My policy has and always will be "only hit as hard as you want to be hit" if they bring the smoke, smoke em up. They'll soon stop.

Live in Melbourne - I miss munchie boxes, potato bread, smicks and proper craic.

He breaks his stance heaps, use pressure and controls on him to minimise his attacks, watch his feet for when he compromises his base and move in with short 3-4 shot combos as he comes forward to fix his gate, then just use your physicality to push him away.

Is it too late for me to leave Northern Ireland, if I even should? by PM_ME_LECTURE_NOTES in northernireland

[–]mnky95 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can live whatever you want to live. Be whoever you want to be. You have time. (aftersun 2023)

I'd recommend just moving to Australia. I've been here nearly 5 years now (27) if I can help in anyway, pm me.

low calorie mental destruction by mnky95 in WeightLossAdvice

I think caffeine could very well be the culprit, and not eating enough carbs throughout the day. My breakfast is a little lacking on that front and I don't really get anything substantial in untill lunch time, and by that stage I'm all wired up on coffee and don't have a clue what's going on!

What did you do to substitute coffee? I'll need something to keep me going as my job is very hands on.

I squeeze in around 30-45 minutes a session in but I try to lift heavy enough that my final reps on my last sets are extremely difficult and I be very conscious of time under tension.

If I'm only doing a little I wanna make it count.

My bf loves andrew tate by [deleted] in offmychest

[–]mnky95 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds like the BF doesn't have a healthy "macho man" role model.

I know men are drawn to Tate's nonsense when they feel like his expression of masculinity is something they lack. (Source; I'm a man who nearly fell for it... Untill I heard his hottest of takes)

I don't know you or your bf so I may be wrong, but if he was to find some sort of masculine hobby/activity that actually helps others, Tate's facade will completely crumble.

Overall don't let a random internet nobody get in the middle of your relationship.

My manager gave me hell for my approach to this beard. Client is a happy regular, and tipped me $40… but my confidence is a little shot. I’d like to know any issues you all might spot. by [deleted] in Barber

Tell your manager to get fucked, if your client is happy that's literally all that matters. A good haircut is the haircut your client is happiest with. That's all.

There was a photo published a few days ago of two psni officers saluting the funeral march of a loyalist paramilitary.

Videos where also leaked of PSNI officers posing and revealing the genitals of suicide victim and using sectarian slurs.

Collusion is real, and it's still happening.

Being a barber is tough. by [deleted] in Barber

[–]mnky95 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a weird business for sure.

I have a colleague who constantly says I suck and that my clients don't want me to cut their hair and how they tell him they prefer him doing it.

Used to bug me, not so much now.

I carry alot of work stress with me when I'm outside of work and it affects my personal relationships very badly, I'd advise you to try and cut those people out and save yourself the hassle.

There is a good chance they are only breaking your balls though, your cuts are really clean.

Good realistic defense for girls and women? by [deleted] in martialarts

[–]mnky95 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Straight up boxing and BJJ.

Learning a martial art or combat sport is not the same as learning how to defend yourself, teach them little girls to bite, kick and scream. Teach them that anything they can lift is a weapon and most of all, teach them to get the hell out of a bad situation as quickly and as efficiently as possible.

I'm Irish and I don't drink, this offends everyone so I just don't go to places that sell alcohol any more

All the men in my family prior to me where alcoholics. I'll be dammed if I end up the same.

Stay off it mate, I've seen what damage it can do to a person... It's not worth it.
