| Topic | so many good tv shows are ending this year |
| bigblu89 04/14/23 2:54:15 PM #17 | TaylorHeinicke posted... Good news is, there's no point to keeping HBO after those two end since that stupid merger is going to make it so easy to cancel. Maybe do a free trial and binge house of the dragon season 2 next year, but without elite TV like the ones you mentioned, it's a pretty easy cut. Yup. If this is truly Curb's last season, canceling HBO after it's over is a no brainer for me. At least until Last of Us season 2. --- It takes zero effort to be a good person. |

| bigblu89 04/14/23 2:52:49 PM #15 | Iamdepressed posted... Is it comedy or comedy film noir? "I'm dying up here" is also a very good comedy series. It's really dark though. I'm Dying Up Here getting canceled broke my heart. There's very few TV shows over the last 7-8 years that I REALLY liked, and that was one of them. --- It takes zero effort to be a good person. |

| bigblu89 04/14/23 2:35:27 PM #14 | --Zero- posted... Its a check list for most men so Id set my standards pretty low to accomplish it. Married now and the wife wont go for it though.Yup. Basically this. I was propositioned ONCE for a threesome by a drunk coworker at an after work event. I was with my wife at the time, but not yet married, and she drunkenly told me that she'd have a threesome with me and another woman, but not with my wife, because that would make it awkward. When I saw her the following Monday she acted like that conversation never happened. I'm still now 100% sure what she meant by it being awkward. --- It takes zero effort to be a good person. |

| Topic | Started walking a few miles at night. Feels good man. |
| bigblu89 04/14/23 10:47:45 AM #5 | I don't want to call it "easy" but you'd be surprised how simple (in theory, but not execution) just the slightest bit of exercise and eating right can get you on a healthy path. And not even anything crazy like 2 hours of cardio every day. This is going back almost 15 years now, but I was up over 300 pounds back when my son was born. One of those situations where my wife got pregnant, but I got all the cravings and overeating habits. Once he was born, I just dedicated myself to better eating habits along with walks on the treadmill 5 times a week. It's a slow process, but it works. Set the treadmill to around 3.5 speed, which is just around brisk walk, and set the incline to 10-12ish, where ever you're comfortable. 30-35 minutes at a time, 5 times a week. That's really it. I'm around a solid 220ish now. Firmly in "dad bod" zone, but at 45 years old, and the schedule I have, that's probably as good as it's going to get.

| bigblu89 04/14/23 10:03:19 AM #28 | Quicksilver posted... Not much we can do besides give them a free apartment and forget about them. So many homeless people are just total burn outs years of drug and alcohol abuse has left them unable to function in society so no matter what they will always exist on the fringes of society. People don't like to hear it but sometimes you just can't help a person no matter what you do. You're half right.

So how do those real lambo owners deal with this problem irl? I guess I should clarify. I wouldn't want to drive one "the way a lambo should be driven" becasue of how bad/uneven the roads are in the Long Island/NYC area.

If you a big Smiths/Morrisey fan, give The Housemartins a listen, or The Growlers. I suggest those with a caveat.

You don't think it's "As good as it used to be" because you have no sentimental attachment to the music that is being released today. It's been written about hundreds of times. The music of our youth makes us think of our youth. You attach the music to a simpler time. You have no fondness to today's music, even if it's in a similar genre to what you used to listen to, because as you get older you don't relate it to life events like you did when you were younger. So you don't even bother to seek out anything new, because you rather the comfort of your "youth music" and how it makes you feel. --- It takes zero effort to be a good person. |
