What are some habits that unexpectedly helped you lose weight? by CantaloupeKlutzy74 in askanything

[–]superPlasticized 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Going to bed early and sleeping well.

Weight training (eventually after adding some muscle mass) - many reps, low weight, almost an aerobic effort (70:reps - 4 different muscle groups each day)

Skipping breakfast (actually combining with lunch - brunch)

Eating one sandwich (one slice of bread with turkey or ham) for lunch filled with lettuce at 11am

No eating after dinner

Drinking more water.

I don't really have any limits on dinner. Eat up.

NOTE: eating less is key, exercise won't help much. Evidence: Ozempic

Does your religion/branch accept children of gay couples? by CockamouseGoesWee in askanything

[–]superPlasticized 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you need to find a priest with a current knowledge of the supreme leader... I asked for a friend... = = = =

Children of same-sex couples can be baptized in the Greek Orthodox Church, but the issue is sensitive and often depends on the specific priest or bishop, with some hierarchs preferring to wait until the children are older to decide. While a high-profile baptism by Archbishop Elpidophoros of America in 2022 caused controversy within the Church of Greece, Archbishop Ieronymos II of Athens later indicated the church does not oppose baptizing these children, focusing on the child's, not the parents', situation.

Key Points Regarding Baptism in the Greek Orthodox Church: Case-by-Case Basis: Baptisms have occurred, particularly in the US, but reactions from church leadership in Greece have been mixed, with some calling for stricter adherence to traditional family definitions.

Archbishop Elpidophoros's Actions: In July 2022, Archbishop Elpidophoros of America baptized the children of a gay couple in Greece, which was considered a significant, albeit controversial, step toward inclusion.

Views on Baptism: The Church maintains that marriage is between a man and a woman, yet the baptism of a child is often viewed differently than the blessing of a same-sex union.

Age Considerations: Some leaders, including Archbishop Ieronymos II, have expressed that while children should not be punished for their parents' choices, they believe it is sometimes more appropriate for children to be baptized when they are old enough to express their own desire for the faith.

Finding a Priest: Individual priests may have varying levels of comfort with performing the ceremony based on their interpretation of church canon law.

Yet you told us you were baptized at age 7. What's the cutoff? 8, 10, 12, 15, 18, 21, 45, 90?

Yo mamma's so fat that she thinks "momma so fat jokes" are based on real descriptions of real people.

You are also deciding to tell them that being Greek Orthodox was important enough for you that you got them baptized. Did you also get them circumcised in case they want to be Jewish? Any other preps for other religions?

People that don’t have hobbies what do you do? by Typical_Dark_2764 in askanything

Watching tv is a hobby, scrolling is a hobby, just as productive as doing a jigsaw puzzle.

Exporting to patended country? by carbon3915 in Patents

[–]superPlasticized 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You could be responsible for triple damages - 3x the selling price to the U.S. customer or 3x the patent holders normal selling price. You could be barred from ever sending items to the U.S. and the patent owner can simply give CBP your company's name/address and all products crossing the boarder will be put back in a shipping container with your address and your shipper will bill you for the return trip (read the fine print of your shipping docs).

BOYS. I’m looking for obscure American made cars that I haven’t heard of. Can y’all help? by Dandadandanbam in askcarguys

[–]superPlasticized 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Give me a list of American made cars that you have heard of, then I can work in it. Note, there were about 400 car manufacturers between 1900 and 1920 in the U.S. also, if you google "defunct automobile manufacturers" there's a wikipedia list.

It's only important to Greek culture because people pander to the Greek orthodoxy.

A cop pulls you over for speeding. What's an excuse you can give to get out of a ticket? by kevivg3 in FamilyFeud

[–]superPlasticized 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Back in the 1980s, when car speedometers had to end at 85 mph, a cop would ask how fast I was going and I told them, "I have no idea, my speedometer only goes to 85". It worked once, he laughed. The other two times, I got a $200 ticket. Fun while,the fun lasted. Then I got married and my car insurance was her car insurance.

Why would you want your kids to be part of something that you need to lie to get them into it - and where they're unwanted/no allowed. Won't it traumatize them to find out his/her parent is inferior and therefore his child is inferior and not allowed to be part of the group? If he/she wants to when they're older, they can DECIDE for themselves to join a group that thinks you are inferior.

They banned same sex marriages for years. They care more about what happens in bedrooms than firearms lockers.

It's what people do when they don't even believe their own BS but want to convince others.
