that was like one of my favorite movies when i was a kid :(


AND I ALWAYS WANTED TO LIVE IT OUT IN REAL LIFE.

elx Jan 24th, 2010 10:36 PM

i went on a reallllyyyyy creepy hike in the middle of nowhere during a storm, got lost and had to decide between going through thigh-high swampy disgustingness or a pitch black forest. the pictures turned out kinda boring and not very good but i wanted to share this one:



i didn't have time to take a good picture, because once i saw it i was pretty much running my ass out of there, but it was a deep foggy red and totally scary. does anyone know of anything other than the obvious that would have caused this? i don't think it was the obvious because it was pretty big and deep for a little pond thing.

Spoilers!

Sorry, I can't see what you see, try as I might. BTW why spoiler tag a muddy sneaker and a panoramic view of ... was that the swamp? I agree - it creeps me out, even in broad daylight - but hardly spoiler material.

What do you think you saw?

If you stare at it long enough you can see the face of God.

how dare you ruin your nice shoes your mother will have a fit

Tadao Jan 25th, 2010 12:44 AM

the red was most likely red clay.

kahljorn Jan 25th, 2010 12:45 AM

do you know how long your mother had to work to put those shoes on your feet?

it looked like a big creepy pool of dark blood in the middle of the forest during a storm not far from swampy disgustingness to me. i tried to convey that by showing just how disgusting this experience was, but i failed :(

Those shoes belong in the INAPPROPRIATE THREAD.

kahljorn Jan 25th, 2010 07:06 AM

I'm surprised that you're even scared of swamps, rain and forests considering your vast experience.

elx Jan 25th, 2010 07:12 AM

those shoes are awesome ok, i've had them for seven years

Zhukov Jan 25th, 2010 07:25 AM

They might look good, and feel comfortable, but how are they going to stop a snake bite, or a twisted ankle? Go and buy some ex military boots. It will make you feel tougher, too, so you wont be scared of spooky swamps anymore.

Also, do your feet not grow? Seven years?!

Zhukov Jan 25th, 2010 07:31 AM

On the subject of nature, I was attacked by a seagull today after work. I left the building, and while waving goodbye to some people it came swooping down at me squawking. I ducked and swore and people laughed, then it came at me again flapping it's wings, and I ran. I felt like a numpty, and people were laughing at me, but then it swooped at me for a third time and I had to hide behind a car, checking the sky for my attacker. I saw the coast was clear, so I ran doubled over to get to the cover of the bus stop.


I guess it thought I was in it's territory, or was going to take it's food or something like that.

kahljorn Jan 25th, 2010 08:09 AM

maybe it thought you were a seagull cause you were flapping your arms around waving good bye :O

Zhukov Jan 25th, 2010 08:25 AM

Hmmm, that sounds like a reasonable explanation.

kahljorn Jan 25th, 2010 08:28 AM

the secret to seagulls is to punch them

Babs Jan 25th, 2010 08:51 AM

I was walking around the other day and couldn't help myself but marvel at the beauty of the world around me. Every corner had a nice surprise for me and for my wondering curious mind. Talking simply won't do it justice so let these pictures fill in a thousand words in your ill informed, unbeautified minds.


WARNING! The following picture makes the Grand Canyon look like a welfare check.

Spoilers!

A lot of reddish swampwater comes from tannin, from decaying leaves.:themoreyouknow

Tadao Jan 25th, 2010 11:46 AM

RED CLAY I TELL YOU

kahljorn Jan 25th, 2010 11:48 AM

guys i think that elx would already know all of these things

Aaarg Jan 29th, 2010 10:47 AM

Nothing worthwhile, but the clouds this morning looked pretty neat:



Terra Jan 29th, 2010 07:37 PM

Dude, what happened to your house?

Babs Jan 30th, 2010 04:48 AM

His roof was on fire and he didn't need no fucking water.

Aaarg Jan 30th, 2010 08:52 AM

That's not just the roof! The entire interior is black and destroyed.

He wasn't home and he lives alone with no pets. He was out drinking when a space heater sparked and took the whole house down. He was drunk when he got a call that his 60 years of possessions were being reduced to ash.
