i got suspended with three weeks left in the school year yesterday. my dads in china and my moms in california, leaving me with no where to go.

monday morning i head for the hills to live off of what i can for two weeks.
 
already tried getting a few friends to come pick me up. that plan got shot down quick for some reason.
 
We shall see.
Try surviving for just a week on your own without anything else in the middle of fucking nowhere. I'll guarantee 90% of the little shits on here wouldn't make it two days. Boy scouts was good for something..
 
Man, you're really having a hard time aren't you.

I wanna disappear into the woods for two weeks, real bad. Too bad I have a job.

 
This guy knows what's up.

Really though, do you not have any other family? I'm assuming you're at a boarding school, in which case they still need to make sure that you have adequate housing even if you're suspended.

If all else fails, roughing it like you supposedly plan to is hella fun. Just make sure that someone (family) knows where you plan to be, for how long, and when you're coming back so they know to send the search teams if you don't show up them.

Other than that, I hope you were a boyscout or know a thing or two about being in the wilderness. Don't get yourself killed or some shit.
 
you're a fucking moron. i'm just stoked that when you decide to do something along the lines of nature survival and then die because you're a fucking idiot, that no movie would be made because it's been done before. fuck off you useless shit fuck...and the reason i say this is because in a month, you'll be dead and whatever i said won't matter.
 
hes at college im assuming, not boarding school. they dont give a shit about you after they kick you out.
 
oh yeah? is that why he's still alive? yeah so knowledge, that's awesome when you're still alive, otherwise it's pretty useless... especially when you're dead. he was a fucking moron that knew almost enough about bears to not be killed... that's all.
 
McCandless definitely did not know what he was getting himself into, but I'm guessing you aren't a fan of Walden or of the romantic poets, based on your apparent hatred of a book, which stems not from the plot, but from the fact that it is McCandless's death is romanticized by the public eye. No, his death shouldn't be romanticized, it was his own fault. That said, the book is outright inspiring— I know that after I read it, though I felt no sympathy for McCandless, it strengthened within my mind the romantic notions I was already developing on my own. I went on a huge romanticism and transcendentalism binge after that, which has (in combination with a number of existentialist works) left me satisfied with my mortality and life in general.

Tangentially related, yes, but you've got to look beyond plot and public opinion when you read a book...
 
and you've got to look beyond the public cock-sucking of Jon Krakauer... who is a fucking writer trying to sell books after all... but hey i don't expect your feeble mind to know that.
 
I never said I liked how it was written, or by whom. I said it kickstarted in me an interest in literature I would have otherwise ignored, which significantly impacted my worldview... and that you shouldn't ignore the ideas posed in a piece of writing just because you don't like how it's written. Krakauer has nothing to do with McCandless's story other than that he's the guy who capitalized on it. Fair game.
 
Well said. +K

And jesus, skiierman... it's a god damn book, and a good book at that. It's fine that you don't like it, but you're just outright looking for a fight the way you're posting right now.

Chillthefuckout?
 
walden is in no way related to dumb ass kids who decide to go live out in the wild by themselves. walden was in a prime location for survival and it was for the main purpose of telling others of his "way" to live- his suggestion of how to live. walden only told of how it was possible to survive without the common luxurious advantages of the day and still do it happily. comparing walden to anything relevant is fucking retarded and you might as well go out and try to survive after watching an episode of bear grylls.
 
If you want to get close to nature, fuck a tree.

Haha, fuck. I'm drunk. Yee haw. Inb4 my hopefully 10000x quoted post says "the referenced post was removedm" YErrr drrrreerrrr.

Love you, green names!
 
Fuck this thread. I would just like to say that Skiierman is untouchable. Whatever you say or do won't change his view points for the simple reason that he is ignorant beyond belief, kind of like people believing god created the earth in six days. Things come to his brain, he says them without thinking, and then he reaps the rewards. He should be put a a pedestal for all to see. His well thought out and articulately answered questions make me question my own sanity. Skiierman, you are truly a man of the people and your popularity knows no bounds. Good fucking day to you sir.
 
skiierman is just a fucking dick, everyone needs to grasp that concept. no matter what you say or do, he will continue to be a bitter prick and never accept what you are trying to tell him. he wont even listen to it.
 
That's pretty sucky dude, but cool at the same time. I want to do that. good luck out there and make freinds with BEARS.

 
thats sucks about getting suspended, i really wanna hear about your time in the wilderness when u get back make a thread about what you did and how it was in the wild i'm curious to see how it was. Good luck man
 
skiierman you need to get laid

OP im not saying the woods thing is impossible, but there are plenty of other good options. try to couchsurf, or dormsurf/try to find a girl's bed each night. thatd be mad fun
 
I was wondering this too. (And I also may have missed the explanation, because this seems like the obvious solution. If your parents aren't home, you wouldnt even have to tell them you're suspended.)
 
So I go down the streets,

down to my good friend's house

I said "Look man I'm outdoors you know,

can I stay with you maybe a couple days?"

My advice to you is to start drinking heavily.
 
Skiierman's like the special kid that makes queefing noises in the corner of the room to get attention while the adults talk. Ignore him and maybe he'll go away...but probably not so just get used to hearing grossness
 
im still a minor and my moms california and my dads in china. i could go be with my mom in cali, but theres a really long story behind why i cant go there.
 
well, the last time i went to california was after one of the most terrifying days in my life. my friend fell 30 feet off of a chairlift pole and was nearly paralyzed. luckily he was fine. i had to call 911 and wanted to help him fight through his recovery. two day after that happened my mom told me we needed to get away for a couple of days before school started. (keep in mind this is august) she then told me that she had brought me out to cali to put me in rehab. i was lied to and tricked and now that something just as substantial has happened im afraid shes about to do it again and i cant let that happen.

theres more to the story to that, but after this point it starts to get pretty personal.
 
i have no way to get there. its a five hour drive and i have alot of shit that i cant hitch hike back with.
