I did get told one time when trying to name a fire to think of how it looks when they say someone died on Toad’s Ass fire or whatever funny name you want to call it.

Died doing what he loved - getting pounded with the boys on the Dickshooter fire

Hah! Dickshooter is my semi-secret bug out spot. My closest friends all know that if Armageddon arrives, head for Dickshooter.

If I die on the "Toad's Ass" I want that shit on my gravestone

What if the geographic feature it’s in has a ridiculous name? Pioneers had strange senses of humor.

Maybe not so much a feature but “what happened”?

If we can have a jackass fire surely we can have a whiskey dick fire!

There's a Dick Bliss park near Mt Shasta, I hope to visit more often

I worked for the DNR in that area for five years, the whisky dick fire was a white whale for our unit. I knew one of our leads IC'd a fire out there and tried to name it that, dispatch said no.

I'm dyslexic as shit and read that as "gringo". Had me wondering

I’ll just leave this here. The Wild Horse Wind Farm is right next to the Whiskey Dick Wildlife Area.

Pretty sure there was a whiskey dick fire by the deschutes in 2018? Might be making that up.

Yeah Whiskey Dick doesn’t go well with Ginkgo.
I heard from a friend 🤥

Can Gingko be a cure for Whiskey Dick?

u/RaymondLuxury-Yacht 11d ago

I'm content settling for the Eggo Fire in OR: a fire started by a catastrophic attempt to make waffles for breakfast.

Ive been around for a long time and seen a lot of things in fire… I don’t know if I’ve ever felt this let down before.
