I bought a park and ride pass this semester to save money on my school's exhorbitant parking fees and I made the mistake of wearing jeans. It's not that far, not even a mile, but I am sweating my ass off and these jeans are soaking. All from sweat. Which is gross.

I'm wearing workout clothes here next time and I'll change in the bathroom.

That's fucking gross. Also in the wrong thread. That's a giant fail.

[Aksannyi]

Soaking is a bit of an exaggeration but I am sweating quite a bit.

Was in Amsterdam yesterday. There are a lot of bikes there, and it blew my mind that almost none of them have hand brakes - they have to pedal backwards to brake.

I'd never seen that.

Are you still in Amsterdam? Last time I was there I wanted shit from the Chimera Fantasy Shop but they were of course closed for holiday the one day I was there. And they only deliver to amsterdam

Took the bible from my hotel room and tossed it across the room and replaced it with a prepackaged Belgium waffle at my bedside. Things like this make me sleep with a smile.

If you have a bad back, bad knees, documented thyroid issue, etc.

Recommendations on fitness if you have all three of those issues?

Yeah my dad was here a few weeks ago and he kept commenting on my weight like I can't fucking see it with my own eyes. I am doing the best I can with what I have - my knees are in really bad shape and I'm mildly asthmatic. I just got really annoyed with him for saying that. I mean seriously, if it's a physical trait that I can't fix in less than 10 minutes, why bring it up except to make me feel like shit?

Your dad is a jerk, and I now understand your man-hate.

I don't hate men. I really wish people would understand that about me, if there was one thing I need people to understand, it's that I do not hate men.

My dad however, lacks in tact. I've gotten used to it over the years but yeah it still stings.

Hmm, I wonder why people would ever think you hate men.
We should examine this!

This is correct. I'm down for a BG Fitness comp.

Perfect timing after I've lost 60 lbs, I had no desire to keep the before pics so I likely won't do it. Is it weird that I fat shame myself to stay on track? Not in an eating disorder way, but when I go shopping and I pick something not good for me I'll have an inner dialogue about how it'd make me a fatty again.

Decided to get my MMJ card, because fuck it I'm an adult, and I shouldn't be worried of the reaction my parents may have over a trivial thing like that.

Yeah, that's pretty standard for me.

Snapped my back up this morning but forced myself to class cuz there is a qt in my group. I am pretty sure I crippled myself but i got dem digits.

Calorie deficit and anything you can manage to get your heart rate up.

[Spicyryan]

In Germany with a couple of Chinese vendors of ours. Crossing the street and a car is coming. They dive out if the way.

Had to explain this is not China and the nice Mercedes is not going to hit us.

Alternatively it would give me no greater pleasure then to mow down people who dont cross at a crossing.

Also, drivers who stop for school busses on the opposite side of a 4 lane road.

Also, drivers who make a turn on to a 4 lane road in the lane furthest from their turn.

Um ... unless there's a divider in the middle, it's the law to stop on both sides of the street. At least it is here.

[SephYuyX]

Not here.

It is across the US.

I had a guy actually honking at me because I stopped for a bus with it's signs out in the parking lane when I was in the left hand lane.

Ie. || Me - Other Driver - Bus |Curb

EDIT: Really? I was fairly certain the NHWA standardized these sorts of things across the US.
