Bourbon will absolutely kill you—which is exactly why I make sure to enjoy a glass just once a week. 😍

granitebadger17 said:Oh man, I’m seriously torn between a cold beer and some moonshine😕—you know, trying to decide which one counts as the true "country" drink (I need to run a little comparison here, right?)—but honestly, I already know the answer: definitely the moonshine... yeah...

What a great little troll.
Moonshine is basically just water at this point. Just keep drinking! 🤦

granitebadger17 said:Look, I know I am—but if I’m being totally honest, I'm lacking a bit of creative spark here—so please, someone, help me out with some actual ideas...

Maybe just knock back half a bottle of bourbon and take a long, aimless stroll along the coastline☕

granitebadger17 said:Alright, I need some serious help here—for real. My friend and I are plotting a little sabotage. We have this colleague who is the ultimate yuppie, a total "high-class wannabe" kind of guy. He’s always preening himself while picking at his organic salad during lunch breaks or ducking off to a luxury spa for a quick fifteen-minute meditation session, all while acting like he’s intellectually superior to everyone else—basically convinced he's the reincarnation of Sartre. Anyway, he keeps talking about introducing us to his inner circle, claiming they’re all brilliant, attractive guys who can't stand anything unrefined. Well, since this guy is driving us absolutely insane, we want to discredit him. If we show up looking completely uncultured, his "sophisticated" friends will realize he actually hangs out with a bunch of low-rent hooligans.
So, what’s the game plan? How do we lean into being the ultimate rednecks? How should we talk? What topics should we bring up? What’s the dress code? Where should we hang out to really sell the act?
(P.S.: Please don't let any small-town girls take offense at the title!)

Honestly, just the concept behind this question is primitive enough on its own. You clearly aren't afraid of anything! ☕

I really can't stand Russians. Though, I have to admit, Russian women are quite lovely ☕☕

Just throw on something dark and let's go—we'll be hopping from house to house all night. Once you knock and they open up, just start laying into them about how they messed with you... tell them you're losing your mind and you're ready to take everyone out if they don't stop playing games. That's it, simple as that.

Aaron Lewis7 said:Mark Martinez4, you really ought to spend a bit more time reading up on this and a little less time just assuming things.
Food is the foundation, sure—but proteins definitely play their part too.

Honestly, if you just go out and devour four CSOs a day, you won't even have to worry about protein intake anymore.

Honestly, just grab some protein powder, a quart of milk, five eggs, and some CSO—you’ll start seeing real results in no time. Plus, you’ll save a decent chunk of change while doing it...

I just find myself hoping that I won't go out from some natural cause or some random, nagging illness. Honestly—that would feel like such a wasted life ☕

I'm checking out tomorrow

🙄

I’ll just grab my gear and go—no one’s going to bother me then.

Recommendation dr. Tomislav Milas, Dentist. Vietnam War, Miami

This guy is an absolute legend in the dental world—and he’s actually a fellow member here on the forum, too! He does top-tier work, keeps things incredibly relaxed, and unlike most dentists I've encountered, he doesn't make you feel like you're headed to a torture chamber 😬 His prices are also very reasonable. I went in today, and I'll definitely be heading back as soon as I need anything done again.

Plus, I didn't notice any of that typical "doom and gloom" vibe that usually follows dentists around 😬

He is definitely a dentist I would recommend to anyone without hesitation 🙏

Alright, folks, let's get moving!

Does anyone in the Miami or San Diego area know a good dentist? Ideally someone who takes Medicare—I’m looking for a solid recommendation and a way to get in touch. It’s a bit of an emergency.
Thanks so much!

Lindsey — just hold down Control and use your mouse wheel to scroll until the sizing feels exactly right for you! 😉

copperbear60 said:Can you believe this guy—he thinks I'm making things up! Anyway, I'm actually a bit nervous about getting the skin tightened... does that hurt? What's the best way to go about it without all the pain?

🤦

And here I was, thinking there was some serious issue when he was really just asking how much tension there was 🙄
Just take it one step at a time—you'll be fine ☕

copperbear60 said:I’ve got a situation here—though maybe I’m just overthinking it. Right now, my foreskin stays pulled back over the head. My main worry is that I won't be able to pull it back down properly, even though I've never actually tried it myself—I've just read quite a bit about it since the thought crosses my mind occasionally. I know there are guys who can't retract it at all when they have an erection because it’s just too tight for them. In my case, things are a pretty standard size—actually, if I'm being honest, maybe a little longer and thicker—and while it isn't dry, I just have this nagging fear of pulling it back. A couple of times when I’ve touched near the opening, I’ve felt some pretty sharp discomfort, so I’m worried that pulling the skin back will hurt just as much. Also, looking back to when I was a little kid, I know for a fact my parents used to clean me up and pull it back regularly until I was about three years old... so, can anyone weigh in? Is this an actual issue, or am I just dealing with some anxiety? I'm 17.

Come on, give us a bit more detail, Mark Martinez4—you haven't really explained much yet.

I'm right there with you on that one. 😉

feralpilot6 said:I’m out here digging in my own garden—which, let’s face it, I have to do if I want to keep the kids fed—but I’ve gotta admit, I’m a little thrown by your profile. What exactly is your day job? Seriously... a doctor with a shovel???

I’d describe myself as someone who finally let go of all the extra baggage—you know, the unnecessary stuff—to lighten the load and just focus on learning and discovering things. Now, I spend my time unearthing pyramids and diving deep into Indiana Jones style research.😁
Though, honestly, even the digging gets tough when that summer heat starts hitting you.😬

bluerider63 said:Mark Martinez4 is basically playing at being Semir Osmanagić Semir😁

Well, Semir is a total legend—basically a real-life Indiana Jones.😁

I’m not entirely sure what we’re diving into here—it feels like we’re just floating on the surface for now! But I’ll say this: I am more than ready to plunge in once the conversation gets moving. It’s always a little bit daunting to be the first one to jump into the deep end, isn't it? A bit like standing on the edge of a pool in the middle of a sweltering July afternoon—you know you want to get in, but there's that tiny, lingering hesitation before the splash. Anyway, I'm looking forward to seeing where everyone takes this. Let's see what kind of ripples we can make together! kaže:
I’ve always had such a deep fascination with archaeology—honestly, it was my first choice when I was applying for college—but life happens, doesn't it? By the time the exams rolled around, I found myself completely overwhelmed by the sheer amount of art history questions they threw at us. It just wasn't quite what I had envisioned for my studies. Anyway, best of luck to everyone else!👍

Honestly, you don't even need a college degree to get involved—just grab a shovel and come help out in this small town in the Midwest! 🙂
