When someone beats you to a four way stop; then, instead of continuing on immediately after a complete stop, they wait until you are completely stopped. Like they don't trust you to stop. Once you have made a complete stop, then, finally they go. This can waste 2-10 seconds of my valyooball time!!!! Next time I'm just gonna just barrel right on through the stop sign. This will make everyone happy. I will save 10 seconds and the other dunderhead will feel smug that they were smart enough to predict my dangerous behavior and avoid me!

Stick around 'til 10 m'kay? I could use some beers!! but won't be able to make it there until about 9:15+

...of the human persuasion anyway

Anybody notice how Harry Pi and Sexchoc dissappeared at THE SAME TIME!!!! I'd pair Trask with Mtngoat, they deserve each other "Eat balls asseyes" "Based on your usually anti-homosexual stance, it makes me wonder how you can endorse eating balls. Unless perhaps you are mistaking me for Minx or Daisy" "That Daisy can come to papa and sit on my gearshift" "How can you say sit on my gearshift when you obviously drive an automatic transmission auto?" "MtnGoat you're boring the hell out of me you numbnutz. You remind me of the pencil necks we used to duct tape and shove in the toilets back in high school" "Sorry but in this country there is no right to be entertained, however the police forces are rightly empowered to prevent citizens from being unwilling doused in feces" "Ill drop some feces on you if you don't shut up and start sucking."

Hey Bozo! You forgot to whine about trolling

Assuming "here" is Western Washington Index Washington Pass Squamish (a more CA-scale drive but worth it) Leavenworth* Tieton* Vantage (marginal but dry)* Darrington's cool too, but it's a sport area mostly. * actually on East side of crest so usually drier weather, but longer drive (shorter if you're based on the east side though)

of course What about banned ones?

ya know iam j/k

dope!

...and cold shuts are a rod of metal bent to form a ring, sometimes they are welded at the joint. This is a bit different than a forged hanger

CBS, 1. If you rap off of a huge rat's nest of slings of which you can't even tell which sling is connected where, there is also the possibility of one sling failing and thus shock-loading the remaining bunch. 2. I'm not sure whether you were purposely trying to skew his meaning or if you just don't know the difference, but there is a big difference between cold shuts and Metolius rap bolts. 3. He is not criticizing people for doing what they consider is safer. He is criticizing what he considers is people's ignorance about proper safety issues.

Agreed, perhaps less obtuse, but less alliteration, than my answer. Here are some places where I have found BOMBER pinky tricam placements: Crux move around decomposing chockstone on East Face of the Tooth Start of second crux of Godzilla (that weird-sized crack in the RFC above the lieback flake). Perhaps this one is only "good" rather than BOMBER. First placement before heading out onto the Heart of the Country splitter crack. Start of Dem Bones in Cochise Stronghold (passive, "stopper" placement mode). Any more anyone? Note that all of these placements are from good stances. I'd hate to have to place one of those things when hanging one-handed off a strenous stance.

Well, that's just because us rude and competitive Mountie-haters don't have any friends.

FIERCE F*CKING FIDDLE FACTOR

Anybody got any more-specific directions than "downtown"? I'd surely 'preciate it.

Wasn't me. But here's a big heapin' helpin' of right back at you anyway.

Yeah! That Wedgewood place! (separate room? )!

If you're mostly worried about biting it climbing or driving to and from climbing you might consider looking into accidental death and dismemberment insurance. That's much more affordable. I had no problems with my insurance wrt climbing, but I'm a GIANT group policy (Washington State public employees).

Whitehorse is a major skeleton of mine. Five attempts! Three strikes on the Lone Tree Pass route (once got to the summit block but didn't have a rope and it was looking too exposed to just cross the bottomless moat to say nothing of the crumbly looking rock). Another two attempts toward the South Ridge. Made it up into Buckeye Basin once. Don't know if it's really haunting me though as I haven't gone back there the last two years.
