Well That’s Just “Cute”.

They met climbing a mountain!

@admins ‘tabloid cover’ forum section please

“After asking to see the ring, she said yes”

The Greek gotez like her, so that's good enough for me.

Also, one time I bet my co-host a bottle of vodka that I could get Sasha to respond to an Insta DM. I sent her a photo of a baby gote from the ranch and she hearted it, so yeah. No crust from me today -- congratulations, Sasha.

However, I really need Dr. Jaren Watson, Esq. to explain this one to me: 

How does one invent nonfiction? Is this the degree I need to work at Outside+?

I've been reading This Living Hand, a collection of essays and lectures by the late Edmund Morris. He discusses the writing of history and biography, citing examples of narrative techniques derived from fiction by, among others, James Joyce and John dos Passos. So it is, or can be, a thing.

Or maybe you just need to get one of these:

She should've used that degree to help the author of that NYT article.  That was barely readable.

Seems like a pretty good climber, but her narcissistic tendencies in her everyday life are f'n cringe.

I can't speak to that -- honestly, can you? But as to her climbing skills, she was the first woman to send 5.14d, which is pretty rowdy. And then won a bunch of indoor stuff that I personally don't care about but which is still impressive.

Was the downgrade to 14c due to breakage?

Just to cure my OCD, Pure Imagination was downgraded to 5.14c, so maybe not the first woman. But I don't argue that they're a pretty good climber. Yet every big climbing achievement has some sort of drama associated with it it seems. Remember the whole Eiger incident? cringe. 

How much do you pay for a NYT wedding announcement? I imagine that interview in their house in Boulder. The one they "bought" in their 20s lol.

Every time you use a gender-neutral pronoun, FrankPS kills a kitten.

So what if she spent a lot of money on her wedding announcement, house or anything else? Whatever floats your gote. If owning expensive things makes you a narcissist, feel free to send your rack to me for proper disposal.

You probably have a point in this instance.

Imagine you use your wedding announcement as a way to market yourself as a brand. That's what this is and it's weird. Just spent the 100k and have the wedding. 

(Ever go to a wedding there? People on inflatable tubes roll right past you on the creek that goes through the property. Kinda funny. Bring squirt guns/water balloons before you go)

It all sounded wonderful until I got to the menu.  

“Imagine you use your wedding announcement as a way to market yourself as a brand. That's what this is and it's weird. Just spent the 100k and have the wedding”

Sasha didn’t have to pay to announce her wedding in the Times; nobody does. You submit it and, if you/your betrothed/your story is the most interesting, it gets published. It doesn’t hurt to be almost famous (by NYT reader’s standards) and attractive.

Jealous people, step back. Blessings to the bride and groom, and Moosechanga, too.

Doood. All the drama has been on YouTube since July 2019. Mountainproject is so far out of the loop.

I suspect I read half way through.  Saw no more mentioned about their climbing again.

Well … ok.

Hunter S. Thompson, Erik Larson, etc 

The amount of the article that I could bear to tolerate reading seemed sterile and derivative. I am wondering if it was AI generated......

Fritz is right - don't use the silly pronouns.

This was exactly the explanation I was hoping for! It seems the genre reconciles seemingly paradoxical elements in the same way that "prose poetry" does. Thank you!

Also, the gotez would like to confer upon you an honorary doctorate so that you might gain ascendancy into the ranks of Dr. Dre, Dr. Who, Dr. J and Dr. Pepper.

Kitten 3 is doing a mighty fine job at a gote impression!
