It's just when you talked about camping and then grabbing water out of a fridge that brought about confusion. It would have been more readily apparent if you just said RVing instead of camping.

Honest question, is camping with a tent trailer now considered RVing?

No, it's called homeless shelter cosplay, as opposed to just homeless cosplay.

That's the greatest thing resalien has brought to CP.

I recently discovered the benefits of plugging in my tent trailer. I think that's the line. Unplugged is camping. Plugged in is RVing.

Sleeping on the ground in a tent is camping.

It's only camping if you're in a lean-to built handcrafted by oneself using nothing but one of those little steel-cable saws to cut down the required trees.

Steel cable saws? You call that camping? When I was your age, I had to trap a beaver and use it to cut down trees.

And then kill the beaver for it's pelt/meat and use of its tail as a weapon.

Yup, on cold mornings there's nothing like a warm beaver to help with morning wood.

That's exactly it. The minute this word pops up in the equation, a large majority couldn't be arsed to change what they do. Lazy, it's the Western way!

Well, I won't deny that age has made me soft. But if I'm going to camp with 4 kids, I'm not doing it without a fridge.
