I truly believe that if all of us flame throwers got together for a climb we'd have a blast! I'd probably be laughing to much to climb though... and of course I'd be on a -5.0 also hahaha

you've been amusing so far, but some of the reg's around here get bored easily (unless we're discussing the relative pros and cons of Magic Sliding X's vs. cordalettes vs. equalettes vs. death-o-lettes)
try not to wear us out in the first week. we're (mostly) just a bunch of civilians, you know.

OK, NOZ, now explain to us what that word is telling us.
I tried researching your ooze of the word "word". I found you have submitted some neat pix of climberz, although you don't tell hooz they are.
I searched RC.com for other guys' use of that bare word "word". Sure enough, it's been coming and going as a complete topic since 2003. Once, somebody tried changing it to "nice" -- but that didn't stick.
I found 10 RC users with "word" in their user names, notably "wordless_chorus" who did not use the word in his posts.
So, NOZY, what are you telling us? Hmm?

Is this a code used in cellphone text messages?
Or was it invented by the chat crowd?
I know about LOL and ROTFLMAO, but "word" is not an acronym.
Also I can understand "werd" as a pidgin or hill-billy "word" 
This reminds me of the prisoner's joke:
In reply to: The new prisoner joined the others in the mess-hall, and all the other prisoners were eating their fish-sticks and bread. One guy called out "23". All the other prisoners bust out laughing, and eventually fell back into silence. Another guy yelled "18". Again the others laughed for a while, then returned to silent dinner. "Psst", our new user whispered an older con at the table, "what's so funny"? "Those are jokes," said the man. "We know them all by heart, so we just list them by numbers, and everybody gets a chuckle." Hmmm... the new guy wanted to join the fun, and show how clever he was. "37" he yelled out. Nobody responded. "Psst", our new user whispered, "why didn't they laugh at my joke? Didn't I tell it right?" "Oh, you told it right. But that's an old joke, and we're tired of it." |

3) can be used as a greeting, hey whats up

No Noozer, you are truly wasting my time trying to smart in public.
Although you are right about how I'm wasting my time.
When anybody publishes a comment in a public forum (any forum, it doesn't have to RC), he has the right to fool his audience any way he likes
.
I don't know who you are, or why you're here, or what your buzzwords might mean. I always assume that you composed your posting on purpose, and that you started with some idea that you'd like to tell the world. So there was this one-word message, obviously posted on purpose, inviting me to read it. So I did.
I had no way of knowing that your post was empty, useless bandwidth.
But not entirely! I have learned about one of the hip-hop words in the Urban Dictionary, and one way to miss-spell it. I should research the expanded phrase "werd up" but I won't bother. I'd rather trade prisoner jokes with my wife, who knows a bit of Cockney Rhyming Slang.

the DOD has yet to publish that manual. I have heard though that the number one rule is that any 16y.o. girls from Illinois are actually 40y.o. FBI men from Tennesee.
oh yeah... the 12y.o. boys, too.

Richard, do you think it is smart, to introduce yourself like, "Hi, I'm a marine, my job is to shoot people"?

Dan, there is an alternate punch line, worth retelling...
When the new guy yells out "37", they go wild. People fall down laughing, faces turn red, the works. He asks the guy next to him, "How was my joke so funny?"
The guy says, "They hadn't heard that one before."
