Oh the horror! Glad you're doing okay now.

When the dude could easily wake and bake in his car or (god forbid!) out in the open air, yeah. It is very much akin to forcing me to do a shot before I take my morning shit. I'm far from straight edge, but if I wanted to toke first thing in the morning, i WOULD.


If you thing hotboxing a public area is an acceptable behavior *anywhere*, you also don't understand why folks wouldn't want to hear your shirty techno/bluegrass/other at 3 in the morning in those same public spaces.

So you’d rather smell the shit instead? Kinky. There is no such thing as a contact high so don’t compare it with being forced to consume alcohol.

A single shot won't get me drunk either. That's not the thing that pisses me off about it.

I believe it would be more akin to forcing you to smell some beer while taking your morning shit.

But, I do agree that music at 3am anywhere within earshot of someone else's camp is pretty bogus.

 yes, I’d love to stay at your place. But since I wasn’t planning on coming anyway because this weekend is such a cluster fuck I will actually be adding to the problem, not subtracting from it. I will be bringing several partners and my dogs and some babies and some boom boxes and beanie hats.

Sounds, uh, lovely.......

"Creeksgiving has become legend, the Burning Man of the climbing community, if you will. Dreams of quiet solitude are best realized on other weekends; this is the busiest time of the year. The classics have lines, the sand vibrates with bass, the dancing lasts all night, and the campgrounds take a beating."
