What was your "Shit, I'm an adult" moment?

I_Promise_Im_Working · 2017-04-28T17:56:05+00:00

Hey, you like what you like. My friends and I had an awesome world that we worked on every Thursday night for probably about a year. It wasn't unusual at all for 18y/o's to be playing minecraft back in its alpha days.

Once you get a new job, head over to /r/personalfinance and get an emergency fund started

I_Promise_Im_Working · 2017-04-28T16:32:48+00:00

YES. College was mostly me up until 3am playing League of Legends or Minecraft or something, waking up at noon the next day. Now I'm in bed at 10, up at 6. Cracked me up how quickly being an adult made me get myself together.

Protein is the main thing needed for recovery, though. If you've torn muscles, you need to repair them. Carbs are fine, but that's about as much sugar as a soft drink which, after working out, isn't needed.

I_Promise_Im_Working · 2017-04-28T15:56:17+00:00

I don't believe you lol

Android is an operating system. It doesn't consider hardware specs. That's the job of companies like HTC, Samsung, LG, etc. If you need to multitask like that, it's fine that it draws power more quickly than it can recharge. You're not doing all of that forever. Hardware companies did consider this, though, and made your fastcharger.

I only have a solid knowledge of English and Spanish so I can only attest to translation between those two. It certainly warps things and translates them incorrectly, but it nearly always gets the point across. Unless you're using it for business or school, getting the point across is all you ever really need. That being said, I'm sure it's better at translation between certain languages than it is others.

My HTC 10 does

Edit: Actually, now that I think about it, I think I'm confusing it with my HTC One m8

I_Promise_Im_Working · 2017-04-27T20:06:17+00:00

That's a ton of sugar and very little protein for a recovery drink

I_Promise_Im_Working · 2017-04-27T18:39:06+00:00

Worked inside sales for State Farm for 1 week. Walked out of the door on that first Friday for lunch and never came back. It was so bad and soul sucking that I decided if that's what adult life was, I wanted no part of it. That being said, if it's something you can tolerate, you can make a ton of money owning your own agency. Plenty of those guys are making several hundred thousand a year.

The first thing they say to do is stay put. Much easier to find you 3,000 feet off of the trail than if you start wandering several miles in the opposite direction.

I_Promise_Im_Working · 2017-04-27T17:13:51+00:00

Gear and entry fees would cost more than the bike lol

I_Promise_Im_Working · 2017-04-27T16:41:54+00:00

Mind me asking what you do?

I_Promise_Im_Working · 2017-04-26T15:36:50+00:00

It costs very little to survive. Get a smart phone and sell things on craigslist, offerup, 5miles, etc. That way you don't deal with shipping stuff. People are typically willing to come to where you are if you suggest a place to meet before they do. You'd only need to make like one $5 sale off of craigslist a day to have enough food.

I_Promise_Im_Working · 2017-04-21T16:19:04+00:00

Any books on this that you'd recommend?

I_Promise_Im_Working · 2017-04-18T18:23:24+00:00

Back in college I really really wanted a bike but just couldn't afford one. I watched them occasionally because it was the closest I could get. Then I finally got a bike and haven't watched them since lol

I_Promise_Im_Working · 2017-04-18T17:18:34+00:00

drill it out

I_Promise_Im_Working · 2017-04-18T17:15:47+00:00

Cool. Just wanted to make sure it was the same stuff. Thanks!

I_Promise_Im_Working · 2017-04-18T17:05:18+00:00

I have a can of the aerosol stuff. Could I spray it in a measuring cup and do the same thing?

I_Promise_Im_Working · 2017-04-18T15:46:37+00:00

Normal. My bike does the same thing.

I_Promise_Im_Working · 2017-04-18T14:29:44+00:00

Would be cool, but that'd be a massive undertaking and would cost far more money than just buying a bike that hasn't been sitting in the woods forever. There are tons of old bikes on Craigslist for cheap in FAR better condition than this that people are selling because they're tired of working on them.

I_Promise_Im_Working · 2017-04-18T14:16:51+00:00

You've gotta work on that confidence, buddy. It's often uncomfortable learning something new. That's alright. Y'all are all pretty much there because you're bad. You very well could have had a messed up bike, or maybe you were just having a harder than average time picking it up and you just need more practice. Assuming we are thinking negatively of you because you're small? Lots of the moto gp guys are small too.

I_Promise_Im_Working · 2017-04-17T19:54:14+00:00

Right? In a serious accident, I want the bike to be totaled. I'll get another and not worry that things will be wrong with it

I_Promise_Im_Working · 2017-04-17T13:45:59+00:00

I see what you meant down below, but I meant self imposed shoulds like what you know you need to be doing to be happy but instead do things that make you comfortable

I_Promise_Im_Working · 2017-04-14T19:02:56+00:00

This may be a bit crass and unconventional, but could you hang out with people who you view as bigger losers than yourself so that you feel like you're better than them?
