Utarded is as Utarded does

Look if you want to do utarded things, fine. just don't post your sorry attempt at a reel rock film tour video blurb anywhere i will stumble upon it AND especially don't let me see your utarded ass video pre-morning coffee, post blacksabbath alarm clock.

"Hey! Look how cool me and my friends are."
If they were really "extreme athletes" they would have incorporated the rock canyon chair into the SWING of things.

Countdown to thread deletion...3...2...

By the way, this is old news, and using the word "Utard" doesn't make you cool.

That was pretty cool and a well edited video. I like the aerial footage.

Mr. Nevius, I will cry myself to sleep tonight because of that comment.
As one who was born/raised Utarded and have ZERO intentions of being thought of as "cool" by the climbing community, let me just reiterate: If you use wilderness for shameless self promotion, I will bash/ridicule you and your friends.
That includes using words I find as extremely puny, like Utard or Utarded or provo.

That cepta-copter (?) looks sweet, and the jump looks like bunches of fun. I'm also curious why they included random footage from a BASE jump off of the Tombstone in the middle.

But my main curiosity is, Why are you generating views for a video that bothers you so much?

:-)

Okay, carry on.

I missed the Utard' era..is this a slam against something Utah''arded..or something like that? Residents of Utah? I'm totally out of the circle on this word.

The video is good in general. Too much grimacing though.

That's Sketchy Andy in that pack and he's actually been in reel rock.

Have you been living under a rock? Ancient history. Right, Austin?

That video is way more entertaining than most of the stuff I see from Reel Rock.

And remind me please, how are climbing videos not "using wilderness for shameless self promotion."

I hardly think these people earn the title "Utard" while there's a bunch of fat Boy Scouts pushing over rock formations in Goblin Valley, and dirt bikers ripping up the San Rafael Swell. Those are the genuine Utards. Don't take that from them.

I believe the term has more of a historical reference. The lineage of many young Mormons today can be linked to a relatively isolated group of folks. The practice of polygamy among their ancestors only exacerbated the problem. This condition led to males from outside the population being unwelcome.

Homozygosity can increase the chances of offspring being affected by recessive or deleterious traits including mental deficiencies.

Thus some have taken up the term you refer to....to describe Mormons who do stupid things to delineate them from non-mormons doing stupid things.

Crafty? Mean? you be the judge

Sorry Ryan, but I can't remind you how climbing videos are not something I think they are...an hour long commercial porno for the industrial tourism market.

Climbing videos are more akin to porn than say watching a football game or any professional televised sporting event, wouldn't you agree?

A climbing vid will provide quick, self gratification, a moments pleasure, typically a woah, that climb looks sweet or a one day i'd like to climb that. But then take a moment and look at the resources that are exploited in the video, in just a few years time (say ten years) they bare little resemblance of what they once where.

My problems with videos like this and others like it is; it's like watching a porn and all of a sudden there's your sister smack dab in the middle of the action. So you speak out and say something like (but probably not as calm and collected as) "Like hey I don't think you should film videos of you and your friends friends fucking my sister" and the community say (in many more words than this) "but dude your sister is hot".

Also my humble opinion; Videos like this and the STUPID FUCKING JUG HANDLE ARCH VIDEO are like seeing something you care about, something irreplaceable being solicited for a few quick fleeting dollar bills.

VOX CLAMANTIS in DESERTO

Good video saw it quite some time ago....

In middle school in the early 80's, my friends started using the expression to describe the overall stepford wives, 50's suburban dream/nightmare social/political landscape in utah. "Man this place is Utarded, ALL the stores are closed 'cause it's sunday."
During the same time period, several of the rocky mountain states were similarly utarded. Some states, like Idaho for example, still show heavy signs of utardation.

I believe it, the origins of the word "Utard", has very little to do with the inbreeding, polygamist, krakauerian, locals trying to keep it all in the family and more to do with word play/puns, the ironic comedy of life....ala Candide's ability to laugh at his own shortcomings and downfalls.

Dude. STFU. You are a moron.
