I dont feel like running anymore, it sucks as exercise, fucks my legs and it feels like it takes way too long

People aren't born to run IMO, but what do you mean it takes too long? You know you can decide for yourself how long you run right? :sabu
There's actually pretty good indication that we are born to run. Few (any?) things on the planet can outrun us in endurance race. Some tribes in South Africa still run their prey down. Two long legs, sweating, glabrous skin. It all fits nicely together.

Momo, try rock climbing.

Isn't that endurance thing more about walking or quick walking? Lots of runners have knee problems. Could be due to previous sedentary lifestyle or bad running habits though.

Hard asphalt and concrete don't make for great running surfaces either, though I don't know how much proper running shoes can mitigate this.

It depends on what you mean by a 'difference' :yeshrug

Even walking counts as exercise IMO

Actively losing weight.

Running is terrible.  As a white man I should never have to run.

That's... not what I meant. :doge Some people just don't enjoy running. I say that as someone who really, really enjoys running. But I've noticed some people run but they don't enjoy it, have difficulty motivating themselves, etc. If that's the case, then I think it's best to not run and try to find some other type of exercise that you might enjoy.
I agree. I worked with a guy who did Iron Man races and told him I despised running. He was like "Puppy. You'll LOVE running it's fantastic!! Give it 4 weeks of running 3 or more times a week and you'll LOVE LOVE LOVE it!"

I did 4 times a week for 6 weeks. At the end of 6 weeks, guess what? I still hated running.

I'm talking distance running on asphalt. I have nice shoes and all, but it still wrecks my shins and knees, I used to play basketball and was a bit too try hard so I dont really think I should. RE too long - it takes me like 60 mins to run 10km at a a nice relaxing pace and I feel I can better utilize that by doing 15 mins on the ladder or just grabbing the nearest Joe for 3 x 3 min randoori. I like running, runners are nice people and all, but I feel I want to get more done instead. As for food, I eat well 5 - 6 days (paleo) out of 7 and cheat/eat whatever 1 - 2 days. I'm due a hard reset 2 months or so tbh

Washing my car for the first time in a year.  It looks way nicer now lol I really need to do this more often.  Haircuts & car washes are things I put off and do like twice a year.

I hate hair cuts too.  It takes me like 2 weeks to work up the will to go and by that time it starts curling the other way and looking good again.  At least rat tails get me in after like 3 months.

running is about as enjoyable as a bladder infection. i run four miles over our hill twice to thrice weekly because i like some semblence of fitness -- being winded going up stairs is even worse -- but it never, ever is anything other than mind-flensing boredom and discomfort.

That's what I was wondering. I thought most businesses explicitly forbid employees from chasing shoplifters (much less armed robbers) because they don't want to get sued for any injuries.

Yeah, I had some acquaintances who worked "asset management" for a couple years, a decade or more back, at a pair of Targets and essentially there's a zone where if you get to it you're home free because they aren't to pursue any kind of shoplifters beyond that point.

They were advised to not really do anything except if they can corner the person in the center of the store and they don't seem like a threat and that the person will just turn the product back over. Apparently only like 5% of them would ever run or fight back or something. Especially women or people trying to hide it but shop legitimately otherwise, they'd just go up and be like "um, what are you doing?" and get the item back and tell the person to leave.

The one guy quit because he took the job mainly because he wanted to chase people down and crack skulls and they're telling him not to do anything because saving the products aren't worth the cost to the company.  :lol

He probably became a cop.

The first day I was in retail, I watched some video that was called something like "Don't Be A Hero" and it said not to pursue or physically confront shoplifters.  Seems ridiculous to put your life on the line because some jackass stole a couple of DVDs.

Store got robbed today. Like an idiot, I tried to stop them. Guns are terrifying. Glad my ass ain't die.

Glad you're OK.


holy shit.  Wtf, glad you are alive.  Jesus, don't do that shit. 

We are also glad you didn't die.
Don't die for other people's money. Don't die for your own money. You can always make more.

Thanks.

Was given a lot of shit today for not stopping them, was upsetting to hear from people I work with basically say "Yeah, but..." in response to "I didn't want to die last night."
First I'm glad you're ok dude.

But let this be a lesson: the corporate overlords don't give a shit about you. You exist to help them reach or surpass a bottom line, and you are expendable. This isn't just about retail btw, it applies to most shit. Your life (and HEALTH) are way more important than chasing down some thief.

I think something weird is going on with the place next door.

We moved into our condo about a year and a half ago.  For whatever reason, the place next door has changed owners four times now-  The first resident was an elderly lady who would just look at you, shake her head, and mosey on back inside.  Guess she got too old and her family moved her out.  The place then went to much younger woman who spent like two weeks renovating the place, around the clock, and then disappeared.  Turns out she got a job across the country and up and sold the place.  The guy who followed was there the longest, but he too disappeared for long stretches of time before he finally put the place up for sale.

Never saw who actually bought the place.  One weekend we see a heavyset, rotund lady in unflattering spandex moving a few items in.  We go to talk to her and she acts oddly distant/nervous and says that her in-laws are going to be moving in the following weekend.  She comes and goes throughout the week, then disappears-- nobody moves in.  Never saw her husband, either.  Then another week later, a moving truck comes by and they bring a bunch of stuff in.  Still, nobody is there.  A week later and another moving truck comes in-- different company.  It was hard to tell if they were moving stuff in or out.  Just weird. 

Then in the past week, we've been seeing a woman with a kid going in and out of the place.  No way this is the other lady's mother-in-law.  Odder still, the woman will drop the kid off and then come back hours later, get him, and leave-- nobody seems to ever be there at night.

When I come home in the afternoon, I can hear movement coming from below, but there's no cars outside and the kid couldn't possibly be there since school has already started.  If it is the fabled in-laws, then they literally never go outside ever and have no way to get around.  My theory right now is that this place is being rented out or used as some kind of air bnb thing...which is not allowed in this complex.  I dunno.  Would at least explain why the heavyset woman seemed so hesitant to talk to us.

Came home yesterday and the mystery neighbors were again moving more shit inside.  How much stuff is there?  Stuff has been getting moved in for literally weeks now.  It's a freaking 1500 sq ft. condo!

Then my wife comes home and goes "did you notice that there's a different car out there today?  This one's from New York.  I'm with you- something weird is going on there."

Went to the grocery store and a talkative black guy was standing with me in line and he started talking about how Trump worries him and how he's losing and how he's worried about Trump saying that Hillary is cheating and that's going to turn people crazy. I told him I couldn't agree more and that the last thing this election needs is "a bunch of Trump thugs out at the polls on election day."

The dude replied, "Oh there's hardly any black trump supporters."

I was like :confused

When did I say anything about black people? Misreading my confusion and added , "No really. And any that do support him are race traitors."

Decided to rent a condo down at Saint Simon's Island over Labor Day weekend.  We're gonna drive down there that Friday and stay through Monday.  I read that the place was pretty dog-friendly, which was the whole reason I booked the trip-- wife has been wanting to take the dog to a beach.

Except I noticed this morning that the beach doesn't allow dogs between 9:00 AM and 6:00 PM from Memorial Day through Labor Day.
:dead

But there's other stuff to do and I guess we can walk her before and/or after that time.  And if worst comes to worst...guess we're driving over to nearby Jekyll Island instead (It's less than 30 minutes away).  They don't have time restrictions on their beaches.  :doge

Having been a mormon and still somewhat active in some mormon circles to help others transition out I get in a lot of weird conversations. Had a conversation with a lady online who is exmormon but really anti-porn. Her point of it was that porn was like rape, instituted by men to make money. When I said there were sites where people who were into exhibition posted stuff and they made no money at all from it that they did it because they wanted to and also there were sites with tons of amateur porn where no one was getting paid or anything. She countered that most of those women didn't consent to putting up the videos and that even when they did there was still a group of men running the servers making money off it so it was no different. I pointed out several porn sites are owned by women. She said they fed money into companies run by men. So I asked her then what would happen if there was a Marxist seizing of the means of production and the servers were taken by the people would she have her problems then? She said, no. Because it wouldn't be "porn" anymore.

I would seize my means of production to some Marxist non-porn.

Johny Depp is so weird in interviews leading me to believe he is not a great actor as he is just himself in movies and then tries to act as a normal person in interviews and fails.
