philosophiliac

was looking at the exped mountain pro 30 for a joint urban daypack/overlander/climbing pack but was a bit ehhhhh cos I don't want to spend $260ish (about what it costs in aus)

whilst looking around for an alternative I could dig on as much I found this

fuuuuuuuuuuuuuugoddamnit

more expensive and I like it MORE

the higgs boson can bite my shiny metastable ass

late pass for any aussies on here but fuckyeahhappy'strayadaykuntttttttttttt

broken glass embedded in the bottom of a box. picked up the box, glass went into hand, blood went onto box, stitches went into hand.

5 stitches in the palm of my hand. no climbing for three weeks. fuck

your rents sound like miserable people :/ even if they're trying to help out by warning you off stressing the small stuff or something they're being dicks about it

on another note - got a business opportunity coming up. it'll start out as occasional hours, chump change and may never amount to anything more than some cash moneyz in pocket on occasion. if it goes somewhere... i'll probably be able to make a decent middle class living on it. but it's my idea and i'm excited about it.

probably a repost but relevant

pm'd you. haven't been on here in days sorry man :/

just watched home alone and i am down to put all sorts of marbles and toy cars/suspended paint cans/greased ladder rungs all over the perimeter. haploid i got yo back

killed it mothafucka i am so happy right now fuckkkkkkkkkkkkk

I sometimes wish we could have moderated, rational discussion about current events, politics, policy, etc on here. It's fun sometimes to discuss some heavier topics with people, it's how I refine my position on things and become more educated. But I understand it would inevitably be derailed into a rabbit hole of racism, homophobia, ignorance and whatever else anonymous people tend to bring to the table.

dude i feel if you ignored the few woogies and co in here you could have a pretty decent discussion.

@champs ASP as in the handgun or the extending baton? either way, that's fucked up. as appleseed said go to the landlord and if nothing else works then document and just walk out. if it's gotten to the point that you've had to put a lock on your door and keep a weapon under your pillow then the law isn't going to fuck you over. your crackhead ex room-mates, however...?

just sorting out care packages bruh, should all be done by xmas hopefully

big thank you to our volunteers for care packages, and to everyone who's helped make this swap a dope one so far!

fits don't degrade with age man

You talk funny. I like you.

it was a skin error. don't think they did it on purpose

unfortunately it's that time of swap again - we've had flakers and now we're going to send out care packages to the couple of guys that missed out. the swapmods are all helping out but we're asking for two-four volunteers to throw in a couple bits and pieces to pad out the packages.

you don't have to have participated in the swap to help out, (not expecting anyone who already sent a package having to go further than that) and to be clear we're not asking for a complete package from you. if you've got a bunch of stuff that's suitable, then that's great, but two or three cool things from each person is really all we need. at this stage we're anticipating cool things will be sent to one location (almost certainly in the CONUS) to be put together and then sent on from there. the timeframe on this is pretty short so you should only volunteer if you can definitely get something out before december.

whodown? #superchristmascarepackages

yeah they're obscene. I have very little experience on bikes with that kind of power to weight ratio so it seemed even more mental to me than it would have to someone with experience on litre bikes or similar.

i don't think i'd ever actually own one but it was fun to hit the freeway and suddenly be doing a billion kilometres an hour.

and the noise. dear god the noiseurghleoejrnaf

assuming eg knew that, just posting it cost it looks retarded

a most excellent first post

fair enough, thanks man. heard that nail files/sandpaper were a good way to go but hadn't tried it. it's more the callouses than the backs of my hands - getting torn up in general but that's to be expected outdoors/particularly crack climbing. might try that tape glove aswell though

hope your elbow is resting up well

yo what do you guys do to keep your fingers from tearing up? started multipitching some long crack climbs and keep tearing callouses off. never had this happen before. tried finger tape before, tried moisturiser to keep the skin from drying out too much - neither is solving the problem but they help... is there anything else you guys suggest?

what's going on with all the russian spambot ad threads in the trash? this ever happened before?

wtf is going on? draft happened with 1 hour notice at 6am my time?

are we just good to go now starting week 3? and daily i assume

just took one of the new panigale s' for a spin in my lunchbreak.

holy.

shit.
