i love camping. the only problem right now is there are lots of hungry bears in my yard at night. but i reckon it would be okay.

Fuck camping. Having to do it constantly growing up with my family ruined it for me.
"Let's show up after the sun is down and set up camp in the dark/rain, and then get up at 7 every goddamn day." No thanks.
Unless it's a road-trip camping thing, where we sleep at rest stops and stuff.

i will say i'm not a big "let us shower in the river/using only this bucket of water" kind of guy
but...if i had to, i'd rough it.

I bought a solar shower, so you can get water from the river and heat it up in the sun!

OMG MATTHEW SERIOUSLY CAMPFEST 2008. I am going to start scouting locations!!!!
Toast: don't be a party pooper. we get to sleep in when we camp in the yard, even though the sun beats down on the tent and we wake up at 11am the sweatiest people ON THE EARTH because we have been cooking in a gortex shell.

I LOVE roughing it. I camped around New Zealand for a month with only a camp stove, tent and.... that was it. Until we caved in and bought sleeping bags. Fuck, whatever people tell you, Spring is code for FUCKING STILL WINTER in NZ.

Indio, I reckon you are the closest one to me. You will be my first victim.

"Cooking in a gortex shell" sounds like a line from a Sci-fi channel original movie.

I would like to go camping, but I have no monies.
@PT: Who the hell camps like that when they can do whatever they want? When I camp, the only time I get up early on purpose is the day I'm leaving the city, so we can get where we're going before the sun even starts setting. Also, it is not allowed to be raining while I'm setting up a tent.

@IceOwl- Told you, only camping I've been on has been with my family. Most specifically, my mother. She's one of those people who demands scheduled fun. And if you're lying around, you could be doing something. Even on vacation. Especially on vacation.
IceOwl said, (53 days ago)
Ew. Scheduled fun. That sounds annoying.
You should try camping with friends, it's a lot more fun. It's more like just hanging out in the forest. Everyone does what they want, and as long as everyone does a minimal amount of work like picking up some logs and sticks for firewood or making a meal, the rest of the day is yours.
It'll only be as fun as what you bring with you, of course. That doesn't necessarily have to be anything physical, either.

Oh, it was terrible. It's why I'm wary of all things vacation. And why this summer of literally doing nothing has been so glorious.

they should have this thing called full service camping where there are servants that set up yiour tent and cook your food and drive the caravan you ride in with and air conditioning if it's too hot and turndown service and spectacular views and not having to wake up in the morning to hike because thats what the mules are for. or better yet, they could just build a hotel at the location i want to camp and it would be somewhat near an airport with cab service and the cab would have a/c. i think i may be onto something...
i was...just gonna make a pillow fort and get some S'mores bars and pretend.
but we can do the camping-for-real thing, too!
