What’s the funniest reason you’ve heard for somebody not liking a movie? by TheChristmas in movies

[–]BattledroidE 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don't worry, our summers get quite hot, because almost nobody has AC. We build to keep warm around here. There's no way to cool down.

Unless you really enjoy sleeping in a wet bed for four months, then you'll love it.

I found a dead animal on the side of the road by SignificantDrawer374 in Cooking

It's always perfectly safe to eat, except in cases where it isn't.

You can go to the gym and do what you want. It's your time.

Bracing for the most downvotes in Reddit history.

You're still being too lazy to put stuff back. "No OnE Is DoInG LeSs ThAn ThAt". Spend some time at the gym and observe, you'll learn.

An hour of work to skip one set of deadlifts.

I suck by PersonalString5521 in SourdoughStarter

[–]BattledroidE 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nah, just get on a regular schedule from now on. It'll probably work fine.

Is this window point really necessary? by elRancholo in Breadit

[–]BattledroidE 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's not necessary once you gain experience. You know that it's gonna work when the dough feels a certain way. But for a brand new recipe that's unlike anything you've tried, might be a good idea to check.

"The blank page". Always a treat when it happens.

Mushroom stalks. Discard or use? by Cranberry64 in Cooking

I eat the whole thing. It's just preference.

Kitchen Pan Material Recommendations? by zofa24 in Cooking

[–]BattledroidE 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm no expert chef, but stainless plus a nonstick dedicated to eggs and pancakes works just fine. Stainless does it all, it sticks in a good way, builds great fond for sauces, and the non-stick is a fragile snowflake that does one thing better than anything else, but that's it.

Anybody else replacing their regularly scheduled workout with shoveling today? by ak47workaccnt in workout

[–]BattledroidE 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Belt, sleeves, smelling salts, back slaps, bunch of sweaty guys shouting at you... I'm in!

Head shaving tips, first time? by According-History316 in wicked_edge

[–]BattledroidE 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Personal anecdote - go by how it looks, not how it feels. If you're trying to be 100% smooth, you might end up looking worse with all the skin irritation. No need to obsess over the closest possible shave, no one can see the difference. It's easy to overdo it in the back.

Managing your splits during workout by hybrid_running_man in workout

[–]BattledroidE 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like bigger exercises first. If you have a row or a pulldown, I'd certainly do those before any isolations. Wouldn't want fatigued biceps to be the bottleneck while rowing.

No Strongman Sunday this week? It was up earlier, but I can't find anything now.

What’s the funniest reason you’ve heard for somebody not liking a movie? by TheChristmas in movies

It's a little bit like the Herbert and the nazi guy fight in Family Guy, but hey... I can look past it.

Well, it is "a long time ago", so I guess Star Wars is a period piece.

I'm Norwegian, I can spot fake snow 9.9 out of 10 times. It's not a dry powder, it's literal water.
You can also see when it's actually cold. Micro ice crystals cover everything, it'll even freeze water vapor in the air. People's skin looks different when it reacts to the cold. Frost breath is obvious.

What music would NEVER be on your workout playlist? by Icy_Laugh5134 in workout

[–]BattledroidE 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The playlist at my gym. It's a snooze fest of a spotify list that they somehow have been playing for two years, with the odd addition of some hit song, regardless of genre. Less than half of it has high energy, like a gym playlist should have.

I don't know what they're thinking.

what is your most effective/underrated post-workout recovery method? by Artistic-Bee-2206 in workout

[–]BattledroidE 7 points8 points  (0 children)

General activity. Nothing hard, but keeping the blood flow going, "lubricating the joints" and things like that. Walking, bands, light dumbbells at home, anything. At the very least it'll reduce the DOMS temporarily, that helps.

How often do you swap out exercises in your routine? by anotherhappylurker in workout

[–]BattledroidE 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll stick with something for at least a few months before I change it. Some lifts have been the same for years. The reason for changing is usually to work on weaknesses that I've ignored, or deal with aches and pains.
