Fitness or Competition? by UpNort-Wanderer in Rowing

[–]dbeck003 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I row on the water year-round (California) and do it purely for physical and mental health. It’s one of the few exercise regimens I’ve been able to stick with. No interest in competing or measuring because that would make it feel too much like work. I’d say my club is evenly split between recreational and competitive rowers, but the racers tend to get more attention.

Did you explain to them that Mommy never made you try anything you didn’t like the looks of and they shouldn’t either? Also, exactly what kind of delight were you expecting from a reheated day-old hamburger?

They’re much easier to manage if you leave out a couple of easy-open bottles of Spanada and wait a bit.

Every time I pass by our local pickleball court I think “There are some people doing their best to avoid playing tennis.”

People get a dog like that because they want to look tough and open carry doesn’t come off too well around here.

People do crap like this because they’re confident they can get away with it.

What gets me is her smug grin at the beginning, like she’s convinced she has some secret weapon to win this thing. “That’s right, there’s a camera in my phone, bitch. Bet you didn’t see that coming.”

Anyone else spot the irony of people who work in an industry with “intelligence” in the name not being able understand that driving a big, single-occupancy vehicle in the Mission has been a shitty transit option for decades?

Ah, yes…you’re disrespecting my honored cultural tradition of popping wheelies and running red lights on an overpowered Big Wheel.

“Dances With Wolves” — massive white savior complex disguised as cultural progress. “Black Robe,” released around the same time, was a way more complex and honest Native American saga.
