Happy Friday everyone.

it's like eating a hot slice of pizza after getting novacane.
like a boob job on grandma. its a valiant effort, but when you look closer, she's still old, annoying and smells funny.
.... is like getting a bunch of relativly cheap ski passes for sitting through a ski movie, which is better entertainment than what most of you morons will be doing on the night that it is shown.
Its like watching 2 girls Eating SHIT
it's like eating two-dozen doughnuts.
Before you start, it seems like such a good idea. You haven't had a good doughnut for so long.
Half way through you realize how bad it is, but you can't stop.
By the time it is finished, you just want to puke and you promise yourself you will never do that again.
riding a moped....?
...like being to lazy to masturbate?
.....the worst hangover I have ever experienced. Puked in the morning in fact.
You've eaten a turd sandwich?!?!?!Quote:

To those who will groan about using WM for ski stoke... We don't have a lot of choices here in Packerland to get teh stokage. Not like I can go hike for turns around here anywhere now, no snow brah. Kinda like growing up a preachers kid, you have to settle for the bras and undies section of the Sears catalog trying to find the nipple show thru when there are no playboys or hustlers laying around. Comprendo? :redface:
....going to your 10 year high school reunion.
The same people every time, the music sucks, the chicks are fat, way too many Chachi's. And the booze is shitty.
I'll take the free lift tickets tho...
... like reading stupid shit on a ski message board
Well, going to see ANY of these ski movies is about the same as you say...I mean, just how many smug, self-important, psuedo-liberal white people can you cram into one room and NOT get creaped out? And this coming from a white guy who is just to the left of liberal...the crowds at the ski movies just leave me feeling...well...dirty.Quote:

What's Warren Miller?
the offers sound great and all
until you realize the free crystal ticket is only good on tuesdays of particular weeks
and the mt hood one isn't good until april
YEAH!!!
stupid, cause you can rent it for five bucks or less when it comes out on dvd. And Ptavv's correct too. Most of those free lift tickets have so many blackout parameters that they are useless. And you can't do bong hits during the movie when you go to the theater.
But,
FWIW, I know I will be seriously jonged, I think the Gulmarg and Doug Coombs stuff in Off the Grid, which I just caught, are quite good pieces of ski cinematography.
Next season, 2 weeks in kashmir.
...sex with fat chicks?
Seems like the answer around here. Had to post that.
.... is like working on a shitty term project. You know should be doing it, its part of the value system your parents taught you when you were young. But realistically, it has very little to do with anything in your life.
Except for the train wrecks getting off the lifts. That's pretty much spot on.Quote:

It's funny as most of the replies are on the main easy thinking side.
"No ski film can be nearly as good as TGR'ones."
"Warren Miller is 81 y.o. All his stuff is old school."
"Any Star Wars instead of any Warren Miller's film"
"Who is Warren Miller ?"
"FTSU anyone who like Warren Miller's films"
O.K. he is not the best-though some shots are amazing.
But he is certainly not among the worst.
I just got an email from some of my friends to go to the Calgary show. They made fun of me for going to all 3 nights ($30) of Freshtival to see the 'good' ski movies, now they want me to pay $25 to see Warren Miller. The Calgary show deals are useless as well (2 for 1 Norquay lift ticket, $50 off RCR 'vacation package' and $20 ski cellar gift cert with restrictions (probably no sale items or total purchase > $500).
The worst part is, I'll end up going, even though sitting at home watching Lost & Found/SSD/Believe/Optimistic on DVD would be a better evening.
... is like getting to college your freshman year and finding out your roommate is a Mormon.
...trying to masturbate to softcore pornography.
At least that is what I read on Wikipedia:

Make that two guys riding on a moped.Quote:

While the rest of the HARD CORE wanker faggots stay home and bitch to their internet friends because they are way, way more extreeeeeeeme than anything WME will produce, and then therefore his movies suck.
It's like getting sentimental and crying at a Michlle Pfiefer/Tom Hanks/ Billy Crystal movie.
I like this - Found in the Wikipedia entry listed above:
Warren Miller's movies are known for his wry narration and one-liners. Some of his one-liners are simply jokes, while others are profound life-statements. Many of his best lines have been used in several films, and a few have been used in nearly every film. The following is a list of some of his better-known quotes.
- If you don't do it this year, you'll be one year older when you do.
- Don't take life too seriously, because you can't get out of it alive.
- Adventure is the invitation to common people to become uncommon.
- You want your skis? Go get 'em.
- On the other hand, you have different fingers.
- If you saw your dog doing this, you'd take him to the vet and have him fixed.
- If your parents didn't have children, odds are you won't either.
- See you next year, same time, same place. Thank you, and goodnight. (Warren Miller's signature sign-off at the end of a film)
- If you come to a fork in the road, take it.
- If you can afford to go to college, then you don't need to.
- Definition of Extreme is to go past your known limits by an unknown amount.
It's like a dude-umentary. Without the dudes.
like booking stein for a private, but jerry shows up instead.
