Flip-flops and Tourists
Great responses and looks as though we are trending away from liking the californians with compromised shoes. Everyone on the thread who lives in a "destination town" is done with it by now? Come on, February?

Want to talk about motor homes and travel trailers? Pulling boats, fake Jeeps, ATVs?

The combined wheelbase of an out of state truck + travel trailer + trailer with ATVs is gazillions of feet on a two-lane state highway. Down the Swan Highway that can mean a back-up of miles.

Tourists, please pull over and let us pass.

Dude, your other thread is still running, why start another about the same thing three days later?

Tourists go home, but leave your cute daughters.

When I lived in Alaska, things really changed the 2.5 to 3 months of tourist season.
  • restaurants that were excellent September to mid-May, became a turn and burn establishment that didn't give a shit if they gave you what you ordered. Therefore, other than business meals I quit going tourist season.
  • it sucked if your favorite restaurant or bar made a tourist blog or magazine. 1 to 1.5 hour waits during tourist season. Therefore, other than business meals I quit going tourist season.
  • I could drive across town after a winter storm faster than I could with all of the darn tourists driving 15 mph
  • yada, yada, yada

    I said all of the above to share my favorite Alaska tourist joke.
  • Halibut season, the bag limit is 2 fish
  • Moose season, the bag limit is 1 moose
  • What's the bag limit tourist season?

    Blew out my flip flop, stepped on a pop top…

    Oh - something else? Yeah not a fan of tourists, Californians or New Yorkers - but they are here in droves. Of course they vote as Democrap so eventually we may lose. Feels a bit like the 80s movie the blob…

    But hey, embrace the South and don’t be a liberal d*ck and maybe it will work out. Our not.
