GruntyThrst posted:I would agree with you but Merriam-Webster includes "one slice of bread covered with food" as definition b for sandwich. More proof that dictionary publishers have become weak, pathetic collaborators and descriptivists.

Shine posted:What sort of lifting have you tried? There are very basic programs you can do 2x/week and still get the benefits of resistance training (stronger muscles, stronger bones, being attractive, etc). Did you work with a personal trainer? They tend to be dumb as hell and make their clients do stupid gimmicky poo poo that I'm pretty sure nobody actually enjoys. Can you get a meaningful workout just doing pushups/pullups/situps?

Shine posted:Add squats (bodyweight, split squats, goblet squats) and replace the situps with planks (situps are hard on the spine) and you've got a decent little routine. The challenge with bodyweight stuff is making it harder other than adding more reps and such. It requires more creativity than "add 5lbs next time." A few months ago, I tried doing a basic yoga thing (I bought a DVD called "yoga for inflexible people"), and while doing the cat/cow maneuver, I injured my back (hooray back spasms). Now I'm afraid of yoga. Should I stop being a pussy, or is this a valid thing to worry about? VVVV Will do. prefect has a new favorite as of 16:38 on Mar 29, 2013 |

hate pants posted:I absolutely adore running and I do it on a daily basis, usually 6-7 miles on an indoor track or jogging through nature. However, I loving hate lifting weights, partially cause I don't really know where to start and partially cause it makes me feel like a sore ball of poo poo. This has resulted in me being kind of a skinny fat runner shape with excellent endurance and muscular legs and the upper body of a prepubescent girl composed of mostly jello. I heard Hugh Jackman being interviewed on a radio show once, and the host asked him how he got into such good shape. The host talked about how he ran long distances all the time, but was just skinny. Jackman said that long-distance running makes you skinny, and if you want to build some muscle, you have to do sprinting. (He probably lifts weights too, but I distinctly remember his saying that sprinting could make you muscly.) prefect has a new favorite as of 18:01 on Mar 29, 2013 |

I didn't read the Wikipedia page too closely, but I'm pretty sure it essentially murders a few layers of your skin, which turn white and can be scraped off.

General Panic posted:They should do a version with Attenborough, a version with Sigourney Weaver and then a version with whoever wins a poll on "Who Has the Most Annoying Voice Ever?" That way, you get the British option, the North American option and the comedy option, for maximum consumer choice. I would have a hard time choosing between David Attenborough and Gilbert Gottfried.

Mexican Deathgasm posted:Don't be tired or hungover when you drop. Seriously, make sure you get a good night's sleep because doing psychedelics when you are tired is a dumb idea unless you are one of those annoyingly cheerful people. Be excited to do it, and be in a space where you feel comfortable. Other than that, go for it, it's definitely an enlightening experience. Be careful not to hang around with negative and/or depressing people. I've ruined a few people's acid trips just by being myself.

Did this come about due to selective breeding? It's adorable, which is a definite evolutionary advantage.

Segmentation Fault posted:They give you a pouch of frozen buffalo sauce you're meant to empty into a bowl and microwave for about 15 seconds. They make a strong point about not microwaving the pouch itself which leads me to believe some dumb motherfucker tried that and ended up with a puddle of melted plastic and hot sauce in the middle of their microwave. The amount they give you is so small I ended up throwing some sriracha and italian dressing into it to make it go further. My theory is that somebody microwaved the sauce to boiling and got shot in the face when opening it, leaving them disfigured like the phantom of the opera.

You Are A Elf posted:Come to think of it, I knew nobody that actually had and used 8-track tapes back in the day (it was either records or cassettes), and even though I had a couple of stereos with 8-track players built-in as a kid, I always used one of these bad boys to listen to cassettes (and later, CD players with a tape adapter. An adapter in an adapter! ). One of my most prized childhood posessions was an 8-track of the Star Wars soundtrack. I would listen to it in my parents' Volkswagen bus. Then one day the 8-track, the 8-track player, and all the wheels were stolen from the car.

General Panic posted:Reddit is lovely but some people have far, far too much invested in proving the point, imo. Everything that's lovely about it would just be going on somewhere else on the internet if it didn't exist, and whilst it's funny to point and laugh, that sort of thing gets very, very repetitive after a while. Don't you get it? If we aren't fighting against Reddit 100% of the time, the smug Internet atheists win!
