A Quick Word on ROOFING! 06/20/02 by Grim Phreaking As I sit here bored...my mind wonders. It doesn't come back, so I pass the time by IM'ing random things to linear...he has no idea who I am and ignores me pointedly. So for some reason I think about roofing, and think it needs to be talked about here! Anyway...Roofing is just what you think it is: Making sandwich...No, just kidding, it's going up on roofs silly! Why go up there? Well, because that's how ninjas and batman do it and so can we! Also, because there are often all sorts of interesting thangs up there. When roofing, do it at night. Wear Dark clothes, but don't don some ninja outfit so you look like a burglar...if you get caught and you look like the 1337 dark warrior shahazeelub you're screwed...if you look like a bum or just some 'punk kid' you'll probably just get yelled at and kicked out. It's a good idea to bring a SMALL flashlight...gloves...and maybe a backpack for anything cool you find like the frisbee you got stuck up there last week. Now be careful...occasionally rooftops will have a camera or two...or other security systems. Avoid the camera views, and if you hear an alarm...leave. (Good advice, eh?) Getting up is usually a matter of a fire escape stairway or ladder. For the ninjas out there I suppose you can climb pipes or windows or something to, or even use a grappling hook or suction cups...whatever works quickly...but make sure you have a quick way down. If you get caught, act cool and casual and play it like you were just wandering around...odds are it won't be a real cop, so just outmsart and or outrun them Now, you're not freakin Batman...don't go hopping from roof to roof if they're far away like a dumbass, cause you'll break a leg and get caught and EVERYONE here will make fun of you and you'll cry. Anyway, just use common sense....rooftops hold all sorts of weird equipment sometimes, and sometimes diddly shit(kinda like dumpster diving) so just have fun, and don't get busted!
