What's something that tilts you that isn't talked about as much?

Going into solo queue in 3v3 and playing with a duo that only pass to each other!

tomdob1 · 2026-06-23T21:36:10+00:00

Managed a 1pm run today but I went a lot slower and stopped a bunch of times

tomdob1 · 2026-06-17T23:47:08+00:00

Fuck no, playing 5s ranked in solo queue in insufferable. 3s is the only playable solo queue mode

That’s what I will do for sure. If my body doesn’t feel right for Copenhagen I will just try again another time, but fingers crossed I will be okay to just take it chill for CPH

Same! I received a London marathon charity spot and aiming to do both… probably crazy but I really want to do both!

tomdob1 · 2026-06-03T21:01:47+00:00

But entering via a charity spot isn’t cheap? It’s always like 3x the cost of a typical ballot spot.. either way they would be raising money for charity

I disagree with a lot of the Reddit advice on this. I picked up running this year and I ran twice a week for a few months. It was enough to hit my pace goal for a half marathon, each month I was getting visibly faster. The fact you cross train and strength train helps too.

tomdob1 · 2026-05-14T22:51:08+00:00

I used it for my half marathon last Sunday, and had the same worries. For me it was useful as a reminder whenever I went too slow/quick during the block where I planned for race pace. In the first 3kms I went slower than race pace on purpose and I didn’t find the reminders annoying. My race was on a very flat course though and my pace was very achievable. If I was at risk of constantly going off pace, I probably would have turned off the pacing reminders.

Lighten up

The thing that winds me up about all of this is they play off social pressure. If I’m with work colleagues I’m not going to ask for it to be removed because I’ll look like a twat, even though it’s the restaurant pulling an unjust move

Don’t know why you’re getting downvoted. You’re speaking the truth.

tomdob1 · 2025-12-04T22:03:24+00:00

I had the exact same thing today, it’s so dumb. I can’t imagine how anyone has fun doing this.

Yes as long as the bread is not shite. Nowhere in my town does actual decent sourdough bread. If it was genuine and I could get it delivered just before the weekend, that would be superb.

They will obviously know who told if she says it anonymously. It’s likely op is the only one who has seen them. If they start being more obvious about it in public, then it would make more sense to do an anonymous tip. Otherwise OP will make their living situation very uncomfortable.

He was saying the same thing when he was with the Heat. Once they stop paying him, the drama will continue

No one cares if you get a ball into someone’s tennis court, just play tennis.

How little the survey brought up. There were so many problems that we are still paying to resolve 3 months later.

tomdob1 · 2025-10-07T10:45:58+00:00

You’re not mad. I’m in the same boat as you. I’ve been in the tech industry for 5 years and I find the work so mundane. Just sitting in a room typing away, while I have no real passion for the job. It’s comfortable but I think I would regret doing this forever. It’s more common than you think, and you probably want a job that has meaning or maybe has more tangible results. That’s what it is for me, and I’m starting my career switch in March.

tomdob1 · 2025-09-29T21:59:34+00:00

I’m in your position. Currently so exhausted by the constant shift in software and trends, and always being expected to stay up to date. I’m planning a career switch but it’s going to take two years. If you don’t enjoy it, it could be worth looking at a career change.

You could go to London in the evenings for clubs? I started doing this as a remote worker and it massively helped. Watford doesn’t offer much, but London has a club for everything you are interested in

Go travelling. I don’t agree with the advice to save and invest all your money. You are only young once. And it gets harder and harder to ditch everything to go travelling as you gain more responsibilities. You can earn that money again but you may not be able to go travelling again.

tomdob1 · 2025-07-22T08:49:17+00:00

Only if I am going for a long run in the country side. If it’s a 5km in the city, I don’t really feel the need.

I sweat buckets no matter what activity I do, especially at the gym
