"zero!" loved it. that chick in the "gym for lazy rich people".... jesus how did she get that far in life? ive been to superclubs less stuck up and obsessed with presentation than that place.
Re: But where did you put it? yes, but all caps? i feel like he's bragging by shouting it at me every time i see it. where's the humility?
clearly you've not spent any time around crossfit snobs. like i said, i'm not patently against it and i've seen it do some great stuff for people, but the "lifestyle" nature of it is oppressive. its just people that only want to be around other crossfitters so they get hard for a gym that they can just sit around for hours. i work with a girl who is super into crossfit and she literally will only date other crossfit dudes. also, that gym is probably a revelation cause most crossfit gyms, you are paying $250 a month to work out in a shitty warehouse. lets be honest, she also probably got farther than she should cause she's hot and crossfitters are super vain.
either crossfit hasn't caught on in my city or its just not popular. some people at my gym train that way, but i have never seen anybody do pull-ups that retarded before. maybe people should start calling them "chin-ups" again so they get the right idea. i have nothing against crossfit hey, at least you're exercising but those are not pull-ups. people in the videos just seem to be cheating themselves. it's like cheating at golf: what's the point?
not only does our house have a banister now, one of the bedrooms has carpet! whoo-hoo! i recommend never, under any circumstances, purchasing an old house in order to renovate it. it will be beautiful when we're done and we're getting very close to being able to move in but if i were to step into a time machine and walk out the day we looked at the house, there's no way i'd agree to it. too much stress, waaaay too much money, and entirely too much time (she says 6 years and 2 kids after buying aforementioned house.)
i am obsessed with restoration house on bbc. follows progress folks make renovating 17th-19th century homes/manors that have fallen into disrepair. luckily, i have no skill, talent, or clue whatsoever when it comes to building, soooo... i don't know where i'm going with that. my house needs a bunch of aesthetic repairs and i weep at the potential carpenter's bill. i'm not going to be that guy that practices on his own home. also, fall isn't for another month, but i'm totally doing this with some shipyard pumpkin. pumpkin keg. brilliant.
this house was built in 1904. honestly, it's a pretty awesome house. i still don't know that it's worth all the blood, sweat, and tears we've put into it though.
should i give a shit about this ice bucket challenge? is there anything beyond just pouring ice on someone like a football coach?
it's done a fantastic job of raising money and awareness for als. whenever you get billionaires and celebrities into a pissing match and calling each other out and challenging each other, it's a good thing for that cause. never mind the whole wet t-shirt stuff.
it's quadrupled the donations for the als foundation from the same period last year. i know people bag on social media "awareness" campaigns but if it causes people to donate, it's a good thing. plus there have been at least half a dozen bikini clad women dumping water on themselves in my news feed, which is also a good thing.
this is most definitely a diy for me this halloween. lots of dads walking their kids around still like the pull the ol' "trick or beer!" joke when they come to the door, maybe i'll be extra kind this year. halloween rules.
