Good and Bad, Mostly Bad, Ways to Fill Your Empty Soul: #7 Climb A Mountain

Climb A Mountain

What it Entails:

Step 1: The hubris to assume that a non-sentient conglomeration of rock, dirt, snow and trees cares what you do.

Step 2: A willingness to be cold and live in uncomfortable conditions.

Step 3: The ability to convince others that accompanying you is a good idea.

Step 4: Choose a mountain.

Step 5: Don’t be a pansy, choose a bigger mountain. That’s right, you’re making a statement.

Step 6: Climb the mountain.

Note: Step 6 is said to be complicated, especially if you executed Step 5 with panache.

Pros:

1. If you’re doing this in style the Sherpa will carry your things.

2. You’re on top of the world. Good job. Now climb back down.

3. Consistently terrible cell phone reception.

Cons:

1. Must either carry your own things, or associate with a Sherpa.

2. Trolls are mythical, none will appear to eat any companions who end up being annoying.

3. Utter lack of foie gras on both ascent and descent.
