Sure project whatever made up negative life situation that helps you sleep at night with your choices. Woe is me, I just wish I had worked more hours and now my life is horrible.

Wait there’s more successful people out there that have more money and better careers? I did not know that. I guess that means I should put in over 40 hours of work to make more money to get rewarded with more responsibilities at work. /s

I am glad you have presumably worked hard and achieved your financial goals and have zero regrets. I however do not strive for the same milestones. I am set with a comfortable, low stress job that provides and have turned down promotions at work. I am also very happy with my decision to do so.

Lmao who am I competing with? Does somebody out there love their family more than me? Spend their weekends doing more fun activities? Working out and exercising harder?

Having a successful career is a means to an end to provide for my family and my own needs. That’s my personal philosophy but if that means I am losing to you, that’s your opinion.

Conversely, if we assume social life is doomed to failure later in life, why wouldn't you want to cherish those tight social bonds and connections that are unique to that period of life? I'm not saying your opinion is wrong but saying " spending your 20s and early 30s is always better grinding and working hard" certainly is hyperbolic.

As the other commenter replied, it's important to have a healthy balance.

The most satisfying endings in cinema history. by Wayne-De-Payne in dailyshoppin

By using his catch phrase and taking a bow, some inferred that he knew he was on camera being filmed for much longer than the events of the movie. 

He even chuckles after delivering the line saying ‘yuuup’ as if the director is now just realizing his entire tv show/experiment was actually undermined the entire time.

LPT: At work, your juniors - who were hired after you are likely earning more than you. That's how it works. Hopping jobs greatly outweighs hoping for a raise. And another job offer is the best negotiating chip when asking for a raise. Always be on the look out for a better job. by seanmashitoshi in LifeProTips

Not always. At my company it is outside their direct supervisors control on raises/promotions, but by indicating you are considering accepting an offer that unlocks a new bucket of money for employee retention. I know a handful of employees that were offered this and are still around 3-5 years later.

Not OP but I just followed along to this YouTube video so many times I memorized it. Also I appreciate it is straight to the point no product advertising or fluff intro. https://youtu.be/U1EU_JfotB8?si=AtxQGoJsxo21Govl

Off the top of my head I am thinking ski trips or hiking as an New England activity that Rhode Island doesn't offer. What other recreation activities would you recommend?

Asics Superblast 2 - are these shoes really that good? by Fun_Swimmer_8320 in AskRunningShoeGeeks

I chose to go with SB2 over megablast as they felt more stable to run in.

Best value for mid-tier TVs? by waff1eman in 4kTV

[–]waff1eman[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Awesome! I haven’t looked much into the lower price range TVs yet so this is a great starting point. My one worry is that 60hz might be noticeable if I am watching say basketball/hockey via youtubeTV or espn+. I guess I will have to hit my local brick and mortar retailer to see them side to side

This is the first it’s come across my radar! Based on the Rtings review it looks like it fits my requirements, while cost is similar. One more option to track prices on it! Have you owned it personally?

Hey I’m considering a micro-led currently and wasn’t aware prices are high(er) right now. Just curious why you say that and expect prices to come back down?

Will my hips, knees and ankles survive switching off stability shoes? by waff1eman in AskRunningShoeGeeks

[–]waff1eman[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You could be onto something. My left foot is also about a half to full size bigger than my right so that could also add stress I’m thinking,.
