Dear Brothers, it seems we've temporarily relocated to Triggertowm. That's ok. Take some deep breaths and center yourselves and see if that feels better.
Dude. I'm serious. It really does look you're having a blast. Good for you.

What I now ask of you, is to consider what it is inside yourselves that keeps you from doing the same?
a) I get frostbite when I open the fridge.
b) I have a court case coming up after my psychiatric evaluation for going to the supermarket wearing nothing but Lundhags Guide Expedition BC boots.
c) I am in a long-term committed relationship with someone sane
d) You would literally die if you did this in Troms og Finnmark.

I was referring to saying "Right On, Brother!", like Wim would do, and it was directed at whoever it was that asked me if I know what Wim Hof is about.

Again, take a deep breath, and find the Stoke. The ego often feels the need to make jokes about things it doesn't immediately understand. Instead, what if you let all other things fall aside, and just focused on the pure ski stoke aspect of it. How does that change thinga? Let it be pure.

Not real sure about this Wim Hof character:

"In 2008 he was urgently hospitalized because he sat on a public fountain in Amsterdam and ruptured his rectum, resulting in an injury that almost caused his death." -Wikipedia

You are right! Try that; work on your ego... yours seems kind of, euh, inflated...

OK. Trying that now.





Took a deep breath, I'm still really concerned about your nips.

hmm. looks like a duck, walks like a duck.. can you say "quack"!? "Marken Lichtenbelt, one of the scientists who studied Hof, stated that "[Hof's] scientific vocabulary is galimatias. With conviction, he mixes in a non-sensical way scientific terms as irrefutable evidence.""

Swivelling down groomers naked on a pair of Gammes gets two unironic thumbs up from me. He looks like he's having a whale of a time. Good for him.

Oh man!

I dig this guy. He's out doing some skiing and posting it. I love it. It's not for me but at the same time, it's for me.

We are all a bunch of freeheel weirdos anyway, I embrace the weirdos compared to my own weirdo-ness!

I certainly admire the messaging.

and I'm serious, M F PIMP is like, serious life goal now.

I bet if we take some of your soft muskie ass hairs and pad them into some duct tape (visualize a bandaid-like device), and place those over your nips, you'll be good to go shred at all temps. I bet this is the way while you build a suitably hardy constitution for ripping like a M F PIMP
