I don't think he would've made it even with goon advice, IIRC he wasn't an experienced hiker and definitely wasn't in shape for such a physically demanding challenge.

Also, the aforementioned manic-induced attitude of "I know better and wouldn't let your discouragements and stupid suggestions interfere with my glorious vision".

Wasn't he having serious digestive issues by the time he aborted the walk (day 3 iirc)?

Mr. 47 posted:

He wasn't hungry, so he stopped eating. All the experienced hikers told him that, in those conditions, you need to force calories into yourself. He thought he knew better, so the third day he spent sitting under a blanket on a hill, glaring at park visitors and largely unable to walk. It was that day or early the next that he completely passed out in the park shitter because his body was shutting down.

A long hike is something I might do some day for some personal reflection time but, jesus. When people who have done that poo poo tell me I'm doing it wrong, I'm going to take their word for it.

Also maybe work up to it instead of going straight to the hardest challenge you can think of.

Gotta say, this thread has probably confirmed cps goon as the greatest saga, based on how often it comes up.

I find it interesting that you came into his thread to tell him you are ignoring him. It's almost like Mrs. Genesplicer's second grade girls who get mad at each other, then spend the rest of the day pointing out to each other that they are not going to talk to each other any more.

So you hate his stuff. Good for you. Why not spend your time experiencing things you do enjoy? But perhaps what you enjoy is complaining. Fine. Why not go down to Denny's and complain that the steak there isn't nearly as good as that really nice steakhouse downtown? Or maybe you enjoy being a dick? Go for it, I guess. There are worse hobbies than spending your time proving how much you hate something.

I could never understand why people would spend so much time screaming about what they hate, rather than focusing on what they like. I'm more of a "Vote 1 and move on" sort of guy. But to each his own. For now, the Hipsters run GBS and are busy posturing to each other over who can hate everything more than the others.

DINO DAMAGE was pretty funny, though I haven't been able to find the thread.

Some car goon (Boomerjinks) liked to make his cars vaguely resemble popular ones in media. He did a Jeep or something and Telltale wanted to use it, he said sure.

A few weeks later he posted a sob story about how it had some scratches on it and Telltale refused to take fault/reimburse him. So he posted here, on 4chan, reddit, etc to lead a witch hunt on the mean lady who worked at Telltale.

I believe she quit due to the harassment, at which point a few posters from FYAD noted

Noted what? I can't wait to hear the exciting conclusion of this story!

i don't get the point of the GunChicka gimmick account that was posted earlier. there's both actual women and actual disabled people on this site, so it's not like a disabled woman is some far-fetched, unbelievable personae that you'd need to be a master-puppetter to convince people of might actually insist. it's like going into a lunch thread and saying you had a 4 egg omelette when you had a salad and then thinking you're a master of disguise or whatever

imo, unless the guy behind the account was building up to trying to rip goons off with some kind of kickstarter about funding her robot legs, then the gunChicka gimmick is the tamest gimmick account ever.

Most of the reason it sticks with me is how long it kept going, and watching all the goons falling over themselves over her.

Caro got placed into detainment by the loving CIA, there is a 100% chance that he is in a psych facility and not allowed to use a computer or make phonecalls as part of his treatment. Like, it'd be pretty interesting if he started posting again, but the guy has serious mental health problems that require constant medication and care and he also certainly has PTSD from being kept in what is generally agreed upon to be one of the worst prisons outside of North Korea. The rest of that guys life is going to be hell. He suffers from several mental illnesses that lead to him going into prolonged delusional and manic states, once he gets on a concrete drug regimen he's going to have to face the things that he did in those states and it's not exactly the kind of poo poo people normally do (IE buy a car or gamble a lot).


He got traded back in a prisoner exchange with the CIA a while ago.

Pretty sure I saw someone post a link to his latest blog posts in GIP a while back, but after he got out.
