see, this is the problem: you have a solipsistic view of climbing, and that's why it seems people have the frustration they have with you. you project your personal internal perception outwards, universalizing it into a broad ethical maxim: "THE Climbing Experience has been demeaned, I Proclaim!" (Not A climbing experience, or MY climbing experience, but THE (universal) climbing experience!). Children have this perspective (and certain clinically diagnosed (for what it's worth) sociopaths), usually outgrowing it and developing the ability to see the world from differing perspectives (ideally, i'd say). the ego doesn't like this perspective very much, because its platform for grandstanding and complete individuation is removed. it can be very threatening to see one's perspective and opinions as somehow not the "final word", but only different angles on a broad almost infinite continuum. it's much easier to simply rail mono-syllabically "bolts BAD!" or "communism BAD!" (courtesy of one of our other demagogues), than to juggle multiple viewpoints and their attendant relationships.

wonders never cease. alpha-ruskie-boi actually said something of substance, AND i agree with it. lack of alkohol in blood-stream?

nema za shcho, suka. hey alpha, me no speak ruskie. mut suomee juttelen. juo poika juo!

thanks, alpha. you did look pretty slim in that vid.

lard ass indeed thanks Mom!! yeah i know. that's why i'm waiting for rumr to email me skinny prescriptions. btw, why you concerned about hangers? i thought you were into power hiking?

alpha ruskie boi kkk shows his skillz. [video:youtube]n0YpMHZoeCc&hl

oh my gosh that is so CUTE!

yes indeed, stopping posting altogether is what it would take for you to keep up. maybe.

dude, go get'er.

Tell that to Dean Potters face. fanboi.

so let's get the facts: how many bolts have broken on you, and what were they? i've never had a bolt break, and indeed my sporto 180 lb ass has fallen on lotso lotso bolts. although: i was hanging on a bolt a coupla weeks ago, looked up, and noticed the hanger was held on by a half turn of the nut. literally. the fall would have put me in a bad bad place. very scary. so, check your hangers.

you better learn his preferences if you expect to get anywhere close to anal warts and gonorrhea with him: scotch. bottles and bottles of scotch.

you guys are so cute together! nothing like gonorrhea and anal warts for a couple of guys to bond over.

ah yes, another instance where "lick sack" and "dumb shit" were the extent of your replies to anything you disagreed with. hey i think your bottle's calling; you're getting into multi-syllable words ruskie boy.

and how would this "false" claim of FA affect one exactly?

But then of course, you have no fucking idea how stupid or not that might or might not be so it's a pretty mute point beyond you simply talking out your ass... i doubt he's really the type that would appreciate anything but a liquor-induced lobotomy. which it seems as though he has permanently given himself. trying to have any discourse with him is impossible; single sentence platitudes are about the extent of his cognitive repertoire.

hey joe, why don't you use chalk?

this is where you lose me, when you start to define what "climbing" is. "real" climbing? "entertainment" climbing? seems silly to me. i'll just go "climbing" and let others worry about labeling it.

damns.... looks nasonish.

actually, i asked about your misgivings regarding the "ruinous path" you speak of.

well that's partially true, but very specific mechanics allowed the situation to evolve devolve to crisis stage. really good article in latest issue of vanity fair about AIG worth checking out, if yer interested. yer telling me peeps haven't changed their lives "one iota"? you might have missed the news memo about consumer spending savings rates etc etc etc. "business as usual"? there has been no "business as usual", and would have been even less so if banks and manufacturing had gone under. see above. if not, then specify your misgivings about the "ruinous path". please no monosyllabic insults.

so ummmm this pic: where izzit? public info or keepin it lowlow? looks maybe really good?

yeayea, i've been meaning to check out his crag. wednesdays are the days, it seems.

vs sport climbing, where success is always assured. heh, i'll remember that next time i tie in on project. i'll be sure to get it!
