Three liters of water down your leg, sure ;)

One liter from the Camelback, 2 liters from peeing his pants.

Oh come on, can't we hold out for one water, one pee, and uh, one liter sticky? Kinda balance things out??

Kinda like one bourbon, one whiskey, and one beer? (Any Thorogood fans?)



Edit:  To AV’s drinking/drug metaphor….I think doing thin multipitch ice/mixed is more like pulling up to a remote desert biker bar and spinning donuts on your GSX-R1000 in the parking lot, then walking in and kicking the first guy you see square in the balls while shouting for the barkeep to bring you a Stella  —you’re pretending you do this all the time, and it ain’t nuthin, inside you know you’re likely not going to survive this, but when somehow you do, you feel like “uh huh, that’s right, I’m the man”…for about 10 minutes until reality sets in

Dangers of hot sauce. Some like a little kick, some like it extra spicy, some just want to suffer. There is something for everyone in trad. 

In the early 90's while attending high school in fort collins a guy named jim started making hot wings and made people sign a waiver if they truly wanted his hottest hot wings. They were 5.12X on my scale. Survived, but not something I ordered twice and definitely felt it again the next day.

What is "traditoinal" and what is "dangeours"? These are new words for me.

You can find them in the millennial generation dictionary.
