  • Rattlesnakes in the brush next to the trail or base of the crag
  • A fresh turd on the ground, especially if there's still a lot of that olive color
  • Smokers
  • People that bolt a route but leave a blank spot because you could fiddle in a piece 
  • Central Banking/FIAT
  • Democrats 
  • MAGA/GOP
  • Anyone who gets elected because they want to force people into living under their rules. That's sociopathy.
  • Michael J Fox
  • The Investor Class, especially the Boomers who hollowed out everything their children needed for a self sufficient society for a slight bump on their portfolios ROI. Actually, this on should be up at the top but still under rattlesnakes.
  • People who kill rattlesnakes

To be clear, it's because of his lack of Elvis-ness.

People doing remote software engineering/computer programming thinking they're dirtbags. You're not. And if you're working on AI or social media you are contributing to an absolute cancer on society.

I like your style. Can't lose if you're on both teams.

People who delete their comments for no good reason, which makes a thread or replies lose context. Makes you feel that it's a waste of other people's time to even bother to respond.

I think that’s on OnX. Once they started “defending the User’s copyright,” I’ve switched to delete-after-a-month-or-so. If they think it’s theirs but has my username on it, it has a half-life.

No idea if that was the other person’s reasoning. Just to advocate for everyone clearing comments and maybe even routes every so often.

So you're saying you still don't understand the terms you agreed to when you created an account.
