So they can sell you a brand new cartridge sooner.

Why is the outside of my honey-bear constantly sticky no matter how careful or tidy I am when using it.

you asked for it...

Post by Cassidy » Thu Jul 17, 2008 1:24 pm

Why can't i get that little ant off my screen?

Can I make a giant mudpit on the playa?

Is there a non-smoking section in the city?

Will i need to wear sunscreen if i'm covered in dust?

How much water do I really need out there? Can't I just drink the melted ice in my/my friends'/camp's cooler?

and my favorite one from last year:

Where do i go on the playa to get my free gift?

I'm full of 'em... I think a pamphlet with "real" answers to the most common questions would make a nice gift for the virgins. A nice introduction to the community.

The event ends on Monday? Does that mean they're burning the man on Sunday this year?

Where's the nearest Starbucks?

I didn't bring any water. Can I have some of yours?

If I show up alone is it cool to just set up my tent on the Esplanade?

Where to I get tokens for the attendant toilets?

You're not a cop, are you?

Whatever cop started the rumor that they have to tell you if you ask is a fucking genius.
