RE: Campsite Cleanup #23: S-Tree Campground, KY, Where I Cleaned Up My Final Campsite Of 2021 And Didn't Find Anything Interesting

Did you score that sweet length of rope?

I didn't keep it because I have plenty of rope already, but I did cut it down out of that poor tree.

Best of luck fending off the crazy people. Have you considered just killing them?

I should have known you'd be all set for rope. Excellent for rescuing the tree! There are now all these dead trees being cast on the sidewalk for garbage collection. I thought of the scarred trees as I walked by them today.

I find killing to be an excessive amount of time, trouble, work and well, consequences I don't want. I have a three step rule.

  1. The look
    This is highly effective for reasons I can't publicly say and usually addresses any issues.

  2. One or two sentences reinforced with "the look" and an extra hard punch of a non-physical nature.

  3. Showing one of my "presents" I keep handy for problems. Everyone likes presents, right?

It is extremely rare for any situation to escalate to number three.

Tell me more about your guns.

I'm in Canada, eh. We aren't allowed to have many of those things, all highly restricted also. I've never owned a gun.

My presents are special custom crafted ones 😉

You could always just 3D print a gun. Nice and untraceable that way.

You carved them yourself didn't you.

We're not allowed to do that in Canada. Even tools are a problem, based on my reading of the criminal code.

You carved them yourself didn't you.

Sort of, if you consider filing and sealing from rust, grouping of items on an, um, extend-a-thing, oiling up mechanisms for smooth extension, yes, yes indeed. Did you know carving tools are great presents to give, but for some reason, an old partner never wanted to buy them for me. I'm wondering if it was the blade aspect or the mallet aspect, or just all tools. Never really found out.
