The list: You aren't doing bonsai unless you have:

90) You aren't doing bonsai unless you can't eat dinner at your dining room table because it's full of tropical trees brought in for the winter.

91) You aren't doing bonsai unless your prunings end up as pre-bonsai projects instead of compost.

92) You aren't doing bonsai unless you sell your pre-bonsai at the local farmers market to make room for more trees.
 
93) you ain’t doing bonsai until you have looked at your children and worried about their future development decided to wire them.

94) you ain’t doing bonsai unless you have killed more trees than a Colorado wild fire.

95) you ain’t doing bonsai until you have tried to grow anything but rocks in 120f+

96) you ain’t doing bonsai unless the topics of cut paste, perched water tables, and soil make you ready to fight.

97) you ain’t doing bonsai unless you have had rodents style your trees.

98) you ain’t doing bonsai unless vacations include holding trees on your lap coming home because the rest of the car looks like the Amazon rainforest.

99) you ain’t doing bonsai unless all the bookmarks on your browser are either to articles about bonsai or various suppliers.

100) you ain’t doing bonsai unless you admit that after 25 years, your are really still a noob.
 
100) :cool:
:cool: :cool:

I admitted it after 6 years, I have to wait a little still in order to make real bonsai :cool:
 
97) you ain’t doing bonsai unless you have had rodents style your trees.
Me and the squirrels are negotiating on styling decisions. We may be coming to an understanding. They have veto power over tree viability. I have veto power over squirrel viability. We're reaching detente after taking months to recognize the mutually assured destruction.
 
102- you aren’t doing bonsai until you have trapped and deported every squirrel in a two block radius. Ask me how I know this one. 😎
I can go with the "trapped" part but the "deported" part ain't gonna happen with Cajuns. Does that mean all Cajuns cannot be doing bonsai?

93) sometimes I wonder if I wired my children a little too tight and then think about their emotional wire scars.
 
103) You aren't doing bonsai unless winter is like hell, but frozen. :rolleyes:
 
106) You aren't doing bonsai unless you abseil down a waterfall to dig out a bonsai tree your karate master planted many, many years ago (for some reason you thought this was a good idea & he would be happy : / )
You then get forced to hand the tree over to some jerks who snap it in half. You then have to explain to your master what an idiot you have been and try to save the tree. Along, the way you have to enter a karate tournament to beat up the jerks. Later, you replant the tree at the waterfall and learn some valuable life lessons.

107) You aren't doing bonsai unless you see a full size tree with incredible ramification and you wish you had someone near you who could understand you saying "check out the ramification on that tree!!".
 
108) You aren't doing bonsai unless you have stuck a finger in a hole made in a tree's substrate and felt something moving.
