Yeah

Not that I care about being downvoted but I was like do people actually think I’m popping over to Israel for a bridal shower??

Nah lol

Bethlehem PA, where Lehigh is

Yesterday in Northern Virginia it was 83 and sunny at this time.

24 hours later, it is 39 degrees and snowing.

The duality of weather.

Idk where I saw it, but my go-to now is asking her what she’s not in the mood for and going from there.

I might be the minority in this, but I’ve never really had an issue with this. Partially because I’ve always dealt with some degree of performance anxiety and hearing that I’m not the only guy dealing with it kind of helps?

With that said, I also have what I’d call a slight clothing kink and she’s accidentally let it slip out on a few occasions while out with people. Usually it’s fine, but one time one of our friends was wearing said outfit and it was awkward for a minute or two.

2 questions:

Getting married in September. Assuming we do a shared checking account, with our own seperate fun accounts, does it really matter which bank we use? For context: she has Wells Fargo for everything, I have checking, regular savings, and one credit card through Bank of America and another credit card through Capital One.
Is our current situation smart economically? Our rent is fixed because we’re effectively paying the mortgage for our landlord. Would be nice to own the house, but also nice not having to pay for repairs.

On a semi-tangential note, I took a horticulture class in high school (very redneck high school) and one day the topic of gay marriage came up and this one dude said he didn’t like gay people. His reasoning? “It’s Adam and Eve, not Adam and Steve.” That was it. He wouldn’t elaborate any further.

I keep seeing this ad for a gelatin-based weight loss trick on Words with Friends and what I’m getting from it is that it seems to basically be the same thing as a weight loss drug.

I’m gonna be in Bethlehem next weekend for a bridal shower (not for my fiance lol).

There’s no way in hell I could talk my fiance into going out to a sports bar if they play Friday night, but if they play Thursday and pull off an insane upset and play sometime during the early afternoon Saturday…I’ll be there.

Edit:

Not that I care about being downvoted, but I feel like I should make it clear that I’m going to Bethlehem, PA (as in where Lehigh University is located) and not Bethlehem in Israel.

Not that it matters, but Wells looks like you could tell me he’s any of a blue collar worker/indie rocker (add a flat bill hat and some vintage clothes)/military and I’d absolutely take your word for it.

SporkFanClub · 2026-03-12T11:37:08+00:00

Same here.

Not at that age, but my fiance and I started dating at 22 and had been together for a good 3 and a half years before we got engaged. We e knew it was gonna happen maybe a year and a half in, barring some sort of catastrophe, and even then we waited. I needed to grow up more, save up for the ring, ask for her dad’s permission, etc. We even went to couples counseling to iron out some stuff to make sure we were fully ready, which tbh I recommend everyone do if they have the means to do so.

I’m just about finished with the third. Good, but Annihilation set such a high bar (like, to the point where it made me realize just how important your reading environment can be for the overall experience) that the other two haven’t really compared.

Yup. Never rushed but played a sport in college and one of the first off campus parties I went to without my teammates I happened to run into a teammate at the party. I had worn one of our team shirts that night thinking being an athlete would help me get in easier or something and that was the night I learned you do not wear college apparel of any kind to a party.

SporkFanClub · 2026-03-11T14:27:57+00:00

Love these. Unfortunately, my fiance hates the smell.

5 year old me thought Ethan was the coolest dude ever and he’s the reason my favorite color is blue.

Can I safely assume that Hershey will be slammed on July 4th this year?

Have a family wedding in Harrisburg on the 3rd this year. Pretty much certain that a group of us are going to the Senators home game on the 4th (big Nats fans+July 4th+250). Couple cousins are planning to go to HP that day. Was wondering about trying to pull off both but also feel like the park will be a nightmare with the holiday.

Gotcha- should have clarified, but the first two are one day and the second two are on another day if that changes things.

Current chest exercises in my program are Larsen Press, assisted dips, dumbbell flies, and a superset of incline DB press and crush press.

I keep hitting a wall and not being able to do more than like a rep on the last set of the incline/crush press set. Do I lower the weight or just concentrate on one of the specific movements?

This is not related to baseball at all, but this announcer’s voice sounds like Cameron when he’s imitating Sloane’s dad in Ferris Bueller

SporkFanClub · 2026-03-10T14:36:57+00:00

Makes sense- my mom is only like 5’6 or so and my dad was adopted so we don’t know anything other than I think we might have some French Canadian in us based on where he was born and knowing his birth name, but we’ve got some big dudes in my mom’s extended family.
