    I’ll play my smallest violin.

    Burning man was a cool concept 15years ago. Now its a trustifarian party for jetsetters in private jets to have ketamine fueled orgies. I could give a shit about burning man or any burners at this point.

      Yeah man I agree ketamine makes for boring orgies. Idk why these people insist on it. I’ll be like “okay let’s start washing off all the layers of sunscreen and dust” and the middle aged tech HR with two kids will be like “hold on I have to load my special ketamine bullet (that I purchased in Goa) with my veterinary K that I got from mexico” before doing half a line of coke to balance it out. Calvin Klein they call it

      “No worries if I k-hole” she said with a wink before passing the fuck out. Then the main orgy coordinator couldn’t get hard so he makes his wife wear a strap on. Eventually 18 different cops show up because one guy was smoking pot in the back of the circus tent

      Yeh I’ve said in other threads I went 25 years ago and 8 years ago. Big difference. Burners are lame IMO. I avoid them and they seem to want to latch on more…

    They’re also telling attendees to pee in the mud so the toilets don’t overflow since they can’t be emptied… may want to avoid the mud for a bit

      Reminiscent of Woodstock 99:

      The number of portable toilets installed proved insufficient for the number of attendees. The toilets and showers soon became unusable and overflowing, and male guests resorted to urinating on the side of the toilets or behind vendor stalls. Excrement from the toilets flowed into the mud pits and camping areas, mixing with water from the broken pipes. Many attendees began jumping into the mud pits and water troughs to stay cool in the heat, unaware of the contamination; this led to many cases of trench mouth and trench foot. The Oneida County Health Department analyzed the free drinking water, finding it to be contaminated with E. coli and other bacteria.

      Imagine paying thousands of dollars for this

        Still beats paying a quarter million to be killed in the violent implosion of a submersible pressure cooker.

          Not if you’re suicidal. Death by submarine implosion has got to be one of the best ways to go if you ask me.

            None of those died instantly. Imagine blinking your eyes, knowing that they’ll close, then open again. Only your eyes never open again, and you didn’t even notice!

            Edit: I must have been very tired when I wrote that first sentence. Of course they died instantly!

                Lol true! Not sure why I wrote that first sentence. I do remember being half asleep. Don’t post comments to Lemmy when tired, folks.

        everything is flooded - the pits are flooded - the only things not flooded are the portashitters. and they’re overflowing because the shit-sucking-transport can’t get to them due to all the flooding.

        On one of the news casts I watched. No one can drive in and out right now and that includes the trucks that empty the bathrooms which are quickly filling up

      Literally my first thought was wondering how much of that is excrement, considering their toilet situation.

    So many people just got viciously sick in that recent “Tough Mudder” event, turns out there’s a ton of nasties living in the mud that want to make their home in and on you.

    So that’s gonna be a permanent no from me, dawg.

    How much of that is mud and how much is human shit?

    Maybe they should practice some self-reliance in a harsh, unforgiving environment, you know, the original intent of this whole thing.

    Everyone’s got so much hate it’s weird, they’re probably mostly having a great time, helping each other out, making new friends and all that stuff.

    I know it’s not everyones cup of tea but that’s the great thing about life we all like different things, if we didn’t the one thing everyone likes would be super crowded.

    Not judging… looks more like mud wrestling than burning…. Maybe call it “Mud Man?” Just a thought?
