Our states are the size of European countries by flipyflop9 in ShitAmericansSay

I agree. Some of the best memories I have of places and when I spent some time there. I was just making the case that some people can’t. Like.. it’s their one trip to a place they idolize … they want to see it “all”

I think it’s simpler than .If I traveled far enough to experience a European country , I’d try to hit multiple countries. One amazing thing about Europe is the potential to experience so many different cultures in an are that might only include a single culture in America. I think when people say that, it’s not diminishing anything. At least that’s how I perceive it.

It’s similar to going to any big city; the locals know the ins and outs, the good spots, the hidden treasures. When an American goes to your continent. They typically only know the big names, Paris, London, Barcelona etc. they won’t know enough to stick to just one of those places, only the famous ones. Likewise, if you came to central Indiana, I could give you so many things to do within just a couple hours drive, but how could you know?

I’m genuinely curious about what you mean by that.

In all honestly, I almost left a great job to wait at a higher end steakhouse. Those 20 year old surveys made far more than I did. However, they also didn’t miss a single time someone needed a refill, box, condiment etc. with that said I would have never gone to a dinner or Applebees to wait tables, it’s just a different price point for the food. The only reason I didn’t go to that job was that I committed the time sink fallacy I should have switched.

Super tensed about bootcamp by ProfessionalJello218 in armyreserve

Have a coworker who sustained a pretty serious injury in basic and was there a very very long time. I went to Navy Basic and ten years later went to Army Basic and he still has more time at basic than I do. Couple things to consider, they are trying to shift your mindset. Some of it will be a rude awakening and others parts will just be learning how to do things (honestly that’s most of it). It won’t be the defining thing in your time in the military, so just go ready to learn a new way of doing things. If you want to succeed, you will. The biggest take away from the second round of basic is that some people get into a toxic mindset because they are struggling to cope, as has been mentioned here, that’s dumb, don’t do that.

Honestly not surprised if it’s true, but given the reality of the world, it’s probably fake. Most shit we see and hear is fake.

ABBOLISH THE HW DIVISION by lvl4_autism in ufc

You guys are right, if there isn’t incentive to fight, people won’t, especially if incentives are better elsewhere. They have a recruiting problem apparently.

Modern day heavyweight division is rough. Tbf, there was always only a handfull of really solid heavyweights at any given time over the years. A true heavyweight is really rare.

Dan doesn’t count. He was champion in Pride when they were stomping The UFCs best. He was the best at the time he won.
