In Da CUB

It had been a slow start to the week.

The usual calls with people yapping on about what was in their gift or the art of the possible.

I sniffed and pulled my phone out for a bit of a Hive browsing. Not too much going on, @steevc was in trending fondling something long and wooden. That was nice, That's what I liked to see on Hive, the men-fellows out there shamelessly caressing their instruments on camera. I watched it, liked it, smacked it with a vote and moved on.

Everyone seemed to be blithering on about Cubs. Which was not normal. In fact, it was damn unusual. Most people go to Hive to talk about Hive. That's what Hive'ing is all about.

But no, post after post about Cubs and Cubbing it. Everyone was patting themselves on the back for stroking Cubs and yielding or some such nonsense.

My lip curled up in distaste.

Animals? Worse yet, baby animals? I was willing to put up with a bit of bush on a lady but I drew the line at fur.

No sir. Not for me.

One of them in particular caught my eye. @cryptoandcoffee muttering something about being attacked and defeated by a baby lion.

What the fuck was going on? I knew this man, there was no way he was going down under a bundle of fur.

With a sigh, I clicked into his post.

Oh, not animals. It was the new LEO thing. LEOFinance had gone full DeFi and were squirting money out at people for farming.

Fuck sake. Would this DeFi shit never end? I had managed to avoid it like the plague so far despite missing out on all of the massive profits that separated the Gods from mere men.

I had a look at the linked instructions.

I instantly and metaphorically vomited and shat myself at the same time.

Do what with the what? BEP20? Metamask? Dens? Farms?

And don't get me started on BUSD?!!? What the fuck was that?

And Simba...

How did you get involved in all of this? Where did it all go wrong?

Fuck it. I moved over to discord to see what kind of knuckleheads were chatting over there.

IT WAS WORSE!

Discord was aflame with talk of free internet money and the fools that were missing out on all the free lunches known to man.

It made me feel ancient. I had no idea where to begin. I knew the site was here - https://cubdefi.com/

But was that it? Just fucking go to the site, hit connect with MetaMask and throw some Internet money in a Den/Farm?

I checked @cryptoandcoffee's profile to find his post about failing. What the fuck, he had put out another post in which he had conquered it?!?! How the fuck had he managed that? He was ninety-odd years old for christ's sake?!?

There was nothing for it.

I was going to have to join in...


Some hours later, chewing a long stalk of grass, I sauntered into the lounge where the Good Lady was sitting. She looked up as I came in.

Hey, weren't you clean-shaven this morning?

She stared at my now fully bearded chin.

And why are you wearing a cowboy hat and chewing a long bit of grass?

She seemed puzzled.

I snorted and started undoing my belt. She didn't seem to realise.

I'm a farmer now.

Sort:  

@steevc was in trending fondling something long and wooden.

Well I had to go and look after that click bait!

I'm going to have to try and figure out this CUB business too, aren't I...

I like a bit of clickbait!!

I think it is found to be mandatory to be cubbing it in future! Our poor children, pressed into cub service without knowing what it was like to be free!!

Can't miss what you never knew, so they will know no different.

Very true. My kids are already flabbergasted at the idea of a world before smartphones and computers. I wonder what their kids will be mystified by?

and the fools that were missing out on all the free lunches known to man.

Yeah, well, whatever. At least I still have my awesome drawing skills.

You can draw cubs!!! Funk these crazy internet cubs! They don't have anything on reality!!

That drawing looks NFT material!!

I knew this one would be good and waited til I was having lunch outside, so my sniggering would piss the loud Germans off next door.

One of us, one of us! @galenkp is next, the original knucklehead 😎

And well done @steevc! Been singing and strumming for years when wood fondling was the answer to trending 😊

Anything that pisses of the Germans so they say! :OD

He can do it! The Galen chap, not that Steevc, he is on film doing it, over and over like some kind of meat machine! At least he has cracked the formula now!

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

So @galenkp is not farming! Please get him a wheelbarrow! He will need it collect all the internet money!

I'm more the dim-whitted farm hand than the farmer.

Sure, Sure! Your younger brother put us to shame in farming!! I am so impressed!

I'd like to say I taught him everything he knows...But clearly not. 🥴

I even have a wood-fondling community :) All fellow maple manglers welcome.

I fear farming of this nature is far too complex for a knucklehead like me.

It is not that difficult once you know steps. You have the highlands and we have the bush here so nothing wrong with our wild vegetation. 90 year old with a full mop of non grey hair you cheeky fucker lol. It's all good though as a cub a day keeps me wanting more cubs.

Heheheheh, I originally had that bit as 70 year old and thought it wasn't cheeky enough :OD

More cubs for the troops! Its fun watching it tick up. We will be a fully dledged DeFi army now!

Hey, all the other boys are picking on me because my rep is 25? Can you help?

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

25, ouch. That sucks ass. It must be shit to be you. :OD

I'll fondle my wood if I want to!

The posts I've seen about this CUB stuff seem to be bullshit buzzword bingo (BBB?). I need the idiot's guide. I'm not one for throwing money at things I know little about. I buy some $Hive, but I know what that can do for me.

Maybe I'll get a slice of the action in an airdrop, but I'll not let FOMO get me down.

Now get orf moi land!

I see ya, flaunting your timber on the webs!!! Filthy!!!

It is a lot easier than it seems in the end. I am hoping for some mad gainz but will probably just plough them back into hive. Or retirement, whichever comes first!! :0D

Farming is the way to go my friend; we got to grow our own food! Your Queen and Govt. both refused to feed you! You grow your food now...or go hungry!

I remember in the old days, it read all forage this and hunt that

No more, for today we farm!!

Can you tell I'm excited about actually getting off my butt and doing it! :0D

Do we have to be vegetarian though? I do like my meat..

Hell no, I like my beef too much and for once I am not being naughty with the words!

I hear you! Same here. I like my cows dead, cooked medium!

Medium rare for me although bizarrely I have found myself gravitating to the rarer side of medium rare. Next thing you know they will be blue!!

Was that supposed to be funny? Hope that wasn't supposed to be funny. I didn't laugh once!

I didn't laugh either. I gnashed my teeth and muttered about varmints a lot.

One day, one day I will laugh again!!!

Haha, this was pretty funny! I can't imagine @cryptoandcoffee getting bested by a cub either. I am glad that you got it sorted out. It really does seem to be pretty lucrative right now. I am hesitant about how sustainable it is going to be, but there are others who are not. I am sure they know more than I do. The whole process is a little intimidating at first, but once you get the steps down it is pretty simple. At least that is what I found! Good luck tending the crops!

He would never be beaten by those damned baby cats, he would come out of it wearing a shiny new cat-skin jacket!!

It is surprisingly easy in the end but seems so complex before your dip your toe in.

I'm gonna tend like a mad thing!!

Yihoaaaa! Stampede, rawhide and spittin some chewed tobacco in the pot with smashed potatoes!

Wait, what, undoing yer belt...? Must be the raw natural state of a farmer's mind. Damn, now I wanna be farmin! Already got the beard.

Be carefull milking a lion though, they's not very milkable. Those who tried have never been heard from again.

Good luck farmin!

I think it's it comes to milking a lion them I can truly say that I am out!!

I thought the belt looseningc was suitably farmy, hehe!

Now where's my spittoon!

Hahaa, if you beat them, join them. It was a pain to figure out.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

It was a pain!! Although now looking back it was remarkably easy but it's always ready to say that after the fact.

They need a proper newbs guide!

I'm a farmer now.

Cub Farmer - each cub projected to be at $7 !

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I think I can live with that!! :0D

Hey, weren't you clean-shaven this morning?

She stared at my now fully bearded chin.

RoFL!

And the above is bad enough when it's late at night and everyone is in bed but worse (and more painful) when it's daytime and you almost laugh and then choke when you remember your partner who is working from home is in a video meeting thingi behind you XD

Lol. At least you are considerate of that fact. I am constantly having to put myself on mute and yelling at mine to stop doing whatever noisy thing she is doing!!!

Hey welcome to DA CUb (awesome title by the way)

What i did was to read all the docs. Even though those docs were detailed as hell i was confused. Then i asked the stupidest questions in discord and managed to stake!! Then i made a guide after it in order to help others and ofc to remember the process better :P

i made this "guide" yesterday i don't know if this will help you out

Cheers man, I will have a look. I figured it out in the end but it did seem a bit daunting!

DA Cub rules!! :OD

I'm sharting out Cubs over here as well. Luckily I was already on the Binance Smart Chain so I was able to jump on pretty quick but I didn't see it until it had been out for 8 hours. I wish I would have got in right when it launched but I was still in day one so that is good.

It really expands the entire ecosystem a lot which is awesome.

I wish I had gotten in right at the start too. I have seen screenshots with crazy APRs on em! Will be more ready for the next one.

Good to see you still about MR B!

You were geared up for Leo and Cub this whole time with your profile thumbnail!

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Lol, it looks that way. I must have seen the signs in the skies or some such shite! :OD

Hello @meesterboom , I already missed your occurrences ha ha ha, the good lady is very observant, you shaved in the morning and you already had a beard ha ha ha, it was your contribution to the appearance of a farmer is what I think

It was indeed. Dont all farmers have beards?! If they don't, they should! :OD

It's true but it gives them the necessary extra ha, ha, ha, watch the movies almost everyone has a beard and suspenders to hold up their pants.
Take care of yourself :)

Hahaha, they do. It's gonna be my new look. If you can still buy them fancy suspenders these days!!

Hahahahah modern farming happens now on the internet, less of getting your hands dirty. I saw the post but oh my it lost me, so complicated😳
!ENGAGE 20

It looks complicated but it really isnt! It all depends how much time you can bear spending in front of a computer though! :OD

Ah too much screen time is not for me

Oh no, really?? You are over here too? lol kidding, man. Great to see you over here, I just joined literally today.

Hey dude! Long time no see!

Yeah, this is the place to be at, glad to have you onboard :0)

Hahaha I know right? Been white awhile!

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

It's all so tempting... 'must resist', looks too good to be true, 'remembers Hey Hey Hey..wasasasasasa...' need I say more? I might still have a small go though...

I think it is worth a small go. It is fun. I think the massive profits might have gone or are going to the giant stackers who for in at the very first nanosecond!

Yeah... I’m already Losing buckets of money.... Cub dropped from $7 to $5 since I bought .... so I guess I am definitely Hodling all my cub for the next 5 years... oh well ... many millionaires were made last night

Ah, you bought cub!! I steered clear as I assumed that it would plunger in value as soon as the airdrop came out. It will hopefully spoke back up and think of all that passive income from staking!

Well I swapped my Leo for bleo then swapped for Cub.... luckily only 30 Leo worth.

I would say for some fun yeah, but it's where the herd are going. 'never follow the herd'

Always for fun!! It's a bit of a learning experience too. Worth it for fun and the potential loss of internet fun money! :0)

I have already lost buckets and buckets of money .... can never sell now. I bought very very high

I rarely buy the initial launch of a token as they usually nose dive. Sucks though, but the Leo team are quite with it. I don't think it will lose all it's value. You might be going full lambo soon!

Hot wheels lambo .

Thank you for your engagement on this post, you have recieved ENGAGE tokens.

Like a real farmer I have already lost my shirt... what’s new ?

Stake stake stake!

I can’t afford steak anymore.

Thanks for continuing to make Hive awesome.

Your welcome!
