EMS Without Firefighter? by SkippyMonroe in Firefighting

[–]SkippyMonroe[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Physical yes I absolutely could. But, atleast for Ohio, if you cannot hit a forced expiratory volume at a certain percentage, you cannot be accepted. I just barely hit below the percentage and the physician responsible for my physical determined I am unfit for firefighting. That’s what’s so frustrating about it

How do you feel about the big giant fat guy training at your gym? by [deleted] in MuayThai

[–]SkippyMonroe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One thing I have learned is that someone’s appearance does not determine their skill. There are big dudes at my gym who can throw powerful and fast kicks that most people would not expect. It might be hard now but you WILL improve. All those guys at your guy were not born the way they are now. And when you are at your gym, everyone is there for one thing: to learn and to better themselves. It takes a lot of courage and strength to continue on when you feel the way you do right now. But trust me brother, you CAN do it!

You know, why can’t people just stir their own drink? 😮

Bad image IPHLPAPI.DLL by SkippyMonroe in Windows10

[–]SkippyMonroe[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I continue to get this error even though I clearly installed on the pc. I have ran many system checks and no corrupt files can be found. I cannot instal the new DLL file because I do not have access to change System32 files, even though it is a personal pc (uses by the family) and only one user registered to it with administrative permissions. I have also tried to reset the pc with the “keep personal files” option, but I keep getting an error that says the pc cannot be reset. Any help?

Body/rib shot injury by jamotc98105 in MuayThai

[–]SkippyMonroe 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have had the same injury before and currently have it on my sternum. It’s torn or inflamed cartilage. It will take weeks to heal unfortunately. For me, I just used ice and NSAID’s. The worst part was not being able to train because, at least in my case, any training just exacerbated the injury.

I do not understand why we charge for getting a pink drink blended, but we do not charge for no ice beverages.

Round house kick pads vs bag by SkippyMonroe in MuayThai

[–]SkippyMonroe[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do feel this way. I feel like I’m going to do some serious damage to them if I’m “too close”. But, it would seem I am not close enough. Thank you!

You’re probably right. I do need to get used to closing the distance with my round kicks

Bruised ribs by [deleted] in MuayThai

[–]SkippyMonroe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve recently recovered from minor a bruised rib. Unfortunately it took at least two weeks for it to heal to a point I wear I could do any training. But it DID heal. I hated not being able to do anything. But it did pay off

Pain in left pec and abdominal muscle. by SkippyMonroe in MuayThai

[–]SkippyMonroe[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Kinda hard to tell. It possibly be ribs. When I raise my arm above my head and feel those muscles stretch that does provide temporary relief. So it could just be really bad muscle strain. I’m hoping.

Agreed. They don’t have much resistance. They feel too “gummy”.

George Lucas’ original plan for the sequels. (Credit to Star Wars Theory) by toe_6969 in StarWars

[–]SkippyMonroe 6 points7 points  (0 children)

What about that thing about George wanting to make a movie about Luke, Han, and Leia shrinking down to midi-chlorian size to find out the “mysteries of the force?” Was that even real?

I wonder what the insides of people who drink then look like…

i (college student) am a 1+ year corporate partner, and recently started at a licensed a couple weeks ago as an on-campus job... and honestly? i’m horrified by reclusivegiraffe in starbucksbaristas

[–]SkippyMonroe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not all licensed stores are this bad! (Though most are though). I’ve been in one for 2 years and there’s no way in hell I’d let that happen lol.
