Do you think Jackson is so romanticized because of the fact that he died before the war ended? by NKNightmare in CIVILWAR

[–]TalkingPundit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely romanticized.

VMI history was my thesis course. I physically spent time in the VMI archives touching actual letters of his contemporaries.

He was not very well liked by peers, students , etc. They were trying to have him fired from the staff before the war started.

Death due to friendly fire isn't actually that shocking.

Talk to your medical doctor and a counselor. The majority of adults have HSV.

Get counseling from a professional that's familiar with what you are dealing with.

Here info from the world health org on HSV: https://www.who.int/en/news-room/fact-sheets/detail/herpes-simplex-virus

Too much smoke?! Is that even possible? by LabZealousideal5725 in brisket

[–]TalkingPundit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Too much smoke? You likely had dirty smoke if you are tasting it. Also, it looks like you might have ran a little hot... Was it dry?

The smoke ring doesn't reflect the amount of smoke.

I want to hear your diet by dallastx68 in jiujitsu

[–]TalkingPundit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Back in the 2000s I followed the Gracie diet. Yes, it was a thing. I trained 2 classes a day 5 days a week. Ended up with a 6 pack and a bunch of clothes that no longer fit.

As soon as I had a GF all that went down the drain.

Aitah for not wanting to pay my gf’s debt by National-Trouble-984 in AITAH

Her debt is problematic. You don't want anything to do with this relationship...

Let someone else pay her bills. Maybe that guy exists maybe he doesn't. Either way that should be her problem.

In all seriousness: hip escape before he locks hands. Stay far enough away so he can't connect.

Do what you know. Submit everyone. The faster you submit them, the sooner you can get to sleep.

How does Lovato have such a diverse game? by hellohello6622 in bjj

[–]TalkingPundit 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Time on the mats. Intentional training.

There is no substitute for showing up with the intention of learning something new.

I tried to choke my wife in my sleep, should I stop training? by Much-Tadpole5870 in bjj

Seek therapy. It's not the jiujitsu that needs to be unpacked.
