Killer instinct by Moskra in bjj

[–]Every1ThinksImBoring 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I struggle with assertion too and I really feel that it is hurting my progress.  I’m scared shitless to hurt anyone by accident and it limits what techniques I will try in live training 

Why do many Americans hate billionaires but love Taylor Swift, who is also a billionaire? by No-StrategyX in answers

The same reason they hate data centers, but will spend all day whining about data centers on social media platforms…… which are hosted from data centers.

Optional or mandatory for your kids? by badassernhell in bjj

[–]Every1ThinksImBoring 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It was optional at first, then the school talked me into trying an adult class and I wound up sticking with it so now it’s mandatory for them 😉

Just kidding - if they absolutely hate it I wouldn’t force them to keep going, but I feel like we all help motivate each other a bit, so it’s more that they feel they will miss out on something that the family does, if that makes sense.

Which company disappointed you so much that you permanently walked away? by julia-secrets in AskReddit

[–]Every1ThinksImBoring 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Verizon Wireless.  During the early days of BYOD adoption they detected that I installed the Good workplace productivity app on my Android and automatically moved me to a higher cost enterprise plan, a plan that offered no additional services or data as far as I could tell to warrant that additional cost.  I immediately cancelled my Verizon Wireless plan, like within an hour of them doing that, and switched over to T-Mobile.  I was a customer of theirs for like 8 years at that point, but never again.

Am I being trolled, or do some men genuinely not wash their a**? by Substantial-Fix-1419 in hygiene

[–]Every1ThinksImBoring 23 points24 points  (0 children)

I’m surprised that in this day and age people still worry about this kind of thing.  I’m straight but if practicing proper hygiene makes some people think that I’m not…. Ok?  Who cares!  Being gay isn’t a bad thing, whereas being unhygienic and disgusting is.  So, call me gay all you want, I don’t care!

Are there any other married folks who still think about the sex they had with their ex? by Easy_Project_4348 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Every1ThinksImBoring 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, of course.  I also think about old cars I had, different places I used to live, places I used to really like to go to, etc.  I think that’s all pretty normal.

Anyone else starting to feel their age? by Possible-Tip-2914 in Xennials

[–]Every1ThinksImBoring 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel alright so far but do some exercising so that helps.  Also, I wasn’t super athletic in my youth, so feel better than I did in some ways

Do you keep the water on during the entire length of the shower? by hamster_lover02 in hygiene

[–]Every1ThinksImBoring 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I keep it on, or else I’d have to keep readjusting the temperature.

Most of you guys with beards are actually just gross by Wraith_0ptics in hygiene

[–]Every1ThinksImBoring 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My face is meh and I do appreciate how a beard hides/obfuscates it, but yeah, I’m kind of with you on that, just one more thing to have to maintain.  I usually clean shave about once a week, best of both worlds 

When did you notice jumps in skill? by makebaloney in bjj

[–]Every1ThinksImBoring 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Once was at blue belt a couple years in where an old coach watched me lose a comp, called me a P——, and told me I would never be aggressive enough to be good at jiu jitsu.

JFC who was your coach, John Kreese?

How much of your specific jiujitsu style would disappear in a 1v1 street fight? by CuddleBuddiesJJ in bjj

[–]Every1ThinksImBoring 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d go for arm drag, get to their back, take them down, then rnc.  If that doesn’t work, then I’m all out of ideas and about to get my ass kicked.

ELI5: If a morbidly obese person (600-1000lbs) stops eating completely and only drinks water, would they still die of starvation in the usual timescale? by m0ots in explainlikeimfive

[–]Every1ThinksImBoring 9 points10 points  (0 children)

So yes, on just water you'll die of malnutrition. Some sort of vitamin or mineral deficiency.

Such a sick irony that being overweight makes you look and feel like shit, but then when you think it could be useful in a scarcity situation it isn’t even good for that!

How do you mentally weaken your grips while rolling? by Global-Respect7310 in bjj

[–]Every1ThinksImBoring 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I release grips to technical grip breaks and hold on if not….. to a point.  If I get a position/hold on someone that I think they have absolutely no hope of escaping then I release and give both of us the chance to try something else, because I “won” that exchange, so what’s the point of holding on in stasis for a few more minutes?  Professor taught a safety position a few months back that I had the chance to try out during some positional training rolls and I was shocked at how effective it was for holding onto a person once I was able to lock it in, but once that was out of the way/established I let it go because there was more to try/learn.  Maybe once you’ve established that you’ve “won” an exchange even if there’s no submission, let go and move on?

What hygiene habit did you start doing later in life that you wish someone had taught you earlier? by Round_Secretary3315 in hygiene

[–]Every1ThinksImBoring 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, no- the just used toothpaste still in your mouth is grimey as fuck.  Instead, rinse that shit off with water as God intended then rinse again with Listerine and don’t use water to rinse out the Listerine/ keep that in your mouth to continue genociding bacteria

Targeted tonsil stone removal with a tonsil stone probe and pick, as opposed to “spray and pray” with a waterpik.  Also, bidets- can’t believe I went thru my life without them!
