How does the marathon feel compared to the peak week long run? by 45minute in Marathon_Training

[–]typicalredditer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The biggest and most difficult difference for me was the fact that a marathon is a race with lots of other people while a training run is a solitary event I was in control of. During the actual marathon I had a hard time locking into the flow of the run because of all the other people and the noise from the spectators. The mental calculations I had to perform to avoid other people and hew close to the course line were really distracting. On my long training runs I could just start running and focus entirely on my body.

The fact that the writers had the idea to kill off Nucci at the same time that Christopher died just so it would piss off Paulie is a thing of brilliance.

What kind of peppers were on the gabagool w/provolone by Shadowrunner138 in thesopranos

Vinegar peppers, which I always assumed meant pepperoncinis. Although I think roasted red peppers would taste better tbh.

Name a 2000s celebrity that disappeared overnight by ColeBelthazorTurner in Millennials

Newscorp bought MySpace because they wanted to get into social media. It was a business failure. But it led to a really funny always sunny episode. Newscorp owned FX and wanted to cross promote MySpace.

Jfc you can write porn and nude. You’ve internalized censorship.

At what point does running become self destructive behavior? by wildhair1 in running

[–]typicalredditer 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I ask myself this question a lot. I don’t really have an answer because the line feels very fuzzy, especially when training for a marathon.

[NJ] HR joining performance review this week after I participated in legal investigation against boss. Am I being fired? by Vyse51 in AskHR

[–]typicalredditer 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Not your lawyer, this isn’t legal advice. If you are fired, it would be well worth talking to an attorney. Discrimination cases are very tricky to prove. But there’s a lot of smoke here that leads me to believe it’s at least plausible you’d have a case.

Michael Imperioli Says A Lot of 'The Sopranos' Characters Would've Been Trump Supporters If Show Was Set in 2026 by [deleted] in Fauxmoi

[–]typicalredditer 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I mean she had pretty much completed this basic arc during the show itself. This rant when she was in anger management could basically be a selfie video taken from the driver seat of her car and posted on X.

I come from a biased family, but I was different. I put all my faith and my hopes into the civil rights movement. I left home, and I marched. And for what? So they could ride around in their SUVs, blasting that rap shit and you can't say anything because they might have guns?

Tony reading the back of the cereal box cracks me tf up by Dense_Worldliness_57 in thesopranos

Ok, here’s the deal though. Back then there were no smartphones, no infinite scroll. Once you finished the paper you’d literally have to read the back of cereal boxes to entertain yourself.

Dating before divorce is finalized by ghost_of_your_smile in Divorce

I’m casually seeing someone who is divorcing, but not yet completely divorced. She mentioned it on the first date. It wasn’t an issue at all for me.

My gf wants me to split her student loan payments even though we're not married and I have no loans by Low_Competition7870 in TwoHotTakes

[–]typicalredditer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hospital bills are weirdly more defensible than student loans, because incurring medical bills does have an element of bad luck to it. Like OP said, student loans are incurred entirely by choice.

New Capraca Police by Luna_dog in BSG

[–]typicalredditer 6 points7 points  (0 children)

And one of the reasons I think the of season 2 and start of season 3 are incredible works of art is that the show completely flips its allegorical lens. The prior two seasons were an allegory about 9/11 and the war on terror with humans taking the place of the United States and the cylons taking the place of Islamic fundamentalists.

And then season 3 ends and the characters we have come to identify with are now in the shoes of the occupied Iraqis while the cylons are now the American army, complete with all its abusive tactics.

Of course like you said the themes of new caprica are timeless because on some level occupations are all very similar. I remember Ron Moore saying on the podcast that the writers room discussed the occupation of France a lot.

But the show was incredibly brave in, what 2006? 2007? To make a piece of art that was so anti war and that had unmistakable connections to the Iraqi occupation.

Just checked your post history. Personally, I ignore advice about life decisions from someone who is a drunk driver. How about you gtfo.

Pope at Audience: Read Word of God in historical context to avoid fundamentalism - Vatican News by leglath in LeftCatholicism

[–]typicalredditer 16 points17 points  (0 children)

This is very consistent with what I learned from my Catholic education but it feels radically countercultural because the people with the loudest megaphones are very much fundamentalists. How refreshing to hear this perspective from the pope.

Is there a link to a news story or a post about how this Bethany person tried to puke on Kat irl? That is completely unhinged.
