    Default Okay, somebody has got to tell me!

    Just what on gods green earth is a hong????

    Are they key for wilderness survival?

    Is Rick the only one who has one?

    Do we all need one when SHTF?

    Does a hong enlighten your path to enrichment?

    Did the hippies of yesteryear use them?

    I am new on this forum, so please tell what exactly is a hong

    For those of us that have seen the hong, the very mention of the object causes us to squint and turn our eyes from the monitor screen as we frantically and instictively click the mouse like a morse code operator on the Titanic.

    Save yourself and your eyesight, delete the querry!

    Asking is like eating plants you haven't positively identified, you are better off not going there. Thats like licking a flag pole to see how cold it is. or any other things that can cause irreparable damage. I have had to go through counseling to wipe the image from my mind only to be reminded in this post. I will be Okk?ayyy?/. I feel stronger day by day in every way. The hong will not hurt you the hong will not hurt you the hong will not hurt you put down the Twinkie the hong will not hurt you it is not alive, MAke it go away>>>

    Oh lordy.....somebody asked about that which is not to be spoken of or viewed, allowing Rick to believe there is interest and inferring that he should post a picture. Quick! Take the women and children and head for the hills for the EOTWAWKI is nigh.

    I am so glad you asked about the hong. First, the proper pronunciation is THONG but B has banned the mention of the "T" word so we can only mention Hong. Yes, I own many hongs, mostly camouflage but also black for night time operations. So far as I know, only one picture of me exists in a hong and since Crash suggested that I should post the picture, here it is...

    Guests can not see images in the messages. Please register in the forum.

    Hardly anyone notices my cool boots or hat. Now, aren't you glad you asked?

    Wildthang that is a bannable offence encouraging Rick to divulge THAT picture.
    I had just finished paying for counselling over the last sight of that. Thanks, thanks a lot.

    You can oppose my opinion on firearms, knives, how to make jerky, the best coffee, the best outdoor writer the best car truck or dog breed, but never, ever, ever.....

    doubt my advice when asking about the hong!

    Bet you wish you had deleted the post now, don't you?

    The best part is that WildThang wants to know if it enlightens your path to enrichment! Consider yourself enlightened! The enrichment part is still up for interpretation!!!!

    Well all I can say now is that I am sincerely sorry my survival brothers and sisters. But I have paid in earnest for asking this question! After beeing up most of the night chugging Pepto Bismol, having hongmares and waking up screaming, I now know for sure that asking this question was a grave mistake and not to be taken lightly.
    This thread should either be deleted, or made a sticky with a large red warning attached from the surgeon general so no other innocent members will ask this most heinous question ever again! If you guys choose to ban me, I guess I wouldn't blame you, but remember, I knew not the dangers of what I ask:EEK2:

    MAking it a sticky even with a warning will create an unholy curiosity the "Force of The H***" in its unknown and un recognized state can get a hold on people. Wildthang its doesn't mean that you are weak in any sense but you must admit the mystery Hong had pulled you in. It has become one of the great questions on this forum along with but not limited to "Im going into the wilderness to survive whats the best ____________ fill in the blank. remember never look the H*** straight in ...... The .........ah........ Just back away slowly and pray.

    I will not not not fear the H***, I will not allow the H*** control my mind.

    I must go play bagpipe to scare away the evil now.
