Why I won't be participating in No Nut November

Reply in thread

Apparently, if you avoid doing a thing for a brief period of time, it is a demonstration of self-control and virtue. Thus, you are a better person and can nut, drink and eat uncontrollably for the entire rest of the year. I don't personally believe in such practices. Do anything whenever you feel like it, but in moderation.

The ankle and calf strength needed to do that. Of course, I'm sure I could've lifted MJ with one arm (especially now), but if I had tried that dance move, I'd have to be carried off stage on a stretcher.

Woman tries to stop looters in France

If you can afford Nike, you can afford a loaf of bread. I've met people in developing countries who are wearing sandals worn paper thin and are pushing most of what they own around on a cart. They get only one meal a day, and still refuse to steal - instead, they do whatever they can to make an honest living, however modest it may be. Those are the ones who deserve sympathy and respect, not the hooligans barging their way into shops to help themselves.

Life goals

Dear young people entering the work force: your extra efforts will be rewarded with extra work. You won't be paid more or experience progress going this way; you'll be Sisyphus. If you work enough on networking and making the right friends, you might climb the ladder, but it will be at the expense of wife and kids, if you have those. Only a select few can have it all. Remember to focus on the important things while you can.
