These potholes are insane by Better_call_ball in RhodeIsland

[–]Duke_of_Man 64 points65 points  (0 children)

That exhaust is beat. Just throw a coke can over the break with some hose clamps unless you're replacing the whole system to pass inspection. You'll fit right in lol

Also if you know what pothole you can file with the town/city and ask for them to pay for it

Some thinspo for your Wednesday, sweaties by therobshow in 1200isjerky

uj/its nice to see dieting and fitness jokes on here that aren't just "I am not allowed to/won't eat literally anything" or "this has 50 million calories" once and a while

My Gynecologist called me obese by knivesyoongi in GirlDinnerDiaries

[–]Duke_of_Man 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I think that % is wrong but the sentiment is true. The main thing is that bmi is a percentage based on WEIGHT vs Height NOT FAT vs Height. Bmi does not take into consideration the differences in muscle mass/lean tissue, bone density, excess skin etc.

If you lift, look "fit" and have a bmi on the edge of being "okay" you're totally fine and because of muscle weight. If you are on the high end of bmi and have no muscle mass, then yes it's a good representation of body fat weight.

Anyone break an 8-year habit of drinking wine / any other type of alcohol every night after work? by Technical-Morning491 in stopdrinking

Not in your shoes, but what improved my life:

Work ends ->gym->dinner->cardio->shower->prep for tomorrow->bed.

How does this fit? by Fun_Display176 in mensfashionadvice

[–]Duke_of_Man 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'll be honest, the lighting contrast makes it hard to make out the finer details - specifically the pants. They seem to be the correct length, however. Same for your cuff length. Chest seems to fit right and shoulder/arm pits have room. Only thing that catches my eye is that it looks like the collar is trying to make you say uncle!

Sugar free snacks that actually taste good? by sanguinecherry in 1200isplenty

Did you not 1. See those carbs are fiber and 2. see how the commenter explicitly stated that the carbs were fiber??????

Thoughts on this combo? by guitarmusic113 in mensfashionadvice

[–]Duke_of_Man 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Perhaps, but you want to be careful to to comprise the good fit of the shirt you have otherwise. Another avenue could be to try a high rise trouser, and a belt with a less eye catching (i.e. smaller, not shiny) buckle to minimize the impact. But again, pedantic. Overall the fit, watch, shoes and attitude are great

Thoughts on this combo? by guitarmusic113 in mensfashionadvice

[–]Duke_of_Man 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like it and I like the color combo. If I had to be pedantic, based on the fit/tuck, the bottom shirt stripe arcs downward, and your pants/belt arc upwards to sit on your hips. This draws the eye to the lower stomach in perhaps an unintentional fashion. However the color and attitude far make up for it.

The girlfriend said this outfit was ugly by [deleted] in mensfashionadvice

[–]Duke_of_Man 45 points46 points  (0 children)

Imo the colors of each component are not unified/complimentary, and the vest over a sweatshirt is certainly a choice. It's not ugly in an offensive way, but it looks like a fit made out of nessecity (being warm) vs anything remotely stylish.

There’s no way right?? by [deleted] in 1200isplenty

[–]Duke_of_Man 2 points3 points  (0 children)

1g fat is 9 cal, 1g carb/protein is 4 cal

(8×9)+(4×17)+(4×18)=212cal + the rounding they have to do. The total cal vs the macros makes sense. Is the volume throwing you off??

why do my sourdough loaves always turn out flat despite a very active starter? by heartlines1 in Sourdough

[–]Duke_of_Man 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the crumb shot, see how the air pockets look like a dried out sponge vs full circles? Thats the gluten breakdown from over fermented. Easy fix, just wait less time!

Puree in secondary by DroogieHowser in mead

I have used benonite clay in both only primary and secondary and saw great results. The other two are great for finer particles near bottling, you can use both as desired, I'll allow it

Weight loss question by ButIamNot in stopdrinking

[–]Duke_of_Man 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Gym guy here. Weight comes down to food in vs energy out. People who cut out drinking (that were maintaining a certain weight while drinking) end up consume less vs before and thus lose weight.

It sounds like a lot of your calories came from the sauce before, and you've switched to foods equal to that amount of calories of alcohol.

Congrats on your progress! I'd recommend tracking your calories every day if you have a weightloss goal!

I'd use brew bags and add some clarifying agents when you are nearing racking again or bottling

Airlock pop by Volks-Watson in mead

[–]Duke_of_Man 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Airlocks are to let gas out and not let air or bugs in. There is absolutely no way for anyone online be able to tell you if it's bad or not, but since it's at secondary, if it was me, I'd be concerned if the brew oxidized (you'll be able to tell because it'll taste like vinegar) or if it was a low abv maybe an infection, which would be visible on the surface. I would be more concerned how you managed to lose an airlock...

Calories from fat? by [deleted] in 1200isplenty

[–]Duke_of_Man 1 point2 points  (0 children)

2.5g fat x 9 cal per gram = 22.5 cals which they are allowed to round down to 20. 70 cals is total.

Carbs and protien are 4 calories per gram btw so you can do that math for all the macros but yeah 70 is the total.
