too many encounters with throw hikers have convinced me I will never hike the AT

[hikerboy57]

Is a throw hiker male or female?

What about the other choices?

Shim........

throws like a lefty even though he's a righty probably a female

Is Throw hiking part of the UL trend.....

There will be Yahoos anywhere you go. On and off the trail. There are a lot fewer Yahoos off the trail than on. The nice thing about the trail is if you don't like what's going on at a particular place you can just keep walking. That's what hikers do...they walk. Hike your on hike or don't hike at all. Either way don't presume to know what the trail does for those of us that love it.

"too many encounters with throw hikers have convinced me I will never hike the AT". Starting a thread like that on a hikers forum...dumb, just plain dumb. The attempt at critical thinking by the OP was an epic fail.

This thread is too funny to ignore but it should be over on the humor forum.

I just figured out the OP's screen name. Wow that took some heavy thought.

The dude is miserable. Misery loves company. That's why he came here and that's why he WILL hike on the AT. He can't stand to be alone.

This thread has jumped the shark.

But if it was on the humor forum we would expect it to be funny. This thread is funny because it wasn't intended to be, and that's the best kind!

fully knowing that at the end of the journey I will likely not have learned anything new about myself or found the epiphany that has eluded me all my life. The grief, the angst, the lack of meaning and sense of direction than inspire people to embark on these journeys will still be there.

if your feeling like the hike of the A T will not relieve all these feelings because there are too many people and the hike of the entire A t is a standard experience then you believe all experiences and all people you will ever meet are unsatisfactory to you, however you got to this point you are not the only one who has felt that way. it's not the trail or the people that will fail to change how you feel it is something inside you.

Hmm, I think I can recall a few hikers who overindulged in town and were throw hikers later that night or the next morning. (One of them threw in the back of my car once ... hey Paul, you here? Haven't heard from you in a long time...)
