I also know that along the line, maybe it'll perish by someone else, but at least the death isn't in my hands. I know that I did the right thing.
you're an idiot -

You're too soft. You'll have a panic attack. probably get bit by a deadly snake and think to yourself "WTF was I thinking" with the closest person miles from you.
unless you mean literally in your own back yard. -

Hahahaha, that's cute that you know me so well. True, true... -
2018-08-24 at 1:41 PM UTCThe only real way to camp for long periods isn't to bring more kit.
It's to change your body.
You need to stop showering every evening. You need to stop relying on 3 carb heavy meals a day. You need to become more muscular, less fat. You need to stop worrying about entertainment/distraction every second of every day. You need to become lighter, hardier, smarter. You need to brown up a little, so the sun doesn't burn you. You need to learn to adopt a diet that doesn't rot your teeth.
You need to learn to sleep with nothing more than a light cotton blanket over you. You need to learn to get up early, to catch the abundant food available in early morning. You need to harden your hands, so you no longer get blisters from a walking stick. You need to harden your feet (for instance with methylated spirits) so you no longer get blisters on your feet.
You need to become accustomed to the cold. You need to use your sense of smell to sense game in the forest. You need to become accustomed to going a day or more without food. You need to become accustomed to going a day or more without water.
You need to learn how to sense a spring, and dig for it. You need to be able to taste the poison in the local bushes. You need to be able to boil water without having a pot. You need to be able to kill and skin an animal, and choose the most valuable organs for your own. You need to go without coffee, tea, nicotine, or any of the other pleasures of civilisation. You need to force your intestines to sense and to harden up against the protozoans that inhabit many rivers.
You need to acquire a sense of place, and a sense of space. You need to be able to know north, south, east, west, instinctively. You need to know the land. You need to settle into nature, and not be bothered by those harmless bugs or animals that aren't worth killing and eating.
You need to have boundless energy. Even if you do not eat, you need to be alert at all times. You must not sleep fully, ever. You must be eternally vigilant.
You need to become a tool of survival. You need to be harder and more valuable than steel. If you cannot do this you deserve to be dead. -

Nothing about needing to get used to wiping your ass with leaves and brush? -

Not Soy-boy. That's too salutary.
More like bread-boy. You get off on eating those empty white carbs.
"for energy" of course.
If you don't have them you feel ill, like you have aids or something.
Bread-aids. -

The only carbs I get are from fruit and vegetables. I once went two weeks without any carbs at all, but had to stop that due to heart palpitations. -
2018-08-24 at 2:02 PM UTCI've been on a extreme low carb diet for a year...no bread, no potatoes, no beer, no rice..none of that shit...not much fruit either really. meat green veg and cheese primarily...maybe 20-40g of carbs a day at most.
I only shit once or twice a week as a result and then they are nothing to write home about. I figure my body is pretty much using up everything I put in it. When I do go camping later in the year I expect I'll not be shitting in the woods much. -

Not to be a dick but aren't you, by your own description, a fat depressed tech worker of some sort that doesn't leave the house (not that there's anything wrong with that)? -

Originally posted by apt About 2 months. I was much harder and in far better shape then. Just got back from a 2 week long camping trip and found it more difficult than I should have.

Won't matter.. NASA is leaking out that a hoard of very large space rocks are showing up in larger numbers than seen before. one the size of the great Egyptian pyramid just swung by us by a million miles. something like 1 hour later and it would of hit somewhere in Canada.
This happened during Obama's admin.. people didn't know this but Obama was taken to the Arctic for a few days with his family. to the frozen depot where they store seeds and shit in case this happens.
No lie.
