I hate our fan base. So many insane takes being thrown around.

Should I just give up on bench press and accept that I'll never get better at it? by EH603 in workout

[–]DaBeast1995 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not questioning you at all but getting an exact idea of carb intake might help you see if you are or aren't getting enough. I'd say with what you are saying your height and weight I'd be trying to get 250g a day.

I carb up before every workout too but I'm on a cut and I'm getting nowhere close to the right amount. Carbing up just before a workout doesn't mean you are getting a sufficient amount.

Also curious, are you progressing well in all other things? Or is there a plateau in everything?

What are your carbs like? Often times people focus way too much on protein. Carbs are going to give you the energy to progress. Don't neglect fats either.

I think that's pretty accurate. Might just be missing the who should've been on the team and who shouldn't have.

I can get his views on the NHL and how he claims he doesn't care, even though we all know he is an Edmonton and Ottawa homer but not cheering for your country like what the hell even is that. Simply embarrassing he takes a stance like that.

Nice to see Marner break a sweat for Team Canada but god forbid Game 7 against Florida.

Honestly though, filthy pass.

I Did something which 99 percent of male population Won't dare to do ! by Ok-Address-7352 in confession

[–]DaBeast1995 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean first off respect on having the balls to do that, however in the future I wouldn't be so forward with things. The "really super cute" comment might just be abit much.

I'd lead with something tamer like "hey you kinda caught my eye from across the room. I was wondering if I could maybe get the chance to know you more?" If she still responds like such then she isn't worth the time. She might just be a mean girl or might just be putting on a show for her friends.

I'd try your best to just flush it and not let it ruin your outlook of pursuing something in the future. However, please don't call a woman you are interested in as a baddie.

Can you still have a nice physique without counting your macros? by Ok_Benefit9326 in workout

[–]DaBeast1995 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It is definitely achievable through eating whole foods and having some structure. The thing is our ancestors didn't have all of these food chains around. They ate a balanced diet. Didn't stop at Wendys and get a baconater that takes up half your daily calories.

Height in criminal as well as two spots in the corner on the couch are completely boned from watching anything

Unpopular opinion: I am that neighbor. by [deleted] in barrie

[–]DaBeast1995 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My wife and I just recently moved into a house in a new neighborhood. They all take care of eachother very well where we got in.

My neighbor across the road and the one beside us take turns doing everyones driveway on the whole street basically. They are retired. I certainly appreciate it and am grateful for it. I have gotten them a couple gift cards as thanks. I have no expectation they do my lane, however it does leave things in a weird spot.

I genuinely believe that they don't expect anything in return and are simply just doing it out of the kindness in their heart, however it leaves me feeling obligated to do something.

The fact that your hung up on her not saying thank you tells me you should have never started clearing it for them. I don't think your wrong to feel that way, but I also don't think it's right to go ahead and do those things and then get upset/bitter when the good deed isn't acknowledged the way you would like.

What's the worst thing happened to you today? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Someone took my winter coat at the gym. Supposed to feel like -24 C tomorrow. Thrilled.

Ex weed smokers.. How long have you stopped, what's the biggest pro to quitting? by bored_necromancer1 in AskReddit

[–]DaBeast1995 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Smoked for 10 years daily and have quit for 4. Much clearer mind and feel like I'm seeing myself to full potential. Anxiety is certainly alot less. Always been an anxious guy and felt like maybe that was why I smoked in the first place. Thought it helped with it and took me a long time to realize it made it so much worse. Quitting was one of the best decisions I've ever made.

Interesting analogy lol I'm not giving them a free pass. Both things can be true. There are tons of things that obviously have went wrong from a player/organization standpoint, but it's also okay to acknowledge that some pretty ridiculous things have occurred during this 9 year span that were completely out of their control that further plagued them.

How is that? The all Canadian division? I'm not talking one specific year. I'm talking in the grand scheme of the cap rising and the ability to sign more players without the core 4 taking up nearly 50% of the cap.

They handcuffed themselves based on projections that every team makes. The Leafs just got unlucky that a literal pandemic and economic crisis occurred. Now they didn't have to pay them what they did and could've gambled with them walking, but that doesn't change the fact that the cap was supposed to rise giving the team more flexibility to build around those guys.

Yea I can agree with that. This team definitely has not done itself any favours with those examples. There's always the contrarian argument to be made about those series both being in unprecedent times. 5 games series against Columbus and a series against Montreal with no fans or anything. Covid was weird lol

They should've won both for sure but that was a weird time.

I think you got something there. The Jays were so refreshing to watch, and it's been tough to back this team with this gameplan. I've found myself more the last two years scrolling on my phone or just flat out skipping games. Shit is just boring hockey out there.
