there are these constant reminders that, above anything else, men are horny animals

Wow someone needs to go to sexual harassment training - I feel soooo dirty after reading what you wrote wally. I think I may need to seek out therapy...

John,

I made those comments as (the earlier one about wally) because wallys posts tend to occur right after mine and could be viewed as a response to mine. In which case they are quite ironic.

I have tried (although I sure as hell ain't perfect) to avoid the name calling until the last little bit. My patience has growing weary.

Whats really funny though is that none of this actually matters. Peeps are still gonna name routes as they see fit (hell this may have pushed some towards crass sexist names.) Yet us tacoites continue to spew about something that is a vacuous problem.

PRANCING UNICORN HAS NOT BEEN USED AS A ROUTE NAME YET. Consider that open source and have at it.

FACT: Your level of caring about this penny ante bullshit is inversely proportional to your number and/or frequency of FAs and your climbing ability.

There isn't any way for me to indicate the level of difficulty of the mental health issues that I deal with daily. Yet I'm a pussy if I don't like vulgar names.

Nope. You're missing the point. IT'S YOUR CHOICE TO IGNORE THINGS YOU DON'T LIKE.

This doesn't make you a pussy. What makes "you" a pussy (not directly) is when you whine like a little bitch about something that has little to no value whatsoever.

You're intact.

T'S YOUR CHOICE TO IGNORE THINGS YOU DON'T LIKE.

you can't ignore a name of a route because you need the name in order to communicate with others.

Hey.. you know that route, the one named with the vulgarities. You mean.. blah blah blah.. no.. not that one. Oh.. you mean.. blah blah blah.. No not that one.. the other one.

You can't ignore it. You have to use it.

Kev complained about censorship as being a form of force, yet naming something crass forces everyone to come to the same level of crassness in order to communicate.



If thats whining, well then, f*#k you.

Well, let's try this again. Not only can you ignore the name of the route, you can ignore the route all together.

Somehow I don't think that there is a limited number of routes out there with "nice" names.

Ignore the ones you don't like, and move on to something else. Somehow I don't believe you'll run out of anything to climb anytime soon.

I struggle every day to avoid the urge to drink too much craft beer, but the bastards just keep opening new breweries and brewing more excellent beer. Don't they understand what they are doing to me?!?!

Spider tends to come across to me as insulting to. Sort of Lofty superiority

That ain't Spider. He's a very good dude. Go back and read what he wrote in the most positive light possible.

I've got an idea (okay this is only meant as a joke). If you don't like the route names that are outside why don't you just go climb at the gym!

Don't give John too much sh#t. Although some of us may disagree with him he's been totally NOT a dick in this discussion.

Wally (who = lolli?) well that's another story.

Elcapin,

Tendon was 90% torn at the attachment point - got it operated on a few years back and now it's 100% solid. That said I've probably drilled less than 50 bolts since then. I've been doing a lot of diving with sharks (corrupting nature :) Thanks for asking.

FACT: kev sucks at spelling!

EDIT FACT 2: I find the post that locker passed FAR MORE disturbing than crass route names.
