Lots of different ropes and shoes for different occasions.

Heck, now there are even enough different hand jammies to bring glove quiver into the lexicon.

Bouquet?
Bundle?
Party?
Gaggle?
Murder?

A murder of nuts... Sounds like the fall I took a few days ago

Lol what the fuck would you say if not "beta"?

"Good sir, do you have information on the climbing movement of this section?"

"May I inquire for your assistance and knowledge with logistics of hauling on that route?"

Vs:

"What's your beta here?"

"What's the hauling beta for that route?"

Really? Just use words. 

“How did you do that part?”
“How did you haul on that pitch?”

Whenever you hear someone say that, just reply "I'm all a quiver to hear what you got!" Put extra emphasis on the word "quiver"and say it three or four times making the word louder each time.
