Shame Boy posted:The rings are actually made out of tungsten carbide because "tungsten is too hard to work", as far as I can tell you can't actually get pure tungsten rings easily (and if you can I'd like to know) tungsten carbide is cool stuff too https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7qqi5HtZQrs

EmbryoSteve posted:Outside of actually getting married. Getting a sweet ring was what I was looking forward to the most. Jewelry is cool as heck just lmao if your fragile masculinity is threatened by jewelry lol @ going all weird about wearing worthless garbage on your finger. I don't wear jewelry because I don't like wasting money.

It might not just be about masculinity. If I was expected to wear a ring every day for the rest of my married life I would want something that I really liked to wear. I probably won't get married for the same reason I won't get a tattoo - don't want something I'll regret (also stingy with money).

I bought a $10 ring on Amazon the weekend before my wedding and only wore it that day. Now it sits on the trunk of a ceramic elephant on my mantle. I know a few other married guys that don't wear rings as well. Also I had no idea that a woman's engagement ring and wedding band were different things. She only has an engagement ring that I got at a small consignment shop.

Shame Boy posted:My grandpa lost feeling in his ring finger (and his entire pinky finger and one eye) thanks to shrapnel in WWII. After the war he worked as a mechanic, and one day he was fixing a car and smelled grilled meat, looked down and saw that his ring had shorted out the car battery and was glowing red hot I had a great uncle with a similar problem affecting his whole left arm, but instead of any kind of noble reason it was because he passed out drunk in the wrong position and hosed up a nerve.

You can get more energy by starting basically any new diet because your body responds to a sudden change in caloric intake by increasing adrenal hormones like cortisol. The shits aren't necessary.

Lmao I'm in the waiting room at the doctor's office and the TV is on so I'm having my latest rare exposure to network TV, and holy poo poo have payday loan commercials gotten even more disgustingly exploitative. An intimidating muscular woman looks directly into the camera and tells you "I don't ask family for money, I call that being self reliant" while doing push-ups. Haha what are you some kinda weak pussy-baby who goes running to family members when you need money? gently caress no, come get a 1000% APR loan instead you goddamn wuss.

I was blown away on my last visit back home to the US that there are now apparently payday loan apps where you can instantly borrow 75 bucks. Oh and PSAs about the signs of sepsis since people are afraid to go to the doctor because who loving knows how much it will end up costing. Cool and normal country.
