SHEMS is a thing. I'm glad it finally has a name.

See @kelly.jayp it was never my fault! No need to BLAME G2!

It's a legit medical condition just like the AIDS that @EricS has or @huck72412 and his syphilis. Pretty sure @denots finally got that gonorrhea under control too.

This is a great day for saddle hunters!

I’m not losing weight because of aids. I say Keto but the truth is I spent all my lunch money on saddle gear.

The prussik knot is the number 1 ropeman salesperson. I hear tethrd puts prussiks on their ropes so that @Erniepower can buy out the entire world supply of Ropeman 1s, knowing he has a surefire market.

Don't let him fool you with tales of rodents in the freezer...the real reason for @Nutterbuster's name is his secret plan, along with @DanO to completely bust your wallet because you absolutely need a squirrel-themed $200 ROS and a $40/step way up the tree.

And speaking of @DanO - thanks for keeping the price of Kong keychains reasonable, and not jacking them up like folks on amazon. As a known symptom of SHEMS, i saw them go in-stock in real time. I'll probably pay the price for not ordering immediately while debating how many more squirrelsteps to buy.

The only real question is - how long before I cave and go oplux, and why is Rope so tempting? Anyone want some predator, or tethrd ropes, or htp...?

Well my SHEMS continues- I just went on Tethrd and got a HYS strap (even though I just got some daisy chain webbing) and I had to get the newer recliner (old one clearly had to be replaced since there was a newer one and I have no sewing machine!)

I'm new to the community. This will be my first season hunting out of it. The other day I was working on changing my girls crib to a bed and scratched the paint a little (you should've seen the angle i had to wedge this Allen wrench in) and my wife said can you be careful and act like you're working on something you care about. Curiously I asked like what? She like said your all your saddle stuff. Hahaha. Really hit me in the nuts. So put me down for a platinum membership to the SHEMS recovery club. I haven't gotten "creative" enough like you others yet to really dig in. Still figuring out I really dont know what I'm doing, but mentally tinkering nonetheless. I even thought about putting an old sewing machine down for christmas ideas.

Text message from my wife today: "I just went to the post office - post office woman asked if we would be interested in a larger PO box due to increased volume of packages in last 60 days."

Me: "I am pretty much done ordering, got what I need".

Wife: "You said that a month ago."

Ok I am definitely done buying saddle stuff . I do love my Predator pack from Tethrd I just bought but I promise I am done buying stuff. That's what I told my wife I don't think she believes me.

I have my purchases sent to my place of employment and erase all email notifications of said items as soon as I can. Am I in denial or only practicing self preservation?
