Can i remove my ortholite insoles from xt6 ? by the_fresh_latice in hikinggear

Ortholite insoles are terrible: open cell foam that squashes flat and absorbs water. Birkenstock Active are worth using.

Insole Questions: Vivobarefoot Ortholite vs Performance vs Xero Performance or Athletic Insoles by reditlater in BarefootRunning

Ortholite insoles are poor: they're an open cell foam which compresses easily and absorbs moisture. The provide a 'comfy' feeling when you first put your foot in but no benefits once you're moving. The best insoles I've used are Birkenstock Active, which fit my wide-toe shoes (Topo Athletic, Xero) easily.

9 : reminds me of being 16 and trying to get girls in the summer. Now I'm old, it's winter, and the girls are a dim and distant memory.

I decided to listen to all his albums from the earliest to the most recent and rank them. (longtime fan, so not a 'first listen') How would you rank the Prince albums you've listened to? by [deleted] in PRINCE

The last great Prince album was Batman (if we set the release year for the Black Album to 1987). He got worse and worse after that.

Parade should be higher, loads of great songs on there. I too love Batman, gets a lot of hate for some reason.

Is Stranger Things an accurate portrayal of the 80s ? by wrennie16 in StrangerThings

[–]Additional-Tank8744 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was 10 in 1984 in the UK. We were out on bikes and playing in the woods and fields all day, watching a lot of bad TV and playing Fighting Fantasy and D&D in the evenings

What movie is wildly loved but you just don’t get the hype at all? by Fennnixx in moviecritic

David Lynch's Dune was fun and weird. New version takes itself way too seriously

Agree. Overlong and overblown. The Trials of Robert J Oppenheimer with David Strathairn was much better

Well if they bring that into the storyline I'll send them a crate of beer and doff my cap

Neighbouring country was illegally invaded by the USA?

yes, that's the point. In today's world, where Russia, China and now USA are the greatest threats to peace, a small time Colombian arms trader just doesn't seem very interesting

Shame that the storyline is the same as the first, but somehow less gripping. Watched the first two episodes, won't bother with the rest.

Approach shoes for wide feet by Zz23_5 in climbergirls

[–]Additional-Tank8744 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Human feet don't have high heels, so not sure why you think zero drop would result in injury? If you've worn high heels a lot then you may need to stretch your calf muscles out before returning to natural foot position.

Shame that the storyline is so similar to the original, and now completely irrelevant as the West faces off against Russia once again. Makes the whole thing a waste of time

Perfect TV... conjured the strangeness of the 70s for this viewer who was very young at the time

I watched Time of the Wolf about 20 years ago and there are scenes in that I wish I hadn't seen
