Coincidence, I think! :o
I accidently got into a muddy field, enjoyed the feeling of it and saught to get deeper and deeper.

I love the muddy feeling.

I already loved as a child to playing in the mud
and that has simply never changed.

Earlier we played Fusball, ticking, and Frisbee.
Today I like that too, but not only.

I saw a Babar cartoon when I was younger that involved quicksand, and the thought of it looked amazing. I haven't had much of an opportunity to deal with it, especially any deep stuff, though... >.>;

I live next to some woods with deep mud patches. The mud is nice and thick like Peanut Butter. I actually sank under twice.

Under? Oh wow...

I love the feeling of mud.

I bet you do, as do I. You've piqued my intrigue, though...did you go under standing upright?

Yes I did. I really had to struggle to sink.

That's awesome. Major props to you. I have to admit I'm jealous.

Lucky.

Not really sure... I liked mud and other sticky substances since I was a kid... and I'm 32 now. I could try to explain it but it might be TMI.

What got me into it was actually Scrapheap Challenge. Seeing junk-built vehicles plowing through the muck and triumphing over it was inspirational and uplifting. What I like best about mud is when people or machines manage to conquer it as opposed to sinking.

Psychological compensation for a battered childhood. Playing "victim/did" without involving any other people.

That's a good question, and one I'm not entirely sure how to answer.
Only thing I can imagine is an answer similar to Da-Ti's further up - a childhood interest that I never grew out of. *glances at his video game collection* Apparently I never grew up.

Mmmm when I was 12, stepping in some and feelin funny. Remember seeing a teacher in outdoor ed step in some too and sink up fast and was like oooh damn. And a classmate sinking in soft red clay and getting just totally messy

I reckon you should detail that all, sometime. It sounds like an interesting story.

Hehh they all were, might hafta sometime ;)

I played in some mud before when I was in New Jersey. We were having fun with a hose and we both had fun.
