*golf clap* for you. Well said.

Serious question, since this has already been brought up in this article a few times. Do you believe it is hypocritical to own a used kayak in this case? Or to rent one?

Right, they should probably just toss them on a landfill instead of use them.

Great article Wes. I have mixed feelings on trophy hunting, but you lay out the argument very well. I also appreciate you pointing out the hypocrisy of how our society is perfectly fine with wide-scale factory farming, but gets outraged when one lion dies. I guarantee at least half of the people who are outraged about…

The Baxter rangers really come off like @$$holes in this whole situation. A little bit of champagne on the ground is littering? Seriously? This is what happens when a bunch of dull tools have a little power and nothing to do with it.

The Joshua Trees in Joshua Tree NP are a joke anyway. You want to see real, healthy, full Joshua Trees? Drive an hour up to Mojave Preserve, where they are abundant. Or don’t and forget I said anything.

Don’t laugh... moose bites can be very nastii

Substandard? I adore that movie. Great dialogue, solid characters, good twists, and approaching space exploration sans cheesy alien costumes = A+

That’s basically what I came here to say. Please don’t point a bunch of obnoxious people to the Olympics. Having Twilight set in Forks was bad enough.

Scarcely. There are parts of Death Valley that are extremely remote and stone cold silent.

That GIF is perfect. I love how it makes it look like Escobar is having a ‘50 Cent first pitch’ moment and spiking the ball on the ground for Infante to pick up and toss back. Rinse, repeat.

I work in digital marketing and this is just... the logic and math is unbelievably fuzzy here. No one I know would try to put the numbers together like this. I would be fired if I ever submitted a report with logic this terrible.

Fine by me. I’ll eat all your cantaloupe.

Ugh, the texture of gristle is repulsive. Didn’t think of that one, but it is definitely on my list.

I’m in the “hate” cilantro camp - it just overwhelms everything, but I’m 100% with you on the vinegar and olives. The smell alone never fails to make me feel like puking.

I used to put ketchup on mac & cheese - especially once the mac had gone a little cold. Its pretty good, but then I realized BBQ sauce on cold mac is heaven.

I like mayo simply because I cannot stand dry sandwiches. Mayo is a nice sandwich lubricant because it doesn’t taste too strongly or conflict with other flavors like ketchup and mustard do. It is just there to moisten the whole ensemble.

What? Apricots are amazing. (well, fresh, not dried so much). A little tart, a little sweet, not messy like peaches. I’ll eat all your apricots. That’s one of the few fruits I actually enjoy canned too.

“An entire cucumber, I eat it like a banana.”

You had me with this whole bacon + green beans thing, but then you blew it by using frozen green beans. I totally get why some people don’t like green beans, but I swear it is only because they’ve only tried them frozen or canned (ewww). Fresh green beans, otoh, are amazeballs.
