Most people are cool with the body shots and the taking of pictures. The thing though is that there is always some jack ass from across the pool with a telephoto lens taking picts of naked ladies to just perv over. NOT COOL. Yes, unfortunately it does but it is not often. You may classify this in with the "apeshitness". The biggest thing like I said is respect. Do not just help yourself to anyone. Ask them and/or their SO, if they would mind before to avoid anything stupid happening. Once you have that established most of the rest of the time it is ok. Same kind of thing follows suit with picture taking.
Yes it does some dude almost got the sh#t smacked out of him for grabbing a few wives that weren't his.needless to say he was sent packing after that.
The first TTR new attendee handbook. With Trish's and everybody else's additions I think we have enough information to publish the first official first time attendees TTR HANDBOOK! We could call it APESHITNESS for DUMMY's at TTR. . I know I would buy it and seriously I thank everyone for your great posts. It will make my first visit so much more memorable and safe!
Thank you for this suggestion!!! Barby doesn't enjoy flying at ALL (something about crashing and burning or something) and the plane ride becomes very expensive at $5 a drink on most trips.
The TSA doesn't care that you bring alcohol on the plane, but the flight attendants do(or are supposed to, some look the other way). Because they sell booze on the plane, they want you to buy it from them. It is very easy to drink your own though, just keep an eye out for them.
Has Barby ever thought about trying Xanax when flying? I was a horrible, nervous white knuckle flier until I was introduced to this wonderful med. Now I can even sleep on the flight.
That was my great idea when Michael got a job in Seattle and I was still living in SoCal for the first year so my daughter could finish her senior year of high school. I flew to see him every 2-3 weeks and had all my liquid stuff at his apartment, so it left me a lot of room in that ziplock, even with a carry-on. Before the very stupid and pointless liquid rules went into effect, we used to bring water bottles full of wine/booze on flights to have fun and save a ton of money - I had the epiphany that I could do the same thing with little bottles in the ziplock for my Seattle trips - filled 4-5 with raspberry vodka, went through security, then got a lemonade at McDonalds in the OC airport, dumped a few inches out in the bathroom sink, and filled it back up again with the vodka right before my flight boarded. Walked on dozens of Alaska Air flights with my vodka/lemonade drink in a McDonalds cup - lol! One time I was so ripped walking through seatac to meet Michael, that I dropped my blackberry in the airport. We were all the way to Bellevue before I realized I couldn't find my phone. We called my number and an airport person answered - someone was actually nice enough to turn it in to lost and found :mnm: Michael was just thrilled to drive me back to the airport to get it - lol Anyway - works better with darker colored plastic bottles, and you really want to make sure the lids close with a tight seal - discovered some bottles don't work so well when they are turned sideways in a bag :huh:
This sounds like a good time. I would add/edit as follows: 1. Enter at least one of the dumbass games your first trip, preferably the Ironman or Ironwoman ones if only one enters, or the couples games if you ar eboth at least a little outgoing. You'll make a LOT of friends really damn quick that way. 2. Go to the Sexy Pool bar and ask, no I am not kidding, to "be bodyshotted." 3. Play The Tequila Volleyball. 4. Try the Purple Shit. Perhaps as many as 9 times in a row. 5. Experiment with tipping procedures, and then offer your own theory on the results hereof on here (CCC) when you get home. We're all still trying to figure out the "best" way. No, again, I am not kidding. 6. Get just a little, perhaps a lot crazy, with a group of people you've just met with some sexy pics after drinking all night at Patyo's. Just saying. It's hot. 7. Find someone with one of the Jacuzzi rooms on the first floor around the Quiet pool and ask if you/they can have a spa-party. Nothing swinger-ish intended, just see how many naked or near naked people you can fit in the damn thing. Record is 17 according to Lenni. 8. Stroll up to the Sexy Pool (not in the pool, it diffuses the "effect") and say very loudly, "Hey, I need a line of wet pussies over here please!" And just wait to see what happens. 9. Play the guessing game about "Who will wear one sock" on Thursday night. 10. Talk to every single person you can the entire trip. Best advice I can give ya.
She's a freak of nature. She's tried it all and I've carried her on the plane before unfortunately. I'll keep trying
I have to tell you my Blackberry story in person some day! In Vegas I got it returned one last night in a story you won't believe. We have traveled a ton in the last 3 years. So many different stories where Barby's f'd the take off flight... I'll keep taking her for the special perks
