The internet is full of lies and stupidity

[stinie]

It's been around two weeks since I was able to read and comprehend the news that was happening in the world. I'm pretty sure it's all bullshit, though. Not really sure how to pass the time anymore. I mean, yes, there's booze but then what? I think I used to be creative. One time I might have even been funny or something. Maybe not.

Mori and I just got in from a 4500+ mile road trip of awesomeness. I miss the road and am genuinely sad we won't be waking up in the morning to travel to some random amazing splendor. In light of all that, the internet is just so blasé.

I have trouble typing, but yeah. You tooks a trip? Oh how I envy you, as any motion makes me panic.

I wanted to see the presidents' heads. But Grumpy was grumpy. We did see a guy with a cow in his pickup bed. I had to stand in line behind the cowboy at the market. The cow smelled better.

* Not you, specifically; obviously.

Been busy with the baby but we'll have to catch up. Too bad I didn't get a DD when youse two were out with Cazima, but I'd assume that was just because the debauchery was too fun

In re.: thread title:

The hell you say!

I pretty much miss all of you...and so much more. The world is fucking exciting! I miss being a part of it. My lovely yet limiting college town just doesn't do it justice.

It's not lies to be wrong. But it is hubris to be sure you're right all the time. Luckily I know a lot less than I used to.

I was taught that thunder is the shock wave from the rapid collapse of air in reaction to the sudden absence of a lightning bolt.

Now they teach that thunder is the shock wave from the rapid expansion of air in reaction to the sudden presence of a lightning bolt.

Thirty years hence, I'm sure the scientists will have figured it out, like, for real seriously this time. Again.

In Utah, I saw a guy hitchhiking with a goat. No lie. It was it's own special awesome. I will see the presidents' heads one day....

Couple years ago at a bullshit job ... Coworker and I are in Berkeley County West Virginia and we're lost, right? We ask for directions and proceed to make a wrong turn right away. We're going along the road and I'm like "Look at that ugly fucking dog, what the fuck's that growing out of its head?" We squeal to a halt (not quite screech) and notice this dog has straight up horns. You know. Because its a fucking goat. And nobody in West Virginia is like "Why is there a goat in the street?!?!?!?!"

Well we proceed the wrong way up this mountain and to our left is like a straight cliff drop-off instead of a shoulder and we're driving along in the wrong way when all of a sudden a squirrel comes bolting across the road. Now we screech to a halt. This squirrel speeds up and it takes a straight LEAP off this cliff. For a second I thought it was going to like spread its wings and be one of those Nat Geo flying squirrels and really amaze me. Nah, man. It was a regular squirrel like they have in Philly. Climbs trees, eats trash, and doesn't fly. This squirrel had just leaped to his death.

"Holy shit!!! Did you see that?!?!?!" my coworker yelled.

"Guess he doesn't wanna be in West Virginia any more than us," I said.

Well ... anyways, its booze-related because eventually we found out we were lost, found our way back, and drank a shitload of 40s.

I know that I said it before, probably in the thread in which Stinie announced this trip and asked for tips, but Mount Rushmore is its own, singular experience. I was prepared to be disappointed, after having seen the image so many times over the years, but it was a moving vista.

West Virginia is a sad place. We drove through that state a few years ago...what a waste. :(
