Watching some saps suffer out a forced bivy at the lip of a serac under an avalanche-ready cornice, huddled under their rope bag and anchored to a tent stake? Woooo!

What are you on about, there, mate? It came to mind in reference to your misquoted info -- blame it on the source. But in general, it tends to be true. If a person sends a route, they are most likely to give themselves full credit. But if a person fails on a route they know they should be able to send, do they simply say: - I'm just not good enough, I have failed. Or are they more likely to say: - The holds were greasy - My shoes just aren't sticking today - That damn barking dog made me lose my concentration - There wasn't enough slack - you pulled me off, you bastard! - It's too damn cold/sunny/rainy/icy/windy - That chicken I ate last night just didn't agree with me - Damn sucker chalk! - My ankle/knee/elbow/shoulder/finger/thumb is bothering me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
