Well, do I have an event for you!
Homo Climbtastic is once again hosting its annual convention in the New River Gorge, July 26-29, 2012, for LGBTQ climbers and those who love them.
I can hear the whimpers of your discontent already. "But it's gonna be hot and humid and I'm gonna slip off my routes wah wah wah wah wah!" Well CRY ME A RIVER. Also, our convention is not for you anyway. Our climbers go climbing whether there's snow, rain, or untold quantities of goat poop (holla HCR!). I may skip out to catch the season finale of Nikita. BUT EVERY OTHER TIME.
We have all kinds of people. We got straight people, young people, people who call themselves old people, lipstick lesbians, chapstick lesbians, butch lesbians, straight women who get mistaken for lesbians cause they talk like butch lesbians, we got your "masc" gays, femme gays, in between gays, trash-talking gays, twinky gays, bear gays, "i refuse to be labeled but i'm obviously an emo-gay" gays, bi people, gender queer people, trans people, and people who don't believe in sexual orientation or gender.
But most importantly, we like the climbings.
So go over to http://www.homoclimbtastic.com and sign up. Pack up your tent, roll up your mattress, empty out your pee bottle, and drive a few hours east. It's a pretty drive, and even though it's hot, it ain't as hot as the Red. Also there's Summersville Lake and we bring floaties.
Activities may include:
-Partying at the Vandalian until everyone starts questioning Porter's sexuality
-Name dropping
-Strip-chubby-bunny
-Downgrading routes
-Prostituting ourselves for the LRC topo (you try to find Unshackled on your own!)
So once again, http://www.homoclimbtastic.com has all the details for registration. There's also a Facebook event page at http://www.facebook.com/events/273880166021303/ and a Facebook group at http://www.facebook.com/groups/hc.climbers/ if you want to stalk us on FaceSpace.
Lastly, I have a very important request--in order to garner publicity for this event, it is VITALLY IMPORTANT that you continue bumping this thread to the top by TROLLING THE #$%@ OUT OF US. I'm looking at YOU, C2C! You are our only hope! Well, actually you're not, what with that guy with the papa smurf avatar, but you seem to be the best! Thus, to get that ball rolling, C2C is a jerkface and I'm already offended by all the things he's already just thought of saying about us.
Although maybe he's a homo and he's been in the club for years and just hasn't revealed himself to us for fear we'd disown him like we did to Brett Easton Ellis. (You try living life as an author when the book wasn't as good as the movie!)
See you there.
