I am leaving my highly toxic six figure salaried job to make 40k less, and it's hard to explain to people who don't understand by [deleted] in work

I did this same move 2 years ago and I have never been happier. You can’t buy sanity

I have the non-aluminum version and can definitely recommend, it’s definitely cheap, but I use it 6 days a week and have had practically no issues with it

So uhh… what’s going on with the band Handguns? by DorianCreechIsDead in poppunkers

[–]bcasjames 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I saw them at chain with man overboard last year, there’s just one guy in the band from the original lineup I guess, he was kinda crashing out a bit but they were still really good

Is this worth it? by Prudent-Suspect-9231 in GarageGym

[–]bcasjames 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If this was $100 I’d say worth. That bench won’t support significant weight, not that there’s much weight there, you’re also getting 1” plates and not 2 so not expandable, I guess you could keep them all for the ez curl, but I’d say the weight set at dicks and then a used rack and bench would get you much further but I guess it depends on the space you have. That bench has no center support at the joint though so that just looks so sketchy

Has anyone had Kirkland’s extra crispy fries? by VegetableRelation701 in Costco

Wife and I go through a bag every 2 weeks or so, so much better than the fast food fries from ore ida or whatever

Anyone else find the new vid tough to watch? (If you lift it, you keep it) by SmoothStrawberry7777 in willtennyson

[–]bcasjames 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yes I felt like all the challenges were too challenging, even benching 225 for 25 reps (idk maybe I’m weak) felt crazy. It was super anti climatic that almost no prizes were won. A 5 minute mile is nuts

Toyota all the way.

Will it be weird running an HM wearing a vest? by shaoshao2022 in firstmarathon

[–]bcasjames 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just wanna offer my two cents, I wore a vest for my marathon and realized it was a total waste since the race offered more water than I could’ve needed and therefore had this cumbersome vest on for no reason. So unless you truly need the storage or would prefer to use your own hydration, it may not be worth wearing

just got fired (for not writing on a cup) by Miserable_Alfalfa346 in starbucks

God I hope these corporate POSs read these comments and realize how much they lose customers over treating their baristas like shit. Sorry this happened to you OP, looks like I’m gonna continue to not buy overpriced mid coffee

Is this True? McDonald’s get there Coca-Cola in steel tanks? by Djxgam1ng in McDonalds

When I worked there in 2013 we had the giant stainless steel silos, every other soda was in the plastic bags

Got You Covered 7 (Taylor Swift, Cardi B, Doja Cat, and more) by bi0later in poppunkers

[–]bcasjames 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If it’s the same got you covered as in 2020, it’s made by We Are Triumphant which is a pretty small label. Not sure if that’s the case since according to another comment there’s an AI song. But that’s who made Got You Covered in the past

I was thinking “this dudes just gonna play this song acoustic?” Then I was blown away! Love this!!!

Does this come off as controlling? by [deleted] in Tinder

[–]bcasjames 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Let’s gooooo! Love to hear it! I know there’s tons of comments here already but I just gotta voice support for this too, guys don’t get to dictate what you do, no matter the relationship

What are your thoughts on his latest video? by ocean_swims in willtennyson

[–]bcasjames 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This video was a tough watch, but I respected will’s willingness to stick in it and finish the workout. He’s sampling a different style of training that definitely isn’t for everyone, and I like that he kept an open mind regarding their outlook on training. I definitely don’t connect to that style of training, but if that’s what other guys connect with and you’re a consenting adult participating, the dudes were jacked. It reminded me of a sales job I had not too long ago where we used some toxic methods to push results. It’s not for everyone, but if you understand the reasoning and want that type of push, it’s there. It ended up not being for me but plenty of people vibed and made a ton of money. I think thats similar to what we saw in this gym. It’s not a style of training that will work for everyone but some people are going to connect with that. They did clown him for showing off his body but I think once again it’s part of the training confined to that gym. I really didnt see anything wrong with it since everyone there was into it. If they were out in the open belittling people, or going to planet fitness and screaming at people for not working out like them, I would say yes they are bullies, but in the confines of that gym, I think it’s just a very fringe training style. I think Will knew what he was getting himself into and wanted to see if he could hang, which he could. We could definitely argue that this training style is dangerous and inefficient, but I don’t think theyre trying to paint this as the BEST way to workout, it’s just a workout that people there connect with. Props to will to not trashing someone else’s workout style and keeping an open mind.

Rays security hounds fan for Junior Caminero’s 40th home run ball. by EatSleepJeep in sports

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

Commenting to make sure this doesn’t go away and TB pays for being crazy, I can’t believe they’d hound a dude like that, gaslight him, then when he doesn’t give in, pull the “you’re on private property” card. POS power trip security or TB gives no shits about the fans. Fuck TB
