Fuck you, this thread is mine now.
You know those times where you go out for happy hour and you have that slow, horrible realization that you're not gonna get fed?
Maybe it's because I live within walking distance to five breweries, but we have these nights where we are out with friends. Erm, her friends. Some of them are my f-- We're out with the goddamn Grundersons.
And the BAAAAAAAAAR or brewery has "appetizers." If you're lucky. The place tonight for happy hour had "caviar" and "meat and cheese plate." Because I want to relate to you people and the spammers, let's pretend I got the meat plate.
I'm eating the meat and cheese plate in front of her friends. That means I can't tip the entire thing into my mouth and consume it in one setting. Just a sec, Flack tweeted about a SD extender for the Amiga. Bought. I gotta make little goddamn sandwiches or some shit. To retain my masculinity, I eat the tea cracker, duck and cheese in one gulp. I am not sitting there HEE HEE taking bites of this.
There's a two hour limit downtown because it was "Happy Hour." That means we got two hour meter parking. We leave and I realize I didn't really have supper.
There was a boxed Caesar Salad in the fridge.
I come from a long line of pizza enthusiasts. My little suburb that I grew up in had six pizzerias for 2,000 people. I want to say thats the highest per-population in the world for GOOD pizza parlors. Places you'd actually go to. When deprived of supper, you order a pizza. Only I can't do that now because I live in Denver.
So I ate the boxed salad. Instead. God. If you call this "living."
But that's why I get this thread. I'll be updating every Sunday, and even more so when Pinback dies of a coronary. Not from being overweight, but because I stressed him out by badgering him about this fucken thread.

Re: Pinback's #YOLO Solo Fatass Challenge
Time to revive this thread.
I started jogging (or running, no idea what I'm doing really) a month ago. 11km (about 7 miles) 5 times a week. It completely and utterly SUCKED the first week and made it painfully clear to me just how out of shape I am. I needed almost two hours to finish the route.
At some point it actually became enjoyable. I run for two minutes, walk for a minute to catch my breath, run for another couple minutes, repeat. I finish in about an hour now. The ultimate goal is to be able to run the whole route pretty much non-stop, but maybe that's an unrealistic goal, not sure.
Also stopped eating bread. Completely.
Lost about 6 pounds in a month. I expected more, but I'll take it.

That's really awesome. I wish I was nicer to people 9+ years ago. :(
I managed to go for two walks today. I feel great. I really hate that exercising and 8+ hours of sleep leads to (for me) less hunger and weight loss. I hate that THAT is the thing that works, but it does work.

Re: Pinback's #YOLO Solo Fatass Challenge
Think of it this way too; there's a good chance you'll live to be old enough NOT to be able to walk 5 miles or so a day and you'll probably be wishing you could at least walk 2 miles, so you might as well do it now!
No way I could cut out bread.. but I don't eat much bread anyway.

Midnight jogging. I guess it's gonna be my new thing. Running through the park at midnight with no other assholes to bother me. I think I might have interrupted a couple teenagers fucking, but that's not gonna stop me.

I am going to assume that the weather where you are is as perfect as it is on Earth because of all of the good things I have heard about your country. And still quite nice at midnight. I am a bit jelly. A WEE bit jelly.

I wish. I'll just quote Wikipedia: "Ioannina is the wettest city in mainland Greece." It forgot to mention that it's also the foggiest. Probably.Ice Cream Jonsey wrote: Wed Jul 05, 2023 5:05 pm I am going to assume that the weather where you are is as perfect
Well, at least if I get fatter again in winter I can blame it on the weather.
