Georgia the Explorer

I never know what to say when I’m making loud noises to scare away bears in the forest. So I’ve come up with a great idea: I just yell out lines from movies every few minutes.

“The truth? You can’t handle the truth!”
*3 minutes later*
“It is a race! I am winning!”
*3 minutes later*
“You talkin’ to me?”

@fuzzyduck we sing Misfits songs really loudly when riding after dark on bike paths where we have to dodge big piles of bear fewmets. It's worked so far...

@Loukas @fuzzyduck That would scare me away from you too.

@fuzzyduck
It's a good opportunity to sing songs at the top of your lungs that you wouldn't sing in public.

However, if you're hiking near a cliff, it's bad luck to sing "Free Falling."

@geobeck 😆 I sing country music. I’m not allowed to at home

I have an aversion to country music. Not so much because of the music itself, but last year I lost my wife, my dog, and my pickup truck, so I've kind of lived the genre.

@fuzzyduck @tanyakaroli This is a tip @NarrelleMHarris will appreciate, and a step up from "Hey bear!"

@timrichards @fuzzyduck @tanyakaroli

An excellent idea. The lines I will shout in future are:

"No matter where you go, there you are!"

*wait three minutes*

"Here's looking at you, kid!"

*wait three minutes*

"There's no place like home; there's NO place like HOME."

@timrichards @tanyakaroli @NarrelleMHarris I’ve always felt ‘Hey Bear’ sounds like an invitation 😅

@tanyakaroli @timrichards @fuzzyduck I used the “Hey Bear” technique when I encountered a bull on Dartmoor. “Hey Cow” and a timid song of “please don’t kill me Mr Cow” meant that I also did not surprise a bull.
