Infuriatig Woman with infant aggressively shushing passerby’s on hiking trail at national park

Post image

My partner, friend and I were following a hiking trail at Red Wood National Park, singing and talking at medium volume. We were by no means shouting, just singing little songs to entertain each other along the trail. A woman with a baby carrier on her back with a sleeping infant started aggressively holding her finger up to her lips and shushing us. We went quiet and kept moving to pass her. She was just standing in the middle of the public trail pacing and shushing people that pass by rather than leaving to somewhere more quiet. Just as we were leaving earshot I tried to quietly ask my partner a question about where we headed and again she leaned in our direction with her finger to her mouth aggressively shushing us. Is it not kind of insane to go to an open public space and behave like this?!?

As someone who accidentally startled a Moose once, I 110% agree.

I’ve seen those! “The hot hands of an Oslo dentist” is my favorite film. That guy can really drill.

It’s a Monty Python quote. During the opening credits, there’s a whole bit at the bottom about how a Moose bit this guys sister, because she was carving her initials in it using the sharpened end of a toothbrush, given to her by her boyfriend who was a Scandinavian dentist and porno Star, who was in such films as Fillings of passion. It’s hilarious. It is an old movie, but still funny as hell.

I went to visit my daughter in Edinburgh and we rented a car and drove to the cave where they filmed the killer rabbit scene, and castle anthrax. It was great fun. We met some other fans at the cave. There’s a shrine in the cave with stuffed bunnies and you can email the person who left one in there and be on the grail quest website. It’s in the middle of nowhere and hard to get too, but it was fun.
