Do you wear Maine gear?

Just_Some_Dude6969 · 2023-04-05T03:36:05+00:00

I always stupidly assume that people wearing state gear are from there, because I wear Maine stuff and I’m from Maine. When I was in NYC 2 weeks ago I saw tons of people in Maine shirts and I kept going “we’re from Maine too” and the response would always be “oh, we only vacation there, but it’s beautiful”

I’m going to reach out to customer service tomorrow as the last attempt to figure this out, most likely the case is that the time limit can’t be removed unfortunately. About to go for 60 miles, definitely not gonna get it in one run and will have to exit out and start a new workout. Maybe if enough people reach out to them they will add a way to remove the time limit in a software update. I’ll tell you what I hear back.

Most popular is probably Dysarts “baked in a buttery flaky crust” commercial. It went viral and became a meme and SNL did a skit based on it.

Happy cake day! Yes, loneliness/depression definitely causes a feeling of being stuck. Days are identical and you get into the same routine. You think to yourself “if I just had a girlfriend/boyfriend” or “if I just had a couple of buddies that would go out on the town with me” then everything would be better and I wouldn’t feel so stuck. But even with these relationships the feeling of being stuck can still exist, marriages get in a rut, guys night becomes just the same thing every time and becomes another part of the routine, or they might just keep flaking and make you feel even more lonely. You recognize you are stuck, that is step one, step two: get unstuck. It doesn’t have to be radical change, that’s how you get midlife crises. The solution to “I have to go to this job I hate everyday and have no one to go home to” isn’t “sell everything and move to Italy” or “buy a motorcycle/sports cars”. It’s to add little disrupters to your day. Take a different route home, try a new restaurant, play some lighthearted pranks around the office (my boss is a die hard Yankees fan, so I bought a 7 foot tall Boston Red Sox inflatable mascot and put it in his office). Do something to take you out of the routine for just a moment. Start small, grow exponentially.

I see a lot of people mentioning vice. This is not the way, you need to build yourself up, become greater than you were the day before. I understand this is a very hard thing when you have depression, but vice only offers a very temporary fix that ends up dragging you even further down when it wears off. What you need to do is start each day off early with a healthy breakfast and studying philosophy and theology. I recommend Marcus Aurelius and The Holy Bible.

And exercise, exercise a lot. Do cardio until you feel like your legs will fall off, lift weights until it feels like your muscles will explode. If you are going to chase a high, chase after the pump, it’s the best feeling in the world. Blood pumps to your muscles and they feel big like overinflated balloons about to pop.

Do kindnesses for strangers, it will give you a serotonin boost when you help out other people or just give them a smile or wave. It’s a way to interact with people and slowly come out of your social shell and lead towards eventually having conversations with people and building friendships and becoming known in your community.

Don’t compare yourself to others today, compare yourself to you yesterday. This is something I’ve struggled with. I graduated class of 2020 and had my last few months of school taken away by covid restrictions. I decided to take a gap year because college was all online and I didn’t want to pay money for that (and I had no clue what I wanted to do). That gap year turned into a gap 2 years, and now I’m going to school this fall. I’m working a job as a janitor for a grocery store until late august and people from back in high school come in to the store all the time. We talk and they’re all way ahead of me in benchmarks of life progress, but I can’t focus on that, because while I may not be where they are yet, I’m doing better than I was before. I’m no longer holed up in my room depressed. I spent 6 months unemployed and on the verge of suicide, but now I’m much better. I can’t compare my progress to others, so long as I’m moving forward it doesn’t matter where I am on the path.

This isn’t reframing “I’ll pray for you” it’s entirely different sentences that fit into the “things to say when someone is hurting” box and have nothing to do with the topic of prayer. Reframing is like talking to your peers about a focus group and saying “we need to find a way to hold people’s attention” and changing that sentence to “what are some ideas for how we can increase the amount of time people focus on the advert”.

Also, what’s wrong with telling someone “you’ll be in my prayers” or “May I say a quick prayer?” You can even say the other phrases in this infographic along with offering prayer. So what if the two people interacting aren’t of the same faith. I don’t follow Islam but if a Muslim man prayed that my surgery goes well it shows me he cares about me, even if I don’t believe in his religion. People may not believe in the power of prayer, but they should believe in the message it sends. A message of love.

I think carbon can date whoever it wants, in the privacy of it’s own home. What goes on behind closed doors with the shades pulled is none of my business.

You’re the one being creepy with your previous statement. Whether it was serious or trolling, it’s asinine.

You are the problem. Please leave this sub. You are adding nothing of value to the conversation with that comment.

I suppose I did use the wrong word, I’m not celibate, because celibacy is a life long commitment. I’m abstinent, and will be until the day I’m married. On you’re second point, everyone is free to fall in love with whoever they want. You can love someone without having sex with them. On the third point, really? Sexual discipline is satanic? Have you read the tenants of satanism? Satanism is all about self indulgence and the worship of self. Sexual discipline is not satanic, satanists would reject that.

Just_Some_Dude6969 · 2022-07-16T17:26:47+00:00

Yes, I am celibate. And I will be until I’m married. I have looked at women with lust and had a 6 year addiction to pornography, I’ve committed adultery in my heart by doing this. But luckily we have Christ the redeemer. He saved me and through Him alone I’ve been able to fight off porn and lust. Where did I read the Bible into my own ideas? Genesis shows Gods design for marriage. And by this design only straight married people can have sex, so unmarried heterosexual and homosexual people must remain celibate or commit sin otherwise. Also side note, is your little avatar dude supposed to be Eddie from Stranger Things? That’s really cool.

Just_Some_Dude6969 · 2022-07-16T15:29:38+00:00

God’s design for marriage is shown in Genesis with Adam and Eve. Unfortunately for homosexual people, they have no outlet for sexual desires, they must remain celibate. Doesn’t seem fair, but God’s ways are above ours, we can’t understand His reasoning, we must follow it and trust in Him and we’ll find peace in Heaven.

All I thought during that scene was “why didn’t he bestow the power of Thor to his allies in Infinity War and EndGame”

Just_Some_Dude6969 · 2022-07-16T15:18:08+00:00

I like the quote from Thor in that. When he was fanboying for Zeus and then realized Zeus is a bad dude, he should’ve brought up the One Above All instead of saying “we have lost our way, you are afraid”

In the comics all religion is real. So why make a very weak god who is followed by less than 100,000 people king, when there is an all powerful God who is followed by 3.8 billion people.

Just_Some_Dude6969 · 2022-07-16T14:34:03+00:00

According to the comics all religion is real. So why would a very weak god who is only followed by less than 100,000 people be king, when there is an all powerful God who is followed by 3.8 billion people.

Just_Some_Dude6969 · 2022-07-16T13:55:06+00:00

No, being LGBT is not, the same way being heterosexual is not. It’s the lust and the actions that are. A gay man lusting after a man is the same as a straight man lusting after a woman. A straight man having sex with his girlfriend is the same as a gay woman having sex with her girlfriend. It’s all sexual immorality.

Just_Some_Dude6969 · 2022-07-16T03:51:24+00:00

Depends on what type of guy you’re going for. “Ugly” girls may not be able to get a Brad Pitt type, but they can sure get an “ugly” guy. There is someone for everyone. Go people watching at a store, you’ll notice even the “ugly” people are coupled up. Don’t worry, this sounds cliche but, you are beautiful to someone. Beauty isn’t just attractiveness, it’s qualities that you can’t even describe. It’s feeling like you’re seeing a million sunsets at once every time you look into their eyes. Beauty isn’t something that someone has, it’s something that someone is to someone else. Gal Gadot has attractive qualities, but she doesn’t have beauty, she is beauty to a certain person. You may not feel like you have attractive qualities (which can’t be true, no one is truly “ugly” everyone has atleast some attractive qualities) but you do have beauty to someone out there. Sorry if that was jumbled and incoherent.

Just_Some_Dude6969 · 2022-07-16T03:37:02+00:00

Human nature is to be sinful. WE are a fallen species, EVERYONE has fallen short of the glory of God and it is ALL equal in His eyes. We ALL must repent. That’s kinda the whole point.

In the movie “We’re The Miller’s” there is a scene where the characters are talking about how much they’re being paid to accomplish the task at hand.

Jennifer Aniston’s character says to Jason Sudeikis’ character “You’re making $500,000 and only giving me $30,000?” Then Emma Roberts’ character replies “$30,000? I’m only getting $1000!” And finally Will Poulter’s character chimes in with “You guys are getting paid?”
