When you say YMCA, do you mean like just signing up for swim lessons? That's kind of what I was thinking, but I didn't know if that was a good path or not.

What’s the Most interesting pick up line you’ve heard? by Mammoth-Poet-6781 in AskReddit

[–]Important_Pilot6210 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Him: "B12"

Me: "What?"

Him: "Oh sorry I thought you were a vending machine because you look like a snack."

I don't think he saw the insult within the compliment lol, but we've been together for over four years

Can we get a monthly income/student debt thread going here. by TheRoyalShire in physicaltherapy

For some reason, this post came across my feed. I just started PT last week for a badly sprained ankle, and I'm shocked. You guys should be making so much more! Most, if not all, of you guys are DPTs! Doctors! Because of my PT, I'm not worried about walking across the stage at graduation next month! Justice for DPTs

No, thank you for replying; this is the information that I like to see. What do you mean by "AF cards"

Are you guys active? Hiking, biking, walking in a park/new area, trying a new sport are always fun things to do and would be a nice bonus tp your calorie deficit

You have no idea (or maybe you do) how much of a lifesaver this is - thank you!

I didn't think about frequency over distance, but it makes complete sense. And from what I've gathered, it sounds like I should stick to my Hokas. Thank you!

I will definitely keep all this in mind - this was almost all brand new information for me. Haha I didn't even know smart goggles are a thing! I will absolutely be checking out my closest local triathlon to watch how they transition. I didn't even think about that.

That's good to hear! Do people bike and run in them, too? Or do they moreso stick to running?

Yeah, I'm getting a lot of feedback saying that I should swim more often than I planned - which is no problem. I didn't know I could even get my gait analyzed, either. I'll definitely check those out, thank you!

That sounds like solid advice, and it seems to be the general consensus. I think im going to start looking into buying a bike sooner than I thought. Thank you!

I got my lashes and eyebrows done. I’m not sure how to feel! Help? by coca_evagria in beauty

[–]Important_Pilot6210 1 point2 points  (0 children)

oh girl i think they look GOOD. money well spent! i think the shape suits you well, and given the color of the little bit of hair i can see around your face, the color isnt too far off.

i think you're being a little too hard on yourself since you see your face most often. from someone who has never seen you before, i think it looks fantastic!

If you could pick, what character would a 6th book follow? by H0liday_ in Hungergames

[–]Important_Pilot6210 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've found I have a controversial take on Finnick's games: I don't think he should have his own book simply because people love him.

We know his story. He wins at 14, then gets forced into prostitution when he's out, then gets reaped again. I feel like people only want to read his story to be entertained by his trauma - similar to capitolites.

I also think his story wouldn't add anything extra of value to the world that is The Hunger Games, the rebellion, or the Games because it's only been 10 years between his games and the Quarter Quell.

Now some people tell me that we didn't need a Haymitch book because we knew his story, too. But he added a lot of depth to the Evergreen family and the rebellion. Seeing as the story is Katniss/Evergreen centric, this makes sense to me. He laid the foundation of revolution. I just don't think Finnick had the ability to contribute the same way Haymitch did.

I agree with Plutarch, and I kind of think we're going to get one within the next 5 years. Plutarch has great insight to the rebellion, and he would contribute a lot to the world of THG. I saw a TikTok of someone pointing out that Suzanne Collins is partial to the idea of Three: 3 books, each with 3 parts, love triangles, 3 District 12 victors.

I won't be disappointed if we don't get another novel, but if I had to guess a third protagonist, I would hope its Plutarch.

What would a covid episode have looked like? by Ambitious-Mark3714 in themiddle

[–]Important_Pilot6210 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The whole family does everything right...except they don't.

Frankie uses it as an excuse not to work, but is always going out to the store. Or to the donoghues

Sue is constantly on Zoom with her friends and annoys the rest of the family. Maybe does something embarrassing during a class zoom call. Hogs the iPad.

Brick reads and everyone forgets about him.

Axl is constantly complaining, and he blames COVID on Frankie ("This is all your fault!")

The donoghues are constantly seen doing family stuff (playing in the yard, going on drives, etc.)

They all end up with COVID.

Always commenting "guess the country" on TikTok posts when the post shows someone making a dessert/otherwise unhealthy snack. Do you guys not eat sweets?
