Don't waste my time. There is a search function for a reason. Use it.

Check out the 'Help' menue at the top of the page. There's a link to the dictionary and to other helpful informations as the 'Climbing FAQ' etc.

The hint to the search function isn't that bad also...

Have you read the "ask the nOOb" thread?:

http://www.rockclimbing.com/....php?p=971419#971419

Lots of good info there...... OK not really. But you can actually learn a lot about the lingo from subtle, if you have a few hours or so...

cheers!

Dont see why u gotta be like that tho!

I was just wondering if some one could give me a useful hint towards it as more experienced climbers with knowledge.

I was always told learn from those in the know!

My greatest apologies for wasting your time!

I'm annoyed. The thread topic is ambiguous and the topic has been covered repeatedly. Call me an a-hole, but this thread is a waste. I believe you are name calling without rightful reason. Now, if I told you to go hug a tree, you waste-of-life liberal, I guess you could call me an a-hole... No one should ever take my posts too harshly anyways, as I am a generally blunt, straight-forward, to-the-point, and RATIONAL person.

I was thinking ass-cave, but I think donkey-tunnel is much funnier. That's good stuff.

Who is the child? Someone who posted in earnest or the one who feels the need to pounce on them for it? Who made you internet God, deciding what is right and wrong? Why don't you go back to driving daddy's BMW on the track, where you can be so cool and brag about it to all your trust-fund buddies.

BTW, you are wasting your own time now.

In case you don't have a mirror, this is what an asshole really looks like:

I'm Linden. I'm 20, and a industrial design student (switched from aviation technology) at purdue university. I've been climbing for a couple years but only over the past year have gone outside. I'm unfortunately very single. I try to stay really active and love to play frisbee, climb, ski, and play soccer. Other hobbies I guess would include taking my fathers bmw to the track (beaverun) for some road racing. I thoroughly enjoy burning off a tank of gas in 160 minutes while grinding tires into the pavement at 110 mph. If you want to party, let's party

So young... so angry. Did you ever wonder if the world might not actually be exactly as it appears to you?

Yeah. I wonder why this guy is single? Ha ha.

Have a nice life, donkey tunnel.

what isn't as it appears? so I'm terse about someone not using the search function. Yes, I am you and angry. I'm also in between girlfriends by choice. Don't whine about daddy paying my way either. I'm about to leave work... If you want to "straighten things out for me", go on ahead. I think I've been somewhat reserved. If you want to swear or post something that you think is a clever insult, go on ahead. You won't hurt my feelings.

jlc325i,

Ordinarily I stay out of this kind of thing and I'm not gonna waste any time being creative. SO, a simple you're an ASS HOLE will suffice.

jlc - lighten up man. what, did triangle kick you out? daddy get downsized and all he can afford for you is a mercedes instead of a beemer? did that hot pi phi decide to go to the formal w/ your pledge dad?

with your online posturing and assinine comments in this post, i'm almost ashamed to have graduated from purdue.

so the nOOb didn't use the search function, no need to rip him a new one. it's better to stay silent and have others think you're a fool, than to open your fricking mouth and prove everybody right.
