We already stole our god given right from the natives.

Lol, busted

I’ll be sleeping out in it tonight in my canvas tent.

Locals tip: Absolutely make sure you use the bathroom at the base lodge while you are there. Trust me on this one.

I miss it terribly, but due to many injuries, my ski bum days are over. Now I kayak/ice fish instead, and I'm much more upset about the lack of lake ice this winter. I work per diem as a snow shoveler and I haven't had to do it yet this year, so that's been nice. This storm will be the wet snow that sucks to shovel.

I grew up close enough to Snowbasin to see the lift towers from my back yard. My buddy and I used to hike up there every Saturday and ski the Strawberry side for free. They didn't check tickets over on that side because you had to ride a lift to get there. Tickets were only about $15 back then, so we would recycle cans and secretly save lunch money to occasionally buy a ticket and ski the rest of the mountain. Easily the most underrated resort out there.

So does everywhere else. Nothing beats Utah snow quality. They’re having a banner year too.

As a born and raised Utahn, this makes me laugh. I think I’ll go camping.

Swamp Yankees have layers

I’m from Utah and it was big news out there.

Don’t threaten me with a good time

I lived in Vermont for five years and never had a single issue with GMP. Imagine that.

Especially on the Vermont sub.

How about a little fire, Scarecrow?

Pretty much how I feel when I go there. I think to myself "If I worked here, I'd be the best cutter in the shop" but then the thought of listening to those fucking animatronic songs for eight hours straight makes me want to kill myself.

Their seafood can be good (always lots of dead mussels and clams not culled though), but they are cutting the same meat that comes from the same packing plants as every other grocery store, and their cutting isn't particularly good in my experience. It's nothing special. They just run a lot of fancy premium steaks at attractive loss-leader pricing to get you in the store, so it makes it look like their meat department is better than it is.

Source: Former meat cutter and fish monger who shops at the Danbury Stew's a lot. I'm never that impressed when I shop their meat department.

Stew Leonard's is a store that lives and dies by it's loss leaders. Go get the loss leader (usually a premium steak cut or something), then buy everything else at the regular grocery store. Their pantry items and everything else that isn't a loss leader is going to cost far more per unit than at the regular grocery store, and there's usually no selection. Every grocery store does this, but Stews does this to the extreme.

Stew's baked goods are legit though and worth going for by themselves.

Shit, in NY I've seen the state troopers fake a roadside breakdown with a shitty old truck, hood up, and the spotter inside. At the next freeway entrance, they a bunch of patrol cars waiting to pull people over. I've also seen them do this with the spotter parked on an overpass, or tucked way back into the trees (with green cars).

Vermont could never afford such shenanigans.

You new to Vermont? There are laws that are normal and obvious everywhere else that Vermont just doesn’t have for some reason. It’s a theme.

Vermont tends to just not have some obvious laws that other places do.

Quality pizza in VT will just turn the place into CT!

You're harassing me with this completely optional content that I'm choosing to consume! How dare you!

It must be tiresome to make yourself feel so helpless all the time.

Welp, looks like they got banned.
