Shit Non-climbers Say

Okay, Ellenor, here's one I've gotten many a time from non-climbers/non outdoorsy friends in Vegas.

"Did you hear, someone just died at Red Rock, did you know him?"

Climbers (as climbers, not whatever we do at our normal day jobs, if we have one and aren't an asshole Boulder trustafarian) do not contribute to society. Take, for instance, this thread.

hmm I'm a climber, with a job that contributes to society... I'm even from Chicago but now I live in Boulder. I see a lot of hate coming from people that don't live here (and probably have never visited) yet I have yet to meet any of these "assholes" in person yet?

BTW how is being a climber in Chicago going for ya? If anyone sounds like a douchebag you might want to look in the mirror.

if she wasn't healthy looking would that not be cool?

+1000 from another woman climber

I won't say it outright, but c-- f----!

I guess it's no different than our usual c--- f----s

Haha... We're going to have to erect a Thunder Dome real quick like. I'm sure Ellenor can take this lot, but my money would be on Aunty Entity to run Bartertown.

amen to that

"You must be some kind of adrenaline junkie right?"

Die. Die. Die.
I only get adrenaline when i'm about to tick 8a +.

But let's be honest, all of the shit non-climbers say is kind of funny...

But non-climbers who try to relate to climbing (because for some reason they think talking before finding out that you are actually pretty good at climbing) is a good idea. Example

"yehhh mann climbing is tite. I love goin. I am really strong so it's easy"

-.- fuck-my-d*ck.

Having spent two months on a gynecology service, I can say with absolute certainty that those motherfuckers don't have fun.

one time I was at the gym and some lady asked us how we got the rope up there!! I told her we THREW IT UP THERE!!!!!!! She totally believed us!!!!
