Oh for fawkes sake lets go burn something already

Post by BlackRockCityPimp » Fri Nov 25, 2011 3:44 am

Greetings eplayans,
I am here to network with likeminded individuals, lulz, and all around troublemaking. I live in South Florida and hate every minute of it. I used to work but now I am a lazy bum with limited mobility. This upcoming burn will be number 9 for me and I have participated on various levels but nothing too heavy. Sometimes I like to pretend to be a Ranger and hassle the weekenders and fratboy types but I do it soft and fuzzy so as not to get booted from the event. :-) I like burnin stuff and art but my true love is art cars above all else. I dig the villians that build the city and the circus freaks that entertain those of us that arent all etarded out lit up like a fawkin xmas tree. I dig electro mind you but I am a lil too old and wise to roll anymore. I can only deal with ravers in small doses so I tend to gravitate toward fire, contraptions, and camps when on the playa. Hope this is enough of a taste to let ya know what kind of fat ass jaded burner I am, if you are my sort of camper feel free to drop a line anytime, if not than stay outta my way lest you wind up in an asylum tryin to figure me out.

Welcome to eplaya, BRCP. Get out of Florida as fast as you can. You will find yourself eating dinner at 4:30 just because they give you free coffee (and all the Sweet & Low you can steal) Run and save yourself!
You will find the spirit of the playa here on eplaya, and hopefully you will get to meet many of the people on here in person.
Again, WELCOME and make yourself at home.

Stop lying, Sham. The eplaya is not the playa. The eplaya is filled with snarks and people who don't believe that it's morally incorrect to be "burnier than thou." Stop trying to make us look good.

Lol.. stereotypical Florida views from people that don't live here always crack me up. They think that it's nothing but a flat, alligator infested Disneyworld with old people everywhere. That's just fiiiiiiiiiiine by me though. If everyone knew what an incredible tropical paradise it is with natural springs and oak and cypress trees and rivers and lakes and beaches and open land that's so cheap to live in.. we would have people coming here by the busload.

It sucks here. Nothing to see.. move along.. move along..

My new understanding is that Florida is a nice place, unfortunately filled with man-sized man-legs with big toes for heads.

How do you identify your innocent victims? ? I am guessing the weekenders smell better than the rest, but I wodn't be able to tell frat boys from other young people.

Looking at this pic again makes me laugh a little. Being as that you can't see my heel, it distorts the POV a little and um.. yeah. Those are some man legs. Hear me roar.

Thats easy, weekenders can be easily identified and marked when they arrive on Thursday/Friday. Weekenders also dont have nearly enuff dust in the nooks and crannys of their clothing. The frat boys are the ones always trolling for intoxicated gals around 10 oclock and Esp. and taking pictures of the topless females and pantsless men. Fratboys can also be identified by clothing as well.

As far as any citizen of our fair city being innocent goes I call shenanigans. Mere entrance into our community makes anyone and everyone a potential target for pranks. And none of us are innocent, just knowing about Burningman makes you guilty. As far as being a victim goes.. nobody forces anyone to go hunting for poo funnels or critical tits parades. One of my favorites is to send ppl looking for critical tits to critical dicks. If they feel victimized they should question their own commitment to tits rather than my sending them to some floppy cock. Also in summation if anyone ever asks about the Canadian Beaver eating contest send em off to Comfort and Joy.

Thanks to all who welcomed me, and the fish is right.. most people on eplaya do not represent the playa. Most users with post counts above 5000 cannot be trusted and anyone that posts more than 10 times a day needs some additional hobbies.

Thanks.. either you cant be trusted or you need more hobbies. If you are trustworthy than you need more hobbies. Might I suggest more masturbation, or if already too raw from pounding you could always get into model makin or protest slogan writing. Someone needs to come up with something better than 99% since we all know that 99% of the country will never agree on anything.

This is probably true, tho for the most part you give out handy info and are probably one of the few exceptions. I think the few other times it called snark or somesuch and I still try to understand this snark thing. My IQ is probably too low to ever get the eplaya snark parade, I am more of a DPW parade sorta guy.

Yeah, give us enough pbr and we'll do that too.

Huh. I just assumed it was a pick-up line. Once again my odd little, off little geek mind misinterpreted the interaction. Oh well, I'm not going to offer to plan your zombie-themed Holstein wedding...

Just adding another useless post. How many do I have to rack up before I'm considered dangerous?

Now yer reading too much into it LOL..

I am still not a Ranger. I just saw you on the playa helping some dehydrated hippie one day. You have one of those looks thats unforgettable, in a good way. I couldnt be a Ranger if I wanted for several reasons, not enough restraint when catching date rapists and I thought Paul Addis was a fawkin trooper. I dont give a fawk what people say about the crazed lil tweeker, we all talked about torchin the man early for fawk knows how many years. He just had the balls to do it when everyone else was to much of a wuss. He picked a good year too, with all that commerce bein displayed under the man and all. Only thing he shoulda did was create a good enough diversion/ruckus to make sure the pavilion emptied out beforehand, putting people at risk for injury wasnt cool.

Seriously tho, I am NOT a Ranger, do not believe anything I say if I am kilted in khaki. I am just out to cause peaceful playful pranks on the noobs. I will however do Ranger like things, rags for noobs in duststorms, water for dried out hippies, babysitting people that have been dosed etc.
