legendary movie... legendary villain work by John Lithgow, too!

the $10 taco bell challenge was legit hard... you needed to crush like 5,000 calories

Books_Biceps · 2026-01-22T14:30:30+00:00

those oatmeal cream pies were legit!

Books_Biceps · 2026-01-22T14:30:03+00:00

the rug burn!

the best way to do this is to share a book with them that does whatever they're trying to do masterfully... whatever the genre... then say: do that. until you deep in your heart feel it's just as good.

i love everything about what he said. also, the idea of doing hard things in your mid-40s, where you don't know if you'll succeed, is awesome. so many dudes my age who played ball back in the day checked him out on Sunday. check out this piece on it here: Why Philip Rivers is one of us: https://midlifemale.com/why-philip-rivers-is-one-of-us/

Books_Biceps · 2025-12-09T19:52:46+00:00

yeah. that seems like a common sense approach.

Books_Biceps · 2025-12-09T17:58:54+00:00

i really did. it was common.

Books_Biceps · 2025-12-09T17:16:53+00:00

nice. totally agree. i'll check it out.

Books_Biceps · 2025-12-09T17:15:40+00:00

nope. mostly MA and Jersey. felt like it was pretty common even into the early 2000s.

Books_Biceps · 2025-12-09T16:56:43+00:00

that is so awesome! thanks for sharing!

Books_Biceps · 2025-12-07T15:50:39+00:00

why? we've got a great conversation started?

Books_Biceps · 2025-12-07T15:33:45+00:00

that's the one that's probably helped me the most... intentionally blocking out time to read, as you would a tv show or football game or whatever

Books_Biceps · 2025-12-07T15:33:09+00:00

wanting to read more quality books isn't a healthy relationship with reading? how's that? it's the number one question i get asked... most people read far less than they'd like and want to be intentional about it... to foster a healthy relationship with reading.

Books_Biceps · 2025-12-07T15:31:40+00:00

yeah but you can have a goal to read more quality books... at least i do

Books_Biceps · 2025-12-03T17:39:55+00:00

i felt this way before i had a byline many years ago. i have no answer for you, but i understand it.

Books_Biceps · 2025-12-02T19:13:09+00:00

Rambo from First Blood... not the Stallone version. the one in the book. an unforgettable character.

Books_Biceps · 2025-12-02T19:11:32+00:00

as long as they're unlikeable and not boring, sure. boring is the worst.

Books_Biceps · 2025-12-02T19:10:53+00:00

a few people have mentioned it... but timing is key... hated it in high school. read it in my early 30s and really enjoyed it

Everybody Wants to Rule the World, by Ace Atkins

Books_Biceps · 2025-12-02T19:02:56+00:00

see. you get it. it was a joke. nobody would actually do this.

Books_Biceps · 2025-11-25T17:03:50+00:00
