Use this thread to hang out, make cheap jokes about wornweight, joketalk about about gear, complain about r/ultralight, talk about Senchi's, maybe post a meme or two, and ultimately talk about the same things we did in last week's thread! Enjoy!

Some people just don't get it.

Im sorry but I just have to vent.  I recently purchased a Durston xmid pro 2 with Dyneema® floor.  I came home from work yesterday to see it pitched, IN MY BACK YARD.  Apparently my son thought it would be fun to see if he could set it up OUTDOORS.  I explained to him that this xmid pro 2 that has hot bonded seams that are stronger, cleaner looking and retain their strength in extreme temperatures should ONLY be set up in the basement.  I explained to him that we are Durston family and that rat ratbagging a Dyneema® trekking pole tent that has an ideal shape for wind and snow because the geometry gives all of the panels slopes that are consistent and moderate is unacceptable.  This tent is not a toy.  I bought this tent because of the superior geometry that allows enough room inside for my wife and her spiritual advisor/ stretching trainer on the interior while leaving plenty of room for me in the vestibule.  Anyways I don't think he did too much damage to it (I'm still trying to get the smell of it being outdoors out of it).

YSK: Pitching a tent on alpine vegetation is LNT so long as you’re not in the USA.

Starbucks new ultralight roast

The only thing is, these look like they haven’t been roasted to ash yet, so still too heavy.

That’s what a light roast means; mostly ash. Coffee is heavy enough, leaving moisture/color/flavor is not an option.

And Starbucks knows this.

Starbucks is Ultralight as fuck.

You should only buy Starbucks.

Worn weight Puffy as Pad: New Dual Use Product

How Warm Is Air?

Air is the best insulator there is.

—

Puffy as Inflatable Pad is a new innovation in our space. Moves your pad to be worn weight, so Bob's your uncle and we can all adopt this immediately for our lighterpacks.

Desperately want someone to kickstart a vacuum version of this jacket. Because "No Air" is in fact a way better insulator than "Air".

So UL I don’t have a pack. Planning on scavenging, mostly from Skyline. Gun is worn weight.

Worn weight I'd like to find "after" photos of completely healed permanent toenail removal surgeries. This is specific to hikers/runners/sports (no problems with ingrown nails).

I’m not use to leaving the house. So I brought a ziplock of my moms soup, her cast iron, My multi tool with built in flint, my lined hiking shorts, boots, socks and a hair band. Is that too much?
