    True or False

    Or found on a church message board: TONIGHT'S SERMON: WHAT IS HELL? COME TO OUR CHOIR RECITAL AT 7. No shit, this was actually posted.

    Sisu, shut your ass. Christ, what a bigoted redneck. STFU.
  3. I'd draw a line. I like sport climbing, but we should lay down some lines. No retrobolting old lines, without the consent of the FA party. No bolts in the mountains. No overbolting (ie Flag). Leave the trad bastions alone, but don't chop all sport crags. This ain't too hard, is it? Oh, and if a rap anchor at trad area preserves trees, etc, leave it be.
  4. I'm just curious, I'm not intending to chop any routes. But how do you chop a glue-in? Chisel the head off, then drill out the stud? Retrosaurus? Texplorer? Dwayner?

    Whatever you say, cupcake.
  6. I figured that I would piss someone off. But that's how I feel about the topic, due to what I've experienced.
  7. Yet more aggro idiot spew - you really need to go get laid and quit bringing your poisoned reactionary shit to this board, Sphincter. Actually, this isn't aggro idiot spew. Too many people use threats of suicide to manipulate friends and family. Don't try to argue this point, it's true.

    Size matters?

    BUT if you wanna do technical stuff on the 5 day tour you'll need a big rope, and a big rack, and rock shoes, etc, which will take up space and weight. I've got a 4000ci and a 2500. I use whatever is appropriate.
  9. If the dumbfucks want to kill themselves, let em. They serve no useful purpose except clog the mental hospitals.
  10. Maybe he's innocent and he was framed.
  11. I was dreaming of the day when I could say that to you. Also, you are a pathetic joke. I'm starting the Anti-Sphinx Society Out U Turd (ASS-OUT) today. It's good to know I've got such esteemed status around here.
  12. That horse is hung like TRASK!
  13. How do you greet Necro? "Dipshit!"
  14. Oh, and at Smith one time, I watched a german couple climb Zebra-Zion. They made fun of Americans with huge racks (no, the other kind), then proceeded to climb. The guy led the second pitch, placing little pro since he didn't have much, and as he climbed, he proceeded to pull many of his nuts out, zipper-style. In this case, I'll be happier to load up on enough pro to lead safely, instead of emulating the aforementioned nutcase.
  15. Yes, but usually it's the other way round. On the other hand, sometimes I've bailed people out, them nearly getting sunstroke since they didn't have a hat, or getting dehydrated since the didn't have any water, or getting hypothermic because they wore cotton and got wet.

    hey sphinks, you're right. same with italians or irish in NY. same with Poles in Chicago. same with russians. that's very natural - you tend to stick to what's familiar (even if it's shitty). It's kind of strange to me when people in this country tend to think they are the center of the universe I didn't quite mean it that way, the groups I was referring to are far more extreme than other ethnic groups. Maybe it's too broad a generalization. Another example, this time Germans. The family is planning to live in the US for a few years, then more back to Germany. So they say, verbatim "why should I learn Engish? I'm just going to leave." That kind of attitude is what I'm referring to.
