jumpnut you complete loser!
Skydivers (meatbombs/earth burgers) are the worst!
I spent many a day/night at 'drop zones', I mean 'drop out zones'.
Q. How do you tell a pilot at a party?
A. They will tell you they are a dolphin trainer or work in aluminium tubing or something of the likes.
Q. How do you tell a skydiver at a party?
A. Well, just in case you didn't notice that the car wallpapered in stickers saying "I skydived...(some hick place)" all over the back of their car, then they will tell you they skydive (and call it flying? so bird **** flies?), and then show you videos of themself skydiving until the heads on the video player are worn out and/ or you have shoved hot pokers in your eyes and rammed tampons into your ears and poured you remaining beer onto them.
Basically I feel that telling people you are a 'pilot' is the metaphorical equivalent of hanging your wedding tackle into a lions mouth and flicking it's love spuds with a wet tea towel...
