dingbat Posted January 20, 2016 Report Share Posted January 20, 2016 Sound like a couple of jack-wagons. I'd have probably pushed them both off the chair 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lordmetroland Posted January 20, 2016 Report Share Posted January 20, 2016 Personally, I strictly enforce a zero-tolerance policy with anyone who uses phrases like "tits deep," regardless of the location. There is an exemption for "balls deep" but only when sung, like Scissorfight. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Futahaguro Posted January 20, 2016 Report Share Posted January 20, 2016 I will never push someone off of a chair, period. That is dangerous and if they found that dude he should be dealt with accordingly. Having said that, I also think it is incredibly disrespectful to make a comment like that to a complete stranger. Don't be a complete dope. You can make those comments to people you know but why do you need to make them to strangers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allee Posted January 20, 2016 Report Share Posted January 20, 2016 There's a few people on FB calling BS on this story. But having ridden at Aspen, and recalling some of the unpleasant remarks that have been made to me by skiers on chairlifts over the years, this didn't surprise me at all.

philw Posted January 22, 2016 Report Share Posted January 22, 2016 So was the bar on the chairlift down or not? It's just that if it was down, it's hard to see how this could happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Futahaguro Posted January 22, 2016 Report Share Posted January 22, 2016 Heh. The article in Michael's post didn't actually post the part of the comment that probably pissed the guy off. Come on journalists, it might be an offending comment but if it is part of the story you need to post it as a quote. It actually sheds a poor light on the dude who pushed him off because the comment they chose to post is about as innocuous as it gets.

philw Posted January 23, 2016 Report Share Posted January 23, 2016 It is funny when they can't even write a word like "tit". I think kids here learn that one aged about six. We progress to "bum", and other words, but I reckon no child, rich or poor, doesn't know all those words by the time they're teenagers. The idea that they then become "offended" by them is... fucking bullshit made up to cause trouble. ----------- In America the consequences of minor disagreements can, it seems, be more severe than elsewhere. Perhaps this is because: they have guns; and some of their chair lifts don't have bars. I'm sure Sarah Palin and Trumpy will shout that this is a consequence of god or their constitution, and I'm sure they're right. For the rest of us, sticking your arm over the back of a chair is a pretty good way to ensure you don't slide out of it. Or just put the thing down - it's not indicative of the size of your dick.

digger jr Posted January 24, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 24, 2016 Was hoping this was a story about a snowboarder pushing Mr Obermeyer off a chair !I hope you are finally getting some snow. You are sounding a bit angst:)At 94? years old Klauss may not fair well off the chair. Even though he is a dyed in the wool skier, I like the guy. Pretty cool when you are skiing in your 90s. Maybe some day he'll appreciate carvers on snowboards more. Says he's the inventor of the googie tie. Anybody know what that is? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lowrider Posted January 24, 2016 Report Share Posted January 24, 2016 We aren't blessed with natural snow but man made is slowly covering half the runs at the local bump. Corrugated ribbons of death with an abundance of ice. It's sometimes white and you can slide on it. I'm old enough to know the difference and it's close enough I can pretend it's snow ! I hope that I'm able to ski at 90 and that my teeth aren't the largest part off me pretending to huck the park! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
