    Friday Analogy: Going to see the new Warren Miller movie is like...

    ...eating a turd sandwich.

    I'm sure you can do better.

    Happy Friday everyone.

    Wow, that was quick. I think we already have a winner. That's going to be hard to top.

    using a tack hammer to frame a house - using the wrong tool for the job - I need more input, need more stoke!

    .... 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.

    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.

    Reposted from my comments in a different thread...

    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?
    If some of the best times of my life were skiing the UP in -40 wind chill with nothing but jeans, cotton long johns and a wine flask to keep warm while sleeping in the back of my dad's van... does that make me old school?

    ....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...

    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.

    And Warren Miller movies just happen to attract an inordinate amount of smug white "mountain people" (which is a crap "lifestyle" term...You want "Mountain People"? Go live in the bush in Alaska. But living in Breck or Park City or Jackson or whatever other enclave of crackerdom is NOT Mountain living...it's suburbia with better scenary.)

    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.
