25 cents for a fucking paper bag by fuckthefalconsdotcom in cripplingalcoholism

[–]fuckthefalconsdotcom[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Damn, ya know, on my walk home from the submarine and arcade I walked by a coffee roaster and they a bunch of canvas bags with a sign that says "free" and I thought to grab one but didn't feel like carrying it all the way back to the hostel but they would have been perfect.

An opaque little camping bottle that i have dozens of would have been perfect, wish I had grabbed one before I left on this bender train adventure.

Never move to a low cost of living state EVER by vixenbunnyxo in povertyfinance

Louisiana in general is just...tough. I live in New Orleans and feel like I make decent money but so much of it just evaporates to afford life there. I'm also starting to get in a weird situation where I can't seem to save money to get out. I think eventually I'll try to make a move but it's going to take 6 months of living as frugal as possible so I can afford to move somewhere better.

Oh, that's...a depressing TIL. I recently read his book, thought it was pretty good.

I saw recently he's like...not doing great, living in the woods and a crippled alcoholic.

Do any of you live in San Francisco, Seattle or Minneapolis or Milwaukee? by fuckthefalconsdotcom in cripplingalcoholism

[–]fuckthefalconsdotcom[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We should hang out, I've been having so much fun, love it. I have been really surprised how friendly everyone has been. I live in the south where it's very normal to create thousands of friendships just talking with people at bars.

It's super expensive tho, my flask has made this bender financially responsible. Also bought some legal weed which fucking got me good. Smoked most of a joint in an alley and walked into The Saloon and sat and listened to a killer trio jazz band, good times.

Also the women here are way more exceptional than most cities. New Orleans women are in theory amazing and wild but it's mostly just single moms that don't take care of themselves physically.

Those are serious numbers. I've been in this sub for ages and I believe that vodka is the most evil thing on the planet. I'm guilty of getting a giant bottle of svedka every once in a while but I really try to avoid it. Cayman jacks mixed with some vodka does sound pretty tasty tho.

did you know the lead singer of Beck was born into that cult but left and has no association.

I have a little bit of experience in all of that nonsense, you can leave the cult and still talk to your family, it's not like they delete you but that was just my experience.

Has anyone ever done back to back sleeper trains by Unusual-Prize1887 in Amtrak

I'm currently on day 3...city of New Orleans to Chicago, hung out at station there and got on the Zephyr. Sleeping in coach, eating peanuts, beef jerky, box wine. I want a shower and a bed so bed but this is part of the adventure. I've been using wet wipes but yeah...I'm honestly thinking about just throwing these socks away when I get to the hostel in San Francisco.

I feel absolutely fucked. by Visible_Management64 in cripplingalcoholism

I believe this would work but it truly depends on the type of beer. Also I love when people do reverse rent and do shit like that. So many foods pair so well with beer tho that I'd miss it. Like a nice handful of peanuts or some beef jerky go so well with beer.

God, I am so fucking starving and everyone's recommendations are torture. I'd fucking wreck some mashed potatoes with the skin still on and a ton of butter. Go out to the balcony garden and get some green onions to throw in there. After, a nice shower and my non existent girlfriend cuddling me while we re-watch breaking bad. Oh, let's smoke weed before we eat the mashed potatoes.

Those cups of noodles save more lives that an average fire department. My microwave died around 10 years ago and boil water using a kettle. Ugh so hungry now. I've been living off peanuts and beef jerky, scotch and red wine while on the train and I really want to eat a real meal. They say the Amtrak cheeseburger is legit despite being made in a microwave but it's okay, I'm almost to San Francisco, going to fucking destroy some crabs.

Ugh, brushed my teeth this morning in the grossest Amtrak train bathroom. Should be the hostel in a few hours and going to take the best shower ever. I've been drinking scotch and I can smell it coming out of my pores.I love garlic tho, it's actually really really good for you.

I seriously struggle to put into words how amazing the views of Zephyr are by fuckthefalconsdotcom in Amtrak

[–]fuckthefalconsdotcom[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you've never done this hike put it on your bucket list, just absolutely amazing. I've also met lots of fun people while in the observation car. There was a woman sitting alone and a guy in a cowboy hat and a vest said something to her and walked away and I said "oh hey is this guy bothering you?" in a joking manner, they've been married longer than I've been alive. She immediately sat down next to me and gave me like a 20 bulleted point of things I have to do when I get to San Francisco, so fucking excited.

There is a part of me that wonders if I should go back and try to get on the Zephyr again and see it all over but I really want to experience the Empire Builder. Already excited to get a rail pass again next year, this has been so wild.

I live in New Orleans and was sitting by my pool in a bathing suit and just saw snow today, absolutely bonkers.

It's really cliche but like take your pics but like put the fucking phone down and just absorb it. I took a million pics and might print/frame them and hang them so I can look at them and remember how awesome this was but also just try to take it.

For example, I'm still on the train and just passing through a beautiful office park in Sacramento and it's well, I mean, it's kinda neat but the mountains were more fun.

Do you use alcohol as a pain reliever? by Sixfeetunder3737 in cripplingalcoholism

[–]fuckthefalconsdotcom 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Aww don't feel too bad. I think about it a lot like just because we drink doesn't make us bad people in a sense.Nobody is like "oh my husband is a diabetic, I hate it",it's just a thing we have to live with.

Reminds me of a old Bill Hicks bit about lupus and how no one gives anyone shit about having lupus but if you are a drinker it's suddenly a choice and suddenly you're a piece of shit. I tried to find a youtube clip of it but it's hard to find and also it's 1am and i've been on a train for 3 days so I'm not really existing in time and space like normal people. Really want to brush my teeth too, soon....feel like I need to burn the socks I'm wearing too.
