Fellow Extreme Weather Lemmings, what are your Buy it for Life winter boot suggestions?

We got my husband some Helly Hansen boots the year before last and we noticed a hole in them last year. I am right pissed. If I’m dropping hundreds of dollars on boots, I expect to get my money’s worth. What are your awesome boot suggestions to help me do just that?

UsernameLost,

I call it “don’t live in a place where the air hurts my face”

But actually, XtraTuf boots are great.

UsernameLost,

No problem! They worked great for me for a few years in Alaska, highly recommend them for snow or wet areas. They make insulated ones, but I never had an issue with the uninsulated ones if I doubled up on socks.

You will, however, get some weird looks if you wear them in an airport outside of the PNW

UsernameLost,

Lol fair. I wore my XtraTufs on a flight and got some real weird looks in LAX on my layover

UsernameLost,

True!

My wife had a D&C after a miscarriage earlier this year. Luckily, our state isn’t as shitty as others, but the surgery was still labeled an abortion, and they made her answer a bunch of questions like it was a choice and not that our baby was dead for a month before the 12 week ultrasound. And the shitheel front desk woman lied to us and said that no one could be back there with her (obviously not in surgery, but I wasn’t even able to be back in the waiting area with her pre or post op), because that woman was a religious fruitcake and “didn’t agree with the procedure”

We raised some serious hell after finding that out and took it up through their patient advocate. It went up to the hospitals board and they issued an apology, which meant fuck all, and I think that woman was fired.

I don’t understand why people want to be involved in anyone else’s lives. I get it if you personally don’t agree with abortions, but that’s your choice. You don’t get the right to decide what someone else does with their own fucking body. The kicker is that most people don’t even realize that a D&C after a miscarriage is the same exact procedure and is classified the same. Excuse the fuck out of me if I don’t want my wife to die from sepsis or have to sit around for another 1-2 months with a dead fetus inside of her waiting for it to possibly discharge naturally. That whole experience was awful enough and she wanted it to be over as soon as possible.

Fuck your religious beliefs. Apply them to yourself, no one else should bend over to appease your stupid sky fairy bullshit.

Man, it was really cool growing up with the evolution of graphics. Went from N64 to PS1, Xbox, and all the way through today. Every step of the way was awesome

UsernameLost,

Looking back, there were definite jumps between generations, but at the time it definitely felt gradual after xbox->360/PS2->PS3. The jump to Xbox/PS2 was incredible at the time

UsernameLost,

YOU’RE NOT MY SUPERVISOR

but yeah, seeing dozens of support related questions kinda goes against the expressed purpose of this community.

Mumford and Sons. Their first few albums were unique, and a nice change from everything else. Then they turned around and shit on everyone that liked their music before turning into Coldplay

Bees come out of your eyes

Proctologists hate this one weird trick!

Nope, hard pass

Holdover from the older internet. People used to spam the fuck out of them, and it got real old. Combine that with the hive mind, and you get a rabid hatred of emojis
