100 quid minimum usually
I had a spring Glock 17 (same model as used in the Arizona shootings, fact fans) that also hurt like hell if you got hit by it, but it's range wasn't too hot.

My electric MP5 fires at about 315fps.
That'll give you a hickey if it hits exposed skin, take out a tooth at close range if you're unlucky. A friend has a spring powered rifle that fires at about 430fps but he's not allowed to shoot it at anyone closer than 10 metres.

Electric is the way to go if you want full auto - SMGs, assault rifles, heavy machine guns and the like.
Gas for the shinier pistols, springs for sniper rifles and shotguns.

Shop gun might be your best bet because they'll replace it if it breaks,
saves you sitting out for an hour and fiddling with screwdrivers and shit. I've got a BDU, holsters etc though. And a massive helmet, naturally.
