I apologize for being a dick
I apologize for being a dick
I apologize for bitching at a guy for asking to put his cup in my trash bag. I had been collecting moop, was cranky, and decided that because you used the words "my cup" instead of "this cup I picked up off the ground" that you had just gotten the cup from a camp giving away beverages, that you neglected to bring your own non-disposable cup, and that you were then hoping I would free you from the responsibility of properly disposing of it. I should have asked you where you got the cup before refusing to take it from you.
I apologize for accidentally shining my headlights on two playa BJs while driving my art car around Saturday night. I turned away as fast as I could and wished you had not felt it necessary to stop what you were doing. I will attempt to make my forward lighting less jarring next year.

I spend a lot of time picking moop. I have a grabber. It's easy to pick stuff up with. If I see a bunch in front of a camp. I get off my trike After being on my bike for a while. The only way I can get off is to fall off and catch myself before hitting the ground. Then get the cane. Some times I shake before getting to move. "This little fucked up show I have to do" gets campers off there dead asses in a hurry. Most people help fill the moop bag as I go by.
The funniest is when people see my moop bag, pick something up real quick, deposit it in my bag, then keep walking. Great, you picked up ONE piece of moop that I would have gotten just fine.
So, does anyone else have any overstimulation/sleep deprivation/dehydration-induced dickery they would like to get off their chest? I know I wasn't the only one.

i would like to apologize to the guy who came up to my camp at 4am and started pissing a few feet away from where i was sleeping. i grabbed a high-powered led flashlight, rolled over, shone it directly on him and his little wang, and screamed, "DO NOT PISS HERE!"
dude's face was pure shock and horror as he tried to cut off the stream and run for it.
actually, never mind. i don't apologize. it was a glorious moment.

I can't grasp why you would get mad at someone asking to use your garbage bag, moop or not. I understand your apology and think it's cool that you're doing so, but it sounds that you're only offering it seeing that it wasn't his garbage.. Who cares if he was just coming from a camp/neglected to bring a non-disposable/etc. Would you really have said no if it was indeed from a camp and project the assumption that he's the type of guy who always relies on other people to free him from his responsibilities? Seems much easier to just toss the shit in the bag and move on..
Maybe I should have also let the guy empty out all the garbage from his camp. I was carrying a huge garbage bag, after all. Why shouldn't I be expected to let stangers pawn off their responsibility on me? I mean, I was carrying around a plastic bag in broad daylight! Just like how as soon as many people leave the event, the first garbage can they see gets filled, then piled high, then a pyramid builds around it. It's actively looking for the slightest justification to pass the responsibility on to someone else because you can probably get away with it.
Yeah, it would have been easier to take it and in most situations I would have. For whatever reason, I was in pissy moral crusade mode at that moment and the guy rubbed me the wrong way.
Let me ask you this - if I had not been carrying the bag but happened to have large pockets would it still have been acceptable for him to ask me to deal with his garbage?

I'm positive I was a dickette to someone at some time. If so I'm sorry, unless you deserved it.
I have some harsh words for the folks who used my pin and clip bag on the Home for Wayward Art for trash, and to the mook who thought their unwanted costume helmet made of rice krispies and mentos was art enough to donate late Sunday afternoon. I damn near left it on one of the traffic cones but that would have been wrong. I am looking forward to SMASHING it. Dicks.

ditto...
Sorry to the guy who stopped to thank me for doing moop duty and told me he had more "moop" for me as he dug into his backpack. I gritted my teeth and told him to please take his moop back to his own camp...but he was actually trying to give me a gift. It was a really cool lighter.
Sorry to the folks at "DMT - the Lab" when my husband ran up and started yelling at them after spotting our stolen bikes in front of their camp. They turned out to be really nice and obviously had nothing to do with the theft.
Sorry to our "neighbors" for telling them they should move to 8:30 and Disrespectful after they decided cram up between our and our roadside view, box us in and peg their tent down UNDER our car so we could not even walk between. Still, it was a little much folks but we could have handled it better.

them stopping was not your fault. how dare them, i mean really now thats just not acceptable. dont they know that rangers will approach them under the heavy suspicion that someone is being sexually assaulted? after all, the rangers dont know, and they will err on the side of caution and stop whatever is going on no matter what.

I apologize for beng a dick
I was a dick to the guys at Vamp Camp on the esplanade on Saturday, because they had an obvious newbie out on the street calling out "come get some free stuff people, we're giving it away for free!"
And no, it was not meant sarcastically. They had what amounted to the contents of 10 supermarket vending machines sprawled on their bar. I was a dick for making some snarky remarks about resembling a sale at Target.
Got those guys were idiots! I apologize again.
