Some of you know this already: I’m a technophile. I loves me some little gadgets and whozits and doo-hickeys. You know what’s almost useless when you go camping?
All of those.
Well, most. You can take a DS and be entertained, but my cell phone? DEAD to me. No reception = no internet = NO CONNECTION TO SOCIETY = me going crazy. When someone tells me that the area is “off the grid” I don’t take that at face value. I assume they just mean that the reception is just a little shoddy. Not true; reception is about as common as a power outlet. OH GOD BUT WHAT IF SOMEONE POSTS A FUNNY ON MY FACEBOOK!? WHAT CRAZY ANTICS WILL LI-LO GET INTO THAT’LL I’LL MISS?! I even began to miss the Farmville updates.
That last sentence is a complete and total lie. It’s actually the BEST reason to go camping.
HEY LET’S DO ANOTHER CONTEST! Simple enough: comment below with something you HAVE to have with you when you go camping. Winner gets a high quality comic print of their choice! Winner is random. Thanks guys!
Bandanna for my head. Not entirely sure why, but if I ever forgot it I think I’d freak out…like, a lot.
.Gotta have my wide brim Aussie hat! Its got a couple of long feathers for flair
The only time I go camping is for medieval recreation type events. In which case, a must will always be my favourite stein. And a bottle of mead to fill it. Or many bottles. Sometimes I forget the stein…
S’more flavored pop tarts and cute undies to walk in while hiking… Nothing sexier then seeing a man walking in the woods in only 2xist.
Feather Boa, platform heels….wait…wrong kind of Camp. Nevermind.
Condoms!!
Coffee percolator, Leatherman multitool, machete.
And mosquito repellant.
I always have to bring my hunting knife, and my mp3. And my mental collection of smut
And I approve of the fun activities Will plans for
Thank you Stu for not doing a comic based off of a lame penis/ass joke. <3
A queen sized bed. I’ll work out the tent situation afterwards.
I always bring a good book. Backpacking all day, and then sitting down by the fire with Tolkine or Camus in the evening; that’s my idea of a weekend well-spent.
A hot male friend! That way even if you forget everything else (even your clothes) you still can have lots of fun.
Dry socks, always dry socks. Traditional, scout-like, but completely necessary. Oh, and undies, going freeballing isn’t very much fun.
A torch… things can go badly otherwise xD
Chainsaw, machete and shotgun. Always be prepared for the Zombie Apocalypse!
Vodka!! Or tequila… wine? Really, anything with alcohol in it. I once had to settle for Listerine.
Meat. Man or cow. Doesn’t matter.
My fav plushie! And yes, I’m very much old enough to be on this site =P
A map.
Because regardless of how much I tell everyone about how much of a “natural” I am at finding my way in the wild I certainly need a backup plan.
chris… i have this urge to meet you. lol.
if i’m ever in the area, coffee is on me. lol
you have me on FB
Music or books. The silence in the woods is DEAFENING. It crosses from being normally quiet in my imagination to every twig is HOLY SHIT ITS A MONSTER GOTTA RUN NOW
Knife and wool tights. A warm friend is also welcome.
And please keep doing the lovely penis/ass jokes. Preferably in combination. <3
Oh…. I totally forgot to read the text.
I would bring Michael Score from Flock of Seagulls.
A tent
the Self-pitching
in my pants
World War Z.
Beer. Lots and lots of beer.
Rope. So many uses.
I got scary good at nooses when I went camping with school…
Hangers.
For my clothes.
When I’m not wearing them.
Toilet paper. You’ll only forget it once.
Books and something to make coffee of some sort with…that and something to cuddle with…
At least one 500+ page book for every 3 days of the trip.
as nerdy/emo as it may be, it would have to be my iPod.
can’t go anywhere without it.
Faux fur clothing, so all the little woodland creatures will know I fucking mean business…without actually having to mean business.
A bodyguard
Bottle of Jack, Bacardi, tons of beer, and a group of your close friends!
