Yeah I know there were some rant threads over the years grinds my gears and whatever. I don't think any of them were that happening to dig up. I probably made one of them honestly. Whatever.

I figured if we could rant somewhere we'd be more docile creatures in the rest of the forums.

You did Big Sky Jan 28, right?
DeebieSkeebiesI respect him, what he does, and the opportunity I'm given this season and we do get compensated for travel days, but yeah dude....we were getting up way-too-damn early in BC for a week straight and I feel like the fatigue cost us some quality skiing and comp results. We opted for like 5:30-6am ish and to get up there around mid-day to bust out some laps and check out the competition venues so there was some compromise. But yeah according to what I am seeing as far as weather, Had there be no comp this week Id be getting my ass out of bed no earlier than 10.

No, Ive been home the last week or so. About to go to Targhee, come back, go up to Snowbasin for a weekend, to Snowbird again for the Nationals there afterwards, PC IFSA 2*, and others. Just trying to find a good system to save the body while also still keeping up with the amount of work and skiing we gotta do still. I made a shit turn this weekend that made my left knee feel like shit and its been bothering me so heres hoping i find some chillness here and there, but I cant complain too much or at all

Went to taco time. Ordered a soft taco. Got s burrito instead. Burrito was 5050 sour cream to bean rstion. Prolly 60 40 sour cream. Eventuskly found a little bit of beef in there.

One of the worst burritos or tacos ive ever had.

Bummed because my friends swear by the place. Not a great first impression. Also 12 bucks is a lot for a chain fast food burrito. Especially a shitty one.

Looks like the forecast is for Sunshine Village, Alberta. Days get pretty short up here mid-winter, that's probably an hour+ more daylight than a month ago.

Omg omg omg omg omg huge winter storm the apocalypse is near omg empty the grocery stores, buy all the gas, don't forget the toilet paper. Fucking christ the entire midwest/east coast is losing their damn minds. It's a snowstorm 😑. I get back after a week off to find 15 different emails about plans for the winter storm, including options for employees to stay the night or that people may have to stay late if others can't get to work.

If you think for one second I'm staying over because we can't handle

Damn NS posting broke...

Riding alone is usually a bad call. I had to walk 7 miles back up a trail when my dirtbike broke down one time, I've smashed into multiple trees, flown off trails etc. Somehow I've come out okay each time but definitely had lots of close calls. If snow had been added into the mix then I would've been fucked in a lot of those same situations.

Yeah I’m pretty nervous. I spent all this morning getting ready & jack helped me out a bunch so it feels funny to bail since no one is with me. I might just check out the trailhead and see if i know anyone out today :\

Definitely only ride with friends or people you know. My buddy linked up with a random at a trailhead once and his sled broke down in an area with no cell. Stranger just rode off and didn’t come back, luckily another group passed thru and helped my buddy out

Or if you do find randos make sure its a group that has women. Something about having balls and a motor between our legs makes us really fuckin dumb.

Getting hair cut at supercuts is always a crapshoot, this time the chic cuts a little and asks, is that good enough? I'm thinking that's like taking your car to the shop and they replace the air filter and asks, is that good enough? Total bs, she's the expert at cutting hair not me, lazy slob, another shitty hair cut, whatever.

go to a proper barbershop and show them a picture of what you want. it's not that much more expensive and they do a way better job.

Try local mom/pop shops you may be surprised. I hold on to good barbers for dear life. I didn't have a good haircut till I was already a grown ass man so I know the feels.

You can tell them to take more off. Also if you get a haircut you like take a picture and show them if you suck at describing/knowing what you want.

The last time I got my hair cut was at the beginning of December. It cost 35 bucks after a tip and it still looks better than a great clips cut... Or don't go get a good looking cut and see if I care lol.

Well yeah dude I mean idk what you are expecting from a seven dollar haircut you get what you pay for.


I am not an especially fashionable or vain man but over the years I have learned the hard way that I have difficult hair to cut. It’s thick and wavy and the reality is if I don’t want to look like Lloyd Christmas I have to shell out for a professional. 🤷‍♂️

It was 23$ plus tip and have gotten satisfactory ones there before, just never seen this girl there before and I think she was just an extremely lazy individual. Went to a really good place 1.5 years ago but nobody was wearing masks so whatever

I am exhausted. I've been sleeping terribly all week. My anxiety about work is through the roof. Three of my fingernails have cracked down in the nail bed while lifting, and it hurts. Marriage counseling has required me to revisit past severe trauma that I've already had PTSD counseling for years ago, so it's draining me even more. Gahhhhhh. This next week is going to be hell. If I could just make it to February 22 without losing my mind or losing my shit...

That sounds so stressful dude :-(

I hope you find some peace of mind…

When things get too hectic for me I put all my phones/ laptops away and just try to focus on what’s in front of me in the moment. It’s helped so much for my anxiety / mental health / focus !

I feel this except my roomie doesn't know how to put dishes away, like he has the cleaning part nailed down but the putting away part goes out the window I guess. I have really bad OCD like my dad so I just say "fuck it" and clean everything and put it away.
