Oh lord yes

Losing weight from exercise alone is a fool's errand. You can't outrun your diet.

The secret to weight loss is to consume fewer calories than you burn. Install a calorie counting app and log everything you eat for at least a week straight to get a good idea of how much you're eating compared to how much you need, and then adjust accordingly. When done correctly, you can expect to lose 1-2lbs per week.

Those who are old enough, do you miss these days?

Reply in thread

I too miss the day when the internet was for geeks and nerds, (and anyone who wasn't never left MySpace). Now everyone is online, and the novelty has been ruined. Not to mention how much more centralized the internet is now, compared to 20-30 years ago. Everyone visits the same five websites/apps now.

What noise annoys you the most?

Reply in thread

As a random douchebag who cranks their stereo and roars through the street in my modded car, I apologize. I can't help it, I'm 37 but I still love loud music and driving fast.

That said, I'm not an inconsiderate random douchebag; I turn down the subwoofer and stay out of redline in residential areas. I also didn't cheap out on the exhaust. I got me a proper resonated catback, not a $200 fart can that drones on at 95dB even when idling. If you drive normally it purrs softly like a kitty cat. You'll only hear me is I want you to. And once again I apologize for all the random douchebags who do burnouts in cul-de-sacs and crank the shittiest hip hop in existence at 3AM while you try to sleep.

And as a fellow seafood lover, I want some of what you're smoking.

I mean what the hell is going on in the top and bottom right quadrants? What's with that bright orange, Kraft-colored noodle slop? And I can't even begin to describe what the other thing is supposed to be. Also, no cocktail sauce for the shrimp? No butter for the surimi? The shrimp doesn't even appear to be deveined! IDK about you, but I don't want to eat a bottom feeder's digestive tract along with all the nasties inside of it!

Just opened a new jar of jam, only to find mold in it.

You could probably get a replacement even if the jar is completely empty. I used to work customer service in a grocery store. One time a guy returned an empty wine bottle. I gave him a full refund. Why? Because the company steals from their employees every single day. I'm just evening the playing field a bit. Just don't be an asshole, and you'll probably get what you want.

‘If I switch it off, my girlfriend might think I’m cheating’: inside the rise of couples location sharing

Reply in thread

Exactly. My girlfriend will disappear for an entire day and not come home until 10pm. I usually have no idea where she is or what she's doing (mainly because I forget due to having ADHD), but I don't worry about it because I know she'll never cheat. How can a person even be with someone who they don't trust? Without trust, there is no relationship IMO.

BACK IT UP

Reply in thread

Yeah this is actually really hopeful in a fucked up way. I really hope they legalize psychedelics. They are an extremely effective way to get people to stop voting republican. Worked for me. It woke something up in me that made me realize how selfish and self-serving that entire party is. I'm the only one in my family who no longer votes republican, and also the only one who has tried psychedelics. I think that says a lot.

Are we winning yet?

Because half of Americans have no idea what's going on, a quarter of them support the coup, and out of the remaining quarter, 99% are burnt out wage slaves that are just one missed shift away from losing everything. We literally can't do anything because we are minority; just rats trapped in a maze.
