Errre Ebakachu Sirra Attan Endey?!!!!!!? Bettam Yegermal eko, Belen, Belen, Ye-Ethiopia Gidiya Aybekanem erse, be-erse Ezihu America lay Be-Wushet Shegutt Enegadel??
All I’m say’n is that, why can’t we find a better way to meet each other, rather than this stupid “American” Paintball Fiesta! All our families have suffered enough hostile back home. Sorry, I will not approve of this, since I’m already traumatized by guns from Mengestu Era… Remember that? Or you’re too young to remember “Kebele” Un-educated Mo’Fo with the gun telling you passed curfew and his taking to jail.
Please people let’s find a better way to meet each other, not this, not Teddy-Afro concerts, How about Sky Diving or White Water Rafting… NOT!!!!!!!!!! LOL
Any suggestions?
Selam LeHulachen
LOl Ere bakih bakih anteh sewyew,… these people.. the same ones going to this event participate in many orgs that help ethiopia… like art shows / chartity among other things…
Are u saying we shouldnt not relax at all… never go to parties movies.. any entertainment since the people in ethio are suffering… you have issues my man.. issues
My suggestion was to do something productive, not say’n we shouldn’t relax, there are better ways to relax!!! Gebah?? Like a charity event for Ethiopian Childern or raising $$$ for education to help out our felew brothers/sisters… We can have sport events NOT Shooting each other with a fake gun… That’s usually leads to violence, Betttam yegermal Eko! Sirra Yefetachuh!! LOL
I don’t have issue’s bro. you guys do, I attend many productive activities unlike this… That’s all I’m say’n. I’m just suggesting something better to do.
Selam LeHulachen,
(Karia Tifi Lalegebachu)
if i were strong and able, i would partake in this annual paintball tournament of yours. it’s actually an adrenaline rush and i mean the guns are fake, the paintballs hurt like whoa (if you get hit in the wrong areas). this is a great idea!!
I dont think there is anyting wrong with being creative… we went white water rafting a couple weeks back… Selam LeHUalchen Shut up!
some call it outdoor sports.
you call it, shigut shigut
minew jal?
Please don’t waste your time here. Either come or don’t come to the Paintball game! That Simple! Don’t try to preach people how to spend their quality time! It’s none of your business!
If I were you I would log off from Bernos.org and do something productive.
Ok folks, while “Selam Leaf-Leketachen!” is preaching us how to be humanitarian lets plan our next outdoor event! How about Obstacle Courses?
I wish I lived in the DC area I would show all you men how to shoot em up bang, bang. If I must toot my own horn (toot-toot) I was a champion in high school back in the day for riflery, archery and all the ry’s. The bull’s eye is my reason for living (well maybe not). I didn’t even know there was such an activity among abeshoch. Am I living a sheltered life or what? Or what!
Selam LeHulachen, I laughed so hard at your comment. But on the serious side what is your real phobia? Is it the paint, the fake gun, or losing, and don’t blame it on Mengestu! I confess I have fear of heights so skydiving is not selam le-ene. White water rafting doesn’t sound appealing, now if it was a combo of black and blue water rafting I’d buy a ticket and fly out but then again I can’t break my 11pm curfew right Selam LeHulachen? If you were thinking this event is being held to meet new people you may want to re-read the invitation and enlarge the photo. I don’t think it’s a good idea to show up suited in an army fatigue, a helmet, and a gun when meeting new people. It may give them the wrong impression of you like you’re demented or about to flip your lid. Don’t you think?
If I’m ever out in the DC area for the next year’s event you better pray you’re on my team or hold out your white flag before the game begins. Don’t take this lightly I’m a serious shooter sssssplat, splatter, boom, bang, kaboosh, kabam, woof, skrit…I’m already getting the adrenaline rush.
Your Abesha sister
tuuuuf! tufff! tuffff!
Now why you gotta schedule such a thing on Oct 8th? Why wasn’t it on the weekend of Oct 1st? i WOULDA witnessed some war…
PS: selam leHulu, that was CUTE!
ye feri wedaj tastawiqalech, afaf lay qoma tew shish tilalech
hum…celebratelife you sound awesome. too bad you are not seeing you on this battle.
and you…’Selam LeHulachen’, you are tifram, gegema gebere. what the hell are you doing here and who is taking time to explain things to you? you are gomama, geja gumare(you know hippo?). this is just for adults! eshi?!
I like GebetTa (Ethiopian Chess) myslef! Gebetta anyone?
Oh my goodness! look what selam lehumachin started, this is cracking me up!
cherekah, gebeta.. is the same as chess western chess isnt it… ?
Well Nolawi, technically speaking, yes it is. LOL
C Nolawi…what ever idea you have, weather playing paintball or building a bridge there are always some silly azz’s who like to standing against you. They are like parasites (that is what Bob Marley said and I agree with that)
Chereka is one of them. I’m telling you he didn’t even touch gebeta in his whole life. None of our generation plays gebeta these days. It‘s a kind of obsolete game even in the country side of our country. We didn’t advanced it or play it, but when you think about playing paintball or tenets, your friend who never touched gebeta before says why don’t we play gebeta….minamin. Those people look are like gebeta itself, obsolete, old-fashioned and they are saying that just becouse they are ‘temama’.
Positive thinking is good, if you know what I mean.
LOL Ha, Ha, Ha, Ha!!!!! I LOVE ALL OF YOUR COMMENTS; You know what?? That’s real funny, I was just kidding to those I really offended and now I see what you all think of me… LOL LOL LOL! Guarantee I’ll be there in the mix with you ALL, you will have no idea who I am.
See you on the WAR ZONE!!!! Bring a Vaseline for those of who will be losing will take a walk to the woods.. LOL
Teeiiiyiit LeHulachu! BAM
Selam LeHulachen, I wouldn’t take this standing up why don’t you grab a chair. You will be in the mix with everyone and remain anonymous hummmmmm should we believe you? Nuh! It’s all right you don’t have to bluff we’ll spare you the nightmares.
Now take a deep breath and hold it, hold it….further instructions on the next post.
So..that is your way of playing and makeing jokes..ha?! that is not even close to funny and you are silly.
So….Mengistuin and Kebelen minamin min ametaw?! Your kind of old fashion crab are always the problem when people move forward. You always blame the past with out doing a shit today. Your kind of people always find something wrong to relate with the past whenever people talk about something today. Don’t you know yesterday is a history. Don’t you know what me make to day is that is going to be a history tomorrow. Don’t you know we can make history today…a good one if we want too and agree to agree and understand each other. Why don’t you live today and if possible the future rather than living by the worst of tomorrow? Mengestu Era is gone now…but we are still living …. in a slavish mentality of nationality, religion, politics and a hell lot sub divisions. Those things could have been good if we stand against our common enemy ‘dihinet’ together. And that should have been done with out complaining about the past…because it has no use.
Anyways this was not the purpose of this page. It was an invitation to Paintball game and you make a point about a f**ken Mingistu…Kebele minamin.
i’m sorry for the rest of you…for going out of the subject.
Boom shaka-laka!
Damn cyber!! Chill!! What the hell?? LOL If I’m Ephrem, I don’t know if I would let you near any kind of gun, even a paintball one, with this attitude! LOL You need to lighten up, have a coke and a smile too. It was a joke buddy!!! I guess you missed it. I really don’t care what people do with their own time. So, go ahead paint away!! But like celeberateLife said to Selam, YOU need to take a deep breath, but don’t hold it, for God’s sakes don’t hold it. BREATHE OUT… There you go. Now you feel better?
As for my gebetTa skills, I will have you know, I was named three time “Tour De Gebetta” champion in my kebele when I was your age.
Yes, this is a joke too, in case you missed it.
Peace
Oh..that was for fun?! ChereKa…DumbuloQa?! cool then! so…are you coming.
the breathing works tho
You kidding!!! No!! Not if you are gonna be there with a gun! Just kidding.
I am in Cali, so I seriously doubt it. But I have a friend who lives in Bowie, maybe I can have him sub for me, if he can get away from his wife and kids. 
Chereka on a serious note, why dont you come and join us for this momentus event…
sure we would love to meet the lelae tenase author… and then kick your a$$
so..you are always kiddin, right?!
yeah..we’re gonna ‘paint away’ for fun. we’ll post you some pictures.
Nolawi, why would I want to fly cross country to have my a$$ kicked. Thanks for the invitation, but I really can’t. Besides, I am a pacifist.
Thanks again.
Here’s a better Idea to ALL…When I’m there hiding in the “bunker”, The guy CyberMe coming around the corner, I’ll aime up towards his head, and pull the trigger. It will be intentionaly to get him in the head and neck area, Shoot, it’s not part of the game, but it will be worth it. He’s an (___Y___) Hole***. LOL
SL
Cyberme, Don’t you know? Don’t you know? Don’t you know? Don’t you know your post is history? Geeze Louise someone needs time out. Go sit in the corner and think about how you’ve changed history with your words. Now!
Who’s gonna give us an update on who ended up on the gurney first? I can’t wait till next year to put a muzzle on all you boys. Woof, all bark and no action! Woof, woof.
Ooops…
if i knew Selam LeHulachen’s ‘Karia Tifi’ was a good wish luck and if i knew Chereka was a funny guy….i wouldn’t have west my time.
I have an idea… why don’t we split the group into derg, woyana and miscellaneous opposition and shoot the shit out of each other. Who ever wins in the end gets to tie the losers to poles and shoot them firing-squad style. And the winners should target their asses, literally speaking that is, and preferably without protection. Woyana and dergoch gud felabachew get ready for some colored cheeks… butt cheeks that is. Rambo is in the mother f**kin town.
what the fuck! Can u explain how an overwhelming response warrants a postponment?
Nyla: When we reserved the place we asked them for 15 people and now we have over 40 which they just not ready for that scale. The good news is, now they can take any amount of people for next week. BTW: for any info call Mike 240.463.1874.
lol-nice idea!!!
