It was one of the most beautiful sights I've ever laid eyes on. There was an army of firedancers surrounding the base of the man, and we were nearly, all 30,000+ of us, there. I caught my breath as the flames took him and I felt the heat reach me from within. My lover was yelling for joy, and many o...

Rob the fabulous wrote: IMO, cheating is for the young. If you're still cheating on folks after you've grown up- you need to realize that you shouldn't be in a monogamous relationship. Or leave whoever you are with. Cheating is nothing more than dishonesty on a more emotionally pain-inflicting level...

This was my first Burn and I actually partied, which is something I rarely ever do in "default". Took some E one night and it definitely enhanced an incredibly beautiful evening that bled into the softest morning. Took it again the following night of the burn, after regretfully napping most of the d...

I confess also to missing someone who abused me, and to occasional annoyance at myself for doing so. I confess that I am much happier missing her than I was when I was with her. I confess to being totally directionless at this BM, and not doing half the shit I wanted to. I confess to having one hell...

I'm in. it would also be cool to have an army in hot pants handing the new and improveds out. You know, marketing.. (and an excuse to show off)! Kinda cheesy, but effective. Sort of like those car shows.. but more subversive.

Well, sure, I could, but then I'd feel all guilt-ridden. I'd rather just be honest. Informed consent is what I'm going for here, ya cheatin' bastard..

Yeah, it pretty much sucks. I'm working on putting something different together. Tough thing is, how to "market" such concepts as respect to the slime suckin' roaches that perpetrate such crimes. I guess that was part of why the issue was so low-brow in certain respects, to get the yahoos to read it...

Oops, I killed it.. That didn't take much. Come on, ya pansies.. what the fuck. Did anyone read it?

ok, polyamory then.. sheesh! And that whole midwestern deal only seemed to work out for the "men", right? Yeah, shitty deal..

I've just been sweating over this one myself (the polygamy thing, not sex with cats). P/S, it sounds to me like you already have what you want. if he's saying he doesn't want or need to know as long as it doesn't affect your relationship with him, then...? Safe sex should take care of any practical ...

Hell, yeah, I'm participating.. Woohoo! Viking, I like the "Girls' Guide/Boy's Guide" idea. Has any preliminary work been done? Sounds like fun... I'm up, anyone else? It would be cool to collaborate.

This has been one hell of an interesting thread. I'm liking all this critical, "big picture" thinking.. However, to veer wildly off/on topic, I've just checked out Viking's link to the "How to Get Laid at Burning Man" guide, and damn.. I don't know about some of this shit (namely, "Last Chance Snatc...

I'm so sorry to hear of this assault. This was my first burn, and I fucking loved it, but I did see a few things that made me nervous, namely people completely F.U.BA.R'd and aggressive-- saw some fights happen, and maybe it's nothing worse than would occur at your average night club, but damn. Date...
