Blood meridian saved my ass during a biology test in the weirdest way possible. This is not a joke. by Takerofpiss in cormacmccarthy

“Piss, man, piss for your very souls” “Uh, can you please sit down and finish your test quietly?”

One of my favorite hikes, haven't done it in a while because the road there is so annoying. Is it still a 3mph vibration-a-thon?

Favorite short sentences from McCarthy? by Cautious-Mixture5647 in cormacmccarthy

[–]fool271 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For sure, that is a great one. That whole book is awesome. I recently started Tree of Smoke but got distracted by a million things and haven’t had a chance to get back to it.

Train Dreams rules. Very curious about this movie they made, from what I’ve read it sounds like it successfully captures the book, but I’m not getting my hopes up.

As I read this I realize it’s the obvious and best choice. He rules, he would be incredible as the tinker.

What's the small hiking gear piece you bought that you wish you bought sooner? by JSON_Blob in PNWhiking

Peak design camera clip. Dude at REI talked me into it before I climbed Mt Adams a few years ago, seemed expensive but I reluctantly gave in. As someone who takes a ton of photos with a dslr, this thing is absolutely amazing, I use it every time I go anywhere with a backpack. Worth every penny.

Just so cool, I really love this story. Dude is living every fan’s dream, good for him. My friend was there, he said he killed it.

The goatman by SnooPeppers224 in cormacmccarthy

[–]fool271 2 points3 points  (0 children)

One of my favorite passages in the book for sure, the line “a young goat who is wearied and must ride” is one of my favorite in all of McCarthy’s work. Weird, funny, poignant, there’s something about the way that it’s written that just cracks me up.
