Boom Why I hate tanks...

I hate tanks, in games, in war, in everything that involves them. People who drive tanks are probably really lazy, oh, and overly dramatic people. If I drove a tank, I'd write PANSY on the side cuz that's what I'd be, a pansy. Tanks are big, but not as big as cruiseliners, so tanks must be pretty lame. Plus, tanks are usually green, and so is grass, which sucks if you lay on it. Man does grass itch! Oh yeah...tanks. Well, i guess without em, ther'd be no candy. So tanks can be ok sometimes. That's all. Oh - I like PC games w/o tanks. javascript:smilie('')

I don't know about being lazy but I know a head shot with a tank gun is cause for celebration in any game. But then again, with a tank you don't have to be too accurate, you just have to get close.
Oh and I'd write Pansy on my tank too just to piss people off that got hit with a shell from my "pansy" tank. You must be pretty bad in a game if the "pansy" tank can hit ya. What if you painted the tank pink? Then a whole convoy of pink tanks showed up at your door. I wouldn't be saying anything bad about them then. You guys can paint the tanks whatever you like...

Tanks are a double-edged sword. They're nice when you're cruising into enemy territory with one, but they suck when you're in their shoes. Are you upset because you constantly get killed by them, or because the tanktards won't let you have one?

someone should do a mod for bf1942 that enables you to personalise your tank when you get in it. I would love to be driving a tank with PANSY written on the side.... erm... not that I am a pansy of course.
My brother drives a real tank... he's definately not a pansy.

Hey, tanks take skills sometimes. Nothing sucks worst then when your driving a tank in bf1942, and pretty much everyone has a bazooka or driving artillary.

It's not the mac in me...I just have a general dislike for tanks....and I'm a little bit crazy.

Oh, and to the guy with a tank for a brother, I fought my brother Chad to the death in 1998, so tanks do suck.

andy - I take it back. NO SMILEYS FOR YOU AT ALL! Anyone else fine, but don't wink unnecessarily. YOU THOUGH, SCURVE, stay out of the smiley panel, creepy. Next time you put a smile on my post I'm gonna make a celebrity up and take pictures in an excessively large box with a Native American Indian who will refuse to deny anyone who owns their own boat a Dr. Pepper.

I don't like tanks either, which is odd because ships, subs, and planes are pretty sweet.

funny, the Gnome dude used 2 smilies in his original post

I can agree with that. And Mr. Gnome has a rare condition called similacephlisitisosis. In fact it's so rare I don't even know if it actually exists. PICKLEDCHICKEN!
