Sure! Play with guys and you get to use your 1337 FPS tactics in practise to win glorious battles over your foes. Play with girls, and you understand why wet t-shirts are such wonderful things.

Back in the early 1960's, Parks Plastics made a Luger squirt gun (molded of black plastic, so it appeared real at a distance) with a claimed range of "over 50 feet". These were also very accurate, shooting a narrow stream right where you wanted. I don't think the various super-soakers of today (while pumping out much higher volumes of liquid) could match the old guns for range or accuracy. They did require strong hands to reach their peak performance. I had two of the things, and worked both hands to exhaustion on many occasions.

My neighbors had an annoying cat, who made it a habit at night to climb over the wall dividing our properties in order to attack our pet canary. After finding the poor bird battered half to death one day, I filled my best Parks Plastics Luger with a cleaning solution containing ammonia, and waited up that night. When the cat came over the wall into our property, he got squirted right in the eyes with the solution. And as he turned to run away, the centerpiece of his derriere was also soaked. I later saw him back in his own yard, rubbing his eyes with his front paws while simutaneously scooting his butt on the ground. Needless to say, he didn't come back for quite a while.

I found out later that I should have flushed the ammonia solution from the gun with fresh water, as the cleaning solution eventually attacked the plastic and ruined the gun. Ahhh, memories...

Every single day a couple summers ago, me and a couple friends would play. We had walkie talkies and everything. We carried multiple guns and if we ran out, one of us would sit at the "turret" or the hose.

Good times, good times...

Man, you blinded a cat for being a cat, not very nice [this is the frontroom...]
