I used to be a gym rat. Now I'm retired. Mountains are way cooler.

We all loved your shirtless physique

And thanks to your stadium voice we all heard

that you wanted to "go ropes tomorrow Brah!"

But when you invited your similarly unclothed friend

to "take a jump dude" from the top

well my friend . . .

I hope your plans to "just lead the Grand this year"

go well and I'm sorry but if you think the last pitch is "way the toughest I've heard"

the whole gym was thinking

about the Sword of Damocles hanging above your head

I didn't want to know you but you gave me no choice

And so dirtasterixeater

why does it always seem that a person's worth as a climber

or maybe just to me

Is inversely proportional

to the distance their voice carries

And how much you FUCKINPISSMEOFFF

 

Discuss. Bonus for relating to conscientious objectivism and how the whole gym should have smacked him

I used to be a gym rat.

 

We could tell

 

Mountains are way cooler.

 

And now, so are you.

Maybe you should just chill the fuck out and have a nice warm slice of Canadian Bacon.

ALLEZ!!!! Or whatever the hell that means... but if your buddy is trying real, real hard and needs encouragment scream it as loud as you can... especially if I'm trying to concentrate myself at that very time.

ALLEZ!!!! Or whatever the hell that means...

It means, roughly, "let's go!" or "Send, Dude!"

ALLEZ!!!! Or whatever the hell that means...

It means, roughly, "let's go!" or "Send, Dude!"

 

It means 'go' not lets go. It is the formal or multiple 'you' form. Let's go would be like using nous form "allons"

I was going to say something until I saw the little vid-clip beneath scotts name. Now I can't think of anything but....nice, very nice.
