Geek_the_Greek Posted January 30, 2003 Share Posted January 30, 2003 Ok, Dru, I admire your honesty! I read that article too, thought it was totally lame, but, you know, I read the whole thing... I think it's funny that you can get the whole Base Camp/Hot flashes thing online now (tech tips too). You actually have to pay for the stories though. You'd think with a setup like that there's be more stories - more incentive for people to pay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr_Flash_Amazing Posted January 30, 2003 Share Posted January 30, 2003 How about stories about climbs and trips that the author actually experienced? Matt Samet's article on Eldo was good, the article on Chamonix was good, Twight on Denali was good, but the "photo essays" of Graham, Parady, and Kinder and their drivel from their several-week long roadtrip was LAME. Ugh. That was unbearable. All the gangsta-speak and bitchy infighting ... the photos were sick, though. And all the sick-hard sending and onsighting is inspiring, despite the jingus format.

cracked Posted January 30, 2003 Share Posted January 30, 2003 The photos were cool, but the 'article' was despicable. And did anybody read the editorial about european .coms? It was pretty hilarious. The guy's arguments were at best irrelevant and at worst outright lies. The guy never took ECON 200 when we was in college. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dru Posted January 30, 2003 Author Share Posted January 30, 2003 What was wrong with the aricle? It sounded real to me. "I need to send. send send send." "Man Im hating these guys videoing me. I had to do this 13d again and again." "I gotta find some new slang yo. everyone's getting jiggy now." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
