Finally someone said these things out loud...
Jerry's Top Ten expedition BS
- Faking an accomplishment
- Claiming something is a first, when it's not
- Pretending that an expedition is all about something socially relevant
- Claiming that an expedition proves something it doesn't
- Hiding the fact that an expedition is guided
- Making an expedition sound harder than it is
- Motivational speaking
- Telling your audience that all it takes to live this life is the courage to follow your dreams, when you're sitting on a trust fund
- Doing one or two expeditions, then retiring and affecting the pose of an elder statesman
- Erecting plaques in the wilderness in honor of your own expedition
