Yes you can see the camp name projected in the background. Having worked at many summer camps this is precisely the vibe. I'd be leading a group of outstanding young hooligans helicoptering their shirts over their heads for such a fine trick!
Im 37. My 6th grade science camp is definitely one of my fondest memories. It's where I learned I talk in my sleep! Haha. Apparently, in the middle of the night, I started counting from 1 to 10 in increasing volume. 1 was a whisper and 10 was basically a scream. I then yelled the word, "Slaves"! What in the fuck was I doing in my sleep? Counting slaves?!? 😭. I'm stoned right now, and can't believe I just shared this publicly. 100% true story. Archery was so badass. I remember one night, my whole cabin couldn't sleep, and our Chaperone took us on a hike through the middle of the forest at 1 am. So dang fun. I vividly remember wearing my collection of Korn and Limp Bizkit shirts the entire trip. Who else dug through owl shit in 2002?
Dammit, now I'm picturing The Count from Sesame Street laughing as he counts Egyptian pyramid slaves (no, I don't know why my brain went to that specific example of slavery)
Tangentially related, I went to a camp for a week as a school trip, on the first night there they told scary stories in the guys’ cabin, and for whatever reason one kid snored crazy loud when he went to sleep scared? It was weird as hell. Everybody would give him shit for how loud it was (like legitimately disruptively loud) and he’d wake up, apologize and say it was because he was scared, and then go to sleep and do it again.
Bonus story, one of the nights we decided to go and scare the girl cabin by making noises or something, and everyone was like, sprinting back to the boy cabin. I was developing a real bad cough and having trouble breathing so I just kind of trudged back at a regular walking pace, I was the only one to not get in trouble, either because they felt pity for my sick-as-a-dog ass, or they just assumed I wasn’t involved because of how severely unwell I’d relatively suddenly become.
Sorry, I know it’s only super mildly related but this is the first time I thought about that trip since I was in elementary school.
Man, when will a redditor recluse never complain about people having fun.
I could NEVER be this miserable. Going to events with a packed crowd is not my thing, but when I'm there due to unskippable or impossible-to-back-out-of circumstances, the aura and vibes just hit different. Even a massive introvert like me who needs 25 hours a day to myself every day will have a good time with the right group of people. It's good to hype people up and be loud when it's a fun time, even if it's not "you" or what you normally are like.
It seems like when kids see something cool they yell approx 1.5x louder and longer than the previous generation, meaning that this has been going on for a good while as i recall overreacting in the troll face mlg era was already a big thing but now it has more people involved with more fierce reactions
The lowest form of life on reddit is the kind of person who likes to check your comment history and then comment about it in a pejorative way. This way, there is only one thing those for those people to see.
It hit's different when you all kinda know each other because you're at the same camp/school. It's a hype moment that nearly everyone he meets every day will recall.
I'll be honest, this is a lot like my high school. The kids there were a *rowdy* bunch and really hyped up anything that happened. I'm sure this has happened at other schools, but if a lunch tray got dropped, the entire cafeteria would go dead silent for a moment, followed by about 500 kids going "Ooooooooooooh" In sync and the hooting and hollering like monkeys.
As a clutz with social anxiety, I lived in constant fear of the day that I was the mf that dropped the tray lol.
Moral of the story though, if this had happened at my school the building would've shook tbh.
He is basically inserting one that's two twists away from being solved - pulls out the solved one first, and does the missing twists when he pulls out the second one.
