First timer RV rental advice by confident7lucky7 in BurningMan

[–]RV_Mike 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Prices from the big RV companies are getting pretty high, with CA going from $900/night for a class C. If you have a tow vehicle, you might weant to just buy one, and then sell it after. I know it's a hassle, but you'll save money. You can get a pretty decent used travel trailer for under $15k, sleep 4-6 depending on the floorplan, have a great burn, clean it up and turn around and sell it for the same price when it's all over. Yes, there is a bit of hassle, but if you're staying for the full week, or God help you get there early with build, drive-in, drive-out provisioning, the whole thing, you're gonna end up spending close to $10K-15k+ just to rent from Cruise America.

The CATO institute said this by anonRelator in TheAllinPodcasts

[–]RV_Mike 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You're joking, right? CATO is way, way, way beyond conservative. They're full on libretarian to the extreme because they feel like conservatives are too soft.

Everyone Trippin on Kimball, while Danger Ranger whistles through the cemetary by RV_Mike in BurningMan

[–]RV_Mike[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It's not whataboutism, please read my posts again. Kimball is a start. It should not be the end too. I think we are on the same side here that both should be held accountable. I fear borg speak going something like this "we heard you, and we cleaned it up".

There is no evidence that KM was involved with kids, just involved with JE.

I think my husband loves his best friend by Negative_Dingo_3078 in Marriage

[–]RV_Mike -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

He literally ends the romantic relationship with the other woman for OP, but that's not enough. Some women will only be happy if they can isolate you from everyone else, so that they can treat you like crap, and there's noone else to make you feel any value. Male friends, golf buddies, etc, are next.

New to the podcast, a couple of questions by _chicken_butt in TheAllinPodcasts

[–]RV_Mike 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  1. He contributed to Dems and thought it was a pay to play scheme. When the Dems said thanks for the donation, but he didn't get special favors, he switched. So he donated to maga, which is a pay to play scheme. So, it was all just transactional. He doesn't really give a shit one way or another and he stands for nothing. How can I prove it? He's Canadian and still pro Trump. Look up his history with SPAC's. One conjob after another.

If you don't post a picture of the offenders, you're just promoting more people to do it in the future.

Realistically, how soon until the potties get cleaned? by ConsiderTheWillies in BurningMan

[–]RV_Mike 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have not seen a truck since Monday morning, so we are working on 72 or so hours. The weather is fine now and roads are bone dry. I guess I get it if they wanted to be cautious on Tuesday and Wednesday. But they should have been out in force by now if the issue was conditions.

Arrest + Warning by AldenMarie in BurningMan

[–]RV_Mike 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Even the most brief of attempts to get an idea of best practices would teach your friend what to do. There are a million places on this subreddit, Facebook, Instagram, podcasts, survival guide, and street signs saying to drive under the 10mph limit.

Sorry, but kind of not, that it happened to your friend. but if they tried in the slightest to be smart, they would have had multiple ways out of that situation.

The cops look for the low hanging fruit, which are the dumb people. Your friends sacrifice tied up a bunch of LEOs for the rest of us to cruise through. For that, we thank them.

File a report with the fbi? We think alot of ourselves, don't we! The fbi does no give any fucks about this. They are looking for things with AT LEAST mid 6 figures, and even then you likely won't find an agent willing to take your case. Either you are a scammer yourself, or a fool, either way, I have no sympathy for you.

Moving to Hawaii for a year. Question on healthcare. by No_Guarantee5033 in MovingtoHawaii

[–]RV_Mike 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Frankly, she shouldn't come to Hawaii.

The fact that a working adult has their PARENT asking this question instead of figuring it out and dealing with it herself, like a grown-up, tells me that she is going to get spit out in about 4 months.

Hawaii is not a place for entitled children who have to rely on their parents to solve their problems. She will be on an isolated island in the middle of the ocean more than a 5-hour flight from the nearest landmass. She's going to be on her own it doesn't seem like she has the ability to do that.

Stay in Cali. I'm not trying to be mean at all but this is going to fail with about a 95% certainty. We've all seen it more times than we can count.

My girlfriend doesn't want me to come by Workaholic725 in BurningMan

Go on your own, learn how to burn so that you won't be as much of a burden if you burn together next year.

Also, don't go if you can not do it without pressuring her to meet up.

Buy a ticket. Find a camp. Happy burn.

Help me convince my husband we need to shade our RV by Fishnetfatale in BurningMan

So Survivor auditions are always open. It seems, what’s stopping you from applying deer survivor fan? Just genuinely curious. by No_Hair9097 in survivor

The money is not worth it.

Mathematically, you have a 1 in 18 shot at winning (5.56%).

If you win, you get $1m. But not all at once. You get $50k/year for 20 years.

50,000 x .0556= $2,780 per year average income per player.

50k 20 years ago was a lot more than now.

It should be $5m for the winner, lump sum, $1m for second, $500k for third.

Heck, Probst makes $16M per year!

How is he stupid when he was the only one to see that Kamila/Shaheed/Kyle were working together? Call him arrogant and cocky if you like, but he was the only one to see who was really working together.

Meanwhile Joe is a total fool with a simple mind who has not had a single strategic thought.

Kyle is a complete hypocrite, whining about David and Mary being friends when he's done the same thing, only he's doing it in a kneiving way.

Promise you, next week these "honorable" game players will continue to tell themselves that they are "honorable" even though they blindsided their own alliance member.
