Hey, I still drink heavily, have a bad attitude & like to burn shit. We're all the same down deep, though you may be a little better to eat after the End of the World As We Know It, with all that yummy fat marbling your flesh..... *hee*thisisthatwhichis wrote:What!?!?!
There are Burners that don't indulge Porky Pig products!?!?!
I hear what yer sayin' but you do know that Burning Man was in its infancy prolly more about blowin shit up, shooting guns and having a real good time than "personal growth" and connecting with others?jackmack wrote: burning man is not a big rave or art show... it's not a zoo. the art gallery down my street is ALL about art. burning man is about so much more...
If this is even remotely true, it just adds to the reasons why I will not buy absolutely anything from the great evil that is Walmart. Ugh, I can't imagine how much the Walmart in Reno makes off burners before the event.Kenny Z wrote:Well, lucky for you, and living in Reno, I know the inside scoop.
Burning Man is technically not going to end, however, they will need to find a new location. The BLM has made a deal with Walmart to give them a 99 year lease on 400 acres of land out there to place their new western territory distributing plant (why they need so much land is beyond me). There are still some hoops that Walmart will need to go through, however, the re-zoning has been approved and the impact fees have been agreed to. If everything goes as planned, construction will not begin until May 2013, however, surveying of the land will begin in 2012.
So anyway, I really doubt that Burning Man will end. It's just a matter of finding a new location that will support it.
Hey, if burners weren't too lazy to return it to Walmart after the event, then they wouldn't be making all that money. It's the burners' fault.DoriumLux wrote:If this is even remotely true, it just adds to the reasons why I will not buy absolutely anything from the great evil that is Walmart.

...then I am one immoral punk but I'm definitely a far cry from the crimes of Walmart. I won't say what I've done but yes, they have a fairly relaxed return policy. With the wages that their employees get paid and all the crap they have to take, I'm sure they don't care much either. Well, I haven't met one that has.jkisha wrote:That's exactly what they meant; and not being sympathetic is being too polite.

Here's a story from a Native American friend of mine who believes in and is well-versed in the 2012 Mayan prophecy about the end of the world:jackmack wrote:I heard a very serious rumor this year that 2012 will be the last burn.
Reasons: Too big, & it's deteriorating into something not what the founders wanted.
Sadly given the way it's going....I hope it comes to an end. It's becoming a big "scene" rather than sincere. 2012 would be a poetic way to quit the burn while it's ahead. Burning Man has done what it can... time for something new... completely unrelated.
Anyone else heard this rumor, can dispel this myth?
I'm a card-carrying member of Jews-for-Bacon. No, wait, that's Pork for Peace (an actual Burning Man theme camp in 2007 that featured Jews and Muslims convinced that if Jews and Muslims enjoyed bacon on the playa together, that we could all just get along. Did I mention they were handing out bacon??)Eric wrote:Inclusive unless you're Jewish, Muslim or vegetarian....thisisthatwhichis wrote:YES!!!!!!!!

just being cranky- I never pay attention to the stupid theme anyway and could really give a flying @#$k what someone else eats.
