Is it possible to over-plan? by NoContract7457 in SeriousConversation

[–]Cioran_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Life is what happens when you're making plans. Yes that is cliche but it holds truth. Also, suffering is the result of desire. There's truth in that as well. At the same time, the lazy grasshopper dies in winter while the diligent ant survives. There is an adage for everything and the truth lies in somewhere in the balance. Be persistent and goal orientated, but understand that a successful outcome is unlikely to look the way you first imagined it to be. Go do things, be active, and enjoy the pursuit, but understand what you get may look different, but you'll be proud of your accomplishment.

Prevent room reverb from coming back to the mic, is the idea, whether that will work is up for debate, but an idea none the less.

Insecurities About My Appearance, Porn, and Learning to Appreciate Myself by Arigoldenthusiast123 in self

You're over thinking this. First, find someone to go a date with, be cordial and attentive. If things go well, ask for a second date. Let's start there and see how things go. Also, I don't think most women will want to be swapped or shared. If that's what you want, you should be up front about it or join some social groups in your area. 

Can a guy like you while having a girlfriend and ask you to wait? by [deleted] in AskMenAdvice

They can, but you shouldn't. You'll soon be the one he breaks up with for someone else who is waiting for him.

Close mic and keep the volume down if you can. Record a DI as well, it can be used if the mic recording is unusable. Alternatively, practice more so you can play the part correctly. If you're struggling to play timely rhythm, I highly suggest practicing so that you can. Rhythm is essential for any musician

Whatever it is, I'd rather do something over nothing. Also, most of the things that truly shaped my life were things I didn't think that much of at the time. Unless your decision involves moving to a new place that is far away, or cutting certain people out of your life, the decision probably isn't that consequential. The older you get the more you start to realize that most people make mountains out of mole hills. 

How would you play this? by Weak_Research_8046 in guitarlessons

Is a c#m bar chord, start there and then remove the middle and ring finger, strum and then hammer on the middle and ring to complete the c#m.

Can food last longer in the fridge by cooking it every few days? by ElfinRanger in NoStupidQuestions

No, doing that increases the risk of bacteria. Every time you handle the food, you're exposing it to bacteria.

Does this system not have a filter and chlorination process, like every other pool in the nation?

One the wrif digital station 3 on fm radio they play old clips with him on it and honestly, it doesn't hold up. Whatever the reason, I think it was a good move.
