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

Counter proposal: they nap a lot because they are tired from all the physical exertion they do as part of their profession while still having the luxury of time for naps.

But watch the Men’s Health video on YouTube about Chef Rush - the White House chef with 24ā€ arms! He says he’s all natural, eats 6-10,000 calories a day, wakes up at 3 am and eats his last meal at 12am! He also says he does 2,222 pushups every day, in 1 hour 15 minutes, right after waking up.

Seriously, it’s still up - they haven’t taken it down even with countless people pointing out that his eating schedule allows for about 2-2.5 hours of sleep a night.

Probably still more credible than 90% of what Men’s Health puts out there.

Ugh…

I confess that the wife scheduled us for a Covid shot today, and I’d rather wrassel with a alligator.

Ugh.

I know we are supposed to be flame free, but given your heritage I am upset you did not say Grendel.

Yep, exactly!

My people aren’t afraid of Grendel tho…

Alligators are big, but they are quite lazy. It’s the crocodiles that are really scary

This was probably the only time where the guy they were parodying was actually funnier and more animated in real life.

The dude very excitedly decided to crawl into a rabbit hole(or was it some other animal? Can’t remember) in one episode and came out even more exited like he’d just been to a Vietnamese massage parlour and had a happy ending. Fucking laughed my ass off.

I confess I’ve watched the Russell Crowe parody so many times to count I memorized the theme song.

ā€œMy fightin’ is poetry! You don’t edit Russell Crowe’s poetry, you testicle!ā€

Beats up the editor for cutting his scene short.

LOLOLOL

I am more disappointed than I should be that I didn’t find any marked down Easter candy today.

How do you ā€œbrute forceā€ 8 hours of sleep? And why do you say the quality is bad?

Joke. I don’t know @anna_5588 's situation. But some of it is pretty accurate for some of us with sleep problems.

I normally end up waking up fully awake 3 hours too early and if I try to go back to sleep, the dreams(not even nightmares) are so vivid with intermittent wakefulness I wake up more exhausted than before. Other times, I wake up 2-3 times a night half asleep and have the urge to just say ā€œfuck itā€ and get up and do something constructive.

I got some medication which let me fall into deep sleep for 8 hours but it only lasted while I was on it. But at least there were no withdrawal symptoms like benzos.

Finally, a Maiden related post i can get on board with. After all this bashing on Bruce and the whole ā€œbanana on pizzaā€ debacle, I was worried I’d have to leave the site.

What I mean is that I’m making up for poor sleep quality by spending more time in bed. I’m in bed for 8hrs, but I’m probably getting less deep sleep than a lot of ppl who get 6hrs

I have a hard time finding a comfortable position so I took and turn/ wake up to stretch my neck at least 5-6 times/night, I’m also semi- conscious during my dreams but the dreams are also very vivid. Also, on most days, I wake up tired and wishing. I could stay in bed longer.

I’ve experience some pretty gnarly dream shit too. The trippiest are the inception type dreams where I think I’ve woken up but I’m in a dream, and then I ā€œwake upā€ omly to realize I’m still in a dream :joy::joy:

I also usually ā€œhearā€ my alarm go off 30-50min before it actually does

When I have ice cream in the house and I have a training session in the morning, I will tell myself that I can have the ice cream after dinner if I have a good session.

I reckon I have been doing this my entire life and somehow I always seem to have a ā€œgoodā€ session…

Anyway, this is topical because I saw an article about how we don’t need to ā€œearnā€ our food. I wonder what people who write this type of thing are thinking…
