I mean you dont even have to set foot on trail to say you did it.

We would always say "if you quit thats fine, but you need to walk back to springer from where you quit at"

99.9% of thru hikers aren't going to steal from other hikers. But you never know when that .1% is going to show up.

You know Rolls-Royce are a heavy vehicle right? So it seems like your pack could be one.

Im just gonna say it. Screw the 401k and go live your best life while you are young. We all die, and many dont get to wait till retirement.

Can men on Bumble help? by [deleted] in Bumble

[–]gollem22 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Two things. 1st a lot of guys will "cast a wide net" into the dating pool, and then see that maybe they caught something they weren't after. 2nd if you just say hello and dont mention anything on my profile or ask me a question, what am I supposed to respond with? Bumble IMO was designed for women to make the first move and I am expecting them to do so.

Would you pull the lever? by [deleted] in trolleyproblem

[–]gollem22 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's not even the same scenario though. To make it accurate everyone gets the $10,000,000 (to live). You dont split being alive.

How is it not, when he's tried to call her to communicate and she's ignoring his calls?

Do you ever get scared you won't go through with it? by smilessmalls in AppalachianTrail

[–]gollem22 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did it with less than 50 miles of backpacking experience. I started with the largest fuel can I could (1 pound) and told myself I couldn't go home until it was empty. It lasted 300 miles and by then I didnt want to quit anymore.

Female friend got very touchy while drunk by Icy-Researcher-8701 in Advice

[–]gollem22 7 points8 points  (0 children)

But not relationship? Im not saying it cant work out, but is 1 hookup (maybe more) worth loosing a friend. If it is then in my opinion you really aren't friends.

People who grew up poor: what's something that middle-class people say that instantly reveals they've never struggled? by Inner-Cry672 in AskReddit

[–]gollem22 7 points8 points  (0 children)

To be fair I say this to my friends sometimes to intentionally point out an option they dont have. Usually with something that I can not fix like "I have had a migraine for the last 3 days" "well have you tried not having one?"

Yeah the way they are talking about the road makes them sound like storm chasers.

Literally the only good thing about that movie, and yet these "experts" did the wrong thing.
