You Know You're A Treeplanter If:

-"give 'er" is a part of your vocabulary
-you can "screef," "cream out," and "flag"
-the dirt on your hand is never coming out
-one hand is always cleaner than the other
-water, duct tape, deet, and food are your best friends
-you nap at any opportunity
-it is possible for you to nap in a vehicle lacking suspension, as it drives over bumps that would be considered horrendous by city standards
-you are dirty, so dirty
-you smell bad, and so does everyone around you
-you are willing to 'hook up' with someone as dirty as you are
-smoking bongs with your boss is a normal activity
-random drug paraphenalia in shared spaces bothers no one
-you decorate yourself with flagging tape
-your main conversational topics include soil, rocks, and duff
-you've been known to hang out in swamps for hours at a time
-"casing" is something you strive to avoid
-you know what the terms "slash pile," "no-see-em's," and "red rot" mean
-you work the longest days of all of your friends, yet still feel the most priviledged
-your avowed enemies include: tics, tent caterpillars, black flies, and mosquitos
-your hair hasn't been washed in weeks, and you're thinking it looks pretty good
-"kife" is used daily to describe your land
-you don't mind wearing the same outfit for a week (day AND night)
