What if a person only likes to dive warm water and will only dive with certain people? I guess they would be a super snob!
If I only like to dive in water as cold as the micro brew I drink, would that make me a cold water beer snob?
If I don't like to dive with certain people because I think they are such bad divers that they could potentially cause me a lot of grief underwater, does that make me a snob or a self preservationist?
Everybody just want's to have fun, but let's not confuse snobbery with safety. Sometimes people choose a certain path or buddies or locations for personal and comfort reasons. When it gets ugly is when those people belittle others for not being like them, and not realizing that the ones they are bashing may actually be safer and having more fun. I'm glad we're not all the same. But honestly, the story about 94 degree water and 120 air temps, holy crap!! That's way too hardcore for me!! I couldn't do it.
And what MaxBottomtime said,
the ones that did all the bashing are gone. BTW, I know who he's talking about, LOL!
They come, and then they go.
And about wine snobs, I live in Sonoma county and Napa county is my next door neighbor. I'm living right smack in the middle of wine country ground zero. I can't help it if we have some of the best wine in the world!
So what's your point? lol!!
