Yeah, only cuz they're college students he puts on the spot. He's not a good debater.

Didn't you say you had a video about that? I want to see it so I can put it on watch later.

Yeah, I'd recommend "The Aesthetics of Intellectualism" by Curio and "Why Debating Sucks (According to a Competitive Debater)" by Sarah Z

YES I FREAKING WOULD! I TOOK THREE YEARS OF FENCING! NUTELLA WOULDN'T STAND A CHANCE!

I've always wanted to try fencing. One of my favorite sports.

It's awesome and yet boring. Mostly because footwork and exercises take forever. But of course, learning the stance helped me ride on the top of a semi truck.

Alrighty. So. Is anyone familiar with the custom of gleaning? The Christians might. The custom goes back to Jewish law (now I am certain Owen knows what's up). If anyone recalls the story of Ruth, you know what's up. But for those of you who don't, the law was that those who had fields must not harvest the corners, so that the poor might have something to gather and eat.
So I'm in a gleaning club.
So I go out one day with my father, it's an hour's drive or so. We get there and get to work. We're about to leave when my dad realizes there's a group of kids/young adults that are volunteering to pick squash in the fields. Being the good man he is, he suggests that we offer our services, and I, unwilling to be contradictory, agreed.
Out we go and it seems that the plan is to fill up these crates that are on a trailer of a semi. So I, being the monkey that I am, agree to scramble up. We get into this setup where those on the ground are chucking squash, and those on the truck (safely, because we are in the crates) grab them out of the air, and stack them in crates as the truck slowly lumbers along the field, bumping as it goes. This is where training comes in. The fencing stance provides most excellent suspension, so I don't mind.
After the loading, (I filled two boxes. 3x5x5 I think.) we get chili! And icecream sandwiches! And popsicle!

@berlioz

Well that sounds fun, except for the fear of heights part ha. I knew of the custom, but didn't know there were clubs/organizations for it. Neato.

@berlioz

Well, I had walls, so it was fine. But the worst was hiking in Idaho and the path was two feet wide and opened to pretty much a sloping cliff of a thousand or so feet.

I hate hiking for that very reason
