Random Unthreadworthy Questions

[Buster Highmen]

To sort of link ötzi’s and Buster’s thoughts, I’ve been wondering if Filson’s stuff is still good. I heard they got bought out by a PE outfit, and things seem to go to shit when that happens.

That came to mind because Filson’s burly wool britches used to be the bomb. A lot of their stuff was awesome back in the day. I was thinking of buying myself a tin cloth jacket for Xmas.

The're expensive fer shure.

My old woolrichs have lasted 35 years; those things could stand up on their own for years.

I used to get wool pants at army surplus stores. Are those a thing any more?

All the ones I knew are gone, along with the good junk stores. Each are rare now. I think they slid down the financial gradient and broke apart.

The idea that any questions are unthreadworthy seems out of touch with the gestalt of this place.

But thank you for setting a good example.

I guess.

Filson jac-shirt is the shit
(but that’s the only item I own of theirs)

Fuk, look at the neck & jawline on that slab of a man — i need these wool bibs so I can be this manly

Bill Cowher's son? Probably boxed his way out of his mom with that mustache.

All you need is the hat. I think he has a saggy chain though, so beware.

That's why I jumped on it!

No shit
It’s the only way to take attention away from that awful hat

McDonalds Sausage McMuffin >Wendy’s Sausage breakfast sandwich>Burger King Sausage Croissant

Change my mind.

Edit.

And while I’m at it, Burger King hash rounds>Wendy’s seasoned potatoes>McDonalds hash browns

Change my mind. (This one you can, the ratings are much closer.)

I have some woolrich pants (I think?) if you want them. Probably a 34" waist. I'd have to pull them out but they are too warm for me.

I'd be interested if no one else is.

Wool pants...So hot right now

Wool pants...So itchy right now

FIFY...

Me too. I've looked for those old cheap woolies, which were a great value, but can't really find them anymore. Looked at Filson and a bunch of others, and finally decided wool weighs too much and I don't like hiking miles elk hunting with that weight on my legs anymore. Replaced them with Eddie Bauer fleece lined pants I got at Costco. Great cold weather hunting pants. Warm and quiet, and good pockets.

Me three. My mom made me a set of knickers out of surplus wool pants. Heavy compared to 3l goretex bibs, and Itchy as fuck, but fine with long Johns underneath.

Double layer knees, wool socks, danger-high-voltage colored sweater, glacier glasses, I was one stylin’ 12yo at Timberline Lodge. That’s before there was a Mt Hood Meadows.

Anyway
All that wool stuff we remember was extra from WWII & Korea. Now soldiers use space-age fabrics and insulation that DoD buys from various commercial manufacturers.

ETA - I just made a fucking potent batch of brownies.

For a while McDonald's (in our area, at least) had sausage gravy biscuits that were really good. Like delicious. They got rid of them. Why?

Does this thread foretell the end of DigitalDeath?

'Delicious' sounds off-brand for McDonalds, so they probably had to nix it.

I do like the sausage egg McMuffin though, it's actually a nice energy boost before biking / skiing.

(Don't @ me dantheman)

[ötzi]

I'll do a sausage mcmuffin in a pinch. I think I went in to get one hung over as fuck and they had sausage gravy biscuits and I figured what the hell and it cured me while being delicious. I was instantly a fan. Yet they are gone.

I have two kids in daycare that are sub-kindergarten, which is like putting a kid through college at today’s rates. Will I ever get to spend this money on something else or will other kid related things eat it right up once they are in school?

You may get some wool pants. If you are lucky.
