Whenever I hear about silly shit like this I'm reminded of an exchange between Jack Ryan and Skip Tyler in Hunt for Red October.

JACK: Could you fire an ICBM horizontally?
SKIP: Sure. Why would you want to?

Rep for my fav movie of all time.

However, the article say this, and it offends my sensibiltiies:

The city said he will use a contraption taped to his nose to push the peanut.


Apparently, though, the first person to do it also used a contraption if you watch this video: https://www.travelchannel.com/videos...pusher-0235616. And the second person attached a wooden salad fork to his nose if you read this article: https://gazette.com/life/outdoors/sp...09ea818a3.html

I don't know about this. I think if you're going to say that you're pushing a peanut up Pikes Peak with your nose, you should have to directly use your nose. What do you think?


I think you are daring the folks in charge of making the shit you have to do for eternity in the afterlife schedule to assign you to the pushing peanuts up mountains with your noses detail.

Bob Salem's attempt to push a peanut up the 13-mile Barr Trail to the top of Pikes Peak using only his nose is nothing short of cheating. While it may be a novel and unusual challenge, it is not a true test of physical endurance or skill.

Instead of relying on his own strength and determination to reach the summit, Salem is using a contraption taped to his nose to do the work for him. This takes away from the spirit of the hike and the accomplishments of those who have completed the Peanut Push in the past, such as Ulysses Baxter and Bill Williams.

Furthermore, the use of a contraption introduces an element of unfairness, as it gives Salem an advantage over other hikers who are not using such a device. It's not a level playing field, and it takes away from the sense of camaraderie and accomplishment that comes with completing a challenging hike.

In short, Bob Salem's Peanut Push is a stunt, not a genuine feat of endurance. It is unfair and undermines the achievements of those who have come before him.

Spoiler!

I would be much more impressed if he pushed his nuts up Pike's Peak with his nose.

If I've led a bad life, I figure those people already have me slated to watch Broncos and Raiders matchups for the rest of eternity. This would be a nice break from that.

Frankly, I don't know if I will ever see nose-pushing events the same way after this fiasco.

That’s not putting your nose to the grindstone Bob

Check out the picture. He could easily scoop the peanut and fling it three feet at a time. This makes a mockery out of pushing peanuts up mountains with your nose.

looks like my cpap mask

CPAP actually stands for "Can Push A Peanut". You've been using it wrong.
