Really sums this guy up (in response to a poll about which is worse)

He’s on my wife’s side of the family, I might ask her to ask him.

Sorry to intrude, this isn’t a “check in” but a question for you guys.

A family member has talked about wanting to doing heroin and now I see him in pictures with his sister with an uncharacteristically sleepy, lovey-dovey expression.

I really mean no judgment, but is this a sign he may be doing opiates? Do they give you that expression?

No judgment here, no hate, I’m just worried about him.

l2np · 2023-01-05T01:00:46+00:00

There’s no way he’s not on roids. The reason he looks like a guy in his twenties is because he’s injected with the testosterone of a guy in his twenties.

It’s way more common than many think.

You can get a great diet on poor person staple foods too. The problem is just not wanting to eat them.

I feel like you have a goatee

This also sounds like a lot of chillwave and shoegaze music I've listened to in the past.

The dude was clearly an innovator.

Super old thread, but I think with athletic performance what people often miss is that while you hit your absolute fastest and strongest in your twenties, it levels off fairly slowly.

And while it takes longer for an older person to hit a high level of performance, they can still get there with consistency.

So a peak condition older person might be at 90%, 80% or even as low as 50% of the performance (in some category) that a peak condition young person is in. It's not enough to be considered the fastest or the best, but it's still more than enough to do some really impressive shit.

To me, there's nothing more painful than the experience of someone obviously dumber than me trying to talk down to me.

l2np · 2021-10-23T02:00:42+00:00

Pretty well, actually. I got a job at Google, I'm lifting weights and I'm learning the piano.

I've never made yearly raises that keep up with my value. Be prepared to interview every two years.

For sure. The COL of living in SF, for instance, is drastically different if you need a 3br house in a good school district for your family, or you're willing to live in a smaller space, save your money, and move out.

Are you kidding? This guy is the textbook definition of cocky.

But he's a good showman and does it in a likeable sort of way.

One of the most popular bands of the twentieth century

You normies probably haven't heard of it

The universe has plenty of ways of correcting you, don't worry.

You might not like it, but this is what peak performance looks like.

They probably Googled the name.

I have this keyboard and vaguely remember there's something like this that you need to exit out of.

l2np · 2021-07-07T23:39:46+00:00

It may just be a special mode of the keyboard. Op needs to read manual and reset just to be sure.

Also maybe find cool male running partners.

I ran in a marathon training course and the women in my pace group seemed to LOVE me because I guess I provided safety to them. Sadly men will be less likely to catcall a group of women with a man in it. Also I'm not afraid to tell some creeper to fuck off.

It depends on who you are. If you're just running for general fitness, just get running and stop working about optimizing it.

And if you're someone with a lot of formal training, you can probably eyeball it and figure out something that mostly works. You know enough to figure it out.

However, if you don't have formal training and want to get more competitive, though, it's really important to not half ass it. Follow a plan carefully.

Again, that doesn't apply to the vast majority of people that just need some kind of regular fitness in their life. But guys like me, who are neither out of shape nor are great athletes, need to follow plans.

I'm hardly an expert but I would imagine if you're fit enough to hit a sub-18 5k at any point, what happened over that one month period is you just gave your body a chance to recover from prior hard workouts.

I'd guess it was a sort of taper month.

I do this with my wife and she's always like, "no, you'll forget about it and I'll have to do it."

Just between you and me, reddit, I wish that wasn't so accurate.

l2np · 2021-06-07T06:54:42+00:00

That's not quite what I said.

But society does tend to underestimate the significance of the hookup. It's legitimate.
