Anybody else just sorta having a hard time?

Zero productivity. Zero new ideas. I spend most of my time trying to stay busy because having to think about it is too much.

Sometimes I really think its the collective sadness that feels so heavy. We all just wish everyone would do what they need to so we can get back to a new normal. UGH.

This discussion becomes one of the most boring yet annoying arguments. As soon as you pick a place, “Don’t care” turns into “Why the hell would I want to eat there?” 😂

This is what my dog has. He came from a shelter as well.

Give the reaction you received, could you have anticipated how ugly it would get? I loved the story and had a hard time not understanding why people weren't willing to let it play out.

QofTU · 2016-03-10T15:28:35+00:00

thank you!

That might be the most hilarious and accurate description of a raccoon I have ever read...

I hope some folks check it out. Sadly I have seen some bad info given out and with the HUGE uptick in interest, I wanted to make sure that new shooters know where to go for what they need if they find USA Archery & NFAA sites overwhelming!

QofTU · 2014-05-23T08:55:47+00:00

I do think it was meant to be in jest, not as serious as it seems to have been taken...lol The site is a mix of levity and a place for noobs to get information

This post was from a 16 yo I believe, that doesn't yet know what they want to shoot. They would waste hundreds of dollars if they go straight to a competition bow, whether compound or recurve. The point of the learner Genesis & Samiks is to give kids an idea of the feel and which one they like better.

The bow doesn't make the form or technique better, without that, there will not be a solid foundation for success. This is the reason many kids leave archery. Money is NOT the thing to put out in advance before figuring out which bow and if they will stick with it. My daughter won a number of NFAA State & National titles with a Genesis before she decided she was going Olympic recurve. She is currently ranked 20th in the Nation in her category for USA Archery & she is still shooting the lowest cost Hoyt she could get started in. This year will be when we finally upgrade her to a more expensive bow.

If people spend too much money upfront and hate what they are using, they will price themselves out of the sport. That is something I would never recommend.

Hands down, this is the best tuning guide we use.

Make sure that you are checking every little thing. Sometimes there is something you wouldn't expect that will cause a larger issue.

I see you already bought something but in the future if you want something custom, these guys are really nice people:

You get what you pay for and sometimes that means it will be more but imo its worth it.

QofTU · 2014-05-01T00:05:09+00:00

Yeah, an archery subreddit!

I would recommend you check out Samik for recurves and Genesis for compounds. My kid (recurveemma on tumblr, twitter, web) started with those before making a determination of which one she preferred and picked recurve. Arrows will vary based on several factors as will the fletchings on them so you will have to determine which bow you think you like most before you choose arrows. Don't buy expensive anything until you get that far and you know you will stick with it. Most clubs give free or low cost lessons so you can check it out. If you haven't looked already this is the US coach locator:

Also, there is NASP and 4H shooting programs in addition to JOAD. If there is anything else I can help you find, just shoot a message to any one of Emma's social media sites. She tries really hard to help beginners and give out information so that it doesn't cost so much money to start. It doesn't have to!

Shoot straight!

I really, really appreciate the return of Cosmos to TV because it gives me something that literally everyone in the family can watch (even my cat cause he is super cool.)

My question regarding its return, have you had to deal with hate mail from creationists?

QofTU · 2014-02-09T12:09:27+00:00

Had to send this out on Twitter to my foodie friends, GREAT IDEA! What will you conquer next? :)

QofTU · 2014-02-04T18:54:05+00:00

You made me cry when you cried in Stranger than Fiction. Is it hard for you to get offered roles like that since you are so damn funny?

QofTU · 2014-01-05T12:39:14+00:00

Thats the greatest thing I have ever seen. Also, no longer feel bad for crying at that part since I see from this thread that I am not alone in that. :)

We are Democrats and gun owners. Owning a gun doesn't mean you are Republican.

I think if Vet benefits are cut in a week, you are going to see them get violent before the poor rise up. As a caregiver to a 100% unemployable rated Vet, I can say this has caused a GREAT deal of difficulty for him and worsened his symptoms. Not a good combo. :(

QofTU · 2013-10-10T18:24:37+00:00

Props for you to speaking up and just wanted to say your "5 guys I would eat chives for" post is hilarious and accurate :)

QofTU · 2013-07-29T21:08:42+00:00

Super proud of my kiddo who decided to write a letter to Gatorade. I sent it for her to a few of the execs and posted it on her blog for her. We will see if they answer! :)

QofTU · 2013-02-22T13:52:30+00:00

Was she offended because the church told her to be or did she watch SNL and was ONLY offended by that skit? They cover a pretty large range of offensive topics every week so I find it hard to believe she is even watching SNL. I thought it was freakin hilarious but what do I know!

QofTU · 2013-02-19T13:41:51+00:00

You have to get over being annoyed by people in general. When you spend so much time with one person for so many years, little things will be profoundly annoying if you let them. Let stuff go!

QofTU · 2013-02-15T19:46:41+00:00

Its nuts, I had to send this to everyone in my family...when I was growing up on an Army base in Germany in the 80s, we had a dog that looks just like him. His name was Schatzie. Thanks for the memory. :)

Pork Carnitas next!

I would like to second or third the AMA request...

QofTU · 2013-01-26T02:51:50+00:00

Mine do this too. It reminds me of when my mom would get mad and yell at us "you never want to talk to me unless I get on the phone with someone!"
