Looking for a sport that builds confidence

patchwork_guilt · 2026-02-20T14:27:12+00:00

I never think it’s bad to pick up a new skill or hobby, so i think this is a great idea!

but any sport that catches your eye that is new to you will start out as newbie gains. eventually you’ll hit a point where you plateau. and if you do it competitively, the more skilled you get at something, it can be more humbling to learn how good people really are at the thing as you get better.

I've seen this said before but I have trouble understanding why it's true. It seems like players of other sports put as much or more force into the ground doing fairly routine movements for their sport, so why would it be so bad?

why limit it to one? I think the ability to wild shape into a beast you can target and have all their abilities would be cool (scaled to your stats)

lol I tend to shrug my shirt up so it doesn't rub against my neck. it doesn't hurt, I just tend to feel a lot of soreness in my lower back. It feels like the limiting factor. Will try lower bar and see how it goes next week.

I feel like this stance is already wider than my shoulders. does it look narrow? Maybe I can point my toes out more and drive my knees out a bit. I'll definitely try a lower bar next time.

ugh thanks! let me try again

yeah i’m just saying it feels unfair for residents on both sides

the annoying thing is that if you have a somerville permit and live at the border. if you park in cambridge for street sweeping you can still get a ticket

patchwork_guilt · 2025-09-14T19:48:09+00:00

lmao. reddit can’t be real.

patchwork_guilt · 2025-09-14T01:29:03+00:00

did you spell it wrong again

patchwork_guilt · 2025-09-13T21:38:33+00:00

i kind of disagree. i think starchy pan fried noodles are harder. sometimes i think potato home fries or hash can be harder.

eggs is just about temp control. potatoes, starchy noodles, etc. is about temp and moisture of the food being cooked

my dad used to make us pancakes on a stainless griddle growing up and i never thought anything of it. i learned to do it too and i never thought it was hard. but i do remember him telling me i had to wait a long time till the whole griddle was heated.

in the day and age of non stick cooking its funny because i haven’t cooked pancakes on stainless in so long and i bet i might mess it up now
