inPSA: check trail junction signs before trusting your map app
Man, I get where you're coming from, but I've been on that exact stretch of the OHT and a logging road can dead-end real quick, especially after a rain when the ruts wash out and the brush closes in. I ended up having to backtrack through some nasty briars once because I trusted a "shortcut" on the map that wasn't on the ground anymore. Fifteen minutes of pacing yourself is a pain, but it beats spending two hours bushwhacking in the dark, trust me on that one. I do agree the phone is the first thing to ignore, but that compass trick only works if you actually stop and take a bearing, which most folks skip when they're tired.

inThe Venmo request that sat unread for 6 months
The "$87 for March and April" part got me. I once had a guy owe me $40 for a parking ticket from a concert we went to together. He finally paid me back two years later, but only because his mom saw my mom at a wedding and asked about it. By then I'd already mentally written it off as a tax on our friendship.
