YEAH!! That's right!! I HAVE A MANICURE IN A HOUR TENZIG!! GET ME THE FUCK DOWN!
Actually, keeping time is pretty important when you're delirious from lack of oxygen and if you don't turn back at a certain time you'll die but...

Dissent. It is essential for any safety-conscious mountaineer to set and establish a rational "turn back time" in consultation with the team, determining the precise benchmarks for ascent progress --- if you haven't reached the benchmark by the turn-back time, you won't be summitting that day.
The advantage of wearing a Tag is that wherever you are on the mountain, and whatever time it may be, a single glance at your wrist can accurately tell you to turn back now. |

What is this trend towards starting posts with "dissent"? Is the phrase "I disagree" out of vogue? Does anyone say "dissent" in regular conversation? Has this been going on for a long time and I just noticed it? |

Then it's okay...to have a Tag for diving if you actually dive, or for mountain climbing if you actually climb does not make you a tool. It's like a Breitling. Men, do not buy one of these unless you actually pilot an airplane. If you do, you are a tool.

You and Sebby are such a pair of idiots. You both define what is and isn't cool by who already owns whatever it is you're buying. "I can't like that because only tools buy Tags or Breitlings, unless they are actually using them for snorkeling/airplane flying." "You're a tool for wearing Ebel because Italian cats seem to dig them." What a load of fucking crap. Do you spend your whole life searching for the labels on other people's clothes and accessories so that you can properly judge them? Jesus Christ.
I don't own either watch. I don't plan on owning either watch. But when I shop, I look for what I like. Then I buy it. I don't give a shit who else wears it or what kind of open or hidden message it sends to morons like the two of you.

At least "Bullshit" never goes out of style.

Someone may have already said this, but in that case you should frequent any Pizza Hut in the metropolitan area.
Those franchisees seem to have hung on to that 1980s era technology, waiting through the lean years until the nostalgia value kicked in.

Come to think of it, they're Hummers.

Speaking of dumbasses with status symbols, I was behind a bright yellow H2 last night at the drive-through ATM and the dumbass left his card in the machine so before I could get money I had to sit there and wait for it to get sucked back into the machine. Dumbfuck. I'd like to behead him and hang his severed head by the tongue.

I believe the correct time to turn back is well before one has to check one's watch in order to ensure avoiding imminent frozen death.
An internal "damn, I need a hot chocolate" meter generally serves me well for determining when it's time to turn back or pitch camp in the snow.

It's highly likely that, in hand-to-hand fighting, virtually anyone of reasonable health could kick the ass of any insecure simp in an H2.
In fact, I can't imagine you'd even have to break a sweat.

I really don't want the Members Only jacket reference to get old, b/c I love it and frequently use it IRL. Did Chicagoans get exposed to it earlier than everyone else?*
