    Great option for a cage with the pulley. Im commenting on it to put it on my radar for later. Right now I'm just using bands, but I'd love to be able to do real pulldowns/pushdowns. Just gotta find room for a full cage. I got a squat/bench rack that works well for me now, mostly because I'm...

    Job Hunting

    Nah, actually, I owe them a huge debt of gratitude. You see, I do something very important that needs to be done, and the union didn't have a clear way to deal with that. My manager tried to get the union to update the contract to include my job, to keep my job union, but the union refused to...

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    I'm not saying this is what it is, but I absolutely have had this same experience. I was doing the string trimming a few years back, stopped because I was starting to get a headache. When I woke up the next day, I had probably the worst headache of my life. Nothing helped. Called into work...

    Job Hunting

    I went from union to non in the same company last year and it's a pretty stark difference. There are a ton of people who refuse to talk to me as a result. The good news is that they are mostly the people I don't want to talk to anyway, so it works out fine for me. They are also the same people...

    YouTube's War on Ad Blockers

    Phone and PC both run Brave. Havent noticed any change in behavior, saw a meme and then saw this thread, that's the only way I know about it. That being said, I can treat YouTube like cable any fucking time I want. Ball is in their court.

    Generalized family drama

    DO NOT compromise on raising some other dudes kids. Also - Being single is a young dude problem. Being single in your 20s there's not a lot of shit you can do because you don't offer a lot to women if you're not super good looking with abs. But, once you get on the other side of 35, you...

    Generalized family drama

    Some people are just shit, and that's all there is to it. I haven't talked to my dad in about 15 years, my mom in about 12, and one of my sisters in about the same. I regret none of it. They're absolutely garbage people who bring nothing to my life and I refuse to deal with it. I don't...

    Woodworking

    I tore the left one in 2017, so I'm pretty well aware of how it goes. This one feels like the right, but then the left one started hurting too, so not sure if I tore both, or if my left just hurts for me compensating for the right. The only good news is that I'm not doing heavy labor at work...

    Woodworking

    Yep, that was one option. It was not a good option when your logs are 500+lbs though. It was literally everything 3- 6' tall dudes could do to get mine up the hill, around the house, and up 6 inches onto the platform of my mill. I haven't had any time this summer to finish surfacing my stuff...

    Small type on my phone lead me to believe there was Sulfuron extract in it. No such luck, upon closer inspection.

    It's probably just that everyone sucks ass on the hiring front right now. Companies are slow as shit. If I hire a guy tomorrow, it's gonna be a month before I see him in orientation. I have no fucking clue how long ago he applied.

    When I was going thru my post vasectomy pain disorder, the 2nd opinion Dr. told me something I don't think I'll ever forget. "Chasing pain with surgery only leads to more pain."

    Yeah, allowing your ex any kind of leeway in regard to your romantic life is dumb as shit. I absolutely guarantee she is not going to stay single for the next 13 years to ensure your child doesn't have any other father type figures, so entertaining that fucking nonsense in any way right now is...

    I dunno man, I was a die hard Advil guy for years, and all I ever got out of it was stomach ulcers. The pre-arthritic pain I have in my knee is totally knocked out by Tylenol Arthritis, which has gotta be fucking snake oil, because there's no other ingredients in there aside from...

    That's exactly it. Great way to describe it...biting ants. It was fucking horrible. I was about to go out to the garage and get the wire brush. The only time it was tolerable was when I was in the shower. Turn the water up as hot as it would go and it would calm it down (probably just deaden...

    Yeah, that's what I thought too, but it's the same brand/bottle I've been using for awhile now, so that seemed unlikely. But then I sent the kid to the store to get whatever the fuck else they had, and got some spray and then something with lidocaine in it too and they both did the same shit. It...

    I had the week off last week, and had a few things I had to get done. One was to tear down some gutter and roof de-icing cables and then thread new ones up, so I was on the roof from about 9am to 1pm. It was about 80 degrees, but cloudy, so even though I know full well what can happen at that, I...

    Monster launched Reign a couple years ago specifically to compete with the 300mg caffeine, zero sugar, almost candy like flavors of Bang. And BCAAs, whatever the fuck those are. The hilarious thing is they are absolutely convinced that Reign's target market is gym bros. They had Thor Bjornssen...

    Monster acquired distribution rights to Bang. Not really sure why. Reign was supposed to compete with Bang. So my hunch is they bought it to kill it. I'm sure they'll push it for awhile, but I fully expect it to get shelved within a year, and then incorporating all the good flavors into Reigns...

    Honestly, you can do everything right and still not get anywhere. The fucking algorithms don't always work, and there's no human looking at resumes.

    I wouldn't use Tinder, but I paid for whatever premium shit was on OKC and had good luck with it. I had like 4 I guess what you could call short term relationships in a year from that. I didn't like anything I saw on PoF, and Bumble is just antithetical to the way relationships should work...
