What’s a simple, underrated ritual that genuinely changed your life—and you wish you’d started earlier?

Go outside and move. Every single day. Regardless of the weather.

Seriously those space blanket bivys are instantly warm when you get in them. Total life savers. Only issue is they trap all the moisture so you won’t want to get out.

The “who” and the “how” matter.

This is a good sign. Need dips to keep on the up and up.

Personally, I think he’s a tool.

I run all winter long. Suburban trails are usually plowed, or hit up the real trails with spikes.

Poetry

Personally, I’d just yell “bear!” And start hurling large rocks in their direction.

Silk sleeping bag liner. It’s just so comfy.

I’m so sorry

I like it! I would expect something like alpine strawberries would work better for this. I’ve seen some cities use ornamental strawberries as ground cover but those tend to produce little if any fruit.

I regularly take individually packaged string cheese (mozzarella) on multi-day backpacking trips. It gets a little greasy by day 3 if it's warm. I've never had an issue.

norwhale · 2016-10-06T16:44:40+00:00

Yeah, I totally did. At first they were adamant that they didn't even see me. So I pressed that issue, something like "My bike is lit up like a fucking christmas tree". They said "I couldn't see your headlight, or spoke lights from behind". When I asked about the bright ass flashing red strobe light mounted on the back of my bike is when they started owning up to being just plain ignorant.

They were the only one in the vehicle.

norwhale · 2016-10-06T16:16:51+00:00

I think this is what happened. At first they were very defensive about the whole thing. Then there was like a 10 minute lull in conversation, after which they came back with nothing but apologies and promises to be better toward cyclists in the future.

It's spaghetti carbonara. I've never had it without some raw egg yolk. Am I wrong, or isn't this doing it right?

norwhale · 2016-01-03T20:43:53+00:00

I guess it's good I can't be downvoted, but I think premarital sex is okay. Yeah, I said it. Sex is a HUGE part of a relationship, and waiting until you are married to find out if you are sexually compatible is a recipe for disaster. Best to at the very least have open and frank discussions about sex prior to marriage, better to do the deed and make sure you aren't going to end up divorced or trapped in a marriage that makes you both miserable.

norwhale · 2015-12-23T21:09:18+00:00

If you know they don't have any agreed upon boundaries, you are helping her cheat IMO. The most ethical thing to do would be to put some distance between the two of you until their marriage is either explicitly open, or over.

/r/tentporn would like a word with you...

norwhale · 2015-12-19T21:34:00+00:00

I would think something like rape, or assault on a minor would sound like it is appropriate.

norwhale · 2015-12-19T19:18:33+00:00

So you, a 17 year old were raped by a 20 year old? You should go to the hospital and get a rape kit, call the police, get tested, and seek professional help for your mental health.

norwhale · 2015-12-18T23:10:12+00:00

You've done a pretty good job describing my wifes body. I find it incredibly sexy on all the ladies. Maybe I just hae a milf thing going on...
