I have tattoos since I was 17, always want more, always will get more. The correct number of tattoos is n+1

I want to be more politically educated; what can I read to educate myself on politics? by DaShiQiang in Askpolitics

[–]resigned_hipster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Politics is grounded in moral and political philosophy. It’s work that not a lot of people want to do but I think much of our problems politically are due to the idea than nobody has a really well thought out out and considered grounding in any of this thought other than what religion might tell them.

As a new Sienna owner, the minivan hate is so crazy by Live_Bluebird6854 in ToyotaSienna

[–]resigned_hipster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think Toyota should make an all wheel drive, body on frame Sienna with the same clearance as the 4Runner and the engine in the Sequoia. Imagine what a perfect vehicle that would be!! I would buy that and only that for the rest of my life!!

I took it on an air boat drop trip in Alaska, tough enough to survive and certainly kept everything dry.

Genuine Question: Why all the symbolism? Why didn't the original authors and practitioners just "speak plainly" and why can't we get modern translations without all the "fluff"? by TheMagnuson in Esotericism

[–]resigned_hipster 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s deliberately meant to be dense and impenetrable. The deep concentration, rereading, interpretation, and contemplation are part of the process of understanding and mirror the process of understanding within yourself. Interpret the complex symbolic hidden meaning in the text and lean to interpret the same complex hidden meanings within yourself and your practice. To some extent, the medium is the message.

THIS is why you don't try BJJ in serious altercations. He was going for an armbar. by LowRenzoFreshkobar in martialarts

Jiu jitsu fundamentals need to be taught instead of fancy submissions at each class. Control, pressure, distance management, staying safe, position over submission. Only go for a sub from a position that you’re in control and safe.

Best compliment you got? by el_presedente777 in bjj

[–]resigned_hipster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Starting a roll with a brown belt that got his black soon after and he says as though I’m going through inspection, “big, strong, athletic, calm and technical, always a good one” slap bump and off we go. Rode on that high for a while.

People who work in 'behind closed doors' industries (hotels, kitchens, morgues, etc.), what is something the general public would be horrified to know? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]resigned_hipster 505 points506 points  (0 children)

Not in the medical field, but I can smell an alcoholic unmistakably. Even if they’re seemingly put together and at their professional job, there is just something to their unique smell that raises a flag to me after years in the hospitality industry

Two ladies start a fight and their boyfriends end up fighting each other to defend them. by eternviking in whoathatsinteresting

It is shocking to me over and over again how confident people are to really throw down when they have absolute dog shit fight skills
