I'm sure rock climbing is also better at carrying a conversation in a bar. "So what are you up to outside of work?" "I uh... dig a tunnel." "Right."

"Right."
- TrevorJ 5y agoI dunno, personally I'd have way more questions about tunnel digging.
- thathndude 5y agoAgreed. As a fellow rock climber, not a whole lot to talk about. After all, I already know the sport. But tunnel digging. Now that's a subject where my knowledge is limited. Teach me!
- SilasX 5y agoYes! It was actually a plot point in Better Call Saul season 4 that an engineer on a covert underground project violated OpSec by talking about it about it a bar, which prompted a ton of interest and follow up questions.
- brewdad 5y agoIt really depends on the overall vibe the guy gives off otherwise. I might have tons of questions about it, or I might take that as my cue to close out my tab and move on to somewhere else.

- jeltz 5y agoNot really, I have friends who are rock climbers so I would have way more questions for the tunnel guy.
- Jeff_Brown 5y agoIt's all in your attitude. If you are/act embarrassed about your weird characteristics, your listener will probably assume that's the right way to feel. Something similar happens if you are/act excited.
