new Rules to Live By

[pigsteak]

as it seems many are clearly devoid of even common decency in their interactions with the outside world, this thread will be devoted to laying out the hard and fast rules of life.

1- If you are bald(ing) on top a ponytail or mullet in back is laughable.
2- if you are overweight, do not tuck in your tshirt.
3- yes, your dog at the crag IS part of the problem.
4-apparently "hipster" is a cool term right now...may I turn your attention to the route named yadda yadda yadda....exactly.
5-running shoes are meant for, well....running.
6-stay off the damn phone when in a public place or driving. it doesnt make you look important to intently stare at a tiny screen and show off your opposable thumbs.
7-blue jeans are not and never will be chic at the crag. and the 80's roll on the bottom hem is just another fashion disaster.
8-permadraws, stick clips, tick lists, and spraying to anyone who will listen...just don't do it.
9-get a job and pay your own way thru life. no one owes you anything.
10-it truly is sad to think how many people played the last big lottery and who vicariously watched a bunch of teenagers play basketball for three months. does your life really suck that bad?


you are welcome.

I'm glad tax season is over. It was getting pretty stale around here.

I'd like to give a +1 to number 6.

If we are at a restaurant and I don't hear some type of tone or beep and you pull out your phone and look at it, I'm leaving. This compulsive checking for new texts, apps, email, tweets, status updates, blog comments, etc, etc... is out of control.

shoot I'd even go as far as to say phones should be turned completely off when in the company of real living breathing people. except for the once in a lifetime emergency of course.

Nice, C2C

As for #2: would you really prefer to see their ass crack?

#8... No stick clips? Aren't you developers bolting routes now like everyone has a stick clip? First bolt 16 ft off the deck and second at 20 ft.

c2c..I don't make up the laws of the universe, they just are.

#9 would end our overcrowding problems pretty quickly.
