A Banger

The U.S. Supreme Court once decided that pornography is difficult to define, but "one knows it when one sees it".

Similarly, a banger is a pool player who can be recognized as such by
hearing his play. :banghead: No?
 
A banger is...

Someone that pays his pool bill and doesnt feel the need to inform you of 845 things wrong with the pool table, juke box, pool balls, air conditioning, pretzels, coffee machine, carpet, loud kids, chalk and cuesticks that made him lose.
 
A banger is sombody who is still using an aiming system!! Oh yeah I said it :) Ok maybe they are just beginners.
 
a banger hates the game of rotation but loves 9 ball.
a banger has no patience.
a banger doesn't like long matches.
a banger gets angry when you play a safe on him.

If a banger is playing in the forest and no one hears him, is he still a banger? :D

A banger is someone with the miraculous ability to completely change the layout of the table with every shot. You know it's true!
 
A "banger" is someone who hasn't run into a patient enough player who will help him go beyond his banging.

Those who don't help bangers get better might be called "banger-enablers."

Boom boom boom boom

Boom boom boom boom

A banger?s shot makes no pocket noise.

A banger is someone that has more ways to lose than God.

A banger is someone who pads my pockets

A banger is defined as................fill in the blanks people.

I'll get it started with this one.

A banger is defined as a person who uses draw on every shot and only knows 2 speeds; hard and really hard!

A banger is defined as a person who:

1. Scoops the CB for a jump shot.
2. Rocks the rack back and forth ten times before giving a loose rack.
3. Inserts fingers to separate CB from rail.
4. Thinks 8-ball is "regular" pool.
5. Will never understand the rules of one pocket.
6. Will never understand the rules of 3-cushion.
7. Refers to high as "high-top" or "high-follow" or "top-follow".
8. Refers to draw as "low backspin", "low draw" or variations thereof.
9. Has a cue from Sports Authority or Sears.
10. Racks the balls at the wrong end of the table.
11. Does not understand what a safe shot means.
12. Thinks making the CB "spin" a lot is a demonstration of skill.
13. Tries combination shots that are considered ill-advised due to distance, timing, complexity.
14. Tries bank shots into the side pockets from the top or bottom rails.
15. Thinks people that ask for a re-rack are "fussy" or "picky".
16. Tries to advise any female player even though they can't play themselves. Apparently sexism and male "bangerism" go hand-in-hand.
17. Wants to learn to jump or masse because they saw a better player do it, and they can't wait to impress their friends.
18. Is a litte too eager to start gambling when they can't play at all.
19. Has never heard of more than three pro players, male or female, refers to Jeannette Lee as "that Chinese" or "that Oriental" chick.
20. Does not know how to lag.

Of course, most if not all of these can be applied to beginners, which is not necessarily a bad thing, but I assume the OP was looking for definitions for the more annoying characteristics of bangers. Now that I have wasted more company time I will go to lunch...:)
