Come on Abbie. Tell him about Mr. Tom Ahole.
Basically Tom thought he could be as cool as other jumpers who were far more skilled than him and he pulled too low and blew out his A-hole on the water. Then he went on to injure himself more times than anyone else in BASE jumping and decided internet BASE is the way to go for him so he spent hours on end every day making over 10,000 posts on the dorkzone to create a phony persona of himself and to control BASE jumpers as he blatantly abused his moderator position. He sold out the sport of BASE to the larger skydiving community and played politics until he had more enemies then anyone I ever knew. Now he runs that other BASE website that wont even allow Mick Knutson to use his Blinc logo as his avatar.

Ironic seeing as Mick started his first BASE board before Tom ever even knew what a square parachute was. Ironic because it was Mick's BASE board that Tom used as his loudmouth platform as soon as he started BASE jumping whereby Tom sucked up to those he thought could help his ego-driven campaign of stupidity and sight burning. He also used this platform to disrespect many other older BASE jumpers and manufactuers.... acting like a know it all and getting himself and newer jumpers hurt along the way. If you've ever seen him jump you'd understand why he mainly sticks to internet BASE.
So the rubber asshole phrase refers to the infamous Tom Ahole. Plus from what I've heard he has used it for other applications as well.
