I saw this group at the turtle. Figured there would be a video
Normally I don’t care about this stuff, I was no better 30 years ago
But there’s 3 parts in here that are just not ok with me.
enjoy, flame away. Or if your ok with it that also fine. My guess is the crowd in here will not be

Now I understand all the times my Dad either belted me, straight-arm'd me knocking the wind out of me, or kicked me in the ass lifting me off the ground.
I'd be embarrassed if any of these kooks were my kid. Worthless.

Be curious to know your 3 not ok things.
Depending on my mood, I could come up with more and less. At this point I'm at 1, the other shit is youth at work.

Hot chicks, boats, guns, fireworks, dirt bikes.....looks like a great fucking time to me. We did waaaay worse, thank god everyone wasn't carrying a video camera back in the day. Yet somehow we all survived, well, most of us did .....lol.

I only had 1 I didn't like, and then they showed the guy jumping in to get his beer can, and all was right with today's youth in book.

These dudes have some serious BMX and Motocross skills.

I might have to go back and watch the whole thing.. I was kinda skipping 10 seconds at a time.

The only thing I thought was kinda disturbing was the guy shooting the gun off into the lake at 14:20... and then towards the end you can see them doing some crazy shit with fireworks in a neighborhood.. It was kinda blurry but it looked like they were shooting a Roman candle at a neighbors house or something. If I was "trying" to come up with three, I'd guess the bomb they put at the edge of the light house could've damaged the paint.

Exhibit A - Pontoon set is turning into the get off my lawn set. :p

You all did stupid stuff, it just isn't recorded.

This is getting ridiculous lol. Starting to think 60% of the members should sell the toys and take up croquette.

Is boating even fun or do you guys just point out every fault and bitch at the sand bar?

They’d bitch that the field wasn’t green enough and cut at the incorrect length.

I go out and have fun every time I go out.. LOL. I was thinking about going and running today because it isn't overly hot and overcast.

Still not as bad as FB.. I'm on several group pages, and it's fucking out of control. Even the RDP FB page has a bunch of idiots on it now.. I ban them on the regular, but it's overwhelming. Certain other groups, forget about it.. It's not even worth reading unless you want to lower your IQ.

Just took my brother and his USC buddies out last weekend. We all had a blast!

Drove out Thursday night we all worked till noon on Friday and then we hit the lake.

No feelings of animosity on the water and even ran into a member @Jefftowz and said hi on the ramp.

No one squirted us in the channel, parking was easy everywhere we went, no one pulled a gun and cops just gave a friendly wave.

The random firing of the gun bothered me most.
The dude dumping 2 beers down his face inside my boat wouldn't fly either.
The can toss in lake was redeemed by swimming after it😄

This is what we'd call a classic "heat diversion" 🤣 🤣

Even though I'm not on facebook I got a real kick out of your suggestion to someone to go over to Red Onion for his bloody mary 😊😄

while the guns were definitely not cool......for those of you "older folks" who didn't get into the shenanigans back in the day.........well you missed out on a lot of good times. somehow we lived through it. if I was young again....... i doubt it would be any different.

It was the dad firing the gun and chilling the pyro in the freezer right?

These guys have some balls, doing the flips off the rocks (Copper Canyon?) and jumping off the speeding boat, good bike tricks in the pool, pretty brave stuff (or just stupid) most of it was self abuse/for laughs kind of nonsense, the beer in his own face was kinda funny, I think it was a frugal attempt to do a "Shot Gun" , hate to see a good beverage go to waste but I liked how they went in after the can to avoid littering the lake. The girls look like a fine array of the female class (or lack of) but would be a hoot to party with, Anything for attention I guess. I've done some of this stupid crap in my 20's myself, the difference is they do it better and have more expensive toys.

Did some crazy things in my youth. Glad no camera's were around. But now looking at today's stuff especially after jackass none of my things were on that level.

I'm not that judgmental 'In Person', I actually enjoy talking to people from different walks of life. Certain people I'll steer clear of for obvious reasons (angry drunks, dirty looks, and snobs) . . . but when you 'Tee-It-Up' for me by feeling that you need to take the time to document, record, edit, and post your school-yard grab-ass contest on YouTube . . . well sorry . . . the 'Lawn Nazi' in me comes out. It's the shallow 'Look at Me I'm radder than you' narcissistic bullshit so prevalent these days that I'm sick of. Yep . . . I did, (and still do) stupid shit, we all have. . . but I've never felt compelled to record it, much less share it with the world on the internet. I don't need a fucking youtube video to validate my existence.

PS. Get Off My Lawn ! 🤣

I have to be honest I think the $30 shirts are great. I don’t mind paying for good quality and good fitting shirt.

Ive seen videos from these guys before and some are good. More clicks more money. This thread has helped them.
-the light house mortar. I think these light houses are maintained by volunteers. So that sucks
-gun into water, just not cool. Yes it happens all the time all over the desert. But from a boat its somehow different
-the mortar up into the canyon then hauling ass after. Meh, trash, potential fire. Just not cool.
-mini bike in the skate park. Yes it concrete and it hurt nothing. But this park was pushed hard by the Tony Hawk foundation and dedicated to a Havasu Solder. I was at the inauguration. Again it didnt hurt anything but it does give others ideas. Yes they have skill on 2 wheels

They were hammered at the turtle, going big is no issue for these guys.

I watch these guys, buttery, danny duncan, they all have the same thing going on. You tube clicks and merchandise. A career path thats not a option for old guys!

They’ve got good taste in boats, I approve of the color and everything. Maybe I should check the garage and make sure mines still there.
