Burning Man 2020

Romer

"Paul Romer won the economics Nobel last year, and went to Burning Man this year, and Emily Badger at the New York Times wrote a long and fascinating article about Romer’s insights into urban development and the trade-offs between central planning and free markets and how they are informed by the spontaneous-seeming city that springs up every year at Burning Man, and I kind of … could not get past how Romer keeps telling strangers about his Nobel?

Levi, who did not know whom he was talking to, mentioned to Mr. Romer that his hero was Daniel Kahneman, the 2002 winner of the Nobel in economic sciences.
“Well, I won the Nobel prize last year,” Mr. Romer said. “So Danny is a fellow laureate.”

I hope he does that when people mention Bob Dylan too. Also:

"One morning, a man who called himself Coyote, who was responsible for surveying the city’s streets, took Mr. Romer around. At the far edge of town, they found a roller coaster that looked likelier than most things at Burning Man to harm you. It was designed for one fool at a time, strapped into an oversized car seat that shot down one side of a 31-foot wooden U shape and up the other.

Mr. Romer, surprising himself, walked up to it.

“Should I do this?” he asked Coyote. “If you kill a Nobel Prize winner, it’s on you.”

When he goes to the supermarket back home is he like “if you sell expired milk to a Nobel Prize winner, it’s on you”? Or is this just a reaction to the weird social space of Burning Man?

Brown Eye, actually. DJ Flume eating ass onstage during a burn performance has become quite the story.

Eating some stinky porn star’s bung hole off grid takes some balls.

Sorry no pics from me I don’t take my phone/camera out all week. One of the awesome things about bartending at our morning bar is we mostly get people coming off their sunrise trips. This year plenty of pinkeye, fisting, and playa sex chaffing talk. I’m sure I’m not the first to coin the phrase “No lady likes alkali-vagin”

Your crew can get a pic taken at the Black Rock Yearbook, Thommy21. Cool place and thing to do.

**thommy21** · 09-07-2019, 05:53 PM

Yeah the GF and I stumbled upon the Yearbook crew a couple years back awesome folks and super fun. Didn’t do it this year but here’s our camp pic and another with some of our trippy friends out on playa.
