Trail Talk has taken a real dive

“It has happened. Trail Talk has taken a real hit. I figured it would happen one day, given the nature of the internet. Since about October, Trail Talk is so low that the lowest derelicts have to roll over and look down at this site. The really sad thing is about half the people here have no idea what I'm talking about, and the other half would defend the fall if they did. It is disgusting to see this place now.”

“What are you talking about?”

“.....go take a hike.”

“Maybe it's just a dip in the biorhythm.”

“What are you talking about Steve?”

“if you will notice, he made his statement to show he is the only one that knows what he is talking about.”

“Trail Talk feels slow to me lately too, but I think it is just me, because I can't get out as much this time of year, with all the holiday stuff, kids stuff, etc.”

“TT will not die. People die.




I mean old posters that where around from the begining may not be here, but the site is.”

So true.”

“If the people who know already know and the people who don't never will... what the hell is your point... I mean, other than having the pleasure of seeing your words posted on the Internet, the 21st century equivalent of hearing yourself talk?”

“so your saying you have to roll over and lok down at this site, huh steve?”

“Hmm, when I roll over I have to look up at it. That must mean I was already at the bottom of the barrel.”

“It has only taken a dive because of racist remarks by some folks.”

“so santarex and Steve have the same "THING" going on?

ok what the he!! is this "THING"?”

“Its like Steve Hiker is trolling, but without a troll name. Sounds like he's just trying to get some tempers flaring.

Ignore this thread, I say!!”

“ok im standing with my back to the computer. arms folded.


you mean ignore it like that?”

“LOL Tilt!

Steve, who put your thong on too tight?

I can't recall the last time I've seen you post, though a few bigotted slurs stand out from the past. Thanks for contributing!
buh-byeee”

“LOL @AmyG.....is your thong too tight...now that's funny....

Obviously this dude has some serious internal private matters irritating him...otherwise he would be a real man and respond to the criticism...”

“My guess: He is really talking about himself, not TT.”

“steve hiker - Yep, I agree with you. I have noticed the absence of a number of posters. And new posts. which should not attract 'real backpackers,' develope into long strings.

But ocassionally a spark or a ray of hope occurs. So how does one get away? Is there a place like the AA, for TT addicts?”

“Ped, you are so psychological! LOL
Hey, Stevehiker, let's say we resurrect the "Ban Stevehiker" thread. Is that what you're hinting at?”

“"so psychological," that's hilarious!! hey Dunadan, i know you're a Capricorn, so why don't you just tell me when your birthday is. you know you want to!”

“I am sinking zat Herr Stephan iss projectink vonce again.”

“Get thee behind me, SATAN! My date of birth shall remain unknown to the likes of you!

Now this is a higher quality post that Stevehiker is looking for, don't you think?
We are trying, Steve, we are trying.”

“oh, fine then! :-P”

“dang...”

“One has a better perspective when on the fringe. Is it the 'playground atmosphere'? The 'clicks' of happy pill taking liberal wankers and goody2shoes and tattletailers that are continually razing you about being the individual you are?”

“Well, he can't be a reincarnation because Strom is still (somewhat) alive, <VBG>”

“One has a better perspective when on the fringe

Yep, TT rarely has meaningful discussion outside backpacking topics. Too bad.”

Personally, I think that your departure would be a vast improvement...”

“Normally, I can decipher "lawyer talk", but I have to admit I can't figure out what steve is talking about.


On the other hand,,,,,that is probably a good thing.”

“Steve, can you start a thread entitled "(state your reason here) LEAVING TT!!"?”

“this seems an appropriate thread to ask this. I have been wondering about your user name. Were you ever a coastwatcher on a South Pacific Island habitated by a bunch of young girls and their school teacher?”

“I hope matt bans your butt. I can't stand all racist comments. Your a freakin insecure little pr!ck. Get a life.”

“I love that movie hyway!”

“try not to hold anything back, binks”

“It's like, "Do I want to go to TT?"

To which I sometimes respond "no".

Or to put it another way -
"Why, God?"
"Why me? Why TT?"

It's with much destain and acronomy and wherewithal - and nother words with which I'm vaguely, at best, familiar - that I sometimes view this sight. I often have trouble sleeping as a result. The dogs - Sarabelle and Gizmo - are also feeling the crunch.

"You bury it, beeyatch!" Gizmo recently told Belle.

Ocala? TC2? Sierrapalooza? Pink?
God help me...
Sweet Mother of Jesus - help me.

Strom? Prom? Pompon? Palm fron?
I do not know,
I do not know.

Matt - in a hat?
..possibly,
possibly.

O! O help us.

Lord. Sweet Jesus. Holy Schmolly.
Great googly moogly!

Yeah, c'moan!

Jiggy. We must get jiggy with it.
Now! Today! Pweeeeze? K!

Deleware - Small Wonder!
Illinois - Land'o Lincoln. Nebraska, too.

Loop? In-and-out?
Decision time!

Tent? Shelter?
Again:
I do not know.
I do not know.”

“pr!cks like that piss me off! Are you so freakin insecure that you have to look down on other people to make yourself feel better? What's so much better about you steve hiker? Tell Us!!! We're all waiting to hear...Why are you so superior over other people? Why should we all bow down and kiss your @ss(sorry matt)?

Come over here and look down on this B!TCH!!!!”

“"STEVE HIKER SUCKS!!!

BBinkly"

So Stevehiker is a gay racist? No wonder he is so confused.”

“I don't know what he is?


(sorry for the bad choice of vocabulary everyone)except steve hiker...no apologies here.”

“Its a snake.
It's a snake.
It's not a snake”

“gojo, that post made more sense than anything I've ever read here. On behalf of everyone, thank you!

LMAO!”

“I love this place! TT has evolved into one, giant brain!”

“Aero, your last comment reminded me of the giant brain alien from the movie, "Starship Troopers".

Scary thought.. :-P”

“Gojo will be performing at poetry night in local coffee shops everywhere, Ladies and Gents.... Groovy.”

“<snap>...<snap>...<snap>”

“A regualr Alan Ginsberg!”

“Green eggs and ham

“hay binkley, ive got a couple of people here at work that id like to tell off. but i think id rather have you do it.

“It dosen't get any better than this!”
