    That's just fucking embarassing then. Like explaining the internet to grandpa. Except he's a lawyer for the prosecution and trying to trick you.

    I enjoyed Dungeon Defenders, but the devs continually fucked that game up. I put a shit ton of hours into it though. Haven't played it in like a year+ though, so who knows if it's any good at this point. And Orcs Must Die was fun for a few hours. But I got bored of it quickly. It's like a...

    Except the majority of people in a gym are doing cardio. Have you ever been to a gym? A lot of them it's just rows and rows of treadmills and stair steppers and ellipticals. The problem with cardio is that it's a fixed effort. Once your body adapts to the stresses of it, it'll never develop...

    I don't have a Twitter, so I have no idea how that shit works, but it sounds like he was trying to imply that people Twitter was suggesting she follow were actually people she was following?

    Need to hold news agencies accountable if they're only using the moniker "news agency" and not actually providing news. If they're just entertainment, they shouldn't be allowed to call themselves news. So pretty much the entire 24 Hours News cycle needs to be renamed 24 Hour Entertainment News...

    This is why everyone, especially overweight people and women, needs to lift weights. Not light weights for high reps either. They need to be heavy. Weight lifting will increase bone density and strengthen tendons and ligaments. It's why I encourage my mother to lift weights. For all the obese...

    So you came to the weight lifting thread to ask for a weight lifting routine that won't produce muscle? Uh...if that's the case, keep on keeping on with what you're doing. You also gave us no point of reference for where you currently are. Not very helpful.

    Justice for Zimmerman

    And I'd argue that a lot of the racism towards blacks is self-inflicted. Whether that's by "hood-mentality" or asshats like Jackson and Sharpton. Or just the fact that blacks seem to point out racism way more than any other ethnic group in America. My wife was watching Big Brother last night and...

    Weight Loss Thread

    Watched Arkk's video. It's good, but it kind of muddies the issue for most people. It's basically talking about people who have wrecked their metabolism by dropping into the sub-10% (or probably 15% for women) body fat areas repeatedly. And now their BMR is well outside of the "normal" ranges of...

    Yeah, sounds like she has an eating disorder or body dysmorphia. That BMR is the absolute minimum needed to survive (hers is probably 1200-1300). Technically you can go below it, but your body starts cannibalizing itself. That is, until it realizes it's not going to get food and then it's in...

    Also, Noodle, it takes some calculating. First you need to find the person's BMR. It's not 100% accurate, but it's a good estimate of the minimum amount of calories to basically keep your organs running. From there, you have to add in any activities. That's ALL activities, so walking, talking...

    It may not be the case with broccoli, but many vegetables are picked underripe and then shipped to grocery stores, whereas frozen are basically fully ripened and then flash frozen. That extra time ripening apparently imparts additional nutritients. I don't know how much science is actually...

    Please, make it stop. Shit, someone even posted PICTURES, that show Martin was basically at home already and decided to go back and beat the shit out of Zimmerman. There was no "following," and even if there was, when is following someone a crime?

    Oh, Jets, never change. New York Jets already seem intent on screwing up Geno Smith, toying with 'change-of-pace' role Sounds like they just went out and got Geno because he's black and figured that surely he can run? Oh, and more ridiculousness from the NFL in regards to Hernandez...

    Looks like Jason is taking the "can't follow black people or else they'll be forced to attack you" defense. I also find it funny that he felt the judge was stellar and fair. Ok then.

    That's actually what I do. Grilled chicken, broccoli, and brown rice. All the damn time. Although I've been changing up the brown rice to pasta occasionally because apparently brown rice has a fuck load of arsenic.

    Make up your fucking mind. Your first statement is about burden of proof, which, in the context of your previous posts and mine is saying it's on Zimmerman to provide one that he's innocent; e.g. guilty until proven innocent. Your second sentence is saying it's on the state to prove you murdered...

    I wasn't very impressed with them in any of the games I watched last season. It seemed more like they just caught a lot of lucky breaks. The Panthers game and Seattle playoff game were two big ones where you're just like...you've gotta be shitting me.

    After however many years, I finally picked up Bastion. For $2 and some change, that's hard to pass up. Also got BL2 with season pass. I should've just bought it off Amazon the other week, but whatever. Think in both cases it ended up being $20.

    Pretty much this. Same goes for comics. Basically the 90's ruined it for everyone. People saw how much you could get and so everyone became a collector. But if everyone's a collector, it means no one wants it because it's not rare. So you've pretty much missed out on it being worth a damn.
