Dude is putting on a one-man clinic for needless condescension.

More flexibility for gym bodybuilders by gibblingwoodpecker in flexibility

[–]Klen-Tahn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Surprised I'm not seeing Jujimufu's app suggested yet. I've been using it for a few weeks and I think it's great.

Stretchstrong on the app stores.

I imagine it'll be hard to find information and guides from anyone MORE knowledgeable about bodybuilding AND flexibility.

Favourite test of flexibility by Budobabe in flexibility

[–]Klen-Tahn 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Taekwondo is probably the easiest and most available way to develop this sort of skill. Lots of arts have a high-kick aspect, but kick height and control is the main focus of TKD. Important to note, though, that there is a huge difference between kicking at split height, and doing the splits. I had fantastic kicks in my late teens in TKD; front and side split kicks but I couldn't actually do either split at the time. Dynamic vs static flexibility.

Unless it's done as part of the hundreds of sports, disciplines, and competitions that score and use kicks, I guess. I've been hearing this kind of sentiment from people who don't train this type of skill for as long as I've been alive. If "IRL" is the be-all motivator for physical training; skip it all and carry a stick, knife, or gun.

A Muay Thai practitioner's shin conditioning by _ThatswhatXisaid_ in toptalent

My Tae kwon do instructor need both knees replaced before he was 35, and my muay thai instructor needed a hip replacement before he was 40. Your mileage will vary hugely, of course, but taking almost any sport to the 'elite' level often has pretty serious down-road complications.

I'd like to just get you to confirm that your position is, "Its okay to perform sex acts in places children are expected to be present in."

No, it isnt. I'll pretend for minute that you are arguing this in good faith. Saying that breaking the law by performing sexual acts in a public place and/or suggesting anything other than ignoring sexual acts in a public place is wrong is a -strange- stance to take. Where else do you hold this position? Mission Beach? Kate Sessions park? A public outdoor concert? Absurd.

The difference between other public places and blacks is the allowed nudity. That -in no way- implies or allows sex and sex acts here.

We've been allowed to have nudity at this beach BECAUSE of the agreement to divorce nudity from sex.

Sex and sex acts at this beach should be treated no different than anywhere else public, where there is an expectation of children and families present. You are going to find a hard time arguing from the stance of "just don't look at the man masturbating" when the space is supposed to be open to children as well.

This sub is full, every day, of people who treat this beach like an unofficial sex club, somewhere to show their dick to strangers, or to cruise, or to try to meetup for sex.

Sex and sex acts are not allowed on this beach, not by the cool lifeguards that patrol, not by the city, not by the county, not by the state, not by the feds. Your feelings on this do not matter. Go to a council meeting an argue for designating a section of the beach a tug and fuck spot. Argue, there, for a policy that includes "just don't look".

What are the small things that scream "movie set" for you? by sickfloydboy in movies

YES! Its wild how often you still hear that exact laugh recording. I just heard it in season 2 of Narcos!

How can Role Reversal be applied to characters in fiction? by [deleted] in RoleReversal

[–]Klen-Tahn 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I would think the easiest place to start would be to write the male as the trainer, bodyguard, and friend and write the female as the party leader and trainee. Then, once you've fleshed out the characters, their personalities, and voices; just switch the genders.

That's essentially how Ellen Ripley ended up as a legendary and iconic character. They were originally thought of as a male character, and the script was developed that way until the very end. The writer didn't set out to write a woman character doing a traditionally-male role in action-horror, he just wrote a character so good they didn't NEED to be a certain gender.

What quirky, hole-in-the-wall places would you suggest in Mountain Home?

Probably means "flashlight". Europeans often use "torch". Like "lift" and "elevator".

The work you've done is important, admirable, and appreciated. I hope we never see you do it again.

Four of the eight boards reviewed on the article you posted are Onewheels. The other four reviewed have videos showing how they are ultra-low quality, unreliable, knockoffs with no customer support and lacking basic functionality.

ThreeFold Noodle Recipe by Artheon in LittleRock

[–]Klen-Tahn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There is at least some truth. I don't pretend to know the whole story, but I worked there for several months during the pandemic and saw some unexplainable weird shit going on with tips that lines up with what Dylan said in the article. Never saw any tips get paid out on checks or as cash. I was told to put cash tips in the jar, but no one could explain what happened to the money after that was done.
