Could there be a woman in the world more bitter than you? You are a Hater.

Pete, you're out of line here. I know Mimi. I hang out with her, share meals with her, party with her, and climb with her. I also disagree with her about some things. But she is no hater, and whatever else she may be, she sure isn't bitter.

For whatever reason, she doesn't like the way some guys did some climb. Big deal. You probably don't like the way some guys did some climb. Does that make you bitter? Or a hater?

Really, the whole thing seems silly. El Cap was an important climbing arena forty or fifty years ago, but it's relevance has faded. People tie on their ropes and head up onto it and that's great. You enjoy leisurely outings with all the comforts of home, others blitz it in a few hours, while still others go up and down their ropes and work on their redpoint skills. You all probably enjoy your own approach and you all have your personal quirks about its history. But as long as you're having a good time (and carrying your excreta over the top with you), then who gives a sh#t?

GDavis, see how sexist you are. If I was a guy, I doubt you'd be calling me bitter. But then women with strong opinions about things like the protrayal of their breasts also seem to throw you off.

Ghost,

Mimi's hatred of Mark and Richard absolutely permeates her posts here on McTopo. If you disagree, please read what she has written again and again. Her bitterness even overrides her ability to comprehend what Mark and Richard have written here, where they have precisely [and excruciatingly] explained what they did.

It didn't sound like modern A3 based on what Ammon told me, and it felt rather harder to me, too!

Werner, you always make me laugh!

Pretty sure you are the only women I've ever berated on supertopo, ever. You can scroll through my history and see my numerous beefs with men. Men are very often bitter, it is not a feminine word, just like a Bitch can be a man and a dickhead can be a woman.



Not everything is a sex issue. Besides, who are you? I assume you are a woman? I have my name AND my face, I climb regularly with many members of this community and post trip reports of my sorry ass ascents for others to enjoy. Should everyone do this? No. But someone who sits behind an anonymous avatar and talks sh#t to climbers who are out there enjoying things makes me not like very much your attitude.

PtPP couldn't toprope an A3? have you been up there? No?

I hate it when people comment on the difficulty of climbs they never got on.

GDavis, I love it when you berate me.

Have you been up on wos? You certainly have an opinion about it. The modern A3 rating came from someone who did. And Pass-the-Peepee doesn't count.

4th of July and we have more fireworks here than what's going on outside.

Well, not quite, but it sounded good for a moment.

Mimi, I love you, but simmer down. These boys don't get it.

Perhaps we should have a pool, with bets on things like:

1. Whether Ammon and Kait will get to the top or not.
2. What date and time they'll get there.
3. What they'll report about the route - bold masterpiece or chipfest bolt ladder.
4. How many posts this thread will have before it's over.

The proceeds could go to the YCA, to buy toilet paper for the FaceLift or something.

It would be unsporting to bet on whether some posters will have apoplexy during the ascent.
