about a half dozen of us are doing sober october and it seems to be helping. not tryna tell you what to do, but i was up to either a 12pack of PBR or a half of a fifth of Evan a night at the end of summer, and decided I had to break. already down 2 lbs in october and i am sleeping a lot better. first few days loving suck.

I appreciate this level of self-restraint. I will commit to this after the rest of the booze is gone so I won't buy more. Shouldn't last more than another night max.

I've gone down from a bottle of bourbon each day by limiting myself to one Old Fashioned cocktail and then coasting the remainder of the night on High Lifes;
but a 6pk of the tall boys goes real quickly to my gut - and this is a big improvement for me because it used to be hard to keep weight on so now I have some actual body fat to work with. :shobon:

The Tony Hawk Pro Skater 1 + 2 remake is pretty fun

I know this isn't the games thread but this is really good. I keep forgetting that my skater isn't 100% maxed out yet but it has the feel of the originals and I love it.

funny you mention. i put about thirty pounds on because I developed a severe drinking habit this summer. i'm doing dry october and today after 2 weeks I discovered i'm down one full t-shirt size since october 1st despite eating WAY more than i was in August. i don't have a scale in the house so I don't have numbers but

the beard is also pretty loving big though.

I wish I could grow my hair out like that. I got an undercut a few months back (masked) and it has grown into a wafro and I kinda hate it right now.

We couldn't shoot guns over the weekend because the range was sold-out of all ammo and we couldn't rent any guns without buying their ammo so we left. :(

Lucky gunner had .223 and 9mm in stock so I bought a bit despite the high price, were you looking to try different guns out or don’t currently own one?


We own a .22 and normally go every few weeks to play with other ammo types and different pistols. Since we have a membership, rates are cheaper but we were also low enough on ammo that we would have wasted money on even getting a lane for 30m.

Our office "reopened" last month but you have to 'register' a specific area that you're going to work in and wear a mask while moving between other areas among other sensible precautions.
Two weeks in a row, we have gotten multiple reprimanding emails about people not wearing masks or distancing. I'm never going back to that shithole if I can avoid it. I do miss having a laptop dock, though.
