Off-Topic / What do you do for exercise?

« on: August 23, 2019, 11:07:18 am »Message ID: 1289585

I understand the gym works best for some people, but I've never had much patience for that kind of exercising. Just repeating some motion over and over with no context is mind numbing for me... personally I'm way more motivated if I'm doing some actual activity or accomplishing something.

Yard work is my go-to. In fact I just noticed I've gotten better muscle tone than I've ever tried to build on purpose, as a totally accidental side effect from some intensive outdoor projects this summer.

How do you get your exercise?

Off-Topic / ever taken care of wild baby birds /eggs?

« on: July 27, 2019, 11:17:25 am »Message ID: 1285723

I have helped a few stunned or dehydrated fledglings over the years, but this week I found the tiniest egg I've ever seen, 1cm long. I assumed it was probably no good but when I shine a flashlight under it I see somebody moving in there! I doubt I could take good enough care of a hatchling so I'm going to have to find a wildlife rehab if it gets that far. 

Have you ever taken care of a baby bird or egg that you found?

Off-Topic / What's the brag weather where you live

« on: July 19, 2019, 12:39:05 pm »Message ID: 1284934

What season or weather do folks brag about where you live? You know, the "You think THIS is hot/cold/stormy/humid? You should see how it is where I'M from!" weather?

We're in our brag season now in the desert.. lows in the 90s this week and it'll be an unusual year if we don't scrape 120 at some point. I know it's all relative but it's hard to keep my mouth shut when others complain how hot they are lol

Off-Topic / Area 51

« on: July 16, 2019, 11:44:11 am »Message ID: 1284493

What do you think will really happen with this stupid Storm Area 51 thing?

If you haven't heard, someone started an event on Facebook saying let's go to Nevada and storm Area 51 and see what's in there. Over a million users have said they're going. The whole event I'm assuming (hoping) is a joke and probably most of those people agreed as a joke but you know there will be a few who take it seriously.

I think it will amount to a few dozen morons standing around in the sun with their phones out waiting to film while absolutely nothing happens...

Off-Topic / What eyeliner do you use

« on: July 14, 2019, 05:02:49 pm »Message ID: 1284272

Ladies... or guys I guess if you're into that ... what brand eyeliner do you use?

I have used all the major brands and I find after a couple of hours my eyes just burn and sting. I don't know if it's a problem with my eyes or an ingredient in the makeup, but I would love to find one that doesn't do that. Are there any natural/gentle eyeliners anyone has experience with?

Off-Topic / hemp oil

« on: July 12, 2019, 09:43:11 am »Message ID: 1283978

Has anyone tried CBD or hemp oil? What did you try it for and did it work?
I bought my mother some for her chronic pain and arthritis after reading many reviews that said it helped that, unfortunately she says it does not at all. However she said it does help her sleep wonderfully every night whereas she used to struggle to get a couple of hours of sleep.

Off-Topic / Can you handle very hot peppers / spicy food?

« on: June 19, 2019, 10:25:45 am »Message ID: 1280538

I can't handle very hot peppers at all, but my brother in law can practically eat fire and shrug unimpressed. I'm going to try to grow some scotch bonnets and see if that gets him, lol. What is the hottest pepper or food you've had?

Off-Topic / Severe weather for the midwest...

« on: May 28, 2019, 10:38:11 am »Message ID: 1277218

It seems like there's been storm after storm in the midwest the past couple of weeks, I saw some flooding and tornado aftermath on the news this morning. Sounds like it's been a rough May for the plains.. has anyone here been impacted?

Off-Topic / Do you attach memories to your clothes?

« on: May 22, 2019, 10:27:02 am »Message ID: 1276393

Do you own clothing that you don't want to wear, not because it fits funny but because it has some kind of bad memory attached to it?
I have a shirt in my drawer that I've been skipping because I happened to be wearing it a recent few times when I got sick/injured and now it reminds me of that. I'm not thinking there is some kind of "bad luck" attached to a piece of fabric but it just reminds me of bad stuff and I finally decided to just get rid of it lol. Am I the only one who does this?

Off-Topic / Funny or die

Getting a lot of these in hypermx lately. Does anyone find anything on FOD funny? The repetition doesn't help, but what little of their videos I hear is always crass and abrasive. I turn my speakers down for it lol

Off-Topic / IHOP vs Denny's

« on: April 27, 2019, 09:41:11 am »Message ID: 1272573

Which do you prefer? Ihop has a little bit better food I think, but their prices in my town have really gone up in the past few years. I order the same small breakfast at both places so it seems silly to pay ~double for it there instead of Dennys.

Off-Topic / Skittles, Reeses pieces, or m&ms?

« on: April 25, 2019, 11:45:40 am »Message ID: 1272269

Which do you like best? My friend had the evil idea of mixing all 3 together in a bowl. I like all of them but it's a startling experience to expect one and bite into another.

Off-Topic / What did you dream last night?

« on: April 22, 2019, 09:58:03 am »Message ID: 1271927

What is the most random dream you remember having lately? I very rarely remember any of mine but last night I was trying to escape some kind of tropical island  maybe I need to quit watching Gilligan reruns...
