    In the past two weeks, I’ve taught one friend how to start a fire and another friend how to mow her lawn. What are these dads out here doing?

    • My father worked very late and on Sundays he spent riding his bike and resting... Almost everything I know I learned from other friendsOBBTKN
    • I don’t mow my own lawn lol.monospaced
    • I’m always shocked at how many people don’t know anything about fire. I camped a ton as a kid so it’s natural to me, but my dad never didmonospaced
    • ^ Seriously. It's the first thing you learn in Cub Scouts. It's so easy and somehow there's a lot of people out there that can't figure it out.garbage
    • 1. Start with a lighter.Nairn
    • This. It's good to know how to make a fire from scratch. It's also smarter to always have a BIC or DJEEP in your pocket.garbage
    • i have about 30 lighters... you guys want some?pango
    • Lighter is useless if you don’t know how to build a fire. Ive seen ignorant fools fail making fire, and they had plenty of lighters. Even wood ffs.monospaced
    • Obviously? But building a proper stack and building from tender is easy. The lighter and presoaked wool in that Altoid can are your best friend.garbage
    • Who wants to make a hand drill after hiking 20 miles into nowhere and the sun is falling?garbage
    • Yeah nobody said that. Survival fire starting techniques not relevant.monospaced
    • Who was talking about survivalism? I was talking about hiking, not bushcraft lol. Please lose your weird hate boner for me.garbage
    • You go out of your way to be wrong about things I say. Boomer things, I guess.garbage
    • so.... any takers on those lighters?pango

    • lol. she used a lighter, but knew how to stack the primer, kindling, and wood to feed itself. her girlfriends were so surprised no lighter fluid was needed!?imbecile
    • you’re talking about fire starters like those are part of building a fire ... this isn’t Boy Scouts, and I’m not a boomer you petulant child.monospaced
    • I’m younger than you think, and maybe that bothers you because I’m so much farther in life, and more successful? Not sure.monospaced
    • Nothing about you bothers me, except for your foam-mouth rubbish clogging up my feed. I have never tried to trigger you, but god damn you have a hard-on for me.garbage
    • Let it go sweetheart, you don't interest me.garbage
