this may be a good thing to put into your tour op for those who wanna do it but dont know where to start due to inexperience etc
anyway didnt wanna post in wolf's thread just to answer your "old days" question so ill just do it here: we didnt exactly talk about pokemon all the time or anything, it was just consistently less offtopic than it can be now (though recently it hasnt been that bad tbh). also when we did go offtopic it generally wasnt about nica's yeast infection or something. hnnnng. we sure liked to make fun of each other though. hopefully thats a good enough answer, if im being honest its been a solid two or three years and i frankly dont remember it like i once did. maybe i idealize it to some degree cause of that, im sure you could make a case that i do.
