Missing Discussion of Outer Space Slowpokery

[selkirk]

 

I don't mind someone being reasonable, asking to pass, and respectfully climbing through, not putting my ass in danger. Some asshole trys to blow through, clipping my pro, and being a jackass? He's going to find himself tied off to a big fat hex with a prusik

 

Afterall this isn't France thank god

[Dru]

Ya, cause no one in France uses hexes!

[selkirk]

Yeah, but that #10 is great for beating people with! Much less expensive and unwieldy than a cam.

[Dru]

And the clanking sound as it knocks against your #9 is just as good as hanging a "n00b bell" around your neck!

[selkirk]

aaah, I love the sound of cowbells in the morning, sounds like, climbing.

Nobody Climbs with the use of that stuff, they just fall with the use of that stuff. (other than aiding)

i saw this film about bachar last night, and there was a funny bit where they interview croft and he describes how he "accidentally" kicked some guy in the head on half dome while passing, while him and bachar were making the first one day link up back when.

 

so always let peter pass or you might get a chuck norris to the dome.
