    Stop it, stop it, stop it...

    Would all of you new WB purchasers please stop with the "Loook what I got," threads.
    Every single day it seems like 2 or 3 new owner posts.

    It is making it really hard for us mere mortals to resist these wonderful creations.

    You see, I love my new ENO DN. It has new whoopie slings, soft shackles, nice tree huggers, an adjustable ridgeline, a few hanging prussics, and an OK tarp. It is comfortable and works great. It has only 1 full night of use, during which I slept like a baby. But already I long for a BB. I feel unfaithful to my ENO. I really have to make it through at least 1 season before I can justify a WBBB, Don't I? Don't I?
    And all of these posts - make it harder and harder to stay away from [email protected]. I am afraid that one late night, I just might give in and hit that pretty little orange check out button.

    So please, please, do me and my ENO a favor and cut it out, or at least tone it down. Maybe there is one tiny, tiny thing that you kinda sorta don't like - throw that out there for us. I really don't want to have to join you.

    I really don't like that my wbbb refuses to cook me breakfast in the morning. Anyone else having this issue? Other than that I find no flaws in it.

    thanks....

    And I see the superfly in your profile. I think I hear my eno (and back account) sobbing.

    Jason,
    We all defend our purchasing decisions. If the fawning of the WB crowd really bothers you, ignore it.

    I was just informed by Brandon that my brand spankin' new WBBB 1.1 Dbl will be shipping out tomorrow morning. If only I had it for my trip this weekend...sigh! Haha I didnt have the money, but I did it anyways and I haven't had any buyers remorse yet.

    it really does seem like this is the only area where someone feels the need to tell everyone they bought one. I dont mind it but its very strange
    Dale Gribble: I'm thinking, "new hammock." For me, laying and swaying in a hammock is like a steady morphine drip without the risk of renal failure.

    Randy : yea but just remember yer roots and where ya come from....you got Hennessy in yer blood son......

    I have no clue why I do it but there is this sense of excitement while waiting for the hammock especially since it is my first one. I feel like a kid at Christmas and Santa is on the way. I post here because everyone at work is already fed up listening to me go on about it.
