I want the rapid fire 20 shot Nerf gun!  I can think of several people I work with that would love to have one too.  Then we could take turns blasting the boss whenever she comes up with another goofy idea and she wouldn't know exactly who did it. biggrin

nod.gif Its great fun. A few of us have that same gun... we like to gang up on people. Nothing like getting hailed with 60 darts all at once.

I'd like to take it with me when we have to go into work an hour early for a staff meeting at 6 in the morning.  wink

We should all have one. You never know when it will come in handy. It is more convenient than getting to the shooting range and firing off a box of ammo.

If you weren't awake before, you certainly will be then. Just start firing them when you see someone nodding off. But also not forgetting to pelt the boss just because you had to be in at 6am anyway.

And a whole lot cheaper too! 

I can think of lots of times I'd have use for one:
When my husband is being a total jerk (which is most of the time)
When my girls are arguing between themselves
When my dog is messin' with the Christmas tree
When the mailman leaves nothing but bills in my mailbox
When someone gets in the 15 items or less express lane with a cartload of groceries
When someone does something stupid while driving and talking on the phone at the same time (but I'd have to buy replacement darts after)

There are many, many uses for one of those!!!! biggrin

Those are some very handy uses. I wonder what people would think if were walking around the store doing my grocery shopping with 20 shot strapped to my back.

I have even found another way to use it. When I get ticked off at an e-mail, I can push back in my chair and fire at my monitor.

Mz - maybe you can use it for the phone.

If you have a flat screen monitor, they stick REALLY well. You can get velcro tipped darts to stick to people too. nod.gif Just tons of options.

I thought you might Mz.

And I do have a flat screen. You think it is okay to yell while firing darts at my monitor? I can so see me grumbling, grabbing the gun, rolling backwards in my chair a few feet and yelling, "aaaaahhhhhhhhh" as I fire off five or ten shots. Then I can look up and whoever is staring at me also gets shot.

I can't stop laughing when I'm firing the 20-shot. Yelling would be completely appropriate.

Nice. I would so get into trouble though. Although, on the right day, if I ran by and left a few darts on the CFO's windows or monitor I think he would laugh.

Most of them do. I've shot up most of my management. It's hard for them to not take guff from us... there aren't too many people who could do our jobs, but we could quite easily do theirs. giggle.gif

I call Mema for my team. I don't want her firing darts at me.

I think we should stage a nerf war on a competing station.

Okay, now, who's our competing station?
