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.
RparrAlright I'm officially never filming with anybody else ever again. If the shot isn't taken on my phone/camera, I'm never fucking seeing it. I don't know why I even try
Fucking preach dude, earlier in the season my friend and I would ski carinthia with some kids from our local hill and they always film for their little Insta page so usually they'd film us just not as much. Probably have 5 solid bangers from December while my friend probably has 10 we haven't seen, don't even wanna be in the edits, just want to see fucking footage. Currently have 2 edits in the works from 2 people, neither really wanna communicate on it or send me literally 4 shots for the gram cause it'll only take 10 minutes.
Also can never sleep past 7am anymore, even without an alarm I'll be up at 630am on a Saturday, good for skiing early I guess, just not on days off.
RparrMy jimmies would still be rustled to this very day
Yeah i was pretty bummed bevause usually was always working in the park 6 days a week and always missed filming with friends other than the occasional random shot.
Probably my best season riding. 08/09. Had some inferno jump shots, some decent rail shots, loon hike and huck.
Wasnt anything epic but if I took the lifetime of shots inhabe access to i could probably make a 30 second edit. Now that im a pussy and dont ride very hard itd be cool to have a few shots of when i was 50% less of a bitch.

my whole let the goons in edit was filmed using random kiddos, i just made sure they sent me the shot immediately after they got it in front of my eyes
Military commercials in the basketball games. Meh. Idk, I hate the military advertising in general but the ads suck. "As long as their are battles their will always be a need for marines" How about we stop invading every fucking country, and keeping absurd amounts of troops their forever.
Just quit my job on the spot because a close friend (and very good cook) was fired for having one beer at the bar hours before his shift. Now we're both banned from the fucking place forever.
People that get all freaked out about cougars and freak out on social media until some woman is freaking out at the Dept. of Fish and Wildlife to the point that they go on a cougar hunt. WTF. As far as I'm concerned there is an unspoken don't ask don't tell policy about predators for just this reason. This is freaking Oregon people. We live in the freaking sticks. I don't want to get overrun by rats. There are cougars bears etc in town all the freaking time. Every night. They like to hide and no one ever has been hurt by a predator in my town in spite of some extremely stupid townsfolk. Freaking giant does that are not scared of people are way more dangerous. Just shut up about the cougars people and if a woman comes up to you freaking out tell her to shut up too don't pass her freakout on the the rest of us. People deserve to live in a world without people having abusive freakouts.

Sucks for him but that's the stupidest thing I've ever heard. Why would you quit for someone.

I totally thought this was about people being freaked out by aggressive older women at first.
We have a cat up around our jib garden on the mountain. I'll probably never see it but I'm okay with that. Would probably get scared if I was working on a feature and just saw the thing rolling up. Actually, that wouldn't bother me that much. It's just knowing that it's tracks are all over and I'll probably never see it.

Well it sort of is about people getting freaked out about aggressive older women. No one ever would have done anything if a couple of ladies hadn't freaked out hard core all over social media and on multiple phone calls to the ODFW and the police etc. They won't give any reason why they killed the cat except that they deemed it a public safety hazard and at the same press conference they confirmed that no one in the state has ever been hurt by a cougar. People love having a shit ton of deer in their yards to watch but IMO it's sad to see sick and lame deer walking around. I'd be stoked to see a cougar kill a deer in my yard but that is what the biggest complaint was. A woman in town got pictures of a cougar killing what looked like a lame deer in her yard and freaked out hard core until the ODFW caved and said they'd kill it.

Damn that fucking sucks. I want to live in places where there are wild animals, but I want to kill them if they get anywhere near me
Super boring pile of work right now. Basically bunch of data entry and other computer BS. New snow in the forecast too so it's super hard to focus but if I can crank this out I really have no reason not to ski pow with my buddy on Friday.
dont know why I did it but of course the media coverage on the "texas serial bomber" is infuriating as per usual. another sick piece of shit thats getting milked and glorified.
hes a fucking terrorist, not a serial bomber. anyone who wants to harm other people for whatever cause and cause massive panic and fear is a fucking terrorist.
A hall is a snake for calling those last two tricks. He knew Aleksi couldn't spin swr and did it just to win. Also Steve should have called Aleksi sw bio 9 good. Just really pissed me off and I am now rooting against A Hall in the tornament
really miss being able to ride the final weeks of the season out but damn theres still crowds and still traffic.
cant wait for sundance and FIS Worlds week to overlap next year, brilliant planning for a town that only has two exit/entry points
theabortionatorYeah def hasn't been much skiing on his ig the last few years
Hasn't skied since Olympics it seems but it was tough I imagine, but most athletes just ended the world cup season last weekend. He's on shitty Wednesday night reality shows sometimes and does a lot of non skiing magazine shoots.
theabortionatorhad some crazy idea to actually sleep before going into work tonight. Looks like that's not happening. Hopefully it's not a super crazy night.
Douchey gay jokes in the workplace like it's the 90s.
I still dig the fact that everyone says "nobody cares if you're gay" but people still hold a lot of bullshit. Things are a ton better, pretty mellow but still. Somebody might not say crazy racist stuff in from of a black guy, but it doesn't mean they aren't racist. The shitty thing with the gay issue is not being able to tell.
In most cases I would just tell the to go fuck themselves and probably mention that I was gay. But in other places I've realized it isn't worth it. You get judged hard. At a place you've only worked at for a season it's not worth it.
It's like it's some bad thing. If everybody heard you were a thief they'd view you differently. Holy fuck he had a bag of chips in his hand, did he steal it? I bet he did!!!!.
Shitty to make an analogy with something negative but that's how people view it. Finding out somebody you were friends with is gay is a let down. Ah fuck, they're gay? Lame. I thought they were cool, I guess I was wrong.
I'm all about being open, but I've learned it's better to make your first impressions etc, before anybody knows that. Otherwise people just get in their ignorant cliquey shit talking groups and it just continues as is. Your not one of the crew anymore, an instant outsider. And that's fucking bullshit.
It's 2018. I really hate that this is even a thing still.
People say things like "let it go, nobody even cares" I'd be stoked about that, but that's not where things are at. Ignorant fucks have a half life. And with their breeding habits probably worse.
On the one hand representation is key. I've had friends or people I knew semi well say something generalized about gay people. I was like "I'm gay" and that was a holy fuck moment. Not because they realized that they mentioned something stupid in front of a gay person, but they realized that somebody that had no problems with, didn't even think was gay, was gay. And that epiphany of maybe every gay person isn't a _______(whatever they're preconceived ideas are).
To some ignorant douchers, knowing your gay at the start makes them find faults with you to match their idea that gay people suck. It's kind of shitty. If you think somebody is a tool that's fine, but base it on their actions not because their gay, black, or whatever else. Not everyone is going to like you that's life, but base it on real shit.
I feel you. It's cool to have cool roommates that you can go ski, hike, drink with etc. But I feel like from all the roommates I've ever had, I'd much rather have non existent roommates. If you get super chill roommates cherish it.
It was always a goal of mine. Now I'm more like "please baby jebus give me some roommates who don't make me want to jump out the first story window and not dry till I eventually starve, even though all my limbs are still intact. "
Yeah it seems to be that way. Personally I'd be stoked if it wasn't a thing, but always dank rounding out your workday with some high quality comedians.
I will say on the plus, the snowboard teams were stoked on the park this season, even though we had shit snow and their was a case of pbr, a 6er of lagunitas, a box of donuts, and a box of cookies when got to the shop at 8:30 9 am. Also not a big fan of everyone on parks but the main doucher guy I was bitching about was mainline. At least I don't have to work with him directly. Both grave shift so go out and come back around the same times. And I have to grab the book, turn into the sheet to the main grooming trailer, but other than that or epic chance encounters parked next to each other, I don't really have to see him.
Its been 5 weeks and my prescription glasses still haven't arrived. What the fuck, I was told 14 business days, not over 25. By the time I get them, the semester will be over!! I literally can't do my homework because I can't see.
"oh i didnt really think of that" should just be called an excuse for being a fucking idiot. my boss said that to me last night at work after bringing up a fair point. I basically had to go on a airport run to drop some people off and meet some lady for an unrelated guest because his kid left his medications in the condo they own. Basically, he put all the pill bottles in a brown paper bag and told me to just pull up to the airport, hand the bag off to the lady, and everything should be okay.
So yeah in the era of tons of terrorism still sorta post 9/11, its totally fine to waltz up to airports and handoff unmarked paper bags to people completely disregarding airport police/security, and the nature of our climate nowadays.
the homeowner knew that for sure and figured "oh hey, lets put the peasant workers asses on the line instead of mine." and that didn't cross anyones mind at all, not even my boss.
Bachelor parks are whack as fuck. The park crew doesn't even set the features so half of the skinny rails are either crooked or start to wobble, the jumps aren't consistent, and they only change a couple features every couple of weeks. I can't wait to go somewhere else that actually cares about their parks.
Fuck old people. I’m ripping this bathroom out of an apartment and I have to take a piss. There’s no public restroom at the place so what do I do? I go out the back door and piss in the grass. Some tenant saw me and got bothered by it and called my fucking supervisor over it. My supervisor wasn’t mad and told me from now on I have to piss in the laundry room sink. Fuck you random tenant I’m going to piss in your sink now because of you.
