You too, Foxfur.

Hope the world's been treating you well (I already know how you treat the world - UR a good man indeed).

Looks a little bit like "The Hungry" (or even "The Truck Driver").

Awesome post. [snip] One fun thing I've found that helps breaking your own ice is to just get out there and dance . It feels like one of the most ridiculous things to do, but you're out there, doing it. What know what is even better? Teaching a friend how to do do a dance, in public, in that random...

Dude. Less talk, more rock.

You'd think all this could be resolved easily if BM just tapped into a few parallel universes and set to overflow there.

I actually saw somebody Jiffy-Popping at the Man this year; was it you, OP? I got swept away in the tide of naked folks circling the flames, so, did not see how the popcorn came out. I not only got to see someone with Jiffy-Pop at the Man, but was offered Man Popcorn! Tastier than it sounds.. hard ...

That coin is sooo f#cking cool. If I had that much disposable income, I'd consider acquiring it. It would have the same sentimental value to me as buying USS Liberty commemorative coins from one of the survivors of the attack. While true I was not part of that event, I recognize the importance of i...

Meh. "Free" means "do what you want with it". "Gifting" something with conditions is not really gifting. I agree entirely. People at work will sometimes give me food they've made and then say that I am bound by whatever restrictions they want to impose. I tell them that once they give it to me, it ...

I just finished a review of the People of Burning Man -- a new coffee table book of portraits of Burners by Julian Cash, a.k.a. Supersnail.

If you can roast marhmallows on a flamethrowing penis then popping some popcorn on some coals seems like it would be simple enough. 58528_1491216534440_1654807372_1185907_4252960_n.jpg I don't currently have any tattoos, but if I did, this is the sort of simple yet profound wisdom that I would cons...

I like you already and think I still would getting to know you. Agreeing to disagree is the hallmark of an enlightened mind.

I saw foxfur's site and said for him to post this, and then thought, fuck it, that's my job. It deserves to be here as it is exactly the type of commentary I was fishing for.

My advise is to microwave your popcorn and be done with it. Jiffy Popping it on "...the still hot ashes of the Man...' is such a remarkably bad idea I wonder sometimes if the Darwin Awards weren't thought up for people like you.

I remember that the Jiffy Pop instructions cautioned about the advisibility of trying to use their product over a campfire flame.

I would like to add this JWR article to the "Best of" pile as the smug dismissal encapsulates perfectly someone who doesn't get it and for whom freedom is a frightening thing. It further reinforces the idea of a mate as property. from: What I Saw at Burning Man Having spent the better part of a week...
