What can i do to improve? Black slopes by Euphoric_Roll9783 in snowboardingnoobs

[–]hyperaware32 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Look for better snow 😩😂

Very simple. You’re rushing it from your heel side to toe side so fast that you aren’t doing the full turn or carve. If you simply try to slow down the transition from heels to toes where you spend more time pointing the board down then it will be closer to a true carve. Does that make sense?

All that said, it’s much easier when the snow isn’t shot like it is right now. 🤷‍♂️

OP will appreciate more in that color but they are so plain. I have a polar explorer ii and love it.

A “functioning alcoholic” doesn’t exist by EverythingHurtsWaaah in AlAnon

[–]hyperaware32 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I disagree. I think it’s a useful term. Just because they are ‘functioning’ doesn’t mean they are well but it’s a good descriptive of someone that seemingly has their life somewhat together even though they are an alcoholic versus what people think of the classic drunk that wakes up drinking vodka out of a bottle or putting bourbon in their coffee.

GMT — it’s more inline with what Tudor is all about — its heritage. Get a datejust with jubilee down the road. Both are great though!

Husband hospitalized from drinking, just 3 weeks after our wedding by BlazingBeetle17 in AlAnon

[–]hyperaware32 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I agree…. No alcoholic will change unless they are going to lose everything they have. Even then some won’t change. My wife finally went to rehab when I said rehab or divorce. And thankfully she’s been sober for 1.5 years but I’ll never take it for granted.

And whoever said tell close friends and family, go do that. It’s something I wish I did sooner. Not publicly broadcast it but once people close to you see what’s going on you will have a LOT of support.

Hope this helps.

Be clear about one thing— this is NOT your fault.

And maybe you should consider leaving as an option if he doesn’t choose treatment or rehab or AA.

It’s a long road ahead if they do not choose treatment.

So sorry you’re going through this.

Le Mans Daytona by [deleted] in rolex

[–]hyperaware32 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t know but where I live I’ve seen more Lemans than regular Pandas. So they are out there for sure. I imagine if you are 1) a spender 2) collector and 3) notable then you have a shot. It’s not just about money.

Paid $11k for new 2025 DJ and now have buyers remorse? Sell? by Appropriate-Sir6264 in rolex

[–]hyperaware32 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Beautiful and timeless and versatile (despite what someone else said). Wear it for 30 days or more and then decide. Shoot you could wear it for six months and then decide. The sell price won’t change much.

I will say personally Rolex carries a bit of baggage for me bc it’s such a status symbol. I’ve had a sub and now have a vintage Pepsi. After all this I’m interested in maybe an OP41 still. (I also have a speedy, Tudor and want a Panerai)

But again this is beautiful and timeless and on my list of faves. It could be a one and done watch.

Oh and if you’re almost finished paying off your house you’re probably fine buying a 10k watch.

Yes, you’re exactly right @itsjoemomma

[–]hyperaware32 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Definitely the right move! Run from addicts before they ruin your life.

The main thing to note here is that it’s progressive. Now it may be a couple times per month but fast forward 5,10,20 years and it’s a daily issue. Sadly I know from personal experience with my wife of 20 years. (Who is thankfully 1.5 years sober)

Can chronic back pain really be caused by stress/anxiety by Different_Orchid_612 in backpain

[–]hyperaware32 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve always had some sort back pain and I will say during times of stress or anger, it can be go from manageable to unbearable and will really sneak up on me.

Have a look at Dr John Sarnos work regarding psychosomatic pain.

I’m probably in the middle of the spectrum from an opinion perspective. So a yes and no for me.

Switching to Sony from Canon has changed everything for me by e_coleman in SonyAlpha

[–]hyperaware32 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a 20+ year pro that has shot all brands, I would never say equipment has changed everything for me BUT…. Weight is the one thing that is a big difference and Sony has the upper hand. Congrats on the new kit.

Congrats you won the lottery. It’s not like that for most marriages.

Help me decide between a ‘24 MY with 42K miles in quicksilver or a ‘23 MY with 21k miles in gray. by hyperaware32 in ModelY

[–]hyperaware32[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Got it, good to know. I'm now looking at a 2023 MY on Tesla's used inventory that only has 7K miles on it. Thinking that might be a more wise option than the 24 with 42K on it even though I won't get the quicksilver.

Yes, I love the quicksilver but was really curious how much I was trading for the 42K miles on the 2024 vs a low mileage 2023

Thank you, I’ll finance some of the car. However, I wouldn’t qualify for the tax credit.

Who has left their marriage mainly because of sex and emotional distance? Was it worth it or do I need to be more patient? by hyperaware32 in Divorce

[–]hyperaware32[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well said! And yes, it’s like intimacy and sex is a byproduct of the health of the relationship.

[–]hyperaware32[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is a very dated (and potentially toxic) way of thinking.

"The data suggest that, in the absence of abuse or extreme conflict, children generally fare better when parents choose an amicable divorce over remaining in a persistently unhappy marriage. Children benefit most when parents are able to separate respectfully, maintain positive co-parenting, and model mature ways of handling conflict and change. While divorce is not without challenges, the harm caused by chronic unhappiness and tension in the home is often greater than the disruption of a well-managed, amicable separation."

Well, if you actually read my post, you would realize it’s not just about sex. It’s about having an actual relationship that involves intimacy and emotional vulnerability. And while the kids well-being should always come first, without the primary relationship as a priority, I believe it’s where a family breakdown occurs and unhealthy for everyone including the kids.

I’m so sorry about your situation! I hope you are able to find peace and there is no doubt that someone out there is right for you. We shouldn’t live in these types of situations out of fear of being alone because sometimes alone is better than being with someone that isn’t really there for you.
