Look, I’m based out of Indianapolis and I’d definitely be down for a project like this if we're talking about something with an actual art house vibe... just shoot me a DM with a plot synopsis so I can see what we're actually dealing with here...
Yeah, maybe I am a weirdo... but honestly, who cares? I’ve got friends who actually roll with my crazy ideas and bullshit, and even though I head out and grab a drink now and then, I’m not exactly the life of the party. I mostly just live in my own little world, but hey, it doesn't bother me one bit.
You don't need to be some stand-up comedian just to fit in; you just have to be yourself.
Look, if parents won't even let their kids step foot outside...
Maybe they should just give them $67 for Saturday instead. Once those kids finally discover the world of booze and drugs, they won't be spending all their time glued to a computer screen anymore...
Look, I’d much rather stick to the hard stuff like heroin or coke, but if they offer me some "normabele," I guess I could try kicking this habit too 😁 😁 😁 😁 😁 😁 😁 😁
Hey guys, can someone break down what Wing Chun actually is for me? (And please, if I'm spelling it wrong, set me straight.) Where can I even go to train this stuff? Could you give me a quick rundown of the techniques or maybe compare it to something else so I get the vibe? Also, anyone here from the Chicago area? What’s the deal with that kickboxing club "South Side 2"? Is it any good? It’s basically my only option since I can't make it to training anywhere else.
I’m dealing with the exact same mess... I’ve always been a bit on the heavier side, but once I quit playing water polo, the weight started piling on for real... Now I’m following this plan that I'm praying actually works, so give me your honest take: 1. I quit smoking—back when I was a smoker, nobody could drag me out for a run, but now I'm actually putting in the effort and getting some exercise in... 2. I started training martial arts. 3. I stop eating after 6 PM; if I get hungry, I just stick to fruit and water. 4. No soda or other garbage like that. 5. Cut mayo, chocolate, and all the sweets out of my diet entirely...
One thing: is muesli actually any good? And what about cornflakes—are they worth it?
Maria Moore4 said:My advice? Don't eat anything. Seriously, nothing. Okay, maybe one meal. A week. Just drink water and nothing else. Work out as much as humanly possible—sports, gym, running, whatever. Start smoking 😍 it’ll kill your appetite.
😲 😲 😲 Whoa, hold up, don't start smoking... I started back in 6th grade just to be cool, you know? I smoked through 6th, 7th, 8th, then 9th (took a two-month break), 10th, and now that I'm in 11th, I've decided to quit and honestly, I'm doing alright... I'll light up a cigarette or two if I'm feeling super stressed, but otherwise, it's all about willpower.......and hey, I sent you a DM about this topic.
Lisa Rodriguez84 said:Where can you even find this stuff around here? Or do we have to get it from overseas?
You'll find it at the nearest dive bar or strip club... The stuff they have in Mexico actually hits the spot, while the American version is mostly just cheap trash...
I rarely cross the border myself. Last time I actually did it was back in late June, and honestly, it wasn't even planned... So, what are we talking here? Like three 16-ounce beers or what?
swiftscout8 said:That kills me. But hey, everyone’s body works differently. Three beers and I'm done for because I know the next day is going to be a total wreck.
True enough... depends on the person, right? Plus, there's me—I've still got some life left in me, haha... But the mornings after? Forget about it, I'm toast. I always make sure to chug two or three glasses of water before hitting the hay, though.
Since I’ve already stumbled onto this thread... let’s talk about the fallout from drinking...
Here’s a real-world example: say every Saturday I knock back about six beers before I even hit downtown just to get the engine running... or maybe a liter of some heavy stuff... then I'll grab another four beers once I'm out on the town. For me, that’s the sweet spot—enough to take the edge off and relax, but still feeling totally in control. So, what do you think? Is there actually going to be any long-term damage from doing that?
Mr. Pes said:Then we’re left asking what life even actually is. We only see how it affects physical matter, but I’d argue that life itself isn't material. 🙂 What we call death will eventually just be the expiration date on matter. 😁
Sorry I'm late to the party here...
Why can't life be purely material? Maybe we just aren't ready to wrap our heads around—or maybe we just refuse to accept—the idea that life, consciousness, or whatever you want to call the "soul," is nothing more than a collection of molecules. Maybe consciousness exists exactly like this because we, through the long grind of evolution, built it to be this mysterious, ungraspable thing. Yeah, sure, that sounds cold. It sounds clinical and totally heartless. But why wouldn't the human intellect be just another byproduct of evolution?
