Geocaching is like sex because…


Recommended Posts

Geocaching is like sex because...

 

...You're always taking something out and putting something back in.

 

...It's considerably less fun when you do it by yourself.

 

...When you finally convince someone to do it for the first time, they suddenly want to do it with EVERYONE.

 

...You will gladly walk miles if there's even a remote possibility that you'll do it. Even in the rain.

 

...If you do it too much, you'll be sore and have trouble walking in the morning.

 

...As soon as you do it, you want to rush back to the Internet so you can tell all your friends about it.

 

...You have a curious fascination with who was there before you were.

 

...Both are dependent on being able to pick up signals.

Because GPS has the same letters as PmS and without the first you don't want to do it and with the second you don't want to do it.

...the treasure is usually covered by a bush

 

...the tighter the seal the better

 

...you are always looking for a new mount with a good position for your tool

 

...even if you only do it once, there is a good chance you will make more of the caches

 

...it sort of looses the fun to refind one instead of seeking a new one

 

...if you don't keep it clean, dry and hiden, someone is going to point at it and make it pretty much useless

 

...it is a bad idea to use explosives for either

 

...equally bothersome to have it smell like bad food enough to draw or attact animals.

 

...it is hard to ask for directions the first time you try

 

...you read about it, in manuals and on the net, and look at lots of pictures before you really try one

 

...it is always a good idea to just stop and look around, you never know what fun areas you can miss by just going for the cache, have fun and make a good outing of it

 

It's not a sport unless there is something dead in the back of the truck when you get home.

Yeah, I hate when that happens while I'm geocaching!

What exactly are you putting in the caches you find? I'll bet they are micros......

Geocaching is NOT like sex because...

 

...people don't frown on you having lots of partners.

 

...you can do it platonically.

 

And I just want to say that pdxkim's reply really, really scares me.

just because you spend all your time looking for it does not mean you are actually going to find it.

 

and even if you do actually find it you may realize it was more effort than it was actually worth anyway.

 

you will promptly forget this as soon as you are done and immediately begin searching for the next one.

 

someday we'll look back on all this and plow into a parked car.

...You can do it at night

...Nooners are fun

...It can make it more exciting when you here strange sounds in the dark.

 

Geocaching is not like sex because...

 

GC When you do it at night, there are glint markers to show you the way.

 

S When you do it at night, the woman is always trying to tell you where to go (Oh wait, I guess that would make both the same)

 

GC Stumbling around in the dark can be funny.

S Stumbling around in the dark can be embarassing.

 

Signature? I don't need no stinkin signature!!!!

The following list is a collection of all (or nearly) the previous posts in one area:

¼ if you do it once, you want to do it again as soon as possible.

¼ most people look for the easy one's first

¼ the first few times you do it it's tough to find the correct spot.

¼ You're a virgin until you have done it for the first time

¼ it's common for newbies to be unsuccessful because they use the wrong datum.

¼ They're also likely to measure in seconds instead of minutes.

¼ it is hard to ask for directions the first time you try

¼ When you finally convince someone to do it for the first time, they suddenly want to do it with EVERYONE.

¼ Because we like it when we get firsties.

¼ it’s always a race to be the “first finder”.

¼ Because you can do it in groups as a team event or by yourself?

¼ It's better to do it with a partner but you can go solo when nobody is around.

¼ some people use their Palms, especially when doing a pocket query. (PQs never sounded dirty to me before this thread).

¼ if your partner doesn't want to do it with you, it's fun alone too.

¼ It's considerably less fun when you do it by yourself.

¼ adding a third or fourth partner makes it more fun.

¼ it's much more fun with a girl.

¼ Cause I do it alone!!!

¼ virtuals aren't as fun.

¼ There's GOT to be some joke in here about the use of toys

¼ it’s easier if you know how to work the equipment.

¼ sometimes it takes a lot of batteries to reach that certain point

¼ It's better to start with new batteries

¼ If your batteries go dead, it becomes work instead of play.

¼ Good batteries will keep you going, or is it coming?

¼ All the toys use double A's (I think)

¼ because if you press the right buttons you find what you want.

¼ the $100 piece will get what you need, but may leave you feeling a bit short, but $500 unit has all sort of special features

¼ because sometimes no matter how hard you try, the pointer just doesn't work!

¼ The larger ones that come with an assortment of toys are usually preferred to the smaller, log only ones.

¼ Some people just don't go for the micros, virtuals, or locationless!

¼ The hardest ones are always the most satisfying.

¼ the tighter the seal the better

¼ the smaller containers are better to find.

¼ Size matters: The larger ones are easier to get a hold of.

¼ the size of your unit doesn't matter it's how you use it!

¼ having someone find your micro can be hard

¼ the more you do it, the more you want to do it

¼ you can do a multi if you like.

¼ people don't frown on you having lots of partners.

¼ Those that have 500 hits are the most respected in the community because of their experience!

¼ once you're married, you don't get to do it as often (see also my poem)

¼ you worry that hiding more than 20 caches may make you known as a "Geo Pimp"

¼ you complain when you aren't getting enough

¼ Those who talk about it the most only do it once a month and badly, to boot.

¼ your partner thinks you are obsessed

¼ After doing it, you report it online to all your geeky friends.

¼ if you're not doing it, you're online reading about others doing it.

¼ when you can't actually do it, you spend all your time reading about it and looking at pictures!

¼ explaining to your wife where you have been is difficult

¼ You have a curious fascination with who was there before you were.

¼ Both are dependent on being able to pick up signals.

¼ Because IT'S ALL GOOD, JUST SOME BETTER
