Margarita to anonymous young climber who was damning God because he couldn't get past the first bolt.

Sadly I wasn't there to hear this. Someone said this to a friend while she was climbing (the beta was to stem).

"Just spread your legs and trust the rubber."

After a friend sent this guy's project, he asked the guy what the name of the route was (as there was no guidebook) The guy replied, "I'll tell you for 20 bucks!"

good one. gotta love the sexual innuendos/metaphors at the crag being that the options are almost endless.
the other day while describing his anxiety while belaying a trad lead (the leader kept fiddlin' w/ gear) my buddy says, "and i was thinking, quit playin' with it and just put it in your mouth!". he didn't catch it 'til we all started laughing.
