In reply to: In reply to: If a Petzl Tibloc is up for the award I'm off to K-mart. Will coaxal cable or 12 ga. extension cord run smoothly through my ATC? For get the key-chain biners. I'll tie shoe strings right to all them nice shinney botls. Make sure you ground yourself, or there could be static buildup.
Hadn't thought of that. I'll pound a ground-rod in before I lower off.... and as a bonus the copper wire can be my redundant anchor.

Nomination in the Gumby Innovation Category (Florida) to Renhoek:
In reply to: In reply to: Hi, I'm curious if anyone knows how you would go about melting C4 climbing rubber. Any info. such as the rubbers melting point, or a technique on how to melt it without burning it would be great. In reply to: out of plain curiosity alone, why? In reply to: Thinking that since climbing steep rock is sometimes easier (for me) barefoot, I could somehow get rubber on each individual toe so that I could still still grip with them. Specifically I was thinking rubber on toe socks which would be secured to the foot... I don't know how but simply wearing the socks probably would be too loose of a fit.

I'm not sure if this qualifies as gumbism, but it definitely deserves some attention. In the Allow-Me-to-Introduce-Myself-I-Am-a-Clue category, badass for his obstinate inability to comprehend the concept of Assholes.
In reply to: I'll shutup when you start climbing hard. Till then you are the child. Besides how smart are you if you spend all of your time doing something to not even be good at it?
He came close to an epiphany here...
In reply to: Why does everyone think i'm 13, i'll have to go check my profile.
Slid sideways here...
In reply to: ...I think even the moderators hate me...
And when informed that...
In reply to: At this point in time you could post the exact text of Shakespeare's personal journal and people would still read, "I am an asshole. Worship me."
Responded with...
In reply to: I spent a lot of time at crowders hidden wall sending the 12's and 13's because it is close to where I live and it's the only place to improve around here. As for practice wall it does suck. Everything except for Six Finger Man. If you have never done black flag direct which you haven't then you don't know how quality it actually is. No matter what opinions you people state the simple fact is to climb harder than 5.13 you have to go to at least chattanooga or lexington. Climbing sick slab just doesn't make you good on anything but sick slab. I train endurance and power. And as for my online name, bite me, I will be one of the best climbers in the world so deal with it.
You should all know that there's a chance his condition is genetic in nature. So, in conclusion, perhaps not true gumbism, but worthy of recognition? You decide.

Badass is definitely building up a body of work. A supposed 5.13 sport climber who won't use a grigri?

As evidenced by his sycophantic sister Sarah, there is likely a genetic component involved, and given that these two will probably breed -- in all likelihood with each other -- the trait will almost sure be passed on.

Speaking of people who didn't last long - ikellen. This guy finally left the site. If you read his work in depth his ignorance was rather astounding. He went from wanting beta on every piece of gear for a 40' low angle 5.1 scramble trad lead to wanting to lead tuolumne 5.9 in about 1 month without actually climbing in between I'll bet. My favorite was his gear list for climbing in the Owen's River Gorge:
In reply to: - Harnesses - Shoes - Chalk and Chalk bags - 60 meter rope - (2) belay devices with pear locking biners - 12-15 quickdraws - (2) 4 foot lengths of 1" tubular webbing (misc rigging + cleaning) - (2) 6 foot lengths of 1" tubular webbing (misc anchoring for top roping, if needed) - (4) 8 foot lengths of 1" tubular webbing (long anchors) - (4) 36" runners - (2-4) screw gates (JUST IN CASE) - (6) Locking Biners for anchoring/rigging - Ropebag (?) - Crashpad (for bouldering at Happys, Buttermilks, etc.)
One respone was this:
In reply to: I'd take two 36" runners out in order to carry a bit more food. You'll need a stove to melt water. Belay jacket and dog should also be on the list. You don't, I repeat, you do not need a rope bag. Just use your emergency bivvy sack as a rope bag, which should also be on the list. Do you really think that only one rope will cut it? nope, get two, and a trail line. a trail line must be under 7mm or else it falls into a different catagory of line. please bring leaver biners, a bolt kit, and an american flag to leave at the summit as well. Happy sporting!
Brilliant as he is he responds:
In reply to: Why the second rope? We're not doing any multi-pitch, just single pitch sport.

"attach people"? Attach them with what, a big staple?
Imagine that, 20-some climbers all jammed up under a gi-normous stapler.

I do not believe that I have read a thread as funny as this original thread, not counting the cyber-sex thread because it was a link.
BTW, can someone provide me with the link to the assface comment? I just read what was highlighted on this thread and I almost spit whatever bolus I had onto my computer.

Agreed. If we got Brundige and Nolan14 to rope up, we would then have the World's dumbest clothesline.

Actually, I heard a rumor that he was involved in an assault in a bookstore in Tennessee. He got pretty messed up, I think. Not sure about the details.
