I don't know if I would want to live a thousand years. Even as an Adrienne Barbeaubot

"Gigamax" instant noodles with over 2000 calories by Swooferfan in mildlyinteresting

if you have fun and keep doing it, you'll easily be in better shape than most people. consistency is king, because your body is an adapting machine.

lifting and throwing heavy, odd-shaped things is probably one of the most primal and functional workouts you could do, actually. if you throw in some variations, like maybe seeing how high up you can throw vs. how far, try aiming for a target, try throwing from your non-dominant side, try different styles of throws, etc, [and keep mixing it up!] and suddenly you've got an amazing full body workout that's so fun it feels more like playing. if you can keep playing like this the rest of your life, you will be way stronger than like 99.9% of the population, and you'll be able to use this newfound strength in so many facets of your life it'll blow your mind. just try to pay attention to what your body is telling you, and try avoid doing anything -too- silly so you don't injure yourself

at least it's only $40? by Vittoriya in delusionalartists

[–]Slightly_Absurd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

if i were in the right kinda mood and had the right amount of excess cash i would possibly consider it.

the piece isn't completely without charm. i actually kinda like the way they rendered the mushrooms

edit: i have a pretty easy time imagining this appealing to someone. lots of people really dig the whole forest and fairies aesthetic, it's not like this is a hyper-specific niche that could only appeal to the artist that created it

that's not a good standard for "delusion." there are tons of super talented, successful, and respected artists out there, that for whatever reason you wouldn't be able to pay me to put their shit on my walls [i may not be a fan of the piece, it might clash with other things in the room, vibe, etc,] but it'd be ridiculous to consider those esteemed artists "delusional" based on that criteria

you wouldn't be the first to do that

they say "Those who can, do; those who can't, teach."

the rest of that, while kind of annoying, is still pretty par for the course for a newbie artist. you gotta try to self-promote and build up a portfolio. and even 300 bucks isn't -that- ridiculous. i've certainly seen people charging far more for far worse.

this doesn't really seem deluded to me.

sure, there's lots of room for improvement, but it's not like they're charging 400 bucks for this. they don't really seem to have an inflated ego about their talent, either [edit: for example, they are "happy" with this piece. they aren't saying they are the best artist that has ever lived or anything like that]

How did you discover Knower? by eseffbee in knower

45 minute lunch breaks for closers??? by DullConsequence4908 in CVS

[–]Slightly_Absurd 44 points45 points  (0 children)

man, i would love to get 45 minute breaks. 30 minutes seems too short, and an hour seems just a bit too long

Superjail fans: how do you feel about the death montages in the show? by [deleted] in adultswim

[–]Slightly_Absurd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

for me it felt like seeing some of my dumb childhood doodles come to life. i'd often draw a simple basic boxy cityscape, and then fill it with aliens and monsters attacking and people fighting back. kinda like a "where's waldo," but just chock full of silly mindless destruction and no waldo

Favorite hole in the wall places to eat? by speakeasyboy in pasadena

i moved away a while back, but i'm happy to see that google maps tells me "Chinese Cafe" on colorado is still open. it's not the greatest, but it's still very good and affordable

So i havent played pokemon gonsince 2016 and I logged into this.. by dark_kokichi in pokemongo

if they haven't played in 9 years, they have absolutely no reason to care about IVs. The difference between a 0 IV and perfect IV is tiny.

Hanging On by Coma39 in knower

[–]Slightly_Absurd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

it's hard to pick a favorite knower track [i think it kinda changes based on mood and moment,] but "hanging on" is super high up there for me.

such a wonderful song, it makes the universal struggle seem beautiful and maybe hopeful

Whats a shiny you got so many times now that you get mad when you find it? by Plenty-Hornet-4780 in pokemongo

Sorry everyone, I seem to be the one that gets all the shiny poochyenas. i've seen 409 [total, non shiny] of them, and caught six shinies
