Within 5 minutes of my first hike, the trees smiled at me and whispered their simple wisdom.

This probably only sounds profound to people who haven’t been outside in 7 years. Don’t get me wrong hiking is good for the soul. But if it hits you that hard after five minutes you’re probably terminally online.

Also why can’t trees have complex wisdom gosh darn it?

reminder: one does not, under any circumstances, have to “give it to them”. these weird fuckers already have all the water carriers they need

and no, it doesn’t appear to be the case that this person is merely a shitty writer

(nor is that the only thing they’re shitty about)

To be fair, he is a really, really shitty writer in addition to the other flaws.

at least for once it isn’t the kind of post where a bayfucker went “I took acid in a park and you wouldn’t believe what <completely obvious thing> I discovered”
