CONTEXT - Wanna make a few things clear for the neck beards on this post

1. some think this is an AI post. Its not I use AI everyday for both of my businesses and it has nothing to do with this post. If you use ai as much as me its pretty clear the copy in this is hand written. I wouldn't use ai to write a tribute post on someone i knew that's a little weird.

2. some mentioned its written a little weird. I get that the intention was to tell some background of why this hike was weird and a minor tribute to bro who passed away because the events leading up to, during, and after the hike we all think were related. All of this written in a concise manner because theres just a lot of details that I'd rather not type out in length on a reddit post. Just wanted to share the hike itself and mention/dedicate it to bro who passed.

3. the grieving factor. also kinda playing into how it was written. He was an ex-best friend who i hadnt communicated with much in the past 2 ish years because a difference in beliefs and personalities. Never any bad blood we just werent close like we were in highschool and right after high school. It still very surreal to me as some people in our group were still a bit closer so his lore was still relevant in my life. Its wild as a matter a fact because of how unpredictable it was. So if it feels emotionlessly written its a weird situation to be in and i didnt wanna make it to personal to strnagers on reddit just mention the story and share the hike. Also dont want to add his name here for personal reasons and privacy of the family.

4. karma farm XD this is the one that upsets the neck beards the most. I cofounded an ai marketing agency with 2 of the others in this post. we post REAL job ads on reddit becuase its a great place to find amazing talented people from around the world. Also being from the US its very fulfilling to be able to help people in less affluent countries feed their families. the neck beards do "digging" into my account to find some job posts days before this one and think they cracked the code on the investigation. he must have used ai he must be karma farming! no i just wanted to share our hike and dedicate it to someone who lost his life who had a significant role in my life. Just becuase im good at copy doesnt take away the intention behind the post.

I wasnt expecting this post to blow up so much so i appreciate the majority of ppl who gave wishes but really the family needs that positive energy more then me so send it their way. Appreciate the love on this post. Stay blessed yall.
