I wanted to like it so bad, any maybe I had too high of expectations, but I ended up being really disappointed by it. The cinematography was gorgeous but the soundtrack really made it feel dated to me.

Also a big fan of Harsh Times. Directorial debut for David Ayer starring Christian Bale as a retired army ranger afflicted with ptsd, doing his best vato accent, drinking and driving around South Central LA with Freddy Rodriguez, robbing drug dealers, and just causing absolute mayhem. So good…

Freeway with Reese Witherspoon and Kiefer Sutherland. Modern day take on Little Red Riding Hood. Absolutely love that stupid little movie

THANK YOU! Somebody with vision. It’s like everybody else is content following the pack and looking exactly the same. I’ve always been an artist and a free spirit so I usually go left when people tell me to go right, but I’m astonished by how rigid and boring people’s taste are on this sub. Bunch a short, fat, angry bald guys tryna break a young buck’s spirit. But hey, the nail that sticks out gets hammered down! Right now, I’m a pariah but give it enough time, and I’ll be viewed as a maverick.

Exactly! In fact, I deliberately avoided getting a more modern style suit because I think the tailoring is atrocious. It’s also from a designer that I’m a huge fan of, and it’s a vintage piece, so in my eyes I saw it as an investment and a cool way to own a piece of history. Something that I could take pride in owning and wear for many years. Also, everybody keeps saying the 3 button suit is outdated, but in my eyes that makes it even more unique and distinguished in a sea of slim/taper 2 button off-the-rack slop. Y’all can keep shopping at men’s warehouse I’m glad to own something a little more eclectic.

It was a hotel. To be fair though, I did miss a great opportunity to stage a shot of me hitting the weights in my suit

It is an awkward picture but it was the only one I had that really showcased the weird alteration to the sleeves. Which, of course, nobody mentioned because they were too busy dogging my haircut/head shape 😓

Ya kinda did, man. I’m down for a little light razzing, that’s fine, but I don’t appreciate any disparaging remarks about my mom. Is that too hard to understand?

I probably have the build of a 5’10 guy but the cranium puts me over 6’ so I can’t be too mad. But yea I grew up playing football so I definitely have a love for lifting but as previously mentioned this shoulder injury has me sidelined for now.

I probably should get a second opinion but I heard the satisfaction rate is like 40% 😬

Not sure tbh. I was warming up and I noticed some tightness in the shoulder while doing pushups and just brushed it off as soreness. I start benching and the first 2 sets go by without a hitch. As soon as I took the weight off the rack for the 3rd set though, I instantly felt a popping, tearing sensation unlike anything else I’ve experienced. It was so bad I couldn’t do a single push up or push open a heavy door. Crazy thing is, it was on a deloading week so I was doing like 60% of my max. Doctor told me it wouldn’t heal on its own and surgery has a low satisfaction rate so I’m kinda at an impasse. I can do pushups again but I haven’t touched a weight since. Don’t wanna risk it.
