Captain Chaoss Posted December 18, 2003 Share Posted December 18, 2003 In the TRavel Bug topics, I came across this phrase - Stop Messing With My Bugs!, What kind of bovine scatology is this? I love that phrase ! gets the point across and sounds cool. Anyone else have a good one they learned here in the forums ? Quote Link to comment
+Snoogans Posted December 18, 2003 Share Posted December 18, 2003 While I was waiting the 9 days for my Lyme tider results, (Negative) I came up with: Geocaching: Wayyy more chances to contract West Nile, or Lyme Disease, than the average person.

+Divine Posted December 18, 2003 Share Posted December 18, 2003 Anyone else have a good one they learned here in the forums ? As I'm not a native English speaker I keep constantly seeing new sayings and phrases that I wasn't aware of before. Even the most common like chip in or my neck of woods. Took me awhile to get what TPTB means too. My favorite phrase ATM is something Criminal said some time ago in his pantywaste-thread (See! There's another new and useful term! Keep 'em coming! ): If it’s OK for Bartholomew Bear and Ernie Elk to wander to and fro, eating the plants and wiping their rectums with bunnies, it’s more so for me. I’m just not finding the plants to be of my liking and not having an easy time of catching a bunny. Quote Link to comment
+Sparky-Watts Posted December 18, 2003 Share Posted December 18, 2003 I used the word muggle in conversation with my wife the other day.....it just came out (she's not a cacher yet). She looked at me as if I'd lost my mind. Quote Link to comment

+Bjorn74 Posted December 18, 2003 Share Posted December 18, 2003 These were my thoughts when contemplating the newest Garmin features just for geocaching... GeoSwag Mode.... Tells you whether the cache that is 50 feet in one of 17 directions has a total value of $20, $50, or Ai-carumba!!! $100! GeoSnag Mode... Detection of thorny plants ensures a quality trip everytime. What's a find if you diodn't leave a quart of blood on the ground or in the bellies of swarms of insects? GeoForm mode... Using a 3d detection glove and sock, Your GPS uses criteria configured by Simon to post your Geotechnique along with your cache log. i.e. Jan. 15th 2007. "The Wolf Eats the Little Lamb Cache." GC14PPKD Found with little trouble. TNLN. Simon Says: The triple Soucow over the log needs work. -3 on the landing. The yell was good. Nice and clear with a hint of relief. Over all: Style- 10 Technical- 2. Quote Link to comment

+GatoRx Posted December 18, 2003 Share Posted December 18, 2003 "Huckle Buckle Beanstalk!!!!!!" When you're caching in a group, and you find the cache, you walk away from it, wait a minute or two while others look, and then yell/say that. Everyone else does the same when they find it, and the last person to find it gets to retrieve it. It lets everyone involved have a chance to find it, and the walking away and waiting part can help keep the location from being too obvious. Quote Link to comment

Radman Forever Posted December 19, 2003 Share Posted December 19, 2003 I learn from my Dan Quayle quotes! I have learned that when we went to the moon, we finally entered the solar system. He also taught me that by failing we run the risk of failure! He also showed me that a low voter turnout means that fewer people are going to the polls. He also said that space for NASA is still a high priority. He was the smartest vice president we ever had and everybody should sing the praises of Dan Quayle! Quote Link to comment

+Kordite Posted December 24, 2003 Share Posted December 24, 2003 (edited) At one cache, my log noted one of the lessons I had learned (or re-learned). That one log started a trend and now I've added a list to my webpage. Lessons Learned while Geocaching 1. Don't eat a big, maple syrup smothered breakfast before setting out into the woods. (GC9B5E) 2. Pack toilet paper before setting out into the woods. (GC9B5E) 3. US Military "Jungle" boots are too flexable for rocky terrain. Buy rigid-soled hiking boots. (GC281C) 4. US Military "Jungle" boots do not protect your ankles from rock edges and ankle-twisting holes. Buy rigid-soled, over-the-ankle hiking boots. (GC281C) 5. Go back the way you came. (GC281C) 6. Take a change of clothes. (GC6A29) 7. Trust your instincts. (GC111C) 8. No, really. Trust your instincts. (GC111C) 9. Gravity is a harsh mistress. (GCGBJ7) Edited December 24, 2003 by Kordite Quote Link to comment
