WHEN: 2002 Dusk, Middle of nowhere playa, friend and I walking and two guys on bikes coming right at us very very fast.
UTTERANCE: Guy A: "It's no good, I can't maneuver!"
Guy B: "Stay on target."
Guy A: "We're too close!"
Guy B: "Stay on target!"
Guy A: <shouting> "Loosen up!"
They scream by on both sides of us...
REACTION: I am immediately twelve again, grinning from ear to ear!
RESPONSE: I holler (hopefully in time for them to hear)..."it came from behind!!!

ROFL! You should have seen the time I had one of the Japanese kids ask a ranger that question. When he finally figured out what he was asking, the ranger started to get really concerned, asking if he was okay, if he had water,... I was rolling on the ground.

My first burn, I went 'searching' for the food court (I made sure to dress as a tourist). I asked one camp where it was and a chick freaked out on me, and told me that I was ruining her burn because I was so stupid. Good comedy.

My fav Playa phrase?

FUCK YEAH

2002, Burn night...
I'm designated 'camp security',so I've climbed up to the top of our frontage art, to watch the man burn (and keep an eye on the neighborhood)...
Along comes a 20something asian fellow with his duffle bag and a BRC map - he has clearly just arrived (!) and is confuzzled, so I speak up from above his head..."Can I help you?"
His response " Where is everybody?"
pointing to playa..."See all the lights & fire?"
"Ohhhhh....."

poor guy, hope he had a good time!

by **gyre** » Mon Jun 07, 2010 1:07 pm

By the fire on the esplanade, after standing there for quite a while the night the man pre-burned, staring out into the playa.

"So....where is the man anyway?"

They had driven in and seen the man as they arrived and set up camp while everything happened, without hearing about any of it.
So they knew the man was there, having already seen it.

Heard in Center Camp:

"Any one got acid?" "Any one got acid?" "Any one got acid?"

2 hours later, the same guy being held up by 2 other guys, I hear the same guy say...

"umblea umblea umblea umblea"

Same year, almost same scenario: this guy blazes right past my hubby yelling "Drunk on bike! Drunk on bike!"

I've always loved this one, from a post by Gyre on 9-28-08

That actually made sense to me.'

From 4th of JuPlaya:

"Yeah, but I'm a ZERO DRAMA princess.".

by **googbox** » Mon Jul 12, 2010 1:39 pm

Some of my favorites that I remember (this year I'm bringing a notebook dammit)

"you know, the playa diet. It's like Atkins. With sand."

"I just had a staring contest with a frog"--said by our very timid republican virgin campmate after she had been gone way too long for a trip to the porta potties.

me: "whose tortilla is this on my tent?"
campmate: "leave it there, it's our playa tortilla warmer!"

Jellyfish-- i have a feeling I may be friends w/ the person who claimed to be a zero drama princess.

Oh and another BTW... at 4th I think I must've been asked at least 20 times if I knew where Ein Hammer was. I didn't.

Cool! Ein Hammer's pounding itself into the burner consciousness.
REmember, Mad Scientist Rampage Wednesday will end up there!

Yeah! because if there were Burner Consciousness it would have to have whatever pounded into it by a Ginormus Fire Spewing Hammer.
