Topic	Andy Now Does Yet More Andy Nouns [ANDYMAN] Vol. 1: Self-deprecating, contained!
KujikawaRising 10/09/18 2:37:14 PM #154:	`Weight Loss:` Yesterday's step total was absolutely ridiculous - and that was by choice. I WANTED to get something mindblowing, in part because I started craving pizza and I can't have any on a fasting day. So I went ahead and got 20,100 steps total, thus allowing me to break my fast for dinner ^_^ Still had a smoothie in addition to one slice of pizza and a little snacking. I didn't want to overdo it. The intent of this incentive is to not overeat - I have to eat at home if I get 20K or walk all the way there (when I move, the conditions will the unchanged, however I'll need at least 16K total steps if I go with the "walk home" method). End result is that my weight is down from a day before. I need to control my stomach size and I will do that via portion control. Even though I'm going out for Pad Thai with my sister and her husband tonight. `Gaming:` Just 15 minutes of Xillia last night. I am going to give the Coliseum a second try. With the high-level armor and ridiculous kill count I have on Leia's Devil's Arm - never mind being level 47 - I should be able to take Beginner Single with ease. First time didn't go well because the game immobilized me. Largely due to the stupid "don't fall off the ledge" rule. `Australian Survivor 2017:` Another episode last night, the last before the merge. Still a incredible season even in its lesser episodes. Glad Odette left. She seems like a smart and amicable woman, but... she does not have a toolset to be adaptable in Survivor. She is a floater to the highest degree and only sought to vote with majority every time and baa like a sheep. She did not try to be adept socially. Her strategy was terrible TV and poor gameplay. She is no Queen Sandra in that regard - the Queen used "as long as it ain't me" to wondrous effects because of her ability to socially navigate the game. Sandra adjusted based on happenstance while controlling the flow of the game to only the extent she needed to, thus avoiding the target for the long haul. Odette meanwhile just went with the flow, always being a free agent with no control. Thus, she was a sheep who was fed to the wolves when she was no longer needed. Therefore, she's one of the duds this season alongside first boot Joan and whoever that Kate lady was. They could've cast any female powerhouse equivalent to Ziggy in that spot, really. This episode was pretty straightforward, with its best part being the epic showdown in the immunity challenge. One thing my dad and I noted here was the level of sportsmanship that this Aussie cast exhibited. There were hugs and respect after the challenge, even Henry! Odette took her blindside in stride instead of being like "WHAT THE EFF?" in bitter fashion like some US contestants can be. I'd think Aussies would only be like that if it's a brutal blindside that they had absolutely no idea was coming - that's the only time it's forgivable, and only short-term. Human nature and whatnot. But overall, the Aussie casts seem to have better sportsmanship and that's probably due to a more amicable culture than the openly hostile one we have here. `Song of the Day:` Because I am really into this local group. Sunspot - The Only Faith https://sunspot.bandcamp.com/track/the-only-faith You guys should check them out. Good rock music that's made by geeks for geeks (they're all about 40 y/o). A lot of paranormal, Medieval, and sci-fi stuff (they recorded a tribute to Scott Bakula, whose agent paid them to play it at Bakula's 50th birthday on the USS Enterprise). --- https://imgur.com/t3naEGu I'm BlueCrystalTear, probably at work. <cite>KujikawaRising posted [p:910237824] in Andy Now D...
