virgin "outdooor hotel" fan vs chad homelessness enjoyer

[–] MacNCheezus@lemmy.today 12 points 9 months ago

Man, you gotta be a true chad in order to enjoy homelessness

[–] Neato@ttrpg.network 26 points 9 months ago (1 children)

That's camping with all the shitty parts and a really nice cot.

Wind, rain, dust, falling shit, bugs, animals, etc. You can get a similar atmosphere by having a tent and opening the vent flaps. Or like, sleeping under a tarp to mitigate rain if you really want that outdoorsy feel. I knew a guy who slept in a hammock on nice nights but I fear the skeeters.

That is indeed the joke.

This would only be cool if you're somehow guaranteed zero people/predators or cameras in a large enough radius that you won't ever be seen or attacked by an animal. Fucking under the stars on a real bed sounds pretty cool. But there is a building in the background. I would be too paranoid that someone is watching with a telescope

I'd just start beating off while staring straight at it with an expressionless face.

You could have walls but no roof

[–] tryptaminev@feddit.de 8 points 9 months ago

To make it even crazier, you could have a roof that is transparent and you could open. Tada you get as much outdoor as you want, without being soaked wet by the thunderstorm.

That was a joke Art installation AFAIK a decade back.

Swiss here, no it isn't. Here's a (german) overview of a few "openair hotels": https://www.stilpalast.ch/travel/specials/schlafen-unter-freiem-himmel-7144

[–] nigh7y@lemmy.ml 3 points 9 months ago (1 children)

So... you get room service? Like... how far do these workers stay from these rooms? Can they see you pee and take a dump? Where do you clean yourself? Do you get a refund if it rains? Is a simple hotel room somewhere nearby cheaper than this gourmet outdoor experience?

So many questions....

[–] iso@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 9 months ago

little late but I kinda feel like responding:

The beds are outside in the countryside, usually on fields that are owned by the farmers who offer the "rooms", so they're a bit secluded.

You're brought there by said farmer, he shows you around a bit, shows the fridge, etc. Then he leaves again.

If you need any room service, you just call up the farmer and he comes back to bring it.

No idea about toilets, but I think you'd also have to walk back to the farm. Same if it rains. Pretty much all of those openair hotels are ran by those kinds of farmers anyway, who were used to hotel guests as they've been offering "sleeping in the hey" kinda things since years, so for them, it's pretty much the same, except being a little (sometimes a lot) further away and being logistically a bit more challenging.

Life is slowly turning into a joke, and it's becoming less funny every time it's retold.

Did you know that the weather in the mountains can change rapidly and without warnings?

[–] MacNCheezus@lemmy.today 6 points 9 months ago

Sleeping outdoor without shelter > camping > glamping > glamping outdoor without shelter

Whew, we've come quite far.

[–] cmgvd3lw@discuss.tchncs.de 10 points 9 months ago (3 children)

If you ever slept outside, you know how good it can be. Fresh air, cold winds. Only and only if nothing goes wrong.

[–] Annoyed_Crabby@monyet.cc 5 points 9 months ago

Fresh air, cold winds, and hypothermia.

There was this bamboo treehouse that my wife and I slept in on a vacation. It was really nice and relaxing. We plan to go back soon.

Someone has a fundamental misunderstanding about what a room is...

[–] MacNCheezus@lemmy.today 2 points 9 months ago
[–] MrFunnyMoustache@lemmy.ml 5 points 9 months ago

I thought it was the onion, but I searched and found it... $340 a night.

Had to double check the date to make sure I wasn't in a 2 month long coma and that it wasn't April fools.

[–] NigelFrobisher@aussie.zone 3 points 9 months ago

You wouldn’t even get the bed for a million pounds in central London.

[–] HerrLewakaas@feddit.de 1 points 9 months ago

Done that for free
