So.....

I am leaving early in the morning for a carnival cruise out of Charleston .
Yay for me! Anyhow, this is my fifth or sixth cruise and it is with family. Can you tell I am not super excited, to say the least.

Anyhow, not having access to NC4x4 for 5 days has me wondering, how in the hell am I supposed to waste my time all day?

So I was thinking, maybe y'all could use this post to let me know all the exciting things I have missed this week, so catching up wont take so long when I get back.......

And I do know you are never supposed to announce on a public board that you are going out of town. But I dont have shit that's worth stealing so :fuck-you:
 
wait 5 days on a cruise w/ family, and no internet to retreat to?
That sounds terrible.
Is this by choice?
 
When the going gets cold, leave and go on a cruise... :flipoff2:

(Just kidding, I'm jealous. I was up at SugarTop this afternoon - you wanna talk about windchill? SHEESH! I met you on 105 in Foscoe on my way back.)
 
Ratlab writes out a long post with some stuff that sounds smart. I write some self indulgent asshole post. Ron writes something with wisdom from his perspective. Shawn disagrees with someone so they’re both not wrong. Jeepinmatt suggests someone’s house be burned down. CasterTroy will make a funny. Paul will rep the III%. If there’s a Fuller sighting, expect 17 pages the first half will be bashing, then a few of white knighting that will conclude with reasoning, compassion and a wish of luck. All other threads, After two pages the original topic will probably be derailed and the fun really starts when the straw men, red herring and ad hominem come to play. Pretty sure that sums up about every NC4x4 thread ever.
 
In a way, yes .

Our family decided to go on a cruise this year instead of buying each other xmas gifts.

It sounded good, not having to buy gifts for people that they wouldnt want........

This made me chuckle....

So true, and I guess I could have just written this out myself, and known what happens in the next week.
 
After thinking for a while, this would be my prediction of what will happen on NC4X4 this coming week.....

1. @Jody Treadway will post a picture of a perfect gear pattern that took him 15 seconds to set up. I could make it look 1/5th as good in 17 hours.....

2. Mr. Fuller will ask advice about a new employment opportunity, only to be met with open criticism.

3. @jeepinmatt will think about burning someone's house down, but not post the reply because that's the standard expected response.

4. Someone will ask financial advice for an expected tax refund, only I wont be here to give the routine "hookers and blow " comment.

5. None of the "regulars" will post on this thread because I have at some point pissed them off in the past.

6. The poop knife thread will be resurrected, and I will be sad when I miss the chance to post something a 5 year old would find funny.
 
Fake news

I'm a hack
 
@ #5.... Not sure I'm a regular but you're going to have to try harder if you plan to piss me off. When I turned 40 I unloaded a ton of fucks and tossed them.

However, have fun on your trip. I hope it doesn't turn out like most with 90% of the people getting a stomach virus or falling overboard :flipoff2:
 
Be careful on your trip. NC4x4 members have a well established history of being in boating accidents...

As long as he doesn't take his ENTIRE Cache of questionable NFA items and thousands and thousands of rounds of ammo, he should be fine.

Cant' say for sure his house won't be burned down when he comes home...but he should have an uneventful boating trip

Wait and see what the Vietnamese cabin attendants make you out of a towel each day
Determine the % of morbidly obese cruisers vs less morbidly obese
Try to crap comfortably on the elevated crapper
Eat junk food at 2am

The list goes on...

I reckon Im a regular at this point... and I give very few fucks and mucho bourbono has killed many brain cells but I dont ever remember having a cross word with ya.

Have fun.

My wife loves cruises, Im indifferent.
I do, however, have one super neat hidden gem trick. Most Charleston cruises stop in Freeport. Freeport at the dock is a shit hole of greedy locals selling unpackaged shit thy bought at target and claiming to have made it.
It once had one of the top nature perserves and zoos in the world until being destroyed in the early 00s by a hurricane.

If you stop in Freeport. Rent a car from the rental place beside the ship. It is a US territory so cell works and is free just like US. Set google maps to Banana Bay Cafe. Its about a 15 minute drive. The route there takes you through the old abandoned zoo. Its fascinating driving through these tropical gardnes that are unmaintained. Lots of native plant and wildlife to look at...and some VERY mild offroading if you opt for the "jeep" rental. Banana Bay Caafe is not a tourist spot it is a local watering hole. They have a wooden deck with plastic wal mart chairs, cheap rum and island beer. And the most beautiful scenery Ive ever laid eyes on. Just a perfect beach. Lunch will cost you about Zaxbys equivalent and will be good...not remarkable. The baby iguanas will climb up on the table the toucans will land on the deck rail. Its badass.


Almost forgot a level 2 pro tip. The rental cars are a racket. They have a note in the rental agreement that if hubcaps are lost they charge you like $50/each...otherwise the rental cars are super cheap. Like $30/day unlimited mileage. Before you get out of the port complex, stop and yank the hubcaps off and throw them in the trunk. They rig them by breaking the retainer tabs off and zip tie them on but cut the zip ties partially. In town there is a hardware store that sells bags of zip ties for normal american rates. When you get back to port and they guy checks out the car, watch his face drop as he realizes all hubcaps are still there.


If your ship doesnt stop at Freeport F-You for making me type this book, now Im pissed at you.

@jeepinmatt @CasterTroy this is the 3rd reference to this boating incident, I expect to hear this story in Windrock!

I intend to produce pictures of the Penske Truck crashed into the hotel story.
Also there is a follow-up story to the rest of that night at Shane’s...
 
All I'm saying is...my prognostication skills are on point. It's like I'm the Tony Romo of social media (For those that don't know who that is, feeble Cowboys QB turned commentator. Significance is, the Journal did a piece on him for 68% accuracy on predicted plays from the booth this season).
