And his eyes have all the seeming of a demons that is dreaming,
And the lamp-light oer him streaming throws his shadow on the floor;
And my soul from out that shadow that lies floating on the floor
Shall be liftednevermore!

nobody thinks 'my' in title was supposed to be 'me'?

I'll let you off with a warning this time

if he can time travel, why he in a rush?
and it would be in our best interest to give me some stock market tips so I come out way richer in the exchange
if he's not doing that, he's not me and he isn't getting a dime

I've given up hope of winning
I'm a born loser

but funny faces omg

isn't it sobering to think of how much you've matured since then?

I just know that today is the day I win!

I'm hitting TC with my car while I make this post because I'm not paying attention to the road

I think I must have lost like 49/50 DS3 duels. Jobbing harder than Pinwheel. But boy did that 1 win feel good.

How do I make better burgers?

You don't. You patronize local restaurants, giving your money to, say, me.

66k is good for being a dishwasher/line cook

Thanks bro, on that 50-55 hour a week grind.

If you live in a low cost of living area the 2023 and this year would be pretty decent years. However if you live in an expensive cost of living area it would be a different story. It really boils down to where you live.

Where Im at in the Midwest you would be living comfortably on your 2023 and 2024 salary.

I live well enough on around $30k-$35k in today's dollars.

pre-tax

2016: $7,515.04
2017: $25,322.07
2018: $30,865.37
2019: $35,634.06
2020: $15,202.56 (not including unemployment, it's too complicated)
2021: $33,937.05
2022: $42,190.33
2023: ~$57,385
2024: ~$12,819 (on pace for around $66k)

Is that what it means? I always interpreted it as a death threat.

I warned you.

That might be 2nd or 3rd worst pickup line I've ever heard. It's definitely in the top ten.

Haven't you ever tried putting 'no hookups' in an online dating bio? The women will flock to you like moths to a flame.

I just wanna fall madly in love

we had a dishwasher back when I first started working in a restaurant who would just pull off the uneaten food from customers' plates and shove it all together into a box for later
he was a raging alcoholic, I think he's dead now

this topic is an example of what we call a double entendre, because "escort" has another meaning that is often considered more salacious than the pictured car, to which the word could also apply

I remember on a rainy morning in April of 1982, I had skipped school and was bored, so I decided to look up some Dark Souls NPC to find out about the questline. I found this new site in beta called videogamefrequentlyaskedquestions (it would later be shortened to gamefaqs), and lo and behold they had the answer I was looking for. And that, as they say, is that.

$347

It got weirdly red and hot like 30 min after I did it last night. It hurts less today and doesn't look as weird, but there's still swelling.

I hope it's not broken.

Good luck!

do you like strawerberries?

Working in a restaurant, it's absurd how much sexual harassment I've heard about or seen directly. But it reached a new low yesterday. It's so weird how many guys try to slip things (tips, checks, etc.) into waitresses' aprons, but today we had a guy reach full in. Literally sexual battery, and they said this guy is a reverend. She was so angry she was shaking.

I've written my story in blood upon the bones of my enemies.

No. I'm a very fighting-averse individual.

He said that he was drinking people's leftover milkshakes while working at a restaurant. Sounds like trolling, so IDK if this is serious.

smh the milkshakes are made in a steel cup, then transferred to another cup for the customer
the waitresses give me what remains in the steel cup in either an attempt to sabotage my diet, a suggestion that I need to gain weight, or an attempted act of kindness
when somebody hands me some milkshake, it's difficult to throw it out

I've ranged from 125-155 since high school. Looked pretty bad at both extremes tbh, though I was much healthier at 125. I was biking everywhere, and could go all day. Looked pretty scrawny though, not really trying to get back to that.

LeoRavus posted...

I'm 2" taller 155 lbs and need to gain weight. TC may be anorexic if trying to lose more.

It's not that I'm trying to lose weight necessarily, it's that I'm trying to recomp to something that looks a little better. And eat healthier in general. Eating 2300 calories per day doesn't really Smack of anorexia, I wouldn't think.

ProfOaksAide posted...

You may actually need to up your calories if youre loosing weight at 59 138. And I would recommend doing so through whole food carbs seeing as how you enjoy cardio so much. You must be depleting a lot of glycogen which is only restored through carbs. If youre already lean and still losing weight it could be muscle wasting. So also try incorporating resistance training. Dont exercise on a caloric deficit and dont cut carbs if you exercise a lot. Youll be miserable before long

Yeah, I'm not looking to cut calories really. Just looking to cut down on sugar and increase protein. I'll keep it up with the carbs for now, I suppose.

How far are you running each week on the treadmill?

Varies depending on workload/motivation. I'm ranging from 50-72 hours a week at work (which pumps up my steps because I have to do a lot of walking), but I always do a 5-13 mile run on my day off or the slowest day if I don't have one. Over the past couple weeks in addition to the 11ish miles on off days I'm down to around 5-10 more here and there. My feet kinda hurt too much now to do as many as I used to.

Also, can that other dude stop trying to make "Slug Virus" a thing? It's not a thing.

How tall are you? 138 seems a little low for an adult male

5'9. I'm a (treadmill) distance runner, sometimes bike to work, do weighted chin-ups when I have any time off from work, and average around 10.5k steps a day, so I imagine I burn more calories than the average person. In truth I don't look too bad, but I've always had body image issues and felt I kinda trend toward what some would refer to as skinnyfat. After years of wondering about it, I decided to see what effects changing my diet would have. Now that I've found my baseline, time to practice some discipline.

NeonOPPAl posted...

Definitely need to cut back on that daily sugar and carbs >_> But otherwise keep pushing forward. You can do it!

Yeah, cutting back really shouldn't be that tough. The sugar, carbs, and fat are largely a result of all the ice cream I eat. Just stop that, and I'm good there. The trouble is I work in a diner where they serve lots of milkshakes, and there's often a little left in the mixing cups. What's a man to do, let them throw it away? I must be a stronger man, and dump it down the drain myself instead. The protein isn't that much more difficult, I have not one but three containers of protein powder at home. And yet for some reason I rarely use it. Simply replace the milkshakes with the protein shakes, and I've taken a huge step toward my goal.

I'm still not eating very well, but working on it. Feel like I'm already beginning to see some changes in my physique, though very subtle ones. I wanna be thin but ripped. Averaging around 2300 calories a day. 98g sugar, 82g protein, 267g carbs, and 99g fat. Seem to have lost a couple pounds (140 to 138ish), but I need to commit to pushing that sugar down and eating more protein. Struggling with the protein in particular, may have to start busting out the protein shakes.

Is that a typo?

No. I inherited like $240k from my grandparents and decided I might as well invest it in the stock market. Now my goal is to make that <50% of my principal, so I can feel like it's something I've built as much as something I've been handed.

How much do you guys contribute to your 401k every month?

Don't have a 401k, only a Roth and brokerage account. In an abbreviated 2021 (I began investing in June), I contributed $37,021 per month. In 2022 I contributed $3,357/month, $2,104/month in 2023, and $9,524/month through the first two months of 2024.
