Dear Newschoolers:
I would like to formally apologize for all my earthly desires. I joined this site in hopes assimilate myself in a beautiful community of like-minded individuals, only to find that I had come at The Beginning of the end. It seems that all this new downtrodden generation cares about is looking Fly and getting Hyphy. All the glamour in the world cannot hide an empty picture frame, and snorting pills (i.e: getting hyphy) is not really something I see myself doing anytime soon.
For A While, I wanted to be a part of this thing, if only for fear that I was missing out on a rewarding experience. Over Time, I began to Realize that many of the senior members were right, this sight is long dead and gone. The soul has been sucked out of this wonderful place, and regurgitated into a 30 second brand endorsement. Listen to Garrett Russel while he sells himself at the cost of a piece of technical equipment, that which merely Facilitates his enjoyment, you can hear his soul Squirming to get free.
I Love Every single One of you, even the sexually uncomfortable preteens who will feel a compulsory need to sling derogatory terms in my general direction. It makes me genuinely sad to see what has become of this wonderful place, and I can only Hope that You All Ski with more Soul than that with which you post. Now go ahead, Invalidate my post with a clever one liner, if that's what makes you truly Comfortable.
Rock On, Fellow powder Lovers! JaH Love!
