I've been wondering this for years: do you think the ski free protagonist having green boots is a morbid reference to the famous unidentified corpse on Everest who is also wearing (and called) green boots, or is it just coincidence?

skifree was 1991, while green boots is heavily believed to be one of the fatalities of the 1996 disaster

that would've been a really morbid reference thoughhh

in some ways this is even weirder

something else was niggling at my memory so i just looked it up and Everest Green Boots is also wearing blue overalls/snow pants. not sure about his sweater since he’s wearing an orange jacket but if it’s hot pink under there, well,

anyway climbing everest if you’re not actually Nepalese is cringe and fail. if you’re going up there to clean up the truly staggering amount of trash and human waste that’s been left behind that’s cool but fuck you if you’re a tourist imo

oh they're based in Seattle. i can't explain exactly why that explains it but that explains it
