Sport Climbers - overly competitive rich whiny fuckers
Trad Climbers - Wanna be athletes that smell like shit and have no muscles
Boulderers - little kids with high strength to weight but no endurance and are scared of heights.
Mountaineers - Suicidal egotistial fucks who like to pay 40K to walk up a snowy hill while breathing from bottled oxygen and walking past dying men.

Your turn.

bolters...dudes pretending to be climbers, but afraid to ever get on the classic testpieces because they always have a new proj they are red tagging.

guidebook authors...abused as children, so looking for affirmation and glory in old age.

outdoor shop owners....wanna be dirtbags who pretend to disdain american commerce while taking our hard earned cash for runny eggs.

sport photographers....hiding behind the lense for fear that their lack of athletic ability will be exposed.

damn, this is a mean thread...and fun.

Sport Climbers - number chasin faggots who can't carry heavy packs and think gear pulls out if you fall on it.

Trad Climbers - Ethical midgets who can't climb athletically so to compensate they carry heavy packs and play with gear.

Boulderers - Enduranceless idiots who've somehow convinced themselves that giant crashpads are less cumbersome than trad packs.

Mountaineers - Suit and tie jackasses who can't do any of the above, so they go where its cold enough to provide excuses for their poor fitness.

White, Climbing Rappers - enough said.

Beat me to it, except I was gonna say white almost-rapper wannabe climbers...

Actually, you'll have to uncheck the shirt. I don't wear it anymore, but I replaced it with a miniature lunchbox that I carry at all times. You'll see it, don't worry...
