Polly Ass getting to ya Buster?
Never in U.S. history has the public chosen leadership this malevolent. The moral clarity of their decision is crystalline, particularly knowing how Trump will regard his slim margin as a “mandate” to do his worst. We’ve learned something about America that we didn’t know, or perhaps didn’t believe, and it’ll forever color our individual judgments of who and what we are.

No, but that blug (past tense of blog) rang some salient notes for not only polyass and the divorce thread and Houston flood rants, but also more widely in the tone of political exchanges (they're not really discussions without some level of empathy) worldwide.

Agreed, I was just goofing around. The internet chat forums make it real easy for people to lose their shit where as IRL, they would behave differently likely for a variety of reasons, but it is easy to check your Humanity at the door when behind a keyboard and someone is pissing you off or you find their take to be 180 from your own.

I've definitely become more of a dick here. Maybe because I haven't skied with any of you (absolutely none of you!) in at least nine years.
Make skiing, not war, anyone?

One of the long board day attendees didn't know about BBI either. I gotta remember his name on here, we talked about it on the lift. Crystal skier but I think he used to be an alpental regular

Skiing with us/them was pretty rad. Bunch of like minded folks dick'n around in the snow having fun. BBI17 was the most fun event/gathering/ski thing I'd been to in years. Originally Posted by Viva
