@T3hPwnisher @Brant_Drake As I am in that current situation and I am a lady, I can say that in my opinion, I find it FAR more infuriating it hear “oh man, it doesn’t matter how much I eat I just can’t put on weight”. Meanwhile I’m over here weighing lettuce…
Also fair to say him losing faster than me is irritating.
My husband told me once that he could tell I lost weight because he didn’t roll towards my side of the bed anymore. He’s still alive and no limp in sight. You would be surprised what you can get away with…
Me, my brother in law, and sister in law had an episode of “I hate you both” last thanksgiving based on this.
I mentioned that I quit using sugar in my coffee and lost like 13 lbs. over a year. My sis in law blew her top in a friendly manner, and hollered over to her husband- “How much did you lose when you quit putting milk in your coffee?”. He responds “about 10-12 lbs.”.
And the hilarity ensued.
I asked her. She laughed and said definitely losing weight faster.
Then followed it up with “The only reason you ever have to lose weight is when you get fat because you’re lazy and don’t do cardio.”
Now we have 1 vote for trying to gain weight and 1 for losing weight faster: the jury is still out!
Throw another wrench into it: if you wanna have some fun social experiences, reduce your daily meals from 3 down to 2, but keep the total volume of food the same. This will make your 2 meals FEASTS, and if they happen to be the meals you eat around other people, it’s going to create an interesting illusion that you eat a TON of food and still don’t gain weight. When you eat breakfast and dinner with your family and fast through lunch, it can further the irritation experiment.
Ive learned that recently myself.
Yours is fine … I dont like them that big anyway.
I once had someone mid adult time say “Hold on! Stay right here!” Then come back with a home depot tape measure.
I passed the test, but in hindsight that was terrifying.
Glad we have a thread for random…
So I got my wife one of these thick-knit things as a gift a while back. She is a self-described “freezy cat,” while I haven’t slept under anything in years, unless it’s a sleeping bag when I’m in the woods.
Last night everyone was tired, and I was still amped up from work, so I slept in the guest bedroom downstairs and found this.
It’s amazing. I had one of my best nights sleep in a long time. I wasn’t hot or cold, didn’t feel sweaty or stifled - I love this thing now. It’s still a little fluffy, but not suffocating. 11 out of 10.
If it looks stupid but works, it ain’t stupid.
Thats an excellent discovery. Ive always been a blast furnace, and the only thing I use a blanket for is modesty.
I need something like that.
I’m the same, always running 40 degrees higher than my wife, but this blanket has vents! Instead of being trapped in a cocoon or free balling it, I’m legitimately ready to go to sleep.
I’m the furnace in my bed. I start out like an ice cube and turn into a raging fire about 30 minutes in. Cooling sheets are my gift from the heavens.
If you can turn a woman into putty by complimenting her spreadsheet acumen, you are a smoother guy than I am.
More Americans have been married to Kim Kardashian than have died from Ebola.
Which is worse?
Solid question. Obvious answer.
