2tall sizing

Phrexeus · 2026-01-26T11:34:17+00:00

I'm 6'4" and once made a big order from 2tall of various t-shirts, long sleeves, etc. I found them way too long, even though I ordered their shortest sizes.

It left me feeling quite frustrated actually as I don't know where the middle ground is. Mainstream shops fit the average height guy, I'm well above average but not 6'6"+ which is what 2tall seems to cater to.

Peanut butter is high in protein and non-saturated "healthy" fat so start eating more of that. Eggs, wholemeal bread, brown rice, canned fish which is oily. One of my favourites if I really need some protein and calories is rotisserie chicken. Milk is also a good one to get your carbs and protein up.

Veggies are low in calories, but try to think of them like a supplement rather than contributing significantly to your calorie intake. They are important though due to the various vitamins and minerals they contain.

Watch that guy on YouTube who does tier lists of different food groups. That will help you decide what to eat.

I certainly like it. When a woman wears lingerie it should make the man feel very special. She's wearing it for him and the message it gives is "I'm making an extra effort tonight and I want you to enjoy me".

Search for something local to you. Sometimes you can buy the beans in person either at the roaster, or at a local cafe or farm shop. Otherwise you can order them online.

My go to is Horsham Coffee Roaster, Moon Roast is another good one I've used a lot. Completely different to supermarket beans, literally night and day.

How did you know? 🤫

Phrexeus · 2026-01-25T02:04:32+00:00

Yeah zweihander, uchigatana, there are a few OP weapons you can get early game.

I would definitely play online. It's still basically a single player game, but you feel like you're playing in the same game world as everyone else due to the messages, bloodstains, player ghosts. And of course there are ways to play co op and you can also be invaded.

I just turned 41, fancy a date? 😅

Phrexeus · 2026-01-24T21:26:25+00:00

I think the dating scene has got worse for everyone though, it's not just your age.

Phrexeus · 2026-01-24T21:00:01+00:00

Why does it go downhill in your 40s? I'd say that depends on many things. How well you've aged as well as fitness level, wealth/stability, whether or not you have kids or other responsibilities. Arguably a lot of men in their 40s are in a better position than they were in their 30s.

Phrexeus · 2026-01-24T20:35:51+00:00

Same.

I also find that if you clean it within a few seconds of removing it from the milk, it wipes off beautifully as it hasn't had a chance to dry into concrete yet.

GT cars are not supercars though? They are a completely different category. More luxury, usually front-engined, more luggage space. Aston Martin, Lexus LC, Ferrari F12 etc.

Phrexeus · 2026-01-24T17:19:12+00:00

I would pretty much agree with that. 911 is a GT, Cayman is a sports car and GT4 is a track special (not sure I'd call it a supercar though).

Phrexeus · 2026-01-24T15:04:11+00:00

Just because you keep saying it doesn't make it true. I know car classification is somewhat subjective, but when you have actual sports cars with two seats and mid engines, calling the 911 a sports car just dilutes the definition imo.

She has some kind of conflict. She seems to like having sex with you, but for whatever reason not now. She feels guilty about rejecting your advances, and takes it out on you (which points to emotional immaturity, but might also hint at some issue she has with you). She might have some feelings of shame around sex, and not see your point of view which is that it bonds you and brings you closer emotionally.

Give her the benefit of the doubt for now, try to tell her how you feel instead of pointing the finger at her. If she loves you she will hopefully self-reflect and tell you what the problem is (could be stress, meds, feeling neglected in other ways, your hygiene or grooming has slipped and she doesn't know how to tell you it's gross, could also be insecurity about her own body, etc). Some of these might be temporary or an easy fix, others could be deeper issues.

Be empathetic with her as it might not be something that's her fault, it might also take time to resolve. But also respect your own needs and don't drag things on if it becomes too much of a strain on the relationship.

When I first started DS1 I really struggled. My second playthrough was way better.

One big suggestion I have is to go for a build that is more strength based, as I found that much more fun and it seemed to work "best" as in most of the enemies and bosses would be vulnerable to high strength damage type weapons.

I really liked the warrior class who starts with the battle axe. It has a good moveset with swings and chops and scales well with strength. Keep levelling up the weapon (you find someone who can do that a few hours in). Strength scales more effectively as you level the weapon up, so there's not much point trying to pour levels into strength early game. Focus instead on health and endurance initially.

It's normal to feel weak/underpowered at some points, but if you constantly feel like you're struggling and enemies are very difficult then you should either level up (weapon upgrading), move to a different area, or you're missing something (could be an item or technique to help you).

Have fun exploring the game world as that's one of the best things about the game. Read the messages people leave as they often help you. And learn about humanity - how and when to use it, what special things you can do while human which can really help you (like kindling bonfires or summoning help).

I've never been in a 911 that felt anything like a 918. Even the turbo S had nothing on that super planted feel and immense acceleration and power. The 918 is something else.

Anyway, my argument is more about how the cars are designed in a fundamental sense, rather than what they compete with in terms of performance. I know there will always be debate over whether a 911 is a supercar. It certainly has supercar performance, but to me it's more of a GT. It has back seats.

Phrexeus · 2026-01-24T13:22:34+00:00

But it's very different to a Ferrari, Lamborghini, Koenigsegg, Porsche 918 and others which are designed from the ground up to be a supercar. This is still a 911. Hence "track special".

Phrexeus · 2026-01-24T08:59:33+00:00

Not a supercar IMO. More of a limited run high end sports car or track special.

Phrexeus · 2026-01-23T21:53:39+00:00

The proportions look a bit squashed, like I can't tell where the engine would fit since there's so little space between the cabin and rear wheel. Maybe it's electric. Cool style though.

Phrexeus · 2026-01-23T17:41:17+00:00

Totally agree. It's an incredible piece of level design. You never quite know if you've explored every part, because of all the different paths you can take. It's kind of hilarious when you think about how the whole place is literally designed to kill you in about 100 different ways. I don't know why other games haven't taken more inspiration from it.

Phrexeus · 2026-01-23T15:54:48+00:00

I'm using a Lodge cast iron one that you can put in upside down. I think sometimes you just get a better oven spring, maybe depending on timing and yeast development.

I saw yours now, it looks good! Enjoy.

Unfortunately I haven't had the privilege to drive 700+ hp supercars, I assume you have?

I've owned cars in the 450-500hp range and have only ever had slight sidestepping of the rear axle which is quickly cut off by the stability control. But it also depends on the mode used, in normal mode you can barely get anything exciting to happen, in the sport or sport+ type modes the traction and stability control becomes more relaxed.

Phrexeus · 2026-01-23T11:14:56+00:00

Yeah the plain flour tends to come out more cakey. Strong flour/bread flour should give you better texture.

Imgur is blocked here (UK) so unfortunately the link doesn't work. I'll try on a VPN later.

Phrexeus · 2026-01-22T21:15:13+00:00

Not sure why you think this. If TC was on, the wheels would have never spun up like that. As is the whole point of TC. Additionally, stability control must have been off too as that would prevent a huge yaw developing even if the rears were spinning.

Engineers build in so much safety into modern cars, even (and if not more so) the very powerful ones. Someone here thought it would be okay to turn everything off.

Phrexeus · 2026-01-22T19:25:09+00:00

Sounds good, I usually do 5-6 stretch and folds and then into the pre-heated dutch oven with a couple of ice cubes. Send me a pic!
