a few years back, i saw someone in the shell station with a harness on. i wanted to ask him if he went or was going climbing just to hear the story.
anti...you can wear a few of my cloths i left over your place the other night. this may disguise you enought to be a douche bag.

i wear my harness under my clothes so i'm always ready to go on belay and nobody knows i have it on.
my absolut favorite were the cats that wore harness and helmet all the time; climbing, hanging out, sex, and inside the restaurant. well one of the guys is sitting inside with his helmet on, decides he's safe and takes it off. about that time dario comes over to get a backpack down with the pole. well he fudges it and the backpack falls and brains this kid. hilarious.

Saw a group at Muir a couple of weeks ago. Maybe 6 people, getting their harnesses on for the hike to the crag.
One guy was wearing chartreuse lycra with tighty whities visible underneath.
If I only had my camera.
From the title of this thread, did you see the same person Scin?

(To no one in particular, but to address an unpleasant trend in the mindsets of the you-know-who-you-ares:)
im so sick of all of this gumby bashing bullshit. stop being dicks--you are giving my beloved red a bad name. no--scratch that. you are giving all climbers a bad name.
oh? what's that? you started climbing at the red WAY before them? you think you're entitled to climb there moreso than someone you don't even know? you were a gumby once, too. only myself and one other person were never gumbies.
so quit it already. i lose respect for people when they use the word 'gumby' or talk shit about strangers at the crag. just like how you lose respect for yourselves when i onsight your projects.
oh no i did'ent!
oh yes i did!
eat it!

yea, and i was made fun of. now it's my turn, so quit bein' a buzzkill billy.
this is the best i've got so far.
last summer, pistol ridge. all i'll say is:
1) a 5.7
2) tennis shoes
3) fingerless/knuckleless gloves
4) hexes
5) stick clip in tow, dangling 2 feet below leader
6) out of control pump at bolt 3 leads to out control fall which leads to a 45 min. siege of the route
bam!
