discostu you're obviously uncomfortable showering in that place, so why force it?
i don't really see the achievement in causing yourself discomfort and shopping online for a custom hanger to fit that exact inconsiderate tool-designed shower room.
didn't you say you lived close to the gym?
also, do you lift, bro? are you ripped as fuck?

I could try those things. I would still feel self-conscious with the towel (don't even want people to see my bare torso), but not as badly as having them see below the belt. Maybe I could tie it toga-style.

I used to live close to my gym, but now I've moved, so I'm no longer within walking distance of any of the locations. And I don't wanna be the smelly guy on the bus.

I lift, but I'm not consistent enough and my diet sucks, so I'm still skinnyfat.

I went a week of successfully eating under my maintenance last week (a week isn't much, but for me it is, because I usually crack after a couple days and then don't get back on the wagon for a long time), but this week, I'm back to eating like a slob. I think now, instead of making my goal never to fall off, I'm focusing on getting back on as quickly as possible instead of doing that thing where I go, "eh, I fucked this week up anyway, may as well eat whatever I want and try again next week."

Cool As Ice Cream · 07-13-2016, 03:32 PM

let's see your penis

also how smelly can you get during one gym session? there's sweaty and there's smelly. just get on that bus already.

teh b0lly!!1 · 07-13-2016, 03:51 PM

this story brings me back to my flight home from shanghai, in which i had the fortune of sitting next to a married chinese couple who possessed one of the world's most foul breaths. every time the dude coughed or sighed audibly (meaning he probably needed to open his stink hole) i felt a wave of death stench, fully capable of making flowers wilt and children lose faith in santa, wash over me like rape.

and if that's not enough, the woman had some tick or something and literally every 10-15 seconds she made this disgusting phlegm working up sound like she was going to spit out a mean one, but never did. i gave her the nastiest, most loathsome looks i'm capable of producing. it didn't help. i even heard her through my headphones with music on.

you're not that guy, disc-o. chill. eat a baked fish. forget your troubles and your strife. xoxo

since moving into our new place on the 8th (!!!) i don't have a nearby gym and i'm already atrophying. i need to get a bike and find a new Y or buy one a home workout gym for the basement.

this set looks niice, but it's 300, but that's super cheap for a workout bench and the 310 lb worth of weights it comes with. but i can't afford that right now for something that isn't a necessity. ;_;

why u so poor?
whats ur problem?

yo soy el mejor · 05:22 PM

i was stupid and bought a $270 (originally 700. on sale for 299 and i got a discount. ow!) dining table the day we moved. there's goes my workout bench.

actually, that's not stupid because the table is huge and bad-ass and will serve many functions.

I just moved too, over the course of one hellish exhausting week in very hot weather and while also trying (basically pretending) to work full time.

I am still so sore I won't be able to work out for at last another week. How do u do it? Did u use movers, then? That's why u don't have any $$$ left?

Aw maaaaaaaaan that's so foul!! At least she didn't loog em into a kerchief or somethin

All the Chinese I encountered while over there hawked/spat relentlessly, some even felt the need to do it into napkins while in places of public accommodation. Many an otherwise glorious meal was ruined as my stomach churned to every honking, gurgling blast of that ceaseless nasal suckage

teh b0lly!!1 · 07-13-2016, 05:53 PM

yeah they are infamous for it

it's not even the worst. sometimes they'll just walk down the street, stop suddenly, pop their finger in one nostril and blow really hard on the other one. you can only imagine the horrors that come out. it makes me sick just to think about it.

nah, we did all the work ourselves over the course of 15 hours or so. i sweated through my shirt several times throughout the day and didn't get to sleep until 5 a.m. i had the work the next day and the next day and the next day but was so desperate to sleep in a little and relax. i was finally able to today.

we did rent a truck, though, and used it to do lots of shopping, too.

cork_soaker · 07-13-2016, 06:45 PM

been working on my abs

they look amazing right now

yo soy el mejor · 07-13-2016, 07:00 PM

how many abs you got now?

cork_soaker · 07-13-2016, 07:04 PM

so many!

they now reach my adam's apple

slunken · 07-13-2016, 08:12 PM

I have the top row of a six pack. Still working on the bottom two. Looks weird.

How you workin' 'em?

cork_soaker · 07-13-2016, 08:26 PM

planks and lots o' running

cork_soaker · 07-13-2016, 08:28 PM

and eating well, but that's not really ab-centric

but neither are running or planking, i suppose

cork_soaker · 07-13-2016, 08:30 PM

personally speaking, im saying

yo soy el mejor · 07-13-2016, 08:31 PM

planking is totes ab-centric. i used to do flutterkicks while watching television; i was a very sinewy child.

Cool As Ice Cream · 07-14-2016, 08:50 AM

Choose the picture on the right (a b c d) which logically follows the line of pictures on the left.

-------------------------a------b------c------d
http://i66.tinypic.com/5yxcpc.gif http://i63.tinypic.com/js1ti1.gif

Why is b (the triangles) the correct answer here?

teh b0lly!!1 · 07-14-2016, 10:25 AM

i also would have went for b

yo soy el mejor · 07-14-2016, 10:35 AM

ya, i mean...it's the only guy that hasn't had a chance to go yet.

Cool As Ice Cream · 07-15-2016, 02:58 AM

that's not enough though.

for all the similar questions, there's a logical step from 1 to 2 and from 2 to 3. then the same logical step can be used to decide what 4 should be.

i just don't see what step/explanation can be used to go \\\ ooo +++ AAA. (for the other questions, it's always clear.)
i guess it's the ooo that's throwing me off. \\\ +++ AAA could make sense to me, for example (1, 2, 3).

teh b0lly!!1 · 07-15-2016, 03:02 AM

but you said B was the right answer?

Cool As Ice Cream · 07-15-2016, 03:14 AM

yes, it is.
i just don't understand what the logic behind it is.

how do you go from \\\ to ooo to +++ to b? (instead of typing three triangles, i went for AAA.)

teh b0lly!!1 · 07-15-2016, 03:20 AM

but that's not the next logical step - it's maybe the next visual step.

imo, the reasoning behind that sequencing is that there is no reasoning. the slanted lines (with or without those little "weights" on them) are, for all intents and purposes, completely different tokens. so the only way of maintaining "balance" and not closing out any one series, B is the way to go.

(meaning that if you pick A or D, you're providing a companion to /// or +++, and disrupt the balance, while B still didn't get any time in the sun)

Cool As Ice Cream · 07-15-2016, 03:33 AM

but those are explanations you're finding afterwards.

check this out: http://home.earthlink.net/~jimmyjones/iq.html
questions 16-25.

all of the other ones are easy. and you could basically give the answer without looking at the four multiple choice options. which makes sense: you determine the step from looking at the first three pictures, and then decide what the 4th one should look like.

it isn't about "oh, we haven't had any triangles yet, so it must be that". what if there were other options there like three hearts or one huge hexagon? would you still choose the three triangles?

i mean, maybe i'm wrong, but shouldn't the same be possible for the question i posted?
maybe we need a completely different way of looking at it, to explain it?
