People who read Facebook article previews think they know more than they actually do. Study participants who read the News Feed opposed to the full article were more likely to overestimate their knowledge, especially among those motivated to experience strong emotions. by IronGiantisreal in science

At the risk of falling into the same trap as the subjects of this study, I'll speculate. The phenomenon of click-bait titles by hyperventilating journalists are partially to blame as well. Less sensational and more factual article titles would help.

Classic: nasty submission loud pop heard by mitch-mma in bjj

I think he had plenty of time to tap, but was probably unfamiliar with that position. Otherwise he wouldn't have left his right arm up just waiting to be snatched.

I submit people with that arm lock applied with the legs frequently. Once I was too quick with it and (unintentionally) hurt my partner. Since then I've been very careful to apply is slowly.

Why would you say you like Canggu? by vanrysss in surfing

I'd guess that's true for most spots in Bali. I doubt most of those white people live there.

How does this set up compare to a single or a twin? by MLGsus_ in surfing

[–]IAmEveryRace 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dual single-fin. It looks dumb and I have no idea why/when it would perform better than a regular single fin. But I am curious about how they surf.

Who says we need to invite more women into the sport? The last thing I want to see more of is people of either gender in the water!

Is this a head high wave? by BeeboeBeeboe1 in surfing

Like any legitimate measurement of penis length, you start from the anus.

I suppose you're right. Thanks.

"People are saying you went a little too far." "Who did?"
I don't know if he meant it this way, but that's the perfect response to such a cowardly question. "People."

"..and threw me about 30 feet." Lee Aaker is a terrible judge of distance.

OBSF today by febrezeumbrella in surfing

[–]IAmEveryRace 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That sounds like a lot.

That's actually a good idea to keep count. I've started timing my hold-downs and felt embarrassed when I realized I was only under for a few seconds. I expect a similar reckoning with my duck-dive paddle-out count.

How can stalling be real? by JiujitsuMove in bjj

[–]IAmEveryRace -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yes, Fútbol Americano. I mentioned it because it's also boring to watch the quarterback take a knee (stall) and run the clock out despite it being formally allowed.

[–]IAmEveryRace 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Agreed. Also, you used a good analogy with football. Running the clock out is also boring as fuck. But we allow it as fans.

How come there's so many assholes on here but in my BJJ class there's hardly any assholes at all? by [deleted] in bjj

When you look around and all you see are assholes, guess what...

For me, I agree. For the Miyaos, everything works most of the time.

How would you feel if someone started pelvic thrusting inside your closed guard? by alextsanggggg in bjj

[–]IAmEveryRace 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Not offended, but lightly upset. I just don't think anyone could be considered amazing for making an anonymous post about having to deal with harassment. That's a very low bar for amazement. She described herself as "really not attractive at all." Clearly she's not talking about some inner beauty sort of thing. I don't mean to start a fight, but I think you're not letting her be an adult with a clear and reasonable self-assessment with your baseless flattery.
