Respect fire guy

I’m the one obsessively scavenging for wood around the camp site to keep that wood pile healthy.
Yeah, you look like you're the type alright.

I didn't know it was a racial trait.

There's something really cathartic about placing shit in a firepit and just watching it burn away.
" ...some men aren't looking for anything logical, like money. They can't be bought, bullied, reasoned, or negotiated with. Some men just want to watch the wood burn "

Wait... I'm white!?

I absolutely adore keeping the fire going. I was a white man for decades so i'm not dodging the allegations. I have never been camping where i was not the last person awake and always keeping the fire just right until all the wood was gone.
It's all about the air flow. Too much and everything burns too quickly in a roaring furnace, too little and you have no light and not enough heat. By constantly adjusting the logs you can maintain the proper air flow to keep everything just right. Rotating a log to present fresh wood to an eager flame here. Squeezing two logs a little closer to reduce the oxygen and trim things up there. A proper fire adjusting stick (and a backup) is crucial.
Give me a stack of seasoned wood, a k-bar, a magnesium fire starter and a comfy camp chair and i'm in heaven from the time the sun sets until the wood runs out.

I feel like someone's gotta ask:
Are you no longer a white man? -

Are you no longer a white man?Too much soot from staying near the fire

Yeah, like why does race need to be involved here? Fire should be for everyone to enjoy.

I got the largest kelly kettle because loads of friends said they would be interested in using it as a group. This was like 3 or so years ago and since I got it absolutely no one has been interested in actually going outside. So I recently bought the smallest one now as I am only ever using it on my own, may as well get something easier to carry.
Shame that I don't know anyone else interested in it though, don't even have to go camping, just a day/afternoon trip or even just sit on the beach, but even that doesn't get any interest.

You then wake up to a cozy hut instead of spending the first two hours awake freezing in your sleeping bags.

It's all good until you experience a fire where there's two of them.
