The No-Shame Thread

With all the money spent on ways to get up a tree I figured out in the last week that with a few ropes I can get up in a tree to hunting height pretty easily and cheap. 2TC is what I'll be doing most likely in 2022. Haven't one stick yet which I will try at one of the PA meet up's and I hope I hate it! Maybe I won't even try it. Save me the hassle. I am ashamed I didn't try 2TC sooner

I'm convinced this is the main reason why everybody doesn't climb with two tethers!

No shame, I like watching Bluey with the kids. there, I said it!

I also think I like climbing trees more than actually killing deer. Maybe its the climbing, maybe its being a gear junkie, who knows.

Hate to say but same here! At least you’re guaranteed to climb at tree whenever you want to when you go out to hunt. I am likely a hear junky too but trying to become a recovering gear junky moving forward.

And Bluey is a good show with a lot of funny parts and a surprising number of adult references stuck in there.

My dude .you said it all
 
I posted the thread is one sticking just a fad last year for this very reason.i started with steps a decade ago and couldn't be leave people would Cary sticks.then soon realized alot Of guys where switching from stands to saddles and sticks where their norm.but eventually the same thought process that leads you to one stick and ditch 2 or 3 sticks would lead to ditching all sticks and then 2 tether naturally .I'm proud of my pimped out steps .but they seem like dead weight now
 
Bippity bumpity.

My wife bought me my first ever Starbucks drink for my birthday. Strawberry Acai Tea is delicious and I try to have it once every week or two now.

I've finally realized that milk/creamer/sweetener in coffee is nice. I've never seen such disapproval in my father's eyes before. Our post hunt waffle house visits may never be the same.

Despite years of calling out ba$$holes for their glitter-rocket boats, I'm seriously considering buying one so I can have carpet under my toesies and a soft cushion for my fanny.
 
LOL Sorry no judgment.
I told a guy that works with me .. when he was putting stuff in his coffee, I stop doing that when I was 8 years old.

I’ll never shame someone for drinking coffee no matter how fru fruy it is. It’s supports the industry. I had my first nitro infused cold frappe this year and I liked it. I kinda felt like I needed to go buy some skinny jeans though.

My dad literally grew up growing both coffee and sugarcane, roasting coffee beans and boiling sugarcane juice to brown sugar, to make them light enough to carry to market on a mule. He puts brown sugar and cream in his coffee. I think you're good. Seriously, try brown sugar or molasses in your coffee sometime. It adds a depth that I like.

The no-shame part... I'm dragging my feet on paper tuning. I meant to be done a month ago but I'm yet to actually hang paper. IDK why.

Oh there’s judgement alright - maybe not by you, but by the silent majority in this 19,000 member forum that’s so slack-jawed at the 800+ posts of confessions that they honestly don’t know what to say!

Sir, this is no-shame zone.

You keep telling yourself that, NB … for a guy concerned about social issues, the environment, and his personal role in the natural order of the universe, look at the wasteland you started! :laughing:
