Post by piplnr65656 »

Anyone ever heard of someone calling urban exploration dorkin? This older guy I work with said 35 years ago that is what they called it.

That's what my ex-girlfriend used to call me playing Dungeons and Dragons. Weird.

Well... except spelunking makes sense. The study of caves is called "speleology," formations are called "speleothems," etc.
