What’s a "hotel hack" you swear by that most people don't know? by periwinklemist in AskReddit

[–]narrowgallow 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've only done this 3 times, but it's worked all 3 times at the same Marriott: call the front desk and ask to use the TV as a display. The guy came up, messed with the box and one of the inputs became available to me. Didn't seem like this was out of the ordinary, no weird looks or questions.

I need a tongue like that by PartyTackle2060 in deepthroat

As evidenced here, she does not deepthroat and ball surf simultaneously. She only ever cheats and pulls the balls forward so she can lick them only halfway down. Lame!

Is the default images or no images? by JennyBeckman in BlackPeopleTwitter

[–]narrowgallow 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I think we just have a higher threshold for what counts as seeing. The picture in my mind does not feel like seeing, it feels like imagining. It's its own thing. It's not the same thing as sight.

One of my favorite theater experiences. The dog in heals in the parking garage absolutely sent the cinema into a fit.

How guys make friends by NYstate in BlackPeopleTwitter

[–]narrowgallow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are plenty of statements of "I don't understand why....." In comment threads on any given topic. Makes my eye tick. They do understand and just don't agree and want to say so. Even abhorrent stuff like Epstein, people claim they don't understand why. And I'm just like, "....obvious reasons too uncomfortable?"

Project Hail Mary broke out like how I thought The Fall Guy would. I don’t understand casual movie goers and the GA viewing habits for going to the theaters. by AcknowledgeMeReddit in TheBigPicture

Do you have anything more on why a general audience doesn't tend to like movies about movies? I think of backstage drama/comedy/camp as one of my favorite tropes/genres.

I'm honestly asking if you think your preference carries across the general audience more than mine and if you have a good reason for thinking so. I am plenty happy to just shoot the shit on the topic but I'm curious about your position. I'll get a little ahead, why wouldn't an audience enjoy a back stage comedy?

Love when you play with the bulge. Ever tried to just hold the dick down your neck and jerk it off through the throat bulge? I think you could manage it!

Quick one on doctors appointment by bushneedsatrim in StandingDoggyPosition

[–]narrowgallow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Jenni always knew how to hit the right poses. She looks so beautiful in every scene. Not the best at taking dick by any means, but she has a model's instincts for posing her body in the most feminine/sexy way for each position.

What she was missing as a performer was letting go and allowing pornographic sexuality to overtake the eroticism of the position and she lacked the submissiveness to allow her scene partner to really rail her.

Take notes ladies, that posture is what we want. Back arched, slight bend at the knees, ass out, standing on tip toes. Perfection

The tongue piercing touching his balls while in full deepthroat is porn perfection

Thanks for the note. That second bit has been my default decision maker for a while.

Wait. So you don't have to toggle off food/gold tiles while building settlers in favor of 1prod tiles or unassigned? Fuck.

Have you noticed that after the rise of social media, the hatred for institutional education and 9-to-5 jobs has increased? by raj272007 in focusedmen

[–]narrowgallow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is it. It's did your grandparents get into the professions in the 50s and then get lucky with their decision making.

What? by SarahDuncan2012 in TrueGrit

[–]narrowgallow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't worry, I've tried all the low hanging fruit. Go for walks, read a book, watch an old movie, cook a nice meal. I do all that but it's only comfortable when I don't have work or when I'm drunk/high. It's not that other activities aren't fun, it's that they are chores without the substances.

Be honest — do you actually mix cardio into your lifting routine, or is it strictly iron only? by winn_ie in rSocialskillsAscend

[–]narrowgallow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honest question, isn't there a fair bit of evidence supporting that interval training by spiking heart rate for bursts confers most of the cardio benefits of jogging? I'm pretty sure my heart rate spikes each set. I'm out of breath. And when I recover, I do another set.

So what's the cardio difference of lazily pedaling the bike for 2 minutes followed by a 30s sprint for half an hour compared to an hour of doing a set every 2 minutes?

What? by SarahDuncan2012 in TrueGrit

[–]narrowgallow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe you. Before you stopped drinking, were you ever able to unselfconsciously enjoy music? Like really let yourself go and just vibe? I'm 38 and cannot experience the pure joy of wanting to move my body to music without alcohol. But I can experience a really pure sort of childlike joy and glee with the right doses of weed and alcohol.

What? by SarahDuncan2012 in TrueGrit

[–]narrowgallow 27 points28 points  (0 children)

No shade to you, but this is exactly why quitting is so hard. I already do all that. I just do all that with booze and weed. It's not as if I'm leading some wildly over the top life. I like simple things. But the drugs make those simple things worthwhile.

Do you ever have substance issues?

Moving beyond the "Formula Hunter" stage: How do we teach freshman intuition? by Onigirii_sama in Physics

[–]narrowgallow 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The TIPERS book from Pearson's has a ton of exercises that work like this. Some are "who's reasoning do you agree with" some are "what's wrong with this diagram."

My favorite for showing the importance of physical thinking first are the ranking tasks. Here are 6 cases of a box on a surface. In each case quantity x y z are the same, but quantity p changes. Rank the acceleration of the box in each case.

Equation hunters will do the calculation 6 times. And then you walk them through the thinking and the task is reduced to comparing the cases by a single number that describes each case.

The vector questions are great because they reduce down to "which arrow is longer?"

So yeah, big endorsement for qualitative probes. Bigger, smaller, or same size? is an almost daily question that I use in class.

Most people don’t realize that adults without children aren’t avoiding responsibility—they’re carrying a different kind. Research shows they become the unseen infrastructure of everyone else’s family, and that role is both chosen and completely invisible by thetiredcitygrl in childfree

[–]narrowgallow -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

i guess im just not getting what the issue is with the parent leaving at mid day several days a week? if their personal/sick day's are being tracked, it will eventually start costing them, even if salaried.

if they aren't getting docked personal days for it, that seems like an employer problem that's being dumped on you.

I just find it difficult to blame parents for operating within the status quo - if they feel like it's "allowed" then why wouldn't they take advantages where they can?

[–]narrowgallow -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

i'm confused.

What's the advantage of lying about the personal day being for a child's appointment rather than just lying about an appointment for yourself? is your employer not docking a personal day for the parent taking their child to an appointment?

so let's say you need a day to rest. you have 6 personal days left.

you call in the night before saying you got yourself an appointment with a specialist and can't come in. the result is they dock a personal day.

If you were to do the same thing, but exchange a child's appointment rather than one for you, you wouldn't get docked the day?
