People who light a fireplace on the first cool day are human pieces of shit!  I've got all the windows open embracing the coolness after this beat down of a summer.  I have to close them due to fireplace stench.

Disagree.  It’s the smell of fall

I wouldn’t call it defensive if I’m laughing at the thread. It’s funny, that’s all. To some extent I agree, that it ain’t true hunting, but what other term is it called? I also think that you could have picked up on that in my response listing duck, quail and pheasant…

1. If you're talking to someone, learn how to use the quote button. 2. People have already answered you - shooting, harvesting, killing, whatever. You also brought up some dumbass example about fishing (no one called fishing "hunting" so what the hell is your point?) and said I should write a letter to Merriam-Webster. Why? Do they define hunting as shooting at animals you've been feeding? Nah, they define it as "pursuit of game."

1. Happy now that I quoted you? Whatever. 2. I must have missed the final vote. I guess we are done now, as the people have spoken. Ok, who gives a shit, it’s a thread in Lulz.

As to the example, I find it funny in the way that fishing is baiting a hook and waiting for the prey. Just like the example of “hunting” that was provided. Waiting for Bambi at the feeder! To simple I guess.

Lastly, the term “hunting”, seems a little vague. But that’s probably the point.




Anyhow, I’m done, whatever. Fun sucker.

Is it an unpopular opinion to suppose that a forum called "LULZ" is not the right place to go into standard Surly behavior of "I'm right, you're an asshole"?

If you want to call shooting deer at a feeder "deer fishing," be my guest. Certainly a more honest description.

Is despising SpiderMan unpopular?

Love the smell of a fireplace as long as it is someone else’s and they are not burning one of those god damned, pencil sharpener smelling, Duraflame Log, pieces of shit.

Cedar/Juniper outdoors, roger that. Oak, fruit- and nut-woods indoors.

In the infamous words of Bill Bradley…..

As long as it is real wood.

I also like to burn pinion wood from time to time in the fire pit out back.

I actually love the smell of cedar burning but it is dangerous to burn, indoors especially.
