What the hell does this sticker mean?? Asking the community!

I have a climbing sticker that says "All the 5.12s I climb are soft." Oddly, this could have two completely opposite interpretations: - I'm bragging: I'm so strong that every 12 I climb feels easy to me. - I'm humble: I'm only able to climb 12s because every one I've tried is easier than its grade. So which one is it?? |

Humble-brag. I climb 5.12, but they're soft. |

Humble. I'm actually a 5.11 climber, but can manage a 5.12, provided it's a soft one. |

Noel Zwrote: Same here. In the gym of course. |

It means "I need external validation" |

The only acceptable climbing sticker is the “5.6R” sticker they hand out when you top the First Flatiron |
|
|
Whatever it means, it belongs right next to your 26.2 sticker. |

Its a cry for help |

Maybe it means, “I only climb at the White Cliffs of Dover.” |

My interpretation - "Because I still get absolutely thrashed climbing runout 5.9 slab or offwidth, this sticker means all the 5.12s I've climbed are probably soft and I'm not that good of a climber." At least that's how it relates to me |
