Dude. It's all fun. Bouldering, Sport, Trad, or just rambling around on easy 5th class. To put any one of these down is stupid. There is radicalness in all of them. They are just different.

Hey guys?
Doncha love it when you get a live one?
Donny is the BEST!!!!
It’s like stirring up an ant pile. All it takes is a little stick (or dick) and they are climbing (sic) all over themselves in anger.
Donny, please don’t ever change. You are the kind of as#@&%e that makes this forum so great.

Oh, OK, now I know what you mean. That's my favorite kind of climbing.
Isn't that like the move you have to do to get back to your Deli seat after joining the squirrels with #? in hand...?

I really like broccoli. Spinach and green beans are really good for you too. Carrots taste good, but I don't like the texture after they're cooked. Canned and frozen vegetables can be as nutritious as fresh -- and in many cases more so. It is important for your diet to follow the proportions of the food pyramid. Size up your recipes according to food groups. A burrito has ingredients from the grain group (tortilla), the vegetable (lettuce and tomato), the meat group (ground meat or beans), and the dairy group (cheese). It makes a well-rounded meal.

Donny’s ability, or lack there of, to create a sentence in the English language, is a prime example of why he sport climbs. No thought required! His big decisions are: Where do I hang my draws on my harness? Which direction should my biner face while clipping? And what do I wear to show off the most muscle? The thought of Donny actually having to figure out what piece of gear to place, figuring out the best orientation, deciding if it should be extended, and if the rock is solid ( all things that quickly go through the mind of a trad climber )…is something that is most likely beyond his scope. So let’s easy up on Donny and be thankful that sport climbing exist for people like him.

Like C-head said "climbing is climbing". What makes a climber? A climber is one who enjoys and is experienced at ALL aspects of his/her sport, not just one. Sport climbing is only one aspect of climbing. And Donny, you really seem to be a numbers guy! Lets see where that gets you when you get to the next bolt....and its been chopped because Mark wilford climbed your 5.13 on gear in 1989. Get real, get some experience, or head back to the gym and be like every other victim of the post 2000 vision that gym climbing should be brought outdoors (i.e. sportclimbing). Next thing you know, ol' Donny will be out there slapping some colored duct tape next to each hold on the sportclimb that he's top-roping.

I for one am happy that Donny is a sport climber. I'd rather he be at the sport crags doing his thing than
in front of me on a trad climb.

Hey you guys are right. I am stupid. I think I'll try this trad climb thing. Anyone know where I can get those cams? or what a good first "trad" lead is?

Guys, we got trolled. That last post is a “Fake Donny”.
The “Real D” would have called us f*#kers, sh#t heads or as#@&%es. Plus the “Fake D” used correct punctuation.
Be fun to see the “Real D” on a wide Valley crack, though.
He’d go crying back to mamma for sure.
