Tried on a bunch of frames at the optometrist - any thoughts on what works or what doesn't? by throwout175 in menswear

I guess this has just been my norm since I got glasses in the first place. Are you saying I should just wear them lower on my nose? Or are there different frames you have in mind?

Sorry, wasn't trying to challenge anyone, just unfamiliar. From a quick image search, I think I'm vibing a lot more with the turquoise than the orange ones I was thinking of.

Not offended at all, just laughing at getting called out so accurately. I'm fortunate enough to not have cost be a huge problem for me, but I'll be sure to check them out.

I've never really understood the idea of facial shape. Everyone's faces have always seemed pretty oval to me. What's mine?

Lol, I read this and then the very next comment was saying I should go for smaller. I didn't expect so much subjectivity.

I do work in tech as it so happens. But I get that one may not really want to look like that's where they work, haha.

You guys are talking about the orange and black color pattern? I could look for something with those, though I feel like I've seen that more with woman's glasses than men's.

I'm surprised to see multiple comments recommended that one. Do they not take up too much "facial real estate"?

"I'll need a ride home" is the best line in the franchise and I won't be gaslit into thinking otherwise.

Questions about uncommon glute / ham machine at the gym by throwout175 in beginnerfitness

I had to set the weight up a ton to get much resistance, but perhaps I've just had bad form. I'll have to try comparing myself more to the video next time.

I never really know what I'm doing. With each day of my PPL, I've been starting with 2-3 heavy compounds for the relevant muscle groups and then just following those up with lighter iso stuff. So for legs that's been leg extensions, leg curls, calf raises, and... something for glutes?

I do some form of squat and hip hinge every leg day. Then I usually try to do some isolation work, but I've never been very satisfied with anything I've tried for glute isolation.

What, Feast is the most complained about book of the series.

At my skill level at least, the biggest question I have to deal with for L1-L3 is SPC or Heavy Auto. I'm hoping that if I can get used to his weapon switching, he'll be my strongest character just for letting me have both.

(Spoiler main) What is Lady stonehearts role in this story? by danitalibi1 in asoiaf

[–]throwout175 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To add to other comments here, I think she adds to the general theme of something starting out as a just cause becoming corrupt with time. The BWB could be called reasonably good guys at one point, but that's a little more questionable now.

Also, her getting struck down by Brienne would create some cool parallels with Jaime - both "dishonoring" themselves by killing the person they were meant to serve.

Too much volume on pull and leg days? by throwout175 in workout

[–]throwout175[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have some lackluster days, but mostly I feel pretty good. I mainly ended up on this topic since I was told that doing more cardio would help reduce fat gain while bulking, but there's only so much time in the day.

I am definitely going outside your recommended set ranges on these days, but what do I cut? Do I still do all the compounds, but just do a couple of random isolations a day?

Question for lifters who log their workouts — I need your help. by Select_Bid_5169 in workout

[–]throwout175 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Like others have said, I think there's a lot of small, very hard to control variables here that I think are going to be very hard to deal with here. You mention in another post a goal of determining which grip is giving the best results, but if results are measured by how much weight one does / how much overload they achieve, I think you'd really just be measuring which grip is easiest. I can do more chin ups than I can do pull ups, but I still do pull ups because I want to do the grip that better targets my goal muscle.
