If you could freeze solid mid-poo poo, that would be pretty cool.

you can actually inflate your scrote pretty safely with sterile saline, syringes, needles, and aseptic technique. its a niche kink iirc

the saline just slowly gets absorbed into your blood but in the meantime you got a big round smooth distended nutsack

Thread, I had an Everest dream. I invited my friend to climb Everest with me, then a whole bunch of other people showed up. Then I felt embarrassed because none of us had experience and we were all going to die. I tried telling everyone that but they talked over me and nobody listened. Plus I was equivocating needlessly by admitting that the fatality rate was only five percent. So everybody but two of us went outside and rolled off a cliff to their deaths.

That's all, thanks for reading. :downs:

I thought part of why such big teams of sherpas were needed is that it was all mountain trails, goat paths and poo poo. there's a dirt road all the way there?

Base camp on the Chinese side by the looks of it? Give it another few years and the Chinese'll have extended the high speed rail to Everest. Then the feast will come :unsmigghh:

Nothing makes me more in awe of the eight thousanders than realizing the unremarkable foothills in that area are taller than any mountain I have ever seen in the US or southern Afghanistan.

They remind me of the alps but when I see no trees whatsoever even at the bottom of the valley I get a little antsy.

Pics look amazing Elwood! I'm just finishing up the Annapurna Circuit now. I made it through Thorung La pass without dying but it was loving cold that's for sure.

They won't be of Everest but I can post pictures of the Annapurna region here once I'm back home and have sorted through them if there is an interest for them?

I can't recommend the circuit enough, it's just unbelievable all the way through.

Crop off the left so the person in red is alone and centered, and you've got art right here. Or don't, because it's still breathtaking.

Dude definitely do the Annapurna Circuit when you can, it's just unreal. I'm back in civilization now in Pokhara after the most gruelling 10 hours on a local bus.

I'm back home at the end of the week and will post some highlights of the trip soon after that. It's cliche to say but pictures won't really do it justice but I'll do my best to get across just how un-loving-believeable the himalayas really are.
