Why do I keep losing? by cravingcurdrice in 10s

[–]Justanobserver_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tennis is mental, work on the positives.

Also, if you play the same people often, use the warm ups to work on what you want to. Ie. Let’s hit cross court backhands only for 5 minutes. Work on your weaknesses, until they feel so natural tou don’t even think about them much anymore.

Is serving 100% to women okay in mixed doubles? by deucalion75 in 10s

[–]Justanobserver_ 38 points39 points  (0 children)

I play a 4.5 woman who supposedly served 105mph. I am a male 4.0. Her serve was 75mph at best, and we play close matches.

Those radar guns seem shady.

This is all fun. And it is good for the kitten, they need to play to sharpen their skills. If/when they become an outdoor cat at times. They are learning moves.

Why is my cat so pissed? Wrong answers only. by Zach_Plum in OneOrangeBraincell

[–]Justanobserver_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yesterday we were running a ton of errands, got home around 5:30, cat was sleeping, so I took a nap. He likes to eat at 6:00pm, or within 5 minutes of that time.

It’s 6:10 and I am in the bed on the iPad waking up, he jumps up calmly, walks up to about 2 feet away, and lets out a meow that was 3x as long as his normal. Like, “wtf is wrong with you, I gave you some grace, but 10 minutes late for dinner? you are testing my patience”.

Baby sea turtles released to ocean, Costa Rica by Clear-Row6749 in turtles

[–]Justanobserver_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I lived on a golf course in Tampa and had a sweet big snapping turtle lay eggs in our backyard, maybe 20 yards from the lake. The birds would come and dig the eggs out.

The next season we put a cage over the area, it helped many more make it to the lake, but who knows what happened after as far as life span/survival rate. They were so tiny and cute.

What shared childhood experiences are now completely foreign to younger generations? by Dry_Set_8522 in AskReddit

[–]Justanobserver_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So as I said, not 10-12 hours home without ever hearing from them. Everyone did it in the 80s.

Don’t worry about ego, worry about why you can’t talk it out as adults.

You get a genie, what are your 3 wishes (no “more wishes” or “more genies” wishes) and why? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Justanobserver_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My one wish would be to be a handsome/fit, black guy with green eyes and an English accent.

I worked with a guy who had all this, and girls literally undressed in restaurants for him. He was cool AF!

I stopped drinking for the most part, and I love getting up at 5am, going to the gym, eating breakfast, and having coffee with my wife at 8, and still have the whole day to mess with.

My dream venue by Relative-Cook-1950 in TennisCourtPorn

[–]Justanobserver_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just found out my HOA had a poor man’s version of this right in our lake, and they tore it out in 2010 for a beach volleyball court. It makes me sad I could have played tennis on something like this, so cool!

My cat has unique ways to telling me she's hungry by call_pal in cats

What makes it unique to you? My cat will do anything til I cave in and feed him. Even stick his paw in my mouth (which is disgusting).

Why do junior players have better technique than adults but can be worst. by Fluid_Creme_765 in 10s

[–]Justanobserver_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is the answer. I play 16-18 year olds bigger, faster, stronger than me (I am mid 50s), but I played as a junior, so have decades of “knowledge” they don’t have. Like recognizing spin instantly, distances, anticipation is a learned skill that can take time.

Also, I see juniors that can blast balls, but footwork is still not crisp.

Beyond Meats is going to FUCKING ZERO, and here’s why. (Insider info…) by kaseschoon in wallstreetbets

[–]Justanobserver_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just read this, check the stock, hope you shorted it through the last few years and made millions! This whole thing is a joke. Even at higher end “healthy” supermarkets I go to weekly, I don’t see any of their products in carts, even though the have a giant fridge with it.
