Whoa...kind of sensitive aren't we? Maybe some of us need to lighten up a little. Don't you think this guy meant this as a humorous piece?
The article kinda reminds me of some of the stuff by Pat McManus and others. Fun to read...

So.....he’s basing all hammocks and the people who use them based solely on a few experiences with select people.
No, that’s not stereotyping and being prejudice at all......
Well, then. I hate pissy Canadians who climb rocks and hate hammocks. He can stay on the ground and keep dragging his pseudo French knuckles there, as well. No need to find out why something doesn't work. Just write an article about how stupid the thing you can't use right is. Don't forget to mention how much you want to burn all of them, as well.
I hate poutine even though many people (including myself) find it delicious. I hate it because good poutine makes my belly smile and my taste buds dance! Im sure bad poutine could be terrible, and good or bad, it contributes to obesity in Canada and the nothern midwestern United States. It may be lacking in nutrition, and loaded with saturated fat, but gym rats show up and ruin my experience by being in shape near me while I stuff my face with deliciousness, while their girlfriends watch from a chair. That being said, I hate chairs, too. They all need to be burned. Rant over.

Is satire no longer understood? I thought it was rather humorous.

Ok, I did a search about the portaledge.

In this photo I can see why one would not be comfortable.

Hammocks were used by climbers before portaledges were developed.
I collect vintage camp stoves.
I roast coffee at home.
I was curious about that, since a lot of my friends are level 10masters on the sarcasm scale and often post very good satire articles. But after looking at the author’s other articles......Originally Posted by waddy
Nope, he’s a pretentious douche....
My reponse was posted as satirical in turn.

"...the height of hammock snobbery!"
My response was tongue in cheek as well. So, I guess this question comes to mind... can satire exist in an online environment? Should it?

All i have to say is my worst night in a hammock was way better than my best night on the ground. which is why i stuck with it and did the research. Eventually the research led me here. Now i prefer the hammock to a bed and sleep in it 365 nights a year.
