Soooooooo many posts, so little time.

BUT, when the thread is locked and jackass was the last post you HAVE to be curious.

Edited to add, crap trilo slipped in the final word. Really I hope they come and get over themselves.

Hi I'm a middle-aged, (wo)man-child and I've been researching this event for EIGHT MONTHS but obviously haven't spent even a fraction of an instant surveying this obviously hostile, snarky board that doesn't treat their old burgins with kit-gloves. We can't find a camp because for some reason anybody we ask gets all hostile and snarky anytime we ask questions or unnecessarily mention that we're middle-aged and don't like staying up late.

Is there some sort of pen for soft-shelled crab-people like us?

Hey man, don't get all snarky at us.




You know, I don't like your tone.

I'm looking for a camp to join. I won't take up much space. I have many useful skills. I am a clown, DJ and a spiritual leader. (all at the same time :wink: )

I'm looking for a camp with a raw food plan and steak and bacon dinners and plenty of fresh vegetables, and pizza and ice cream.

A water supply is a must, and showers. I'm not a smelly hippie!

And I need to plug into the grid. I need to power my RV air conditioning, and a freezer full of moopy Otter Pops, but those aren't for the camp, they are for me to drive around the playa in my art car and give away so I can spread the moop everywhere. Oh I need to plug in my art car too, it's electric.

And I have to arrive after the camp is set up, but I have to leave before tear down. I'm a busy person!

I tend to keep my own schedule, so I can't sign up for any camp duties. I need my beauty sleep.

I probably won't be around camp much either, I'll be out spectating!

But I'm willing to pay as long as it isn't too expensive.

I'm all for the 10 principles, but I have to keep true to the eleventh principle: ME ME ME.

So can someone find ME a camp?

Is a "ranger in training" without a ticket kind of like a "pre-med" student without an actual major?

If you were already going to take the road, why the fuck did you bother writing a post asking about it so you could ignore everyone (except the one guy) telling you it's not a great idea? Sheesh!
A plan is what you vary from.
