Just because you do not get any benefit from watching athletes excel does not mean it is devoid of substance. I find it inspiring to watch someone do something that they have spent years working to achieve. Seeing them do the “impossible” through hard work and dedication is a great moment.

I was taught “junk” around 10 years ago. Shit, that makes me feel old.

Is working with GitLab as nice as it sounds? Every time I read the employee documentation I get the feeling working there would be a great experience.

Or fastenal, they have saved me a few times with odd requirements. Between McMaster, Fastenal, or even Grainger you should be able to find plenty of whatever you need.

I recommend it fully! I learned to play at 32 and I am having a blast. Still some risk, but my local league is very laid back and we run very safe games. Being kitted out in protective gear really does make a difference in preventing injuries.

Check and see if your local rink has an intro to hockey class and use that to get a feel for hockey.

Of all the hockey injuries, this one rates pretty low for adult beer league if you just wear a cage. Wearing a full face cage reduces the risk of losing teeth to almost 0% chance of happening.

Hockey does have risks of course, but playing in a non checking league takes the risk down to manageable levels in my opinion.

Kitchen rat from 16-27 years old, worked shitty dives to fine dining. Realized working kitchens is not healthy or profitable long term so I made my hobby (tech) my career. Overall it was a great decision, but I still deeply miss the kitchen. If I could have a sense of normalcy and decent pay I would strongly consider going back to the line.

The posters point was that crossovers are not true SUV’s, they are built on a sedan frame not a truck frame. It is pretty great when compared to the 20mpg average of a Tacoma truck.

Hybrids are great, but it is sidestepping the point that the poster was trying to make.

You can’t decide to be taller and start growing.

You can decide what you put in to your body. It just takes work and discipline.

You just demonstrated exactly what the comment was trying to express. Perfection.

To be clear here, you were the one who broke the norms of the restaurant. If you had waited to be seated 99% chance of them treating you like you expect to be. As someone who worked in restaurants for years, you would not believe what front of house staff has to deal with from the general public. I find no fault with how they responded.

That has nothing to do with what I said.

We already do eat grass. Corn, barley, wheat, oats, etc…

I just want a small truck. I don’t need to haul frequently, but I do enough renovation work and landscaping that a truck bed is a huge quality of life upgrade. Some of us just want a decent, simple beater work truck.

That was a great episode. They do a great job crafting stories around the featured creature. And now I have “creature report” playing in my head.
