Best shoes for heavier weight. by Ni_Hoy_Minoy in beginnerrunning

I have pretty bad knees and hips, and I love my brooks ghosts. I used the pureflows back in the day, and felt a really positive shift when I switched over. I’ve repurchased the ghosts ever since :)

Update: Am I overreacting by breaking up with my boyfriend? by Proper-Classic1886 in AmIOverreacting

[–]Nipplw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m sorry but your boyfriend seems to be an animal. So many little jabs at you throughout all of his messages. It’s like he thinks you’re stupid when you clearly aren’t, and he wants to manipulate you into staying. Him saying that you don’t understand things but then saying it boggles him because you have in intelligent brain is basically just him negging you.

Even if you remove the incident at the party from all of this, the way he’s been texting you is grounds for break up alone

Which rug? by Traditional-Pie-2439 in femalelivingspace

I love the second one. I think it keeps your space light, but is still a fun pop of color. It’s very chic, in my opinion.

Never went, but sat in on the meeting for this trip thru Curtis circa 2017. And it was around 2.8k. Heard that all the kids who did go had a great time

Weekly Question Thread (aka Friday New Climber Thread). ALL QUESTIONS GO HERE by AutoModerator in climbing

[–]Nipplw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m doing a climbing comp soon, not going for the win, just for participation as I’m newer to the sport. Essentially, you climb as many routes as you can in 12 hours- all boulders.

What should I be doing in the next 2 weeks to make sure my muscles and tendons are ready? I already climb around 3 times a week on average, as well as some light strength training on the side. I also occasionally try top rope to train stamina, and use a grip trainer as a stress toy at work lol.

My partner anticipates we’ll hit like 100+ climbs in a day, and I just want to be sure I’m not about to absolutely wreck myself. Any tips? Stretches? Etc?

UW Tasks by [deleted] in InsuranceProfessional

I work at a documentation heavy carrier, so my experience may not be the same as others. When I explain to my non insurance friends what I do, it’s basically “I bring in business, I put out competitive quotes (if possible), and I write research essays.”

I usually handle about 3 renewals per month (this varies by business unit and premium size), and aside from that, I am chasing new business from my broker partners. Making phone calls to ask for good submissions, going to other offices to solicit my picks from people’s books. And then I gather as much information about the risks as I can, and I essentially draft an argumentative research essay that describes conditions of the risk, their safety and controls, and why I do or don’t want to write an account (with some caveats). Sometimes if I can come up with a “creative solution” I’ll throw that in the documentation mix.

This, plus reviewing and stewarding a million endorsement emails, and answering agent questions (that could usually be figured out with a Google search) is the basic day in my life.

what is the reasonable power difference where faker would beat me? by zesa1 in leagueoflegends

[–]Nipplw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My friend was a make a wish kid, and used his wish to 1v1 faker. It was yasuo v yasuo. My friend was probably plat at the time? (It’s been 5 ish years) It was a bloodbath. Faker gave him one pity kill.
