    Yes, weight lifting is a lot like soil enriching.

    The Girls Who Broke Your Heart Thread

    I think I figured out your mystery, bro. Takes much longer than a week of no exercise to pack on noticeable weight. Unless you're eating like a feeder(talk to Blackyce). Gaining muscles takes more than just calories stuffing and weight lifting. Occam's razor says you're doing it wrong. So...

    We get a "new" guy playing a monk every week. I know you've been reading the thread, just go back a few weeks. One of my posts details everything about end game monk builds. Remove CM from wizards, put something similar on an item. Troll Blizzard.

    Yes, only listen to people that have used it! From that first link: Sounds like he could use some more accurate calipers.

    The "Shit I just bought" thread

    I'm looking here JDS Labs - O2+ODAC Combo And it says it doesn't contain batteries, so how would that be portable? What does modified version offered by audio poutine offer over the JDS version?

    Ever work at a position where you do absolutely nothing?

    I thought noodlebro was all psyched to get hired at his new job. I went back to his post fully expecting hatorade to have responded to a post from 4 months ago.

    Ever work at a position where you do absolutely nothing?

    Look at this asshole, reaping what he sowed. My company is forcing 3 weeks furlough(paid if you got the vacation time) at the end of the year. Now I can't decide if this means I should be even less motivated to work or more. Just to clarify, there's absolutely 0 shades of grey in my...

    The "Shit I just bought" thread

    Always. But what bugs me about audio products is that it's highly subjective or tries to be objective and goes over my head. I COULD understand all the shit NwAvGuy spews onto his blog, I just don't have the motivation. Thanks for the links. I'll keep your offer in mind. My employer is...

    Don't be silly, skinny people injure themselves falling all the time. Fat people have more cushion for the impact.

    What happened to the dude that did the O2 amp? I was looking forward to his desktop version. Also, how can I tell if the amp I have is suitable for the headphones I have(or are looking at)? I've heard improper pairings can lead to headphone damage.

    No, Italian food still tastes really good. Don't worry, you haven't been wasting your time.

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    5% dps upgrade for a really minor hit to eHP sounds worth it to me. But, your eHP is ridiculously low, you're not coming anywhere near MP10 with those kinds of stats. One bull rush will ruin you. I think 500k is the minimum to safely take a bull rush on MP10.

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    No, I was explaining what you should have bought. Those might not be upgrades anymore. You can't think of it in terms of just HP. Go plug your character into d3rawr and figure out the eHP of upgrades. Vile Wards don't have the 6% life stat(but they can) but will come with a lot more AC and...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Vile Ward for your shoulder. If you're going Cloud of Bats, pick up a LS Skorn. If not, pick up a Manajuma's Carver. Lacuni Prowlers aren't needed, you're already capped on movement speed from the boots and pants. Or ditch the pants. But most keep the pants since the BoA recipe for bracers...

    A few of your choices were puzzling. Probably just didn't know there was a cheaper/superior set/legendary in that slot.

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Right, that's why it was so cheap, no one uses LoH anymore, it's essentially a garbage stat. With ~5% LS on that axe, you'd be able to tank the skeleton king no problem. But the paradigm is not "tanking" anymore. If elites don't blow up in is 3-5 bells, you're wasting your time. At that...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    "rampaging" MP7 with that gear seems unlikely. Doable, sure, but you should be down at MP6 or 5 with that dps. In fact, I'm not sure how you're not dying to spike damage since sweeping winds can't proc LoH and you have no life steal. I guess the three defensive overkill passives help. Your...

    Malazan Book Of The Fallen

    I have read that series. Shame that he killed off the bongos dude so early. Heh, no one said Gardens was easy to follow. That's a feature for those that enjoy the series. Erikson does that on purpose. He rarely ever explains the history of his settings, it just comes out naturally in...

    Thanks for the response, Elurin. I'm not going to do CrossFit because I've heard of too many idiots injuring themselves, even on this forum. I do have P90X sitting on my hard drive, might try that. But, I have been reading that marriage thread and I think I found my motivation: keep looking...

    Malazan Book Of The Fallen

    Oh, one thing I forgot to add. The Malazan marine squad. You won't get this from his current trilogy obviously. But Erikson is the first author I can remember where I was excited not to read about a character(not to say there aren't some good ones in this series) but a group of characters...

    It's the latter. I'll slightly disagree with you about the giving motivation part. For most people, yeah, sure, motivation has to come from within. But I'm an engineer, I wouldn't be good at my job if I didn't take advice/criticism objectively. Also, if I didn't spend all work day farting...

    Well, Elurin might actually be lifting like a madman. I asked this a while back, but he must have missed it, but he had commented that he sometimes has to take 5 days off his regimen to let his joints heal. McCheese, I'm not sure using sports is a good example. Pro athletes are fucked up...

    Malazan Book Of The Fallen

    Chrisd, I'm honestly surprised you were able to start at Forge of Darkness. I had assumed the book was written with the assumption that the reader had read at least some of the main series. As for the philosophizing, this seems to be a trait Erikson picked up later on. Toll the Hounds(book...

    Not being a diabetic scooter-driving hambeast is nowhere in the same realm of the strength training Elurin does. The people you're describing could solve/prevent a lot of their problems with a healthy dose cardio that he hates. Please don't confuse exercise for health reasons, which I totally...

    It doesn't HAVE to be anything beyond hobby, that's why I was asking. And obviously I can't quantify the difference between bad effects of sitting in front of a computer for a while(posture and eye sight) versus serious strength training, but I'm leaning towards the latter being more...

    My motivation is not having to buy new clothes. Also, as a former fat kid, I ain't ever going back. Fuck that. Elurin, this isn't meant as an insult, but look good naked for who? You mentioned in the marriage thread that you and your wife rarely have coitus, so who are you improving your...

    Pretty much the same here Eomer. 1-2 a week BUT it's much better sex than when we were doing it more frequently.

    Bluetooth speakers

    Thanks for some of the recommendations. A few of these are a bit more than I wanted to pay as a surprise Christmas gift. Is it safe to assume that those that run of a battery can just bypass it by plugging it in? Yes, it's been that long since I've used something like this.
