"Oh yeah, feel that crack up."

"I can't feel you belaying me."

If anyone can think of more please post. Two just isn't good enough.

"How do you tie a figure 8 again?"

"motherf*&$ing, c*$sucking, fence painting, ball knocking, rusty trombone playing, whorebag of a route. Who bolted this?" all the while a group of cub scouts watches in amazement, they got their cursing badge that day.

To your belayer:

In reply to:
I've been waiting for the right time to tell you this and this seems like as good time as any. (insert confession here)

Conversely, the above is precisely the right time to confess transgressions to your climber. But it should look a little more like this:

In reply to:
I've been waiting for the right time to tell you this and this seems like as good time as any. (insert confession here) Do you forgive me?

For the prefect moment, keep your eye on the leader's Screamer clipped to an out-of-the-way section of the rack. When he or she moves to grab it, start confessing.

T-Nutz... yours was good, but I prefer:


Belayer: Hey, you know that chick you hooked up with last night?
Climber: Yea, dude she was HOT. We got trashed and she ended up at my place. Man, I didn't know a girl could be that rough in bed.
Belayer: Yea, that was my sister. Off belay.

At the beginning of pitch 2-3, after the leader has just placed 1st piece of pro:
Belayer: This may not be the best time to tell you, but your rope is really looking freyed down here.

Good ones people, I just thought of this:

After the climber has reached about halfway up the sport route:

Belayer: "Hey dude, I've been reading the guide book and it said not to climb this route. The bolts are supposed to be really bad."
Climber: "Dude! You've been reading this whole time!?!"
Belayer: "Umm..."

climber: CRAP! HOLY MOTHER F***ING CRAP!
belayer: WHAT!
this actually happened to me, i being the belayer. Turned oyut the dude has just found out his water bottle was leaking. the team learder almost called the rescue people because he thought the guy was hurt. :shock: it was bad for me because the leader thought i had let slack in the rope.
