Are you walking back from Chicago??

From:

xp_darcy

Lmao no we're mostly in the RV with Kevin but sometimes we switch out to one of the cars for a while.

From:

xp_daredevil

that sounds horrifying

From:

xp_darcy

[1] Going the other way was much worse.
[2] About half the team split as immediately as possible.
[3] And I don't have to drive unless I want to.

(1) I was on the mission. I was on the 'get mildly traumatized by my parents'.
(2) I was on the COMBINATION mission and get traumatized by my parents.
(3) Be young and fabulous at Burning Man? Nah, have your burner parents tell you they closed the only good coffee spot on the playa.
(4) And then had to make sure my parents were nowhere near the actual mission portion of things.
(5) At least I got to punch a rent-a-guard in the throat.

[1] Better you than me, I'd have never gotten all that dust out of my hair.
[2] You didn't end up volunteering someone to be cut open AND have to watch it.
[3] On the other hand, I got to DARCY SMASH.
[4] Don't ask about what's in my bag.

From:

xp_daredevil

I guess...

From:

xp_daredevil

Mr parents would likely loved burning man 20 years ago...

From:

xp_darcy

[1] Next time we road trip we'll just drag you along.
[2] Nothing like being stuck together with no wi-fi and limited phone communication to really figure out how you feel about people.
[3] For some of the team that feeling was definitely "considering homicide" territory.

From:

xp_daredevil

I thought you liked me!!!

From:

xp_cypher

(1) My parents love Burning Man, and have since approximately 36-37 years ago.
(2) And doing that math is part of why I am traumatized.
(3) Actually that reminds me, I need to ask Amanda something.

xp_daredevil

But it's a road trip with ME, and I'm a fuckin delight.

From:

xp_darcy

Matt I can't tell you what's in the bag unless I invoke lawyer-client confidentiality.

From:

xp_daredevil

From:

xp_daredevil

From:

xp_darcy

[1] When we get home.
[2] I gotta talk to you both about my new network too.

From:

xp_daredevil

From:

xp_darcy

[1] I'm not taking you on an X-Force road trip unless we need you!
[2] Def meant just like, a NORMAL road trip.
[3] With us and Doug and Foggy.

From:

xp_daredevil

you think Foggy on road trip is normal? have you MET him??

From:

xp_darcy

I figured you'd want all of us on a road trip but I'm flexible. ;)

From:

xp_daredevil

how do you feel about non- stop show tunes?

From:

xp_darcy

[1] Have you met Douglas?
[2] I admittedly would need to negotiate some non-show tunes time.
[3] But probably not as much as you'd want.

From:

xp_daredevil

you'll LOVE road trips with Foggy. to no one's surprise, he was absolutely a theater kid in high school

From:

xp_darcy

Who did you think got me that Beetlejuice Broadway soundtrack for Christmas????

From:

xp_daredevil

From:

xp_darcy

You wouldn't have us any other way, admit it.

From:

xp_daredevil
