I was 2 badges away from Eagle and not one of them was this easy… 😩
The hardest thing was selling our disgusting popcorn while the Girl Scouts were selling their bomb-ass cookies. Like, why? We stood no chance… 😔
chipvision? a song contest?
Girl scouts got updated with Gacha mechanics
That would go so hard on a metal battle vest.
I would put one on mine.
But did you do complete the chippy hike?
Stolen valor strikes again.
No >:(
Girl scouts (and girl guides) often have patches to commemorate a fun event. The ones they earn for work go on the front of their vest and have specific criteria for earning them, but are usually more generic in appearance or don’t have details about it on the patch.
This type of patch is likely for the youngest age group (4-5) and is meant to be more of a fun patch. I would also guess that the troop is in more of an urban area so there’s not much in the way of a very local, small kid friendly hike.
I just learned this the other day when I was joking with my wife that my daughter and their troop got badges for things like breathing and being near things. She told me the back is for whatever, and that when they become Brownies next year, that comes to an end.
I support it all though. Gets the girls together, they do occasionally do things that resemble community service, and I eat too many goddamn cookies.
I would imagine it’s a way to familiarize the kids to the incentive structure of the badges when they are still too young to be focused.
I found a page about how to run the activity and I think it’s a pretty nice idea for a younger or multi-level troop: https://www.scouts.org.uk/activities/chippy-hike/
Adulthood is when no one rewards you for eating chips 😔
Chips is reward
Here you go 🏆
I know it is very krool
Is there a Chippy Doordash badge?
Clever. I approve.
Honestly, the fact that she made an effort to go somewhere she didn’t have to was a win.
Do they have a kebab badge?
Only in Germany.
The kebab sign used to have a eastern European mystical connotation before the Germans misappropriated it.

They’re cultured over there.
Preferably for delivery.
Once you get there, though…
This could only be the UK or Ireland.
Can confirm. We did this and I loved it.
A hike does suggest a bit more than nearby tbf

I’ve done that! Where is my badge?
You gotta fight his daughter for it.
OK. That little brat doesn’t stand a chance!

Isn’t chippy a not so good slang term for women?
In American, yes, it means promiscuous young woman or prostitute. In Canadian it means irritable or in ice hockey, overly aggressive playing. In British it means fried potato slice selling establishment (stand or shop).
Not that I’ve traveled all over the US, but I’ve never heard the term “chippy” used that way here. Where is it used?
It is archaic usage. Think the roaring 20s.
Is it older or younger than “flapper?”
I’ve only heard it from Silent Generation folks, or people being sarcastically old timey as they playfully criticize younger women. I’m in California.
Where in America? I don’t doubt it, I’m just not familiar with it. Is it possibly something that has fallen out as a slang term or incredibly regional?
It’s a silent generation thing. It’s only used now if you’re being sarcastically old timey.
In British it also mean carpenter.
It’s super old-timey
