hitch-hiking
 

How many of you would try hitch hiking?

not me to much work to sit on the side of the road trying to get a ride but its not as harmful as pepole say its is unless your a women

Not a chance. Youll end up a statistic. Scrap togehter a few bucks and take greyhound.

only if im carrying some guns

Last thursday when we had the big blackout, I picked up 4 people at 116th street and brought them to times square, then picked up 4 more and brought them uptown. I'd pick people up, but only in NYC. Also, I would never hitch-hike myself, unless I was close to death.

In the late 60's and early 70's I hitched lots of rides, met lots of interesting people........ oh I miss the good ole' days....
*sneaks into garage and pulls Dragon Bong out of box of junk that doesn't get used anymore.

I hitched once. We got our truck stuck a couple of miles in the woods. Walked out to a two lane deadend road in the middle of nowhere, probably 5-6 miles from a real highway and 30-40 miles from a city of any size. Luckily some hippy dude picked us up and drove us all the way back to town. Then we had to get a second truck, drive all the way back, and pull the first one out. I hve had to bum rides (yes, plural) from strangers before when our boat broke down, pulled into one landing and had the get a ride back to the landing we were parked at, but that is a little different.

why only NYC...arne't there alot of weidos who roam the street...I know theres some weirdos in toronto.

i know a woman who had a flat tire and a guy helped her out and he wanted a ride somewhere. She told the man she couldnt take him anywhere. When the woman got home she found a rope and a shovel in the trunk.

I would do it only if it was absolutly nessesary, such as, no ride home from woodstock

i would never hitch hike

i dont want to die

Nah, man. Just being a helpful NY'er.

Pyro, yes there are, but you can trust most of em in NYC. We used to have a homeless guy named Bill that lived in a dumpster watch our cars from theives and stuff like that for 2 bucks a day. He saved for 3 months and made like 1 grand. He moved to Arizona I think.

there are a few wackos in toronto like that man who raped and killed that little girl....i would never hitch hike unless i had to

By any chance were they all 12 year old insecure girls?

i'm just asking because on the radio program savvy traveler they had a reporter go on the road and hitchhike. some people do this just to meet other people and learn about life. Just found it interesting...of course nowadays, it is difficult to trust people with more and more complexness in life

i want to go to NY, i want to see Conan O'Brian sooo bad, and Time Square, and all that other stuff

Yeah, in the 60's life was very laid back and you could hitchhike all over, it was the best and cheapest way to see your country. Now, everybody's a serial rapist. In fact, hitch-hiking is outlawed in this province.

No, because of people like on AA.com.


I tried it once, when the ski resort parking lot was full, and we had to walk like 1.5 miles in ski boots. That sucked.

Nobody would pick us up, even in trucks. It was lame.

I dont think that counts as hitchhiking anyway.

Yeah, i lost a ride home from work once (construction site) and hitched back. I wasn't worried, who's gonna fuck with me anyway?
