best one yet!!
I would say the worst is the people who play music….On speakers….Loud.
Indeed!
I imagine that the “atmosphere” of this episode was part of “bad habits” and that Andrew really does not smoke and pound booze the way it was portrayed in the segment!
Hello – No, I’ve never smoked – it just seemed like a funny background for a “Bad Habits” video.

Last one ” never post hole the skin track” interpretation: leave your dog home and take it for the ” lactic acid” release walk after the drive home. This prevents an early life dog knee issue. Also keeps the turds from smearing on your neighbors skins.
Thank you!
What about skiing all the way back to the trailhead on the last run, leaving behind avalanche debris and partners to assume you were buried? Or was that covered in the Mountain Mishaps Slideshow? Glass Houses. 😉
#11 The MOST worse of all, never take a leak on the skin track!!! Who does that anyway?
