Enjoy the fences.

Once the decision is made to put up a chain link fence or any other forced deterrent, it will be too late to "suggest" other options. Once it's done next year, it will be permanent. They won't say nobody has died in a fire for 5 years, let's try it again without the fence. You can stick your head in...

So I guess I should have known better than to think this site could have a purpose besides snark and contradiction. But I couldn't imagine anyone would prefer what happened with this years burns as opposed to what was planned. (Yes, enjoy yet another softball opening for more snark and contradiction...

Wow. Just wow.

Are you still alive? God damn child proof bottles... Boy if I would have just been cool like you I would have learned that burnier entitles dooshy ignorance. Keep sucking on the poison dicks, he who can't read and suggests poison to people that can. EDIT; And NICE editing out of how long you've bee...

And as soon as someone that actually WORKED the temple burn reads what I wrote and thinks I was saying ANYTHING derogatory towards them, they will have my apologies. (But I'm guessing those people can read).

Partypants I was with you right up till then. The BLM said 'NO Temple burn'. The Borg said, 'We'll get volunteers'. The BLM said, 'No. They must be trained'. The borg put out a call to all departments for 'all the volunteers you can send'. Over 700 showed up. After a quick training session they sto...

AGAIN, I DON'T NEED SAFETY! Safety 33 1/3 I say! But I also don't WANT a fucking trash fence 5' high around the burns like the temple this year! Nor do i think it's right to have every swinging dick and clit in a kilt with their back to the burn because of "possibilities". I appreciate the snark thi...

Ahhh the subtle nuances between snark and dooooosh... When the time to actually read someone elses thought is superseded and bypassed by the need to prove one's egotistical ignorance to all. Thank you so much for making us notice you Admiral Suckabagofdicks!

I'm not suggesting a ladder rope around BRC. Just around the burns. (The man, temple etc.). Otherwise, why stop at BRC? Build a rope ladder wall around the U.S.A. Make suicides suck again could be our slogan! Nope, just around the "burns".

I don't think it's been suggested (sorry if I missed it if wrong), but what about a 15' wide rope grid? Think a rope ladder to climb to a pirates mast or the tires used for football training where they have to step in each tire hole or fall down. Make the holes 2' square (or better yet varied) and s...

You people act like you care. You don't fuckin' care.

Hey Trilobyte, you have my blessings to change the thread name to So where is everyone's placement? Or some semblance of the sort.

Watch your feet, FWIW, I wasn't doing a theme camp for placement. I was doing a theme camp to have a bar, gong show and Playdidarod races (creating vibrant interactivity). But there's a lot of building/work/etc. involved and without early entry/a spot to build it, some if not most won't be possible ...

Ok, I just looked at every newsletter going back to May 25th again and saw nothing regarding anything that would give a clueless one a clue to a clue. What does it say and when did you get an "unofficial" clue? Again, not too concerned with where, just if we will actually get placement and thus the ...

Thanks, first time with placement and had no clue. It's not even a question of placement so much, I just wanted to find out if our camp was going to be accepted as there's a whole lot more work to do if it is with what we proposed. Kinda sucks that they would leave ya hanging regarding that aspect.

Sorry if the information is somewhere, I couldn't find anything. We applied for a new theme camp this year and have not heard anything yes or no. Are we S.O.L. or is there still a possibility of getting an email soon? thanks.

About half of the BLM I saw driving past me this year were either going 10 -15 mph, wearing no seat belt or both. When politely reminded of these safety measures, most just laughed at me but a few buckled up. Id like to think I saved some lives.

Pitchforks seem a mite Frankensteinesque. May I suggest our art community doing some nice murals on their otherwise artless fiberglass fences? Perhaps a simple gift of a table with some spray paints and a sign saying please help beautify us!

Prereflections... In a few years when the 1%ers can't get enough tickets because the sherpas of the sherpas are getting most of the tickets to help the sherpas set up the p&ps, we'll all look back on these times of innocence and growth and have a good chuckle.

Isn't a motorized trash fence within the orange trash fence redundant, and thus duplicating the original trash fence twice, making it in essence a trash fence within a trash fence, while ultimately creating what one could only call a trash fence squared?

You sure do waste a lot of time telling people they're wasting they're time because it's not done the way you say it should be done. So sorry to mellow your little burner board. Quite honestly I have to believe that more than one org. member reads these "rants". If any heads of any multi million dol...

I learned that a used craigslist bicycle will last EXACTLY 4 1/2 years on the playa. It's speed of death is also in some symbiotic relationship proportionate with the greatest distance you are from your camp. Both of my bikes died within yards and minutes of each other 2:00 and 2:40 pm. (and a mile ...

I have my key on a retractable key thingamabob. It's about the size of 4 quarters and has a 2' long spring loaded line. I have it safety pinned to the underside of my seat out of site. You can get em on line. Easy peasy. Just don't tell anyone I keep it there.

Cheers to whoever built OUTPOST #7 out by the trash fence. I was there at around 2 am Thursday morning. They nailed creepy! (Until a guy came in with a pepperoni pizza asking who ordered it), then it just transformed back into plain old wonderful playa preposterousness. Cheers to all the virgins I s...

Radical self expression now includes screaming PARTY! FUCK YEAH! over and over and a darling young couple fucking in the crowd during the temple burn along with cooking hotdogs on the temple embers. All of which I observed. I can deal with a lot of unconsciousness at the best thing I've ever been a ...

"Burning Man is a product. If you dont like that product, dont go. Stop bitching and do something better. Make BM a dim memory of a archeic hippie fest." So if only segways are allowed in two years, and vending and mooping is encouraged, we should just stop bitching and not go? How bout...no? If the...

Well said Lonesome. I got in on Monday, parked my van right before it started to rain and immediately started running from camp to camp covering and securing things. I also started waking up people in larger camps that I needed help protecting their things that would be ruined or blown away, (a coup...
