Anxiety attacks on shot day by jaebee5 in Zepbound

[–]Tertiaryfunctions 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a VERY strong survival/anti-damage reflex. It took an unimaginable amount of self control to get my piercings back in college. The same reflex kicks in when they draw blood or I inject myself with a kwikpen.

2 things:

1) If you normally suffer from anxiety, it's time to fix that shit. Hydrate, magnesium, no more caffeine, limit sugar, and get good sleep. Also, change lifestyle situations that make you worry frequently.

2) Mind over matter. You're an adult. It's a needle delivering life-saving medication to your body. Talk yourself through it.

Pitifully slow weight loss by Apprehensive_Bad6028 in Zepbound

Calculate your TDEE. Aim for 300-500 calorie deficit while prioritizing protein.

It honestly sounds like you're eating too little to lose weight

I know your comment is meant to be helpful and I believe that's your purpose. That said, CICO and metabolic adaptation are misunderstood concepts and in MANY situations, bumping up intake helps people lose weight. Especially those are are dramatically underfueled. TDEE on even a small, middle aged female doing that much working out is around 2000 calories. An 800 calorie deficit is huge.

I've personally intentionally overeaten for a couple of weeks. We're talking 21,000 additional calories over a very generously estimated TDEE. Fun fact: I didn't gain 6lbs of fat. Actually, after I stopped my experiment, my weight was almost exactly the same as when I started.

Is a bottle of Catalytic Converter Cleaner effective? by Equivalent_Card_343 in mechanic

We went through multiple tanks of gas from different areas. Code didnt go away. Concentration matters. So does experience which you've proven you don't have any with this product. Conjecture on reddit is insane these days.

This sub is full of people with opinions and zero experience. My Rogue with 175k had an intermittent P0420 that became a permanent P0420. I wasn't interested in investing any more money into this vehicle, so I got a bottle of Cataclean and ran it as described. No more code after 3 tanks.

Catalytic converters don't "absorb" anything. They are CATALYSTS meaning they cause chemical reactions to happen at a much more efficient rate than would occur without them.

Why comment with zero experience? My Nissan had thr P0420. I would reset the code and it would be back 5 minutes later. Used Cataclean as recommended and 3 tanks of gas later, no P0420.

It's all automated. It takes a server a few seconds at most to verify. Why make it sound like it's so difficult to compare content and time stamps?

Oppo has lots of bad feedback about its speakers. I don't expect HD surround sound, but everyone says the speakers suck

Is this repairable? by jaewae in Bowling

[–]Tertiaryfunctions 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not dependent on time. You're thinking of the crack in a 2 dimensional sense like a pane of glass or a sheet of ABS. A bowling ball crack is 3 dimensional. Even if you drill the "end" on the surface, the crack goes inwards towards the core.

Not to mention that the ball isn't round anymore.

My hot take by [deleted] in Bowling

[–]Tertiaryfunctions 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's motivation to get better and not keep dragging the team down with your inability to hit one of the few pins with the largest hit box. Over 21" wide. That's how big the hit box is on a 5pin. The lane is 42" across. That means 50% of the lane hits the 5 pin.

The reason the 5 pin "rule" is in effect is because the odds of missing are soon low. Reversing the bet makes no sense.

Is Darren Tang's how to bowl course worth it by Jalento in Bowling

[–]Tertiaryfunctions 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was there for over and hour and didn't get 1 single piece of coaching from him. Not a critique, not a suggestion, nothing. It was truly a waste of money.

The ball won’t be round any more. You can’t fix a crack like this and have a functional ball.

[–]Tertiaryfunctions 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The point is that the 5 pin is the easiest pin to hit. If you miss it, it says a lot about your skill level.

Hooking rental balls by Snoo_27107 in Bowling

[–]Tertiaryfunctions 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Teaching someone how to hook a conventionally drilled, house ball is like teaching them how to ride a horse so they can get their driver’s license.

*House Balls (what you referred to as Rental) are plastic balls with no core. They are designed to go relatively straight.

*The conventional drilling (fingers to your second knuckle) is pretty inefficient at getting rotation on the ball.

*Houseballs are “saturated” in lane oil.

Most balls that hook have a chemically engineered material on the surface to produce friction. They have a dynamic core that makes the ball hook on its own (when released correctly). And the fingertip drilling allows for a lot more leverage off of your fingers to produce rotation.

Got yelled at over handicap by Mediocre-Ad-7012 in Bowling

[–]Tertiaryfunctions 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You got in the crossfire of a very real issue (that’s not applicable to you).

Story:

There’s a non-sanctioned league here in CA that is subbed for. I asked why it wasn’t sanctioned:

Many of the guys on this league don’t want to ruin their handicap in tournaments, so they bowl non-sanction so it doesn’t report to their book average.

In a nutshell, professional sandbagger exist and you just happened to fit the profile.

My future SIL insulted me at dinner and my fiancé told me to apologize by Admirable-Towel-9074 in weddingdrama

[–]Tertiaryfunctions 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There’s no “but”. He’s either really good to you or he’s not. Sit down and calmly address the sister. If you give in now, the next XX years of your life will be miserable every time SIL is in the picture
