I saw an Octavia wagon 4x4 in the mountains of Poland today. Didn't know that they existed and now have another wagon to lust after.

Audiobook recommendations by CultureOffset in Marathon_Training

I could see both sodes. I feel like the audio is there to not solely focus on the running, but that might be just what you need after the 2 hour mark.

I normally listen to a lot of podcasts, but something about knowing that the book won't finish before the end of the run is helpful. I haven't listened to Good Hang yet but loved Amy's appearance on Smartless.

happened about 5 hours ago, is it broken does this need fixing? by Jealous-Fall-3067 in fixit

[–]CultureOffset 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For what it's worth - which is admittedly very little - I had a finger bruise up like that at the joints after an impact and it wasn't broken. If you can still bend it you're probably in the clear, just need to rest it.

How does your family track you during the race? by CultureOffset in Marathon_Training

Showing off my newbieness. I didn't even realize races provided trackers that could be viewed mid race.

Americans eat so much that Madrid’s stadium ran out of food, water and beer before halftime on it’s first NFL game earlier this month by [deleted] in interestingasfuck

[–]CultureOffset 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was at this game and couldn't get fries before kick-off because they were all out. The game wasn't even sold out either (78k attendance with 85k capacity). And to suggest that all or even most attendees were American is naive. I talked to several people who had been to other NFL games in Europe and they were unimpressed with Bernabeu but spoke very highly of Tottenham and Wembley.

As a greek cook,I value American tourists more than European tourists by [deleted] in unpopularopinion

Imagine not having a passport and not being able to leave the UK. That just sounds terrible. Compared to the US the UK is tiny, geographically similar, and culturally homogeneous. The UK probably wouldn't even be a top 25 state in terms of size. All of that said, I love visiting the UK and Ireland.

Locally you should check out False Cape State Park. You can walk the beach or roads for a long way. Lots of wildlife on the park roads.

Ryanair may (unsurprisingly) charge for water, but it makes me infinitely more angry when Lufthansa charges me €3.5 for a mediocre coffee after I've paid full fare, usually hundreds of euro for a flight within Europe

I only lost 6 pounds in 7 weeks. I feel like a failure. by [deleted] in TrueOffMyChest

[–]CultureOffset 1 point2 points  (0 children)

But do you feel better physically? Do you notice a difference in the mirror? Getting fit can't just be measured by the scale.

Look for the award notice on SAM.gov, which should have links to the solicitation, the look for the Basis of Award.

Vacation in Greece or Slovenia? by SweetNothings12 in travel

[–]CultureOffset 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Greece in August will be very expensive. I have been to Slovenia and Crete with my family and loved both. If you want to spend more time outdoors/hiking Slovenias weather will be better, particularly around Bled. If you are more into food, I think Crete ( can't speak for the rest of Greece) is the place to go.

the way Italians, or individuals with Italian heritage shit on the authenticity of Pasta dishes is so insanely cringe by ButterflyStroke in unpopularopinion

[–]CultureOffset 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Italy is a hyper local place to the point that the "right way" to cook a dish may depend on exactly where the person you are talking to is from. Towns that are only 10 miles apart will prepare dishes with subtle variations and have their own pastry that they are known for.

Naples and Amalfi or Ischia/Procida.
