Ponderosa Posted July 21, 2009 Share Posted July 21, 2009 How kind of you to provide Raindawg and Pope with new material for their ceremonial circle-jerk rituals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EWolfe Posted July 21, 2009 Author Share Posted July 21, 2009 I'm an equal-opportunity kind of guy! Pope's not that far my senior, but I withered in the face of his awesome powers of curmudgeon years ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JosephH Posted July 21, 2009 Share Posted July 21, 2009 Let me pick up the slack. Men don't 'routeset' except possibly while overcome by deep metrosexual crises when they can also be infected with boltsetting. These are consumptive vainglorious diseases typically affecting males in their late teens and often persisting until the victim reaches their early thirties when the rapid onset of infants, increased appetite, and the rapidly fading glory of youth sends them into remission. There is no vaccine or cure for route and boltsetting which have reached pandemic levels and retain a high recidivism rate for those surviving rehab and family obligations. Once infected the victim is a carrier for life and must be constantly pricked and vigil for signs of an outbreak. Symptoms include rabid betafoam, bankable acclaim, last harrahs, and cocked halos of communal beneficence. The only defense against this affliction is not sharing chalk, thoroughly disinfecting your hands after visiting a gym, and coughing into your sleeve while announcing route ratings.

JosephH Posted July 21, 2009 Share Posted July 21, 2009 Fortunately, that masterpiece didn't require any 'routesetting' as it was already there - all it needed was a few points of protection so you guys could climb it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G-spotter Posted July 21, 2009 Share Posted July 21, 2009 Aretes that are so close to corners you can stem over for a rest = not a masterpiece. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

G-spotter Posted July 21, 2009 Share Posted July 21, 2009 You are not making a case as to why I would want to drive 6 hours to climb a less-than-classic-line at an overbolted locals-only crag? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why climb at any crag? You have a rotten attitude.... Tell you what……how about this. Come on down….if you send this route first try on lead or top rope. I will not post on cc.com for 6 months.

eldiente Posted July 21, 2009 Share Posted July 21, 2009 That route is indeed soft. Although there is one move in there that might stump you on the first try. Unless of course your belayer is spraying beta for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
