- This bizarre, lawless land in the California desert is inhabited by drug addicts, eccentrics, army vets, hippies and just plain old weirdos. Slab City is referred to by its residents as "the last free place in America."

Snake dude went from eccentric to cooky to batshit insane cannibal in like 2 minutes. I like that, I respect that.
it's like actually watching an episode of trailer park boys with different characters
Love it or hate it, this is a necessary part of society. There needs to be places like this for the people that need places like this. Everybody has to be somewhere.

This is what every foreigner thinks Americans are like.
Man that really escalated quickly, when it went from drinking beers in a hot spring to, “Hey take a ride with me”, to score meth.
This is where you get abducted by aliens
“It’s called a cruisin cooler” has 3 warm looking beers in it
The irony is that these people rely on government support.
why was snake dudes first example "whered you hide the children"
this is a perfect mix of california culture. homelessness, drug addiction, transients living on the fringe of society. slab city has everything california is native to.
all i can say is... borderlands
The snake guy was Mr. Tuttle, my 7th grade Biology teacher. He was always a little off but a few years after I graduated we heard that he had a total meltdown and had moved out to the desert.
Pulled into Slab City when I was 19 years old after being on the road for about 2 1/2 weeks. Met some really cool folks, some interesting folks, and some folks that gave me a bad feeling in my stomach. Left that night on account of the folks that gave me a bad feeling in my stomach and drove to Phoenix. Great experience, I’ll never forget it.
Watch out for 3 knife man
That first dude is pretty damn charismatic.
