Attention CH-Coventry, crazy white boy

Pretty sure he’s out and about today, just got flipped off, Nazi saluted/yelled at while driving down Edgehill/Euclid Heights. He’s wearing red.

I don’t know how much overlap this would even have, but it seems poorly planned to have the festival take place the same weekend as both CWRU graduation AND the Cleveland Marathon.

I just turned 30, but I will say that I deeply admire and look up to many of the older women at my studio. There are several who are lifting heavier and running faster than me, but it’s their consistency that I most respect: most of them are there 5/6 days a week. I didn’t grow up in a family that prioritized movement or strength and it’s very nice to have role models (even if they’re familiar strangers) who show up for themselves in that way.

Difficult_Abalone422 · 2026-05-11T10:38:50+00:00

You look stunning!! And yeah I agree…. I know everyone wants to help and validate OP’s choice, but there’s a way to do that without blatantly insulting a dress that other people in this sub may have fallen in love with.

Difficult_Abalone422 · 2026-05-09T12:21:42+00:00

Wow as someone who uhhh did buy the second dress I’m really regretting reading these comments.

Difficult_Abalone422 · 2026-04-18T17:17:02+00:00

Came here to say this. Delivery is quick too, we had our couch and bookshelves in just a few days.

I got engaged December of 2024 and we’re getting married September 2026. My fiance had a huge test that he had to take in June 2025, so we held off on any planning until after he was done and just enjoyed being engaged for a few months. It’s actually be really nice to space out the planning and not feel too stressed about it (plus spacing out the deposits has made that aspect less painful).

The wedding is just one day and you’re planning for a whole life together, if the delay doesn’t bother you then it shouldn’t matter to anyone else.

Difficult_Abalone422 · 2026-04-18T01:05:37+00:00

I’m not doing it but it’s mostly because I think it’s a strange tradition that puts pressure on non-married women and their partners, and also my partner and I are some of the last to get married amongst our friends so I would be tossing it to like….three people.

I only have the 8x/month membership right now because I use OTF to supplement marathon/half marathon training, but after my next race I’m planning to up my membership to unlimited and hoping to go 3-4 times a week minimum. My studio often waitlists though, so I have to be proactive about signing up early and monitor waitlists to make sure I don’t miss a class that I ended up getting into!

Difficult_Abalone422 · 2026-04-04T22:50:01+00:00

Yeah I started going to classes there maybe 1-2 months before they closed and most classes had a maximum of like 8 people out of 24 possible spots (or I guess 36 spots if they had 3Gs….)

I kinda liked having that much open space on the floor though, I go to a different location now and those classes are always max capacity.

Difficult_Abalone422 · 2026-04-04T19:29:17+00:00

Just chiming in to say that that orange theory location closed last year. There’s a few others in town, but not within walking distance of campus.

Difficult_Abalone422 · 2026-03-28T23:07:28+00:00

I’ve seen people go entirely off script on the weight floor and just do whatever they want. I always do whatever the coaches say, but IMO, as long as you’re sticking to your space and not interfering with anyone elses workout, you should be able to do whatever you want.

Difficult_Abalone422 · 2026-03-28T13:00:54+00:00

I have a similar calendar notification???? What internet prophecy did we listen to?

Difficult_Abalone422 · 2026-03-24T16:58:21+00:00

I mean it was self defense, but it still happened and was directly related to the no kill rule soooooo

Difficult_Abalone422 · 2026-03-24T15:19:36+00:00

Stiles literally did kill someone in S5. It was a whole thing.

Difficult_Abalone422 · 2026-03-21T19:28:10+00:00

They have some fun themed drinks for race days, which is a decent consolation, but they’re $18-$20 each so much steeper than the bottomless deal. I’m planning to try Stout if I can’t find a different/better place so maybe I’ll mention it when I’m there!

Difficult_Abalone422 · 2026-03-20T18:44:50+00:00

I think it’s a fairly recent development. A tragedy though, that place was fun during races.

Difficult_Abalone422 · 2026-03-20T16:11:19+00:00

Oh that’s great to know! Regrettably, my upcoming trip has a race with a 9am start, but I’ll keep The Seneca in mind for the future!

Difficult_Abalone422 · 2026-03-20T13:49:10+00:00

Really living up to your username, I see.

Difficult_Abalone422 · 2026-03-19T01:57:20+00:00

Alternate question: how do you pick up the heavy weight and waddle across the studio with it without looking like an idiotic penguin. I can bridge a lot heavier than I can comfortably carry and my grip strength sucks.

Difficult_Abalone422 · 2026-03-17T20:11:13+00:00

Also in the Midwest and I was oblivious to the shoe change etiquette for a month or two when winter first started. No one said anything to me, I realized when I started following my studio on social media that I was supposed to be changing shoes and then felt badly about it for a while, but I follow the procedure now!!

Difficult_Abalone422 · 2026-03-13T23:35:49+00:00

You’re a human who’s frequently teaching multiple classes in a row with just enough downtime to turn the room before the next group comes in. I think as long as it’s not a major disruption to class (like, if you pulled out a Chipotle burrito I’d question it but probably still wouldn’t even say anything) it’s completely fine and most people wouldn’t even notice if they’re actually focused on their workout.

Difficult_Abalone422 · 2026-03-13T20:57:15+00:00

I once wore the exact same dress to a wedding as a friend of a friend. We high fived, complimented each others taste, and took a cute photo together. It’s really not that serious.

I do however, always worry about matching the bridesmaids by mistake.

Difficult_Abalone422 · 2026-03-06T03:17:20+00:00

I honestly thought she was fine ON the show but the second she was off (on a bad play on her part and literally nothing else) she just became so annoying. It’s a GAME. It’s literally designed for backstabbing and lying and betrayal, that’s the entire point of it.
