  1. I like marlo's quote from his first scene better, "Do it or don't. I've got places to be."
  2. so that shit was real and not bait? holy shit, what a time to be alive
  3. Congrats, keep it up. Doing the work is tough but damn, it feels good fitting into the clothes you want to fit into. I'm about to hit my target weight, and while I don't have the flat abs/8pack/"Seriously, It's like you're photoshopped?!" I thought I'd have at this weight, I'm happy with the work I put in. Now I'm going to work on slowly NOT cutting calories and trying to maintain the level i'm at. Using those apps to track what i eat and over the next couple weeks going to increase it from lose 2 lbs to maintain over the next 2-3 weeks. I feel like a smoker who says "i'm great at quitting, i've done it a thousand times!" I can lose the weight and have a number of times (although not to the level I'm at now) but never really been good at maintaining. My goal now is to maintain this level of eating (not dieting) and exercise through the rest of summer as practice for football season when Saturdays wreck my shit. Then correct what ever needs correcting next Feb, as soon as Super Bowl Sunday is over.
  4. This thread moved fast while I was busy and caught up on others before this one, so responding to this b/c it was the last thing i read on here way back... Monday. Jesus, Covid fucks with time. Anyway, the chick who threw it at an occupied car is definitely guilty of attempted murder but thats not the chick. My buddy's ex is Urooj. Supposedly the last girl he seriously dated before going on a Tinder tear these last few years. Pretty sure it was his college sweet heart. It'll be a minute before I go through pages 55-94, so not gonna be able to respond immediately if there is other stuff after.
  5. No, but i can understand people in the last 48 hours thinking he was a racist and acting accordingly. Honestly I don’t agree with them but I haven’t read Zinn in decades so my memory is fuzzy.
  6. Aren’t there like a shit ton of quotes showing Lincoln as a racist but only doing emancipation as a hindrance to the south? Or is that too much People’s History and incorrect?
  7. Fuck them. I know people who dated her. Fuck the police. All bad cops need to be tried, judged, and sentenced as traitors to the constitution.
  8. Bad cops need to die. Good cops need to do their job edit: I support good cops any day of the week
  9. cross posting from the DT thread, took the antibody and CoVid tests on 5/24 in the morning, got the results yesterday. Negative on both. Sucks. They took a whole vial and the gf's father's test from a few weeks ago was also a vial and not just a finger prick.
  10. 1) probably the same thing. Almost all nyc parks are off leash before 9am and only w/in an hour of sunset (wish austin would do this) but even in Central and Prospect parks there are clearly marked off areas that say dogs are never allowed off leash in there. People aren't even all that welcome in those same parts where there is thick brush, etc cause the birds nest there or whatnot. The parks are definitely big enough that dog owners should leave those areas alone or leash up while they traverse said areas on the way to other parts of the park. I'm an asshole and love my pup but no reason to put out bad karma in the world whenever I happen to be in those clearly delineated sections.
  11. Agreed, the guy sucks, and hopefully removed soon. What’s next?
  12. That I don't know, will find out. (in regards to full draw or finger prick) edit: could be a false positive on the CoVid but the antibody test said he had short term antibodies but i guess that also could have been lingering from April. As for allergies...eh, don't think so but I'll check. Catching up on rest of thread now.
  13. They wouldn't give him a test back then. But he had fever, loss of smell and taste, cough, and diarrhea (and I think I'm missing some of the other symptoms he had) from 3/30 to 4/12. As for now, he says he feels fine outside of once again losing the sense of smell. So there is the outside chance he never had it back in early April but.... despite not staying at holiday inn last night, i doubt it. Sure, the CoVid test now could be wrong but the reason he finally was able to take it was because the abx test he took last week told him he had long term and short term abx (in my mind proving he had it back in early april but i'm willing to hear theories). So either the CoVID test from this last week might be wrong, or he is contagious again. Since we know fuck all about this disease, I'm not sure which is a more reasonable conclusion. I sure as hell hope he isn't contagious but we have two current tests pointing in that direction.
  14. anecdotal, but the CoVid test results came back for the gf's father; positive and told to quarantine since he is contagious once again after being sick from 3/30 to 4/12. This is one bitch disease.
  15. You do the 20 pushup/flutter ladder everyday? I can barely do 14 ladder and aside from being hard, not sure my shoulders will every be able handle 210 pushups a day. As it is, i do it regular style twice a week, and "girlie" style 3 days a week with a max out day on Saturdays. I mean, props to you, I'm just skittish about ripping some muscle/tendon right now and having to spend extensive amounts of time in any ER/clinic/hospital. On the other hand, figured the 'rona is the best time to be serious about weight loss. Was already doing ok and now that i'm doing the 22 day athlean ab challenge (day 9 today) i'm down 13 lbs since March 13, and only 7 away from my target weight. Good luck to everyone.
  16. twenties? sounds poor
  17. yup, that fits with my gf's father situation. this shit is wierd. i'm very much a pro-active measures to stay home, and mask in public, etc but if this virus is just happens to hit us at the right spot and we have few options to get through us...well then let it and protect the vulnerable until we get a vaccine
  18. great flick
  19. the sooner the cunt wagons around 1500 PA are filled, the better the country is
  20. So if your gf/bf/wife/husband spent 2 hours plus with a contagious person in a car/enclosed space for whatever the fuck reason, you're saying your response would be, "Honey, don't forget to kiss the kids goodnight and hug them extra hard before bed since we'll be road tripping all day to go see grandma and grandpa, don't worry about the masks, we don't need them!! Can't wait!" Right?
  21. So the Gf's (no pics) father first had symptoms on 3/30, with all the telltale signs of loss of smell/taste, fever, cough, etc. His last symptom was on 4/12, he got the antibody/abx (is antibodies abbreviated to abx?) test done on 5/6, and at some point before 5/13 they got the results that he had short term and long term abx which the doc said meant that he might still be infectious. So the Doctor ordered a CoVid test and that was done on 5/12, but the results won't be back for 5-7 days. Normally I wouldn't care since the Gf and her sister live together near me and away from their folks but the Gf and said sister went to have lunch with their father and another relative, who is still working their daily route for USPS, on 5/10; he picked them up for an hour or so trip out to the restaurant, hour or so back, windows up with AC on. I have been busy since the wknd so my response on 5/13 was, "Peace! See you on 5/24 if you aren't sick." But my question is, how the hell can he still be infectious over a month after being symptom free? Was the abx test just fucked up? Guess we'll know more in 5-7 days, which is also fucking terrible that it takes that long but at least its better than 2 weeks or no test at all, which is what they told him back in March.
  22. Texas science and data
  23. Can they make fat legos? There has to be a jabba the hut lego, right? Because they should make one for old fat ass dotard, at least if they want it to be accurate.
  24. we were surprised but since day one people have been flooding the parks, open air gyms, running tracks, and I've even see a fair amount of street drinking in front of bars although the latter has been only in the last 3 or 4 days. Everyone I know has more or less stuck to the @StruggleBus list of places but even in late march and early april I saw small clusters of people outside individual homes while I was out walking the dog. Figured they were all related or lived together but who knows. I've missed the PCs since Thursday so maybe he had a point but I know my friends and I were also wondering how the hell more people kept getting infected. Did he ever say how?
