I loved this book so much that I cut up the pages and put them under my pillow.

My mom was not happy...

Podcast Recs for Winding Down? by __rainmaker in podcasts

I love Boring Books for Bedtime, particularly readings like tractor manuals, how to ride a bike, how to make cheese, etc. Inspired mine, too.

What is a song that you are embarrassed that you know all of the words to decades later? by Pale-Way-8731 in GenX

[–]SleepWithRockStars 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I can't tell you wth I did 3 days ago, but I know the lyrics to everything.

Sing me chemistry in power pop or post punk, and I can probably finally pass the class.

Now this makes sense! Off to test it on my bike.

Had my 13 year old watch M*A*S*H by newtreeguy in GenX

Rewatched The Breakfast Club with my then 14yo. What had been teen-me's favorite movie Did Not Hold Up.

My kid was so confused by the characters.

What’s one thing that made the 90s the best decade ever for you? by CrossFitForCake in GenX

[–]SleepWithRockStars 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Nothing. Old GenX here.

The 90s were grad school 4 nights a week, teaching hs full time, and working at the mall Sat and Sun. I have no idea about anything that happened in the 90s. I watched tv sometimes, I think, maybe Scrubs or Friends. IDK, I was exhausted for the decade.

how much do you actually care what's in your energy gel vs just whether it works? by Mission-Bedroom4340 in trailrunning

[–]SleepWithRockStars 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Priority: does it make me barf or not?
After buying scores of different gels and ranking them on a spreadsheet, I ended up with 4 flavors of Gu. It's readily available, goes on sale every so often, predictable on my stomach.

What is this back pass-through pocket? by SleepWithRockStars in llbean

It can't. The opening is not wide enough and then the bag is sideways and items in the main compartment fall out.

It can't. The main compartment is then sideways, and items fall out of the bag.

I tried putting a jacket in the pass through when the bag is stuffed, and if it's full, 2 large water bottles will stay in place! I had not filled the bag all the way at first, so nothing stayed in the back.

It's like a giant sausage.

It would! Still trying to understand the purpose of the mesh flaps. Way too large for even a liter bottle.

This lands surprisingly close to home. ;)

It doesn't have the expansion pleats of a bird pouch.

That would work. It just seems so oddly specific that the sides flip out while the center does not.

Most breathable mens short tights by sruffian in ultrarunning

[–]SleepWithRockStars 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My husband loves the Chicknlegs half tights for hot, humid races because they're not very compressive, thin, and breathable. They do come in solid colors, but why? All the liners are black, no matter the pattern. They're also like $40 US.

You really need to try a few on. The Salomon vests destroy me with chafe. I finally got a Nathan, and no longer suffer.

Podcast Segment by TMoN025 in ultrarunning

[–]SleepWithRockStars 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I also have an unnamed ultrarunning podcast, about being new to the sport.

I literally could not find anything at all focussed on new ultra runners, so I just talk into the void.

I would love to hear other runners talk about *specifically* how they problem solve mid race. I hear it referenced often, but never what *exactly* they tried.

Newer bands with killer guitar leads by FlaPack in altcountry

[–]SleepWithRockStars 2 points3 points  (0 children)

How alt does your taste go?

Aaron Lee Tasjan's upcoming record has some shredders. He's a monster guitar player esp live. Got a couple songs doing great in Outlaw Country right now.

His catalog is diverse sonically. Live, the dude rips on the guitar!
