Hello, I would like to start participating in the Friday thread.

It's 10:45 Central time here, and Friday is wrapping up.

Long time lurker. I have nothing to add, but I wanted to jump in or I never will. So, how do I get one of those flashy Friday Crew gang tags?

Went to the gym after work. 5 min elliptical warm up, then 10 min stretching, 15 minutes weight lifting, then 20 minutes swimming. I also walked to work and back home for a total of 11k steps today.

Feeling the good kind of sore. Maybe I'll do it again tomorrow. Gotta finish my library books before their due.

Goodnight Friday thread. Time for bed.

There's a very e/n reason as to why 😭

Happy Birthday :toot: 🥳

Edit: I hope you're got yourself something nice! what kind of cake did you get?


And a happy Friday to you all. The CBD drink is kicking in about now. :cheers:

Wringing ringing in Friday on the forums at 1am because I've had nasty insomnia for at least a month.

Here's hoping the new pills help 💊:420: I'm losing track of days.

let's all post our favorite pick up lines. ill start:

"do you have some dollars"
"ignorant piss-rear end"
"what is it anyway"

Here's one I got last week:

"HEY BLONDIE!!!"

"HEY!! COME HERE! BLONDIE! COME HERE!!"

"...YOU DROPPED SOMETHING."

(I check behind me)

"I KNEW YOU COULD HEAR ME!!! COME HERE! COME HERE! Come here! COME OVER HERE!!!"

The 'you dropped something' line really worked to get me to pause. Bravo to that rear end in a top hat's ingenuity, I hadn't got that one before! However, it's the general shouting cat calls that's always a turn off.

Also, a guy walked up to me in the park and asked me how old I was, and when I answered he looked shocked and disappapointed, and said "oh." Which was a little bit of an insult because he wasn't interested in a woman older than him, but it also felt like a compliment because I must look a few years younger than I am. :sparkles: I'm still riding that high a year later. :sparkles:

mine were jokes but that sucks a lot.

"well, how is it to have sex? haha" is another good one

Sorry, I'm not trying to bring down the Friday thread.

On another note, I got myself into the gym tonight, and that always gets me feeling good.

5min walk/5 min run
10 min stretching
15 min weight lifting
20+ swimming

no need to be sorry, you should talk about heavy poo poo when you feel like it.

what sort of a bourgeoisie gym has a pool where you can swim for 20 minutes??

:thanks: :h:



I go to LifeTime Fitness which is fairly bougie. My workplace gives me a discount, so I treated myself to a membership this year as my Christmas present to myself.

However, I'm still fortunate that the pool is the least-used part of the gym, so I can typically get a lane to myself for 20 minutes. It's my special place. :comfyoot: sometimes I just hang out there and read.

concern was more about the degree of strangeness. turns the strange honey is in fact good for anxiety, but now everything feels like it’s vibrating and i think it’s gonna take a bit to figure out if that was an acceptable tradeoff

Is this that Tibetan honey that's made by bees that frequent psychadelic flowers? I tried two teaspoons of that stuff once and it had no effect.

How are you doing now?

Day 15 of new prescription, no side effects this time, and having less insomnia. Despite being up at 1:30 am, I'll probably go to bed soon.

My estranged father texts me out of the blue. Says he wants to make things right...just as I start to feel better and had let go of wanting him in my life. :wtfdude:

Anyway, PAYDAY TODAY! I want to go check out Dune 2 while its in theaters.

Hey gang, how foamy is your urine?

0-1% foamy.

credburn posted:

Sometimes the pee is so foamy that it takes three flushes to get 100% of the foam gone.

:psyduck: Please see a doctor and drink more water.

It's astounding how we can become normalized to abnormal body functions because we have no one else to compare it to.

On another note that isn't piss related, the sun has come out today and I've got the windows cracked open. Feels good. Warm, yellow sunlight, dripping everywhere.

Hello Friday thread, I'm going to need all the positive energy in the world today.

Lots of yucky, terrible personal things going on at the same time.

I'm sorry the universe often seems to have a "when it rains, it storms" energy to terrible things. I hope your able to resolve at least one terrible thing soon so it isn't all piling up on you at once.

Sending positive vibes your way! :nyan:

Hello Friday Thread,
I just ate some pizza and now I'm vibing with some video game soundtracks as I'm lying on the couch taking a nap.

Hell yeah, that sounds sweet.

Paper's Please is a fun game that becomes surprisingly intense considering there are no surprises, just a countdown timer.

Stay excellent Friday thread!

Hello Friday thread. Feeling kinda lazy today and the latte with lunch didn't help much.

I'm going to a Beethoven symphony #8 concert tomorrow evening at the Minneapolis orchestra hall. Never been there before. It's an hour long concert, and the last time I went to something like this was in elementary school.

Happy Friday!

Hey Friday night! Feelin just right.

I worked out at the gym and I've been feeling those content-with-life brain chemicals all night. Ahhhh, feels like everythings going to be okay right now.

Also, I'm starting to notice that bench pressing dumbbells and the weighted leg press are both becoming easier at my current weights, so it was satisfying to know my efforts are paying off.

I hope everyone is doing alright.

edit: ^^^ excellent! I'm glad you exercised and are feeling good. I think I'm feeling a little better myself ;)

I was just going to go around my neighborhood a couple of times but kept walking and went down along the lake but it was colder and windier there so I turned back. I got 3 miles in but now I kinda down feel like cooking at 10:30pm.

I might anyway but it'd take a while. :shrug:

Thanks! I'm glad you got in 3 miles despite the rain/cold tonight.

Good luck if you end up cooking your German skillet, that sounds so good!
