Burning Man 2007

[bsobel]

I started a thread about this last year, as I recall there was only one or two other AT'ers going out to Burning Man 2006. We are in the middle of trip prep (mixed in with work, life, etc) and I was wondering if anyone else was heading out. If so, perhaps an AT meet is in order?

Decided on new playa transporation for this year. Just need some red/white EL wire kits and a Dr. Suez hat to round out the look from last year

I'd love to go sometime ... but it won't happen in the near future unfortunately Maybe once the kid is old enough.

Probably completely out of the question for at least another 14 years

The good news is for most vacatoins we have a nanny who lives here, the bad news is she goes to BurningMan too so its the one time of year that Grandma is roped into taking over for a week

reminds me of the Reno 911 episode where they're all dressed up and heading to burning man to bust drug users.. ah.. that was a good one.

I'm REALLY tired by all of the emails I'm getting about Burning Man fundraisers - why should anyone help pay your way to travel to the middle of the desert to fuck hippy white chicks? I just don't get it, maybe it's because I'm a minority... Is there any fellow darkie out there who cares or am I right in this being a totally oddball white person fascination, like "Friends."

(P.S. I love white people)

I'm white and I don't give a shit about it. I may have at one point a few years ago, not anymore though.

 

[pontifex]

i'm white and have never cared

To be clear, I'm not saying that ALL white people care about Burning Man, I'm just thinking that ONLY white people care about burning man...

I wanted to go a few years ago when I was in college.

To fuck hippie white chicks.

I'm over it now.

I've never even heard of fundraisers for people to go to Burning Man. Around here people just save up and go.

This isn't me blogging - it's me really wondering:
a) what the hell is the appeal? I mean, when I was 12 maybe this would have sounded cool but these people are not 12...

b) Why oh why do people feel like they need to throw fundraisers, so you can pay their way to what looks to me as just a social gathering? Seriously, I'll throw a few bucks down for march of dimes or aids walk-a-thons but helping you pay to bang hippy chicks? Where does that arrogance come from - do people think of burning man as "social service?" and do I just not get that?

c) Seriously, is it only looney white people who care (white people who are looney, i'm not calling all white people looney)?

You must have quite a few stoner friends if you're getting a lot of Burning Man emails.

It's a stoner hippie thing not a white thing.

Hippies followed Phish and the Grateful Dead around for months, too. Damn dirty hippies!

(I rebelled against my parents by not doing drugs.)

[torpid]

I thought it was just a get high and do stupid stuff thing, didn't realize there were free white chicks involved. Maybe I should go.

Wow, that's pretty and all but I'd rather jerk off to lesbian porn when shouting "oh my god, oh my god" like the dork on the video.

You choose:

a) Since I started the thread, and you continue to crap in it, how about starting your own and in the meanwhile STFU.

b) Based on your L&R posts hopefully your an expert at jerking off as it's unlikely any woman is going to help you.

That said, anyone else actually going?

 

[GenHoth]

Never heard of it

I would love to go, but I doubt I'll make it. Unless I can find some transportation from Salt Lake City (I blew a head gasket on my car).
