What? Are you saying "excuses make you weak"?

No, I'm saying excuses ensure that you remain weak.

Who cares if us lame trad climbers think trad is harder? Who cares if we make excuses? Who cares if we remain weak? Who cares if you mind your own business? Who cares if you shit a 2' 7" long large diameter turd after 3 days of constipation and the toilet won't flush? i'm just asking.

Apparently the trad climbers do. Otherwise I wouldn't hear the excuse every other fuckin day...

so true..it is this grand illusion that lives on and on.

as I always say , it gives traddies an excuse to remain sucking at their so called chosen genre.

doooooods, climbing 5.7's and siiiiick 5.8's in mid August with your three noob friends who've never climbed does not make you a climber or an AMGA guide. Just makes you someone scared to really try. you'll find the majority of trad climbers revel in their mediocrity, like it is akin to winning a purple heart.

so how do you fucknuts decide whos accepting their suck and who is just doing what they want??

how do any of us decide.

and does it really matter.

and piggie......everyone knows bolting routes is the last step before stopping climbing. "oh, im doing soooo much for people, i'm totally selfless." PRAISE ME PRAISE ME PRAISE ME!!!! all hail the dipshit with the drill,

Their the ones spraying about their latest TRAD 10a with only 3 takes on CAMS, which was so much harder than AWOL because it was TRAD. They are easy to spot. If you weren't drunk all the time you'd see them.

who said that???

i feel you. 10a is 10a especially when its 8+. i think once you get over the mental part of the gear then you do start to realize it is all about the same. the moves, some techniques, little extra hang out time, and other stuff might be a little different but yes its all the same.

but on the other end of that pendelum are the tool sacks that believe that their 25th try on some over-ticked 12a is WAYYYY more bad ass then someone doing their first 8,9,10,etc on gear. on top of it they (the bullshit bolt only bitch) feel that some number (be it dick or route[maybe thats why some of them are such bitches, small dicks]) makes them better or more of a man than someone else.

fuck man, last time i checked its all hard and you can die on any of it.
but yeah, the number you die on is more important.
