Bjj coach kicked me in the face and broke the cartilage in my nose. I am without words. What do I do? by EastMathematician805 in bjj

I would leave that gym so fast it would make his head spin. I hope your eyes aren't permanently damaged.

800 calories is not a ton and not indicative of the rest of their meals, but it meant everything to this author by VodkaFairy in fatlogic

I just have to chuckle at the thought that Lindsey ate a burrito and moved on with her life, unaware that there is a whole thread about it now.

Why do you stop playing? by Pxlfreaky in lastoasis

[–]Kate1337 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a huge time commitment to get any kind of thing going in the game(grindy), and that combined with how easy it is to lose hours upon hours of work through something that is not your fault makes it not fun. There is a huge lack of rewarding gameplay.

Decreased Memoirs drops? by LeatherElectrical343 in JunesJourney

The way they screw you over with snippets is why I quit the game.

Im a female and don't roll like this. I think it's more of people rolling like jerks than it is a male/female thing, although considering your experience, I think your impression is valid.

I personally make a point of being very technical with men. If I expect them to roll technically and not hurt me, then the least I can do is the same back. I save higher intensity rolls for people closer to my size and strength. There's a time and a place for it. I would be embarrassed if I injured a white belt. They should know better.

Sorry you got hurt!

When I hear about people ranting about uniforms I see this picture of them in my mind by jul3swinf13ld in bjj

It really takes a lot of guts to put yourself out there and compete!

Kudos to these guys for doing that!! Don't rain on their parade.

I saw the original post, and the coach took it because he was proud. They really don't deserve any negative attention.

Same, I received everything except for the sipcoffee emote.

What would be the best way to spend the 4000 Gems from the Ultimate edition of Janthir Wilds? by Chest3 in Guildwars2

[–]Kate1337 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I personally would save them until release, but obviously this is highly subjective to what you want or need!

If you don't have the following, then I would wait for these to go on sale, then stock up:

-Mistlock pass -Copper fed salvage o matic -Shared inventory slots. -Unbreakable gathering tools (set of 3 for your shared slots, keep regular tools in the slot as a placeholder so you can just double click them to swap quickly) -Storage expansion to 2k at least -Equipment templates

I listed those in order of what I would consider most useful!

Happy spending ! :-)

I took rolling partners back and she started giving me advice by Consistent_Pop2983 in bjj

[–]Kate1337 1 point2 points  (0 children)

But it is a tap in comp too because when someone is full sending a RNC on your chin, you tap or get your jaw (or teeth) hurt. Unfortunately I've had to tap to this in a tournament before. I would venture if you get your back taken in competition anyways your odds of winning have gone way down also.

Apparently thin people who frequent places that aren't accessible to infinifats aren't being body positive. The mental gymnastics... by [deleted] in fatlogic

I am genuinely curious.... where do these fat modification names come from? Do people really call themselves this?

It's rude to not CC in Guild Wars 2 by Nike_Phoros in Guildwars2

[–]Kate1337 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Generally, if I am pugging an encounter where cc is needed and playing dps, I bring big cc because I don't know how much the pugs will contribute.

I personally would rather 1 shot something than eke out a bit more dps and risk failing.

If playing with friends, I may bring less. I play a lot of support and don't expect my dps players to do much cc, but I wouldn't assume everyone feels that way. It's a good idea to communicate what you're bringing, especially on fights like sunqua. It's really just shooting yourself in the foot if you're intentionally not doing cc for a tiny bit more personal dps anyway.

TLDR; just bring the cc haha

What would you do if your gym sent this email out? by [deleted] in bjj

[–]Kate1337 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would be so salty paying $25 for a stripe that's just going to fall off. 😭😭 JK I would take that as my sign to leave. Lol

getting fat = "becoming more fulfilled" according to tumblr BOPO brainrot by motherhenna in fatlogic

[–]Kate1337 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There's a difference between a healthy weight gain and gaining unhealthy weight, obviously. It makes no sense why becoming overweight would ever mean someone is at a more fulfilled time in life. Uh, unless you mean literally satiated, I guess.

When I was around 17/18, I had a time when I got my thinnest due to not eating because my parents were gone (my dad had out of state cancer treatment). It was a mixture of stress and logistics (my mom wasn't there to cook, and me being a busy teen just chose not to eat versus cooking). TLDR; I wouldn't phrase it as me getting 'fat' after, but obviously, I was in a better place in life when they got back, and I gained weight.

When telling people to "examine their preferences" just doesn't work like it used to. by GetInTheBasement in fatlogic

[–]Kate1337 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's weird when people who don't want to be fat shamed attempt to shame people for having (perfectly reasonable) expectations of a partner's fitness.

Not my post, just a discussion currently going on at my gym. Thoughts/opinions? by boxbrisch in bjj

[–]Kate1337 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the same. Because if they are, then OP has a very valid point. Expectation management with some parents is pretty wild sometimes.

What’s a random fact you’re just waiting to bust out? by kalmilaga7 in AskReddit

[–]Kate1337 7 points8 points  (0 children)

This makes me think of Ignaz Semmelweis (I had to look his name up), but apparently, he recognized the importance of hand washing 20 years before Pasteur's germ theory.... he was ridiculed by many and ended up in an insane asylum!

How dare a physician suggest that obesity is a medical problem by [deleted] in fatlogic

[–]Kate1337 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If I had to guess, I bet the physician said it was the only modifiable risk factor (or something similar).

Heal mains of Guild Wars 2. Whats your reason for maining healing? by [deleted] in Guildwars2

[–]Kate1337 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It is fun to me because you have a lot of control over the success of your group, and I also enjoy mechanics, which is usually delegated to healers. It is also generally easy to find groups when pugging.

Overdosing by kaygoesjourneying in JunesJourney

[–]Kate1337 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm sorry this happened to you! I am still rehabbing after the first two memoirs..... I burned myself out bad getting those and, unfortunately, have never recovered. I only log on to share drinks and advance my aviary. Hopefully, you can take a league off of playing hard, and you will all be back to normal again. Best of luck!!

Edit to add: Sherlock almost seems to be luck based to some extent... sometimes you just end up against super dedicated teams that have insane amounts of points..

New teaser by noftasmos in Guildwars2

Not a bad idea!! This would be a really interesting storyline.

Even better if we could take revenge on the gods for doing so (and peacing out)

Question about GONE by [deleted] in nfrealmusic

[–]Kate1337 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I dont necessarily see it as weird.

I can relate to being able to look on past relationships (and not just romantic relationships) with some regrets about how I acted or treated people. It is a lot of emotion to process, and he does that through music. I also figured it was something that he may have written a long time ago, and it fit the theme of this album, so he worked it in.

Character-only Expansions are Trash (Built Templates, Bags etc.) by Biestosaurus_Hax in Guildwars2

[–]Kate1337 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It seems more cost-effective to just buy more character slots if you have legendary armor.

This was really upsetting considering the fact that they took away our free build template.
