TT Topic Counter

“one of the reasons i care if TT turns into a crappy site is because i have met some folks from here that i really enjoy/enjoyed hiking with. when they don't visit this site because all of the trivial bull#&%!$ threads, it lessens my chances of hiking with them. instead, my options turn into hiking oppurtunities with a bunch of snivelling asses who try and validate thier bull#&%!$ by patting each other on the back and telling the other folks this is a free country.”

“What is a smegma?

If our four fathers didn't break a few rules, we would still be drinking tea. I say unspoole that thread, see what can be made. Who is to say "how to make MP3's, I have a computer problem,and Bush Sucks" is not TT related. Not me.

The sugar and spice is what makes it all nice. Let is all go people. Let it all go.

( I just have not responded to many threads latly and wanted to write something ;) )”

“Dag!!! hold on let me get the fan going again.”

“Damn, Bigpoppa, you had four fathers?????







...mighty sporting of your mother...”

“Damn FG! Why did you have to flame bigpoppa! That B.S. (bull #&%!$.... not to be confused with TT posted BS)”

“OPIE - Dunadan has boots, I've seen them. They were brand new, but he owns a pair. Don't know about the rest of the folks.”

Because he set himself up so well for it, that's why. Just because he's a nice guy doesn't make him immune. ;-)”

“Dayhiker, I appreciate the nod. However, I sold my new boots shortly after our hike in order to buy a new sleeping bag. With the way I rack up bag nights, my old bag was plum worn out.”

“I'll bet it was. Did it still have Arkansas dirt on it, 1 year later? You need to Christen it in Alabama in March.”

“What does any of this have to do with Rush Limbaugh?

Can you people PLEASE stay on topic?”

“Dang! Got caught posting a backpacking related thread. Sorry, it won't happen again.”

“"who cares - just don't open the threads you don't want to.

If you don't like to see the trip and gear threads drop off the page so fast, then comment when you read them. A short post like "great report" acknowledges the effort and encourages more TTers to post their stuff."

AMEN Sister!

I've posted gear threads and trip reports that lasted about 10 min before dropping off.
Quit ya #&%!$ing and post to some of the threads if you want to make TT better!
And lay off Maple and Treebeard. This selective finger pointing has got to the point of just plain meanness and only makes you look like an ass.”

“Right on Twigeater and Stovestomper!

If you're not part of the solution...”

“Right on Twigeatter, stove stomper and LeSubtil!”

“You're part of the precipitate?”

“Shut up bit! (snicker) ;)”

“and the patting of backs continues......”

“We are all great. Pat, pat, pat.”

“Right on, baume 66!
lol”

“am I still liked?”

“To much back padding is problem though. oh you said back patting, well that too isn't as sincere as a nice firm hug. Back patting is akin to a limp hand shake.”

“Right on Stove Stomper, le Subtil and Nigal!
(especially the part where you agreed with me, LOL)
pat yourselves on the back !”

“The threads that bug me the most are:

1) The pissing contest threads where pre-teen boys (and occasionally gals) of all ages call each other out with all manner of cuss words.
2) The noxious troll threads.

As for off topic threads, I don't mind 'em as long as they are appropriately labelled. I do agree there ought to be a better ratio.”

“58 - non bp
31 - bp”

“That looks about like your avg., BB...”

“Damned watchdogs!”

“snicker...



sorry :)”

“bping threads are up, non down just a tad.

I'm sure that with the influx of great weather, there will be many trip reports and threads of gear talk.

I am looking forward to this fall bping season. With boy #2 getter older, Dad has been granted leave one weekend per month (but not two weeks in a row), minus day hikes, which is back to my old rotation before boy #2! Outta town next weekend, booked for "The Big Z" in November, now I have to start looking at December and beyond.

I feel the need to start a gear thread....”

“BP Related - 19
non-bp related - 42

2:1 ratio - congrats folks!”

“Is this good or bad, BB?”

“This thread is non-bp related.”

“No, but it is BB-related.”

“Who cares!
