Helmets.

Below are some I thought about, feel free to add yours.

Misspellings and run-on sentences. ;-)

Haven't read the whole thread, but I'd add accusing people of theft when you bail or you leave project draws. Both guarantee pages' worth of shit.

Once you get tired of cliff bars, they taste like doody fer sure. It’s a strange phenomenon. You start off “okay”, “okay”, “no way”.

Alex Honnold should not be filming his free solos.

If the follower can't clean a piece he has to buy you another one.

You leave gear on a climb it's BOOTY!!!! PERIOD!!!

Gym climbers are stupid and dangerous and should stay in the gym under ADULT supervision!

Socks or no socks

Stick clips.

Learn if your trad gear is good by falling on it
Learn all you need to know from videos
Always use the strongest knot
What's the BEST______?
NEVER _______
ALWAYS _________
Knots in the ends of your rap ropes are dangerous
Knots in the end aren't needed as long as you're paying attention

Hand jammies are aid and for pussies

Gates in always, OR gates out (for Harambe). Why is this even being talked about???

The number to Rock N' Resole is (303) 440-0414

Partner finder means PARTNER, not, you will guide me, carry all the shit and lead every pitch...

Shouldn't you be skipping rope or something ;-)

Tube socks only if you are wearing EB's or Fire's, otherwise sockettes are fine.

I know, man, I’m considering the rope right now. It considers you, really.

And where is argyle in your taxonomy?

Hey, I got those fancy lad toe socks. It’s like a cockring for your toes, brah. 

And ladies remember to tan your Yoni every day as part of your practice, it kills covfefevirus.

I'm Acadian, so substitute the Louis the XVI hosiery for Argyle, and should only be used with LaSpo Solutions or Scarpa Chimeras.

If I saw a woman wearing bikini hand jammies I’d about lose my damn mind.

Moonlight buttress should be bolted so people can aid up it faster.

After any two pitches there should be extra bolts for the portaledge as well.
