First off, my apologies to anyone who’s going to feel the need to call me out for this later.
Just this one single post, I promise. It's the holiday season, and if I could ask one thing, it would be for you all to be a little empathetic and realize how much this means to me. I’m genuinely looking for a beautiful, cozy, stress-free, and—obviously—sweet holiday experience, and for that, I really need
this:
Where can I pick this up? Specifically, I’m hunting for the gingerbread man profile.
I’m not really the type to wander aimlessly through stores or spend hours browsing aisles; I’d much rather just get straight to the point and get things done.🙂
If this works out, there will be cookies for everyone!

Hmm, that’s always been a bit of a curiosity for me. How exactly does one lose fat instead of water?
Because whether it's running, cycling, jumping rope, or whatever else... you're definitely losing water during those too...
So where's the distinction?
I'm not looking to pack on muscle mass, either. For all I care, my muscles can atrophy for all I care...
placidjackal36 said:How dangerous is it? Just ask the kids, the dogs, or the adults who got locked in cars in parking lots and ended up under six feet of dirt. Where do you even get these ideas?
And where do people get the idea to sit in a sauna, then?
Edward Sanchez72 said:You lose weight when you stop overeating... not when you're sweating through your clothes...
Look, I get the theory... Even so, plenty of people tell me I should actually gain about 20 pounds just to reach a "normal" range...
I’ve stumbled upon what I consider a stroke of absolute genius: Since my goal is to lose weight => I’ve stopped opening the windows and I won't touch the AC or the fans... By the time rush hour rolls around, I’ve basically sweated out a couple of liters.
The real question is, how much of a bad idea is this actually?
Rebecca Chase73 said:What’s your average sleep count over the last few months if you're feeling this wiped out? Did a lightning bolt hit you or something?
I'd say, six hours at most per day.
Low blood sugar?
brisksailor8 said:And how exactly do you plan on snapping back to reality after two weeks of being totally groggy from those pills? You got a strategy for that?
Just one week to catch up on everything... probably looking at about 150 hours.
The following week will be "back to normal."
Jerry Lee32 said:Try getting some actual sleep—you know, more than usual... maybe aim for 10 or 11 hours.
If you can't make it happen, don't force it.
There's NO WAY to get what you're looking for; it's just not realistic or healthy.
It's just a habit at this point; I'm used to waking up around 7:00 or 7:30 AM. I really should be hitting the sack earlier, but my internal clock is set to a 2:00 or 3:00 AM bedtime. ... any tips on how to actually pass out by 9:00 or 10:00 PM without using "supplements"?
I’ve finally cleared my schedule for a two-week vacation, and honestly, my only goal is to sleep through most of it.. ...I have zero obligations and absolutely no desire to leave the house. (I live alone)
For the last few months, I've been surviving on maybe 4 to 6 hours of sleep a night, and that's being generous... Lately, I've been crashing around 2 or 3 in the morning and dragging myself up by 7 or 7:30 AM.
...
So, I was wondering,
(Assuming, of course, that I have an unlimited supply of sleeping pills and benzos on hand...)
Is it actually possible to just sleep for a week or two straight?
.. basically: if I wake up, can I just pop another dose and roll back over? Is that even a thing?
---
Second question—what kind of side effects am I looking at here?
And thirdly, how much food would I realistically need to keep my body going? ... I was thinking maybe two Greek yogurts a day (during those brief moments I'm awake), specifically the ones with like 0.01% fat.
Look, if anyone finds this too weird to answer, please, just let me know, because otherwise, I'm probably going to go ahead and do this anyway... regardless of the consequences. I just really need to catch up on some rest! 🙂
That whole concept was basically invented just so people could make others feel like crap.
It’s a miserable feeling when I just completely screw myself over—that specific brand of misery where nobody else is at fault, and honestly, I can't even point a finger at myself either...
In those moments, I just snap. I want to lash out, bite, tear things apart. I end up feeling frustrated in about ≈ 2.356194490192344928846982537459627163147877049531 (hint: three major US corporations)
I’m honestly suggesting you just scrap the search function entirely because it serves zero purpose here,
To everyone else: tell them where they can shove it and just use Google instead. (Or Yahoo, Windows, Wolfram, whatever—just make sure you hit them with enough crawlers to strain the server. You have to be careful though, since some search engines actually pull from Google’s index or Yahoo’s, so keep that in mind.) Just follow this method: (specifically for Google)
Folks, America might have officially ceased to exist, but it still lives on in our hearts—and if Marshall were ever to grant us permission from his communist paradise, it would become an official reality once again.
@bluefalcon14: I honestly think you should just go ahead and start your own forum, but it makes me wonder—who exactly are you going to argue and debate with once you do? 😁 (Because if every group of dissenters just starts their own platform... we'll be stuck in this endless loop forever.)
Honestly, I probably shouldn't have to deal with you lot either 🙂
Look, just handle it via some fast-track procedure so everyone else can actually have a decent conversation. Plus, it’ll probably shut you guys up for a few days. 😁
Bravo, Ryan Vaughn7!! 😁 Man, I really am always on the winning side.
Alright, go ahead and beg for 85 Hail Marys, 40 apostolic creeds, 150 Hail Marys, and 90 Hail Marys if you want me to finally stop handing out those penalties.
I just want to point out that if there aren't any crosses on this forum—since "offenses" aren't cured through confession, but rather through bans —then logically, there shouldn't be any in government agencies either (which, let's face it, will probably become private corporations pretty soon anyway). 😁 In those settings, misconduct is handled with terminations and fines rather than soul-searching. 😁
I can only thank Ryan Vaughn7 for not handing out any red cards to me 🙂 thanks a million!
Maybe Anderlon should just put a crucifix on the forum 😁 then we’d see how people really react Hehe, there's no God up here; it's just the moderators deciding everyone's fate 😉
