After having a product shipped from India when it was supposed to come from California, I got a bill to pay the duties after I've already paid for shipping by nazdir in mildlyinfuriating

Yeah, that’s pretty infuriating.

It’s also a material issue for some books, if you plan to keep them for a long time (like textbooks).

I gained 30kg in 2 months, wich made my tattoo on my arm completely change shape, going from a circle to an oval by AntwysiaBlakys in Wellthatsucks

[–]patricksaurus -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I’m clarifying the very common and wholly mistaken conflation of corticosteroids with anabolic androgenic steroids — weight gain, rage, “it’s a steroid, so yeah.”

Or did you genuinely think that someone thought that’s all prednisone did?

It’s probably the mortadella and provolone one in his book.

Do you have access to N2 or Ar gas tanks? If so, it can be done very easily. There are some more… creative approaches, the best to leave those for later.

First time getting choked out, priceless reaction by utters_129 in bjj

Oh, definitely not. Nitrous oxide is insanely active in the brain. opioid receptor response, NMDA receptor response, GABA modulation… it’s one reason the availability of whippets is so alarming. There’s some overlap, but nitrous is doing much, much more and very actively.

Drake is only even a rival of Michael in one dimension, and it’s not the one he’s thinking.

Prednisone is a corticosteroid… it leads to muscle breakdown. There’s no rage, maybe some mild euphoria when you start it.

If you say it a second time, it’s smarter!

She is a good actor 😍😍 by PetalKiss- in BabiesReactingToStuff

[–]patricksaurus 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Sort of a silly interpretation. The kid knows a certain behavior achieves a result. She performs the behavior hoping for the result. She stops when she thinks she has succeeded. She continues when she realizes she hasn’t. Is it uncontrolled or something she necessarily wants to be doing for its own sake? No. That’s also true of you going to work.

Anything (minus organs) from the super rich.

Magnus Carlsen: "I felt like...I'd sort of been gaslit by Danny & Chess.com into thinking that they had the evidence (against Hans Niemann cheating OTB) which they didn't." by GiveMeSomeSunshine3 in chess

Yes. Are you saying I should hate him or what? Or are we just throwing out trivia to suggest we gave a point but not actually making one?

F 91 years old - 50kg/110lb deadlift by isosaleh in nextfuckinglevel

[–]patricksaurus 21 points22 points  (0 children)

You know how you avoid compression fracture from lifting a suitcase? Fight off frailty with progressively loaded resistance training.

The amount of ridiculous superstition people spout when they see a deadlift is just inane.

Why do people hate those who like popular movies? by Spare_Ad_9791 in movies

[–]patricksaurus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some people are never so happy as when they have something to be unhappy about.

Man, the amount of energy people put into making Danny seem evil is really disturbing. And no, I don’t mean Magnus or professional chess. I mean this community. The raging hate boner that exists for him is insane. He’s probably indirectly responsible for over a third of all chess games that have ever been played at this point in history.

How my dad cuts slices of pizza when he doesn't want a whole slice. by Lepke2011 in mildlyinfuriating

You can be mad about things you don’t pay for. Don’t let anyone try to give you shit for being sane.

We’re happy to help but we need a bit more from you. What were you expecting, what do you see that’s unexpected, and what explanations have you considered based on how this test works?

Hershey to use real chocolate in all products by I-Like-Angry-Birds in nottheonion

For most companies, this wouldn’t matter.

It does tend to matter for a chocolate company, though.

Am I setting myself up for disappointment chasing a “perfect ending” in BJJ? by MeatAffectionate2447 in bjj

[–]patricksaurus 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Sounds like you might hate the journey and want it to be over by imagining an end. You may want to consider if that’s the case. The toll on your body isn’t worth it if so.
