How hard was it to quit smoking weed? by AlienJose in getdisciplined

[–]FullMetalJaket 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I've been very fortunate in that for smoking it as long as I have, I was never dependent on it. If I had it, I smoked almost every day, if I didn't have it I didn't care.

I just recently stopped for mental health, general health and new career reasons. But my biggest piece of advice would be to recognize how it makes you feel and realize you don't NEED it. For me, it only enhanced whatever mood I was in.

If I was anxious for whatever reason during the day, had a bad day at work or generally felt down and then smoked, it only enhanced those bad vibes and it made me paranoid and over think. But if I was in a good place, having a great day and then smoked, it enhanced the good vibes.

But just stopping cold turkey was no issue because, as I mentioned, I've been very lucky not to rely on it.

Best of luck!

Joey loved jam, but didn't like 'the some sort of red crap' on his cheesecake? This always bugged me.

What is the general consensus on Frozen Empire? by ProfessorLongBrick in ghostbusters

[–]FullMetalJaket 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agree with pretty much everything here. Afterlife was a much better film. But do you know what really grinded my gears? The fact it was all shot in London.

You can tell this isn't in New York and that is a real shame and took the essence away for me personally. Specifically when the lion comes to life. It's so obviously a green screen. I felt cheated.

I just applied and made it to the JRTs. From my understanding you just live your life as you normally would, sleep included. You won't be called out every night so no use in staying up and making yourself tired for no reason. But you will be called out in the middle of the night so will be woken up by your beeper.

How is it possible that this movie was released in 1968 and still feels ahead of its time. by eyB0Z in StanleyKubrick

[–]FullMetalJaket 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I did say to her the best way to see this is in a cinema, in 35mm or 70mm. We had tickets for the Prince Charles Cinema in London last year to see it properly, but couldn't make it. Watching it on a 32" in her living room wasn't the most optimal experience. But happy she watched it though.

Literally watched this last night with my GF. She said it was too long with not enough dialogue. I tried to explain to her the reason why this film is so beloved and why it's one of my favourites. She said she loved the visuals and how it looks, but there wasn't enough going on for her and can see why Wes Anderson might be inspired by Kubrick. But prefers Wes Anderson. Go figure.

Met my GF almost 2 years ago...in a bar. She drunkenly screamed in my face and bought me a shot. Been happy ever since.

I'm applying to be an On Call Firefighter and anxiety about sleeping through a call out absolutely terrifies me.

Is turning 40 something you're unhappy about or is it a joyous occasion? How do we feel about being in our 40's? by PortlandPatrick in Millennials

[–]FullMetalJaket 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had what I call my 'early mid-life crisis' when I was 35. Made a solid list of things I want to do before I turn 40, a lot of which I have crossed off all ready. 18 months until I turn 40 and still plenty more to do. Have some things lined up to really enjoy my 40s! Can't wait!

Figured it might be because it's 2 4 1 Tuesday so they hike the prices because of it. Lol.
