Flame Free Confession III: Even More Flame Free (Part 1)

To each their own then. I have gotten some good stuff off of YouTube. There certainly is a lot of BS too.

I don’t think I have missed out, haha.

In the same way you wouldn’t be missing out on almost all passive entertainment, then yes.

Yup. Knowledge too. Only so many ways to get jacked, haha.

Just meet in between and get a free ad blocker lol. FWIW I don’t watch any of their videos either but that’s only because I’m not interested in their content. I’m too busy re-watching WAP anyway.

Yup. What else is there to say about lifting?

Errr… dubstep background music and heavily color filtered post production videos?

Are you like Dorian Gray, but instead of a portrait it’s your dogs that get old and have heart problems while you stay young forever?

I love the fat on a ribeye, but yeah - when there’s a giant grisly part, or several, I give them to the dog, plus my wife trims the fat off of hers. There’s usually enough for a little snack for him. Nobody’s gonna convince me that giving my run-all-day dog some animal fat is a bad idea. :us:

GF is a vet, we feed our dog animal fat, she doesn’t let him eat a ton because apparently pancreatitis is brutal but some fat from a steak here and there isn’t likely to do that.

Hah, wife is a vet tech - pancreatitis was her one ā€œbut-ā€. We’re talking less than once a week, so yeah - agreed.

It’s a bitch(lol). Unlike dogs, cats show no symptoms other than lethargy and inappetence so I had to spend hundreds on bloodwork.

My girlfriend has insurance on the dog, has since she was in vet school, part of it is peace of mind but part of it is knowing exactly how f***ing expensive going to see a vet is.

The only one I like on YouTube is John Meadows. Solid advice but the videos get repetitive after awhile.

That’s a pretty naive view of the business of entertainment, because it absolutely is a business at that point.

It’s amazing that they crowdsourced the cost of surgery. Otherwise that whopper would be coming out of somebody’s pocket.

Glad to see a fellow dog spoiler. We give our dog whipped cream from starbucks.

…so when do I get to deadlift 700 lbs? :joy:

you guys are making me feel better about sneaking our family friend’s dogs table scraps

Tell them it’s so that the dog won’t bite you. Based on the saying ā€œdo not bite the hand that feeds.ā€ Haha

I used to make mine scrambled eggs every weekend and when she was sick I’d make her ground beef.

I miss my puppy Wuppy.

As a teen, friends and I would take my dog to a takeout joint, buy a cheap dessert and sit out front feeding it to the dog.

This was like shooting fish in a barrel RE: the opposite sex. Particularly, ice cream.

Man’s best wingman :laughing:
