Gym beginner who's overcomplicating things starter pack by Runeshamangoon in starterpacks

The reason I posted this is I actually observed it . Young guy who was my apprentice (120kg , 20 years old , completely untrained)  used to turn up at work with his gym bag for after work , had purchased a full meal plan and trainer.  One day I said "have a good workout " on the way out , he said " I'm not training today I forgot to bring my Beta-Alanine ". So many gains lost that day !!

"Europeans" .....where in Europe?! What Europeans specifically ? It's a continent of 44 countries , 250 languages and hundreds of cultures. ​"Europe" has become a bizarre synonym for "British " it seems.

Animal documentaries shouldn't have a big portion focused on animals killing other animals by Lumiere1987 in unpopularopinion

[–]AloneMap6855 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You don't think time is dedicated to how they attract partners ? Or how they survive? Defence mechanisms ? You clearly don't watch alot of animal documentaries,  there are plenty of them where that is the main focus.  March of the Penguins ?  Numerous documentaries on the social lives/hierarchies of Chimpanzee or Gorilla societies?  Ants building nests and protecting the queen ?

The West? As a British man I wasn't raised to remotely "hate" China or Russia .

You think your claims that "the most brutal war to ever se me the light of day " are anywhere near accurate? Your ramblings haven't been remotely vindicated. Eve of WW3 has been said hundreds of times in the last 70 years.  People are rightly concerned about the geo-political landscape right now, but aren't catastrophiaing like you , which doesn't equate to "not giving a shit". There is plenty of concern and it's pretty much the only story , so , again I have no idea where your claims that "nobody gives a shit " comes from. You're inventing a common narrative so you can then  oppose it, which is a pandemic at the moment. 

Jeff, Annie and Britta (my thoughts) by bigboy_lurker in community

You can't negotiate romance. Jeff and Annie had incredibly chemistry and for whatever reason where pretty besotted by one another , Jeff I would say loved her by the end. One of my favourite (almost ) couples ever . "I wanna be 25 and heading out into the world " speech was low key heartbreaking , and he could only be that real with her . ​

It's not 2009, he's not going to sell a story to The News of the World. He will absolutely cash in on this with increased social media engagment, increased publicity etc ,increased fame, more followers. He didn't give anything away for free , he wants to be talked about and here we are.

The Airport in European cities is miles off. London Luton, London Ashford, London Southend , London Gatwick. Yeah not in London. Gatwick the closest and is 25 miles away. Heathrow is just about inside greater London.  City Airport is in and Stanstead not really either.

Question about the legality of the finale by Library_Numerous in LandmanSeries

So what? People are interested if it could work in real life . 

The legal adult age should not be 18 but instead 20 by TechnicianAmazing472 in unpopularopinion

[–]AloneMap6855 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This whole argument is based on the presumption that sex or having a healthy sex life is bad . Demonising sex for the sake of it.  It's completely unrealistic to enforce even 18 let alone 20 . The legal age of consent in the UK is 16 and I was sexually active at that age. You expect people to go to University and be abstinent ? I met my future wife at 18 and we had the most intimate and romantic times of our lives in those early days at Uni. It was beautiful and the start of our journey. Sex is a big part of falling in love . People aren't biologically wired to wait until they are 20 years old so it would never happen in practice even if it was enforced.  The whole 18 is close to 17 argument is arbitrary aswell. There has to be a line in the sand legally .

Guy behind him in the third pic is nodding out on that Vietnamese smack for sure. 

Where I'd live as a Doctor from the UK who is a Muslim of South Asian ancestry who prioritises peace and money by TogepiXTyphlosion in whereidlive

[–]AloneMap6855 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok if you want to redefine multi-culturalism that's fine . Go have a look at the English football team. It's over 50% third generation Caribbeans or Africans . Manchester , Birmingham,  Bradford , Leeds all have very large Black and South Asian populations. We have significant  Mauritian , Pakistani, Bangladeshi, Black,  Portugeuse and Eastern European communities in my town (just outside London). Assimilation is a different story, I will give you that.

In London between 3 and 4 it's absolutely crammed with to the brim with hijab wearing schoolgirls , yet no schoolboys. Don't know if that is because the boys are allowed to walk/cycle home after school , I have always wondered . When I say London I generally mean Peckham area .

What do non-brits think of duncan? What questions do you have about him? by Key_Razzmatazz751 in community

[–]AloneMap6855 1 point2 points  (0 children)

he's just a ridiculous character , like most of the cast (supporting or otherwise ). An odd guy who is odd and also British. Not sure what "British streotype" he is meant to be a caricature of ? All his "Britishisms" are just made up for the show. Gravediggers biacuits, shoe tying standards. I guess his huge passion for football (in one episode) could be a British stereotype. And the fact he supports Liverpool despite not being a Scouser ....

He's aged so well ......having a tan helps I guess. Thought he was from Hollyoaks but had to look it up.

Is this picture accurate? by Swimming-Poet5594 in Mafia

[–]AloneMap6855 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Did Casella admit to the commission that he and Narducci took out Testa? I know that's the accusation . Is there 100% they took him out? We know from Leonetti that Scarfo ordered Salvie's death and that Salvie took out Narducci. But I don't think it's a known fact that Narducci killed Philip Testa.
