It's addicting... so addicting that one could do it for hours on end only to realize that their tendons couldn't keep up with the adrenaline rush and the end result is a seriously injured arm. :x

Fun, intense, satisfying, humbling, technical, and/or pumpy to name a few.

Think climbing, only without having to mess with ropes and gear and such....just walk around with your buddies and get on some rocks. It's great, and you get to mess around and do crazy things on the rocks without killing/hurting yourself (too much). :D

Or "higher", depending on who you boulder with 8) :wink:
EDIT: This was a pretty poor troll job, by the way.

10 replies in less than an hour. I'd say that is quite successful. Some high tech fishermen, what with their bass boats, radar, sonor, 12 tackle boxes and 5 fishing rods, they look down their noses at an old washer woman sitting on the banks of an irrigation ditch in a plastic folding chair, reeling in 6 incher after 6 incher with her bobber, single barbed hook and a can of fat juicy worms.
"That's some piss poor fishing!"
Then she hauls out the basket with 78 fish in it. Same size as the basket of fish she caught last time. And the time before that.
Yeah, that's some piss poor fishing.
Trolling with worms... some people get it, others don't.

Yea... But the user created a new user name just for it, instead of using their regular, then even replied to it. Kinda weak.

yeah, but has anyone ever created a new account to post a topic, used their old account to reply to it, then created a second new account to expose how lame his first two accounts were? now that would be creative.

Multiple Personality Disorder would be a good thing to call it, especially since the "disorder" has been thoroughly discredited.
It doesn't exist.

Nope. It was all a crock of shiot lies. Read up about the subject. It's pretty interesting.
