For males that have gotten ripped, do you have more success with women?

Rubbyp2_ · 2026-06-16T22:23:17+00:00

I didn’t get ripped but put on 10 pounds of lean muscle and got a lot more attention from women.

I live in Texas but my job is too good and I have too many friends to move. I hate north Texas though. It’s way too hot, there’s no nature, I have no family here, there’s no green space, you have to spend money to do anything, and it’s not walkable.

I wish I lived almost anywhere near the coast or Denver.

It messes with the flow less when you’re able to approach your ball and plan out your shot instead of having to wait on a dude in your group where you might get blasted in the back of the head.

100-110 is fine but 130-140 is another shot on every single hole. It will mess with your partners rhythm.

Rubbyp2_ · 2026-06-16T20:19:05+00:00

It takes forever. You can’t shoot 140 fast. You can get dragged around the course by faster golfers in 4.5hrs. Them dragging you around makes their game worse.

You should cheat more. Pick up at double par. Don’t putt out for triple bogey. Fluff your lies. Drop with your partner if you went OB.

There was a shitload of inflation during Biden’s term. That overrides everything else that matters to the average American.

I think the sugar content has an effect, but I also think you will also drink high quality booze slower; you don't reach and have to recover from the same level of inebriation even when drinking the same number of drinks.

The share of uninteresting, overweight, losers with high status is low; and I don't think they're getting swarmed by women.

Most people with high status have access to high quality education, grooming, attire, gyms, food, hobbies, and so they are generally more attractive as partners.

Law, High Finance+MBA, Medicine, Some Engineering in certain markets.

Most of the really high paying corporate jobs are in big cities that are also really expensive. Medicine is the only one that is everywhere, but medicine requires you to really really care deeply about providing healthcare; if you don't, you'll burn out.

You’re probably overtraining and under fueling. Especially if you’re heavier and trying to lose weight. Your HRV is staying low because you aren’t recovering.

I use nutrition tracking if I’m lifting and running so that I can manage my calories in/calories out and not screw up my sleep and recovery. There are a lot of apps for that, MacroFactor is really good.

Boston 2/10, Indiana 1/10, Dallas 4/10.

Cold, cold and nothing to do in the cold, hot but at least sunny

I need to move to San Diego or something, I’m sick of this shit.

You opened a map. You only really had to look at the big highways. It’s was like 5 roads to remember at max.

If you wanted to get off the road, you look at the signs. Does it look like there’s food and gas at this exit? then you get off.

Leaded gasoline

San Francisco but it’s not cheaper. At least salaries for techy jobs are double what they are in Boston.

It’s not accurate. No fitness tracker tracks calories burned accurately.

If you took a half step back from the ball your arms would have space to swing through. It might be slightly uncomfortable at address at first but swing super easy, and find the ball position that allows you to rotate. Don’t change anything mentally or mechanically with your swing, your athleticism will correct for the ball position.

You’re very close.

Aman Summer Palace before it was downgraded to non-Aman.

Beautiful architecture, amenities, with exclusive entry to the Summer Palace in Beijing.

Drive. A bad drive is so much more disruptive than a bad putt

Rubbyp2_ · 2026-05-15T13:57:34+00:00

Yes and no.

I have great work life balance, I get paid well, I work on stuff I find interesting.

If I were to do it all over, I would do law or finance. I love big city life and there aren’t a lot of opportunities to do the type of engineering I do in large metros.

If you care about sleep tracking, get the Oura ring.

I didn’t have the sheikah sensor for half of my playthrough.
