Translation of Hash Commandments

For Those Bright Stars Out There Among Us
  1. Wednesday is for hashing; DO NOT use or bring drugs to a hash event, DO NOT show up or become too drunk at the hash.

  2. Listen to those who have been around a while, they have invested a lot of effort keeping this thing going and want to make sure it is around well into the future. Shut the fuck up during the circle.

  3. DO NOT get pissed-off or piss-off others. If you can’t laugh at yourself and tolerate others, stay the hell away from the hash. What goes on at the hash, stays at the hash; what goes on in real life stays the hell in real life.

  4. Avoid private property unless you have permission, make sure there is enough beer and water for all, get in a car…you get in the circle.

  5. Be excellent to your fellow hasher, let them know where you are and which way you are going, DO NOT Zen or follow Can’t Talk, and learn a fucking song or two. Don't blow through a decision point before the trail is marked for the stragglers.

  6. Give us all forewarning of shiggy-filled, dog-unfriendly, A-B, water trails.

  7. Teach your virgins our traditions; it’s your ass if they screw up before being named.

  8. Don’t try to hook-up with someone unless they show an interest, but also remember it is not sexual harassment if you enjoy it.

  9. Clean up after yourself in the bar and on trail.

  10. If you can’t follow the commandments or are constantly annoying others then fuck off until you can play well with the rest of the children.
