Nobody wants to hear that nobody “has time” to workout - we make time.
I avoid lifting talk at work if i can.

Anyone ever notice that fat guys are worried about dieting so hard they lose muscle, and skinny guys are worried about training so hard they overtrain?
Damndest thing really.

Yep.
If we could just swap a few of those parts around everything would be copacetic.

Oh that is the other good one that people say. “I dont want to get too muscular, I just want to look like X” for X insert someone who has tones of muscle and 8% bodyfat and who most likely uses special supplements. This person has a build that the person making said comment would never have the commitment or discipline to ever achieve.

It means they have no idea what they are talking about and they are sure to fail in their fitness related endeavors

It’s a marketing slogan to sell useless fitness products to overweight middle aged people.

Apparently I have an informal admission into my top choice grad programme, according to my advisor
Confession 1: I found out bc I mistyped advisor’s email in the form so she didn’t get the request for a letter
Confession 2: said advisor was on her way to the hospital to get induced, but my other letter writer was concerned about her not writing my letter so he emailed her asking why she hadn’t written my letter……
Gahhhhhhhh

Dear YouTube algorithm, please stop recommending me “music for programmers” when I watch certain videos about science and shit because:
- I am not a programmer
- I do not listen to nancy psuedo-techno stuff composed for girly men who sleep with their cartoon pajamas and pillow cases on. “Anime”? They’re CARTOONS.
Fuck. The End of Evangelion is in my top 10 favorite movies ever list but I still acknowledge it’s a CARTOON. So is Spirited Away.
THIS IS REAL MUSIC FOR EVERY FUCKING THING.
The magnificent guitar solo beats every fucking advancement in technology.
Disclaimer: I am not a Megadeth fan. Mustaine writes some great riffs even for Metallica’s 4 Hoursemen, but I love MARTY FRIEDMAN.
PS: I confess I still think Mustaine sounds like Bart Simpson. Flame me. I don’t care!
Non-fanboys, listen to this and decide for yourselves.

So I popped a blood vessel in my eye last week after 20-rep squats at 315lbs. Didn’t even notice until the next day (it was bad, like half my eye was flood-filled). My co-workers kept asking me what’s up with my eye and everything…
My confession is that I’m damn proud of pushing myself hard enough to pop a blood vessel in my eye, and I’m wearing it like a badge of honor.

It means they don’t want to jiggle when they walk. (Personally, I’m on board with less involuntary jiggling.)
How to Procrastinate Productively (facilethings.com)
I confess I got a great laugh (because it’s true) when I read this part:
“Natural procrastinators are actually great workers. They are able to do a lot of work, provided it is not the one they are supposed to be doing at the moment.”
Disclaimer: I am not a procrastinator. I was just reading up a little more on GTD and landed on this article while browsing the site.
PS: I had a business partner who acquired a masters in finance at Stanford through a scholarship. One of the biggest idiots I’ve ever met in my life and nearly tanked a side business which another associate and I co-invested in before I had to fucking step in and take over the reins. She almost completely fucked it up in 11 months. 11 years later it’s still running and generating a profit while I’ve been passive after cleaning up the mess and letting someone completely uneducated in anything close to business run it. The balance sheet and cash flow statements I had to plough through still give me nightmares.
PPS: I went through a pretty rigorous education myself, so this is not some “educated” vs “uneducated” kind of thing.
Getting in is the hard part. After that, it’s a warm, coddling experience.
Many, many years ago, I learned from a Stanford undergrad that students could take a course all the way up to getting a look at the final exam, and THEN decide whether they wanted to drop the course w/o penalty to their GPA.
I’m sure things are much harder these days though… (sarcasm)

Say what?
They don’t even let you do this at community college.

Yeah, the longer i stay in a class - the more impact withdrawing would affect my GPA. I also cant drop if I’ve completed a single assignment.
Not sure how this holds up in ivy leagues, but I’d have a hard time believing it’s easier for them.
