The person below me

[southern crone]

The few times I've had it, it was wonderful. There is a great Indian buffet in Thunder Bay, Canada.

TPBM has a great pair of shoes to wear on the Playa.

[MFOB]

I have shoes. I wear them there. I wouldn't say they're great, but comfortable and such. Short shoes, got lots of dirt in my socks and thing and stuff.

TPBM has a sweet pair of cowboy boots, and actually uses them for their intended purpose rather than for fashion.

[Elorrum]

If that were true, I would be a cowboy. Ok, then. I've never tried on cowboy boots that felt comfortable enough to wear all day, or walk much. As daily footwear, they remain a mystery to me.

Tpbm believes that quality footwear is well worth the investment.

[Thecatman]

Oh yeah! Most deffenately. That's why I always get Thorogood work boot 804 4200







When eating pizza,
TPBM folds the slice in half like they do in New York

[Eric]

Only if it's a thin crust cheese pizza. I hate the way toppings shift otherwise.



tpbm thinks the regional warfare over who where has the best pizza is ridiculous

[southern crone]

Sort of, different strokes for different folks. Crisp thin crust for me.

TPBM has entered a food eating contest.

[MFOB]

I have entered Beer Drinking contests, that's a primary food group, so I suppose I have entered.

TPBM like to beer bong beers.

[lucky420]

no, i prefer a different type of bong...i have played a game of beer pong or two


the person below me doesnt care if there socks match and has worn their shirt inside out

[Eric]

Good lord, do I look like a heathen? I'll play with patterns, but you can be damn sure my socks match - even the black ones have to be two of the same style. Fashion is not for the weak.





tpbm would never wear stripes with checks

[Simon of the Playa]

you're right.

i only use cash.




tpbm prefers bitcoin

[mgb327]

No, never, NFW. Olds Cool cash here.

TPBM has a credit card with a $500 limit.

[Elorrum]

No. I'd never had made it past Texas on my trip if that were the case

Tpbm broke open a dusty container recently.

[BeeWeeDee]

Yes. This morning in fact. I was getting my camping gear gathered for a weekend hike and when I opened my cooking kit, the dust flew out. I smiled. It's time to do this.

TPBM wants a different experience this year.

[ranger magnum]

Want it or not, I'm getting it. Going to the burn single, so it will be a different experience.

Better? No idea.

Different? Absolutely.

Tpbm hasn't even begun to prep for the burn

[southern crone]

I've been prepping for the burn for three years now and have never been. It's still fun picking up things here and there and dreaming about going. Some day!

TPBM has been so many times prepping is second nature.

[MFOB]

Prepping for anything is just something I do. Any trip to anywhere needs good planning, TTITD is just another thing with weirder stuff than I take "regular" camping. My motto is 7P's - Piss Poor Planning Promotes Piss Poor Performance.

TPBM knows how to wire EL wire together and is a pro bike decorator with it.

[Eric]

Nope. It's a skill I'd love to have, but haven't learned yet. I just wrap my bike in LED strands.



tpbm is buying even more LEDs that last year

[Jovankat]

Yep. We're covering our dome in them.

Well, the husfriend is. I'm doing my best to stay as far away from that project as I can

TPBM prefers and incandescent source.

[BeeWeeDee]

Yes. Especially around food. I like to see all the colors of what I am eating and preparing rather than a limited spectrum. I have a few cases of bulbs just for those fixtures in the kitchen. LED/CFD lights are OK everywhere else

TPBM has had to pass a field sobriety test recently

[MFOB]

I bought a fancy ass copper style breathalyzer. It was spendy but back in the day I got in trouble and it was a shit ton of money, lawyers fees, etc. Pain in the ass. So, I have it in my truck and every time I go out for the night, before I even put the key in the ignition, I blow on the thing. One time a few months ago, I blew it and pulled a .11, I waited and waited and waited, 3 hours in a parking lot until I blew again. .06. Not even 2 minutes after I got on the road I got pulled over for something stupid and he could smell beer. He gave the the breathalyzer and I blew a .06 again. He was pissed, but let me go on my way. Bing Bango bitches! So yes, I passed a field sobriety test recently!

TPBM has never been arrested.

[Eric]

Pfah. I would have been a boring youth then, wouldn't I?





tpbm has been arrested for something political

[southern crone]

No, never been arrested. I'm that good.

TPBM thinks Magic Mike is sexier than Fifty Shades .

[MFOB]

Never seen either of them. But I heard 50 Shades sucked pretty bad.

TPBM likes to watch cat videos in the net.

[MFOB]

Fuck No. I hate cats.

TPBM is ready for dust storms.

[MFOB]

Yup. Got my shemaugh and goggles. Tutu is dustproof, Im good to go.

TPBM loves AC/DC

[Eric]

They're whatever. Don't hate 'em, but also don't own any.




tpbm prefers grits over cream-of-wheat

[MFOB]

Shit yes. I love Grits. My ma grew up in Pensacola FL. I've been eating those all my life. Salt n Butter. I have friends I make grits for and they like Jam in them. Mmmm Grits. I might make some tomorrow.

TPBM is a vegetarian but eats fish?

[southern crone]

No, love meat, also love grits with bacon crumbled in it, spooned onto toast.

TPBM has a piece of burner jewelry featured in the new burning man jewelry book.

[goathead]

no idea if I do or not, haven't seen the book.
have made a few stones that I know people treasure though.

tpbm has studied at Simon's School of Self Dentistry

[Eric]

Fuck no. My teeth have roots so long they have trouble getting them all in x-rays, and last time one was pulled it took massive amounts of painkillers, two dentists, a hammer, and a really concerned looking nurse. Not kidding.



tpbm falls asleep in the dentists chair
