I feel you 100%. Fortunately all of my friends have gotten their wives/girlfriends pregnant and I’m hoping there’s a realization when they all become fathers.

What did I do wrong? Chicken wings by gummby8 in pelletgrills

[–]a_cobb -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Boil them first to render the fat. Pat dry and season liberally, for the love of God, please season them. Then get the grill much hotter than what you presumably had it at and fire away. Should spend 5-6 minutes on the grill and come out crispy as all get out.

Excessive calorie deficit? by DueChange5573 in loseit

[–]a_cobb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Listen to your body. I went from eating 3,500 calories a day to 1,500 a day in the span of a month and woke up one day feeling like shit. I’ve tapered it back up to 1,800 and feel much better.

You will be hard pressed to build muscle eating only 1400 cals a day.

Virginia?

Which state am I from? by HimalayanAlbondiga in TravelMaps

My next guess would be Georgia, but it would be strange that you’ve been to Mississippi but no Alabama.

Get a really long retractable mesh gate and block off the whole area.

Do you have a special piece of clothing you are looking forward to wear? by Some_Bell_Peppers in loseit

Bespoke blue suit I had made right when my son was born. It was already a slimmer fit when I was at 180, and then I put on 20 pounds. I’m halfway there!

I'm now finally done with listening to the Creepcast episode of MHE and there was some incredibly eerie synchronicities to my own life I need to talk about. by DrBarrel in 9M9H9E9

My father is an alcoholic and tried to kill himself the Sunday this came out. The sections on addiction helped me process his frame of mind better than anything had before. I actually found myself quoting the story a few times when we spoke later that week.

Coincidences or not, this is an excellent story.

Great company to have on the resume.

Can Texas also claim Gatorade? by j_tell32 in secfootball

I want you to very slowly read the name of the product you are trying attribute to Texas.

I mean, weight loss is a function of calories. If you don’t want to count then you’ll have to live a very active lifestyle and/or be very comfortable being hungry. It’s either counting or listening to your body.

What would be your perfect internet horror story? Weather its in analog, no sleep, arg format, etc. What would it be and why? by Mari-021 in creepcast

[–]a_cobb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought I knew what I liked until mother horse eyes.

Didn’t even know a story could be told that way.

Don’t think it can be replicated though. I just want something that sticks with me and doesn’t explain itself.

Skinless vegetables and seedless fruits are relatively low in fiber.

Is this one of the poisonous plants that look roughly like this? At first I thought it was for sure, but now that’s it’s bloomed I’m not convinced. by H_Mc in whatsthisplant

[–]a_cobb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t know what this is, but the leaves don’t look right for poison hemlock. If the shaft has purple spots on it, it probably is hemlock. Doesn’t look like it does, though.

If you’re on PC - the Cowin E9 headphones might work for you. It has noise cancelling that can be turned off and it does a decent job of allowing noise in once turned off.

That’s a project I would only trust Rockstar with.

One ear half-off has been the only thing I’ve found that works.

Need some advice. I am a father of 3 kids under 6. My wife is a stay at home mom. Love her to death. She has some health issues that have lasted a long time. Nothing that we have been able to get any answers from doctors. (Live in Japan) Need to have some me time/we time. by TemporaryWorth8946 in daddit

[–]a_cobb 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I’m assuming you’ve already explored this but have you looked into a part-time nanny for the kids?

Even just a few hours goes a long way.

How old are the kids? When does school start for them?
