Invent a machine called the Walkie-talkie
Never walk and talk
In high school when the gym teacher didn’t want to do anything we did a “walk and talk” that’s doing laps around the track walking. Used to love those days, it was an excuse to fuck around.
When my gym teacher didn’t want to do anything, he called Free Play and just let us raid the supply closet
I fucking loved those weird little square skateboard things
two hours of walking and then he cancelled the movie
lmao
Dude was like ‘this American can’t even walk and talk coherently’ and peaced out
Unlike driving and talking, when I’m driving around a one ton hunk of metal that could kill people if I’m too distracted
Also how is walking around the town boring? You get more time to see what’s around you and if there’s an interesting spot you can stop and check it out.
Another user here told me the average american hike is 3 miles and I have not been able to get that off my brain since. That’s the shit I do with a friend on a hangover to get some fresh air
You have to remember two things
-
Many Americans live in suburbs where 3 miles might get you out of the suburb
-
America’s car brained infrastructure design means most places have incredibly shit accommodations for pedestrians
In most of the popular hiking spots in my state, once you go a mile down a trail there’s like nobody around.
IMO it’s more about duration than mileage. You can’t call it a hike if it’s under an hour, that’s a walk. I’m of the opinion that if you can do it comfortably without drinking water it’s probably a walk. That said, three miles can definitely be a hike, there are plenty of trails in the northeast US that will give you >2000 feet of elevation gain in that distance.
Hold on, you mean a “hike in nature”-hike?
3 miles doesn’t get you anywhere
It’s what I’ve been told and I trust every user of this site entirely uncritically
I find it incredibly boring and unoriginal
suggests something cool and unique, like getting a coffee
Simple first dates (like getting a coffee, or a drink, or just walking around) are great because if you have a good time, you know you had a good time because you like the person! You didn’t just have a good time doing a fun thing and the person was decent enough not to ruin it.
Especially in online dating, the first date is just supposed to be a “see if we’re compatible” thing. The second date is when you get more complex. The third date is, if you haven’t already, largely just an excuse to get inside of one of your houses.
Lol I just saw a group in my town was planning a “volkswalk”. After giving it the biggest sideeye ever, I looked it up, and they’re a harmless hobby group that encourages people to go on walks, inspired by the German movement in the 60s-70s. In conclusion, Germans be walkin
I guess it’s sometimes called volksmarchen in German, which isn’t ominous at all
volk just means people. So its a “people’s walk.” Volkspartei would be people’s party. German is a neat language. I like their word sandwiches and accents.
