Re: Health and Fitness
Too many people brush their teeth as if teeth grow in straight lines and take a 90 degree turn. Straight across the front, then they turn brush 90 degrees to brush the sides. Then when they smile you could see that the teeth in the 45 degree position, left and right of the front teeth, aren't as white as the others.

Re: Health and Fitness
My favorite sport to play - paddle ball - is deader than ever. Modell's no longer sells the paddles. I tried a website for an organization so I can potentially hook up with other players but it was down. Another website had nothing on one-wall paddle ball, which is the normal paddle ball I'm familiar with, but referred me to another website which is for an organization that teaches it to children in NYC. That's about it. RIP paddle ball.
Now, in NYC, I'm pretty sure I know where to find adult players, but I'm not there any more. And that was a few years ago, so who knows even about that place.
I like tennis too, but not as much. Too much opportunity to miss in one way or another. I like hitting every shot hard but I can't do that in tennis. Maybe with practice.

Re: Health and Fitness
After two months of light use, my Xterra WS200 treadmill stopped suddenly in the middle of my walking two days in a row. I unplugged it and I won't get on it again. No error code was produced. Edit: 600 freakin dollars. I submitted a warranty claim but I don't have the box.
I tried some of my warm spring water after freshly opening it and it tasted like cardboard. I'm trying to go back to glass bottled water even at crazy prices. Either Acqua Panna or Mountain Valley. I chose to order it through Uber eats, but had a mystery problem checking out, just like with my attempt at a second ride with Uber. Maybe I need to install their app, but I had their app installed when I tried to get a ride and it didn't work, so no more Uber stuff for me.
Had my window closed for 24 hours a day or two ago and finally decided to open it for fresh air. I immediately smelled pot smoke so I closed it right back up and turned on the fan and air cleaner. I still want to move.

Re: Health and Fitness
I went into my cardio machine research expecting to pay about $300. I ended up paying about $550 (I said $600 above, but I'm not sure and don't want to look it up). I still wanted one after the treadmill died, so I upped my price to $1000, and considered some for around $1200. Still nothing! I didn't like what some of the reviews said. So, I considered ellipticals and exercise bikes. Nothing! Then I decided to get a regular bike with a trainer stand for it. I'd be fine with that. But then I accidently found:
I think this is a great deal on a bike that got decent reviews, but I have to think of it as a semi-disposable item that may very well last just two years, rather than a piece of furniture.

Re: Health and Fitness
The one I use cost 300 or 350 I think and I've been using it intensely about three months a year since 2021. It's great. My very favorite exercise machine is the elliptical but I can still do a full-body workout on the spinning bike if I simultaneously do push-ups on the handlebars. xDHighlyIrregular II wrote: ↑Wed Nov 13, 2024 1:04 amI went into my cardio machine research expecting to pay about $300.

Ecstasy every day, unmatched by what they could get from people in their life, and they complain about being less connected to people that they "generally love." Maybe introduce these kinda-loves of your life to porn so they'll be OK with it.

Courtney lost her virginity when she was 18 - a moment she describes as "terrible". "It never felt like real life matched up to the hype...that I got from watching porn or masturbating," she says. Courtney eventually realised that she had an unhealthy dependency on porn. "I would always find myself fighting whether I could actually stop and it would literally just leave me feeling so powerless," she said...
For Shaun, his excessive porn habit led to him being “exhausted” from masturbating..."The addiction made me lose connections and now I'm trying to be connected to people that I generally love and I really care about," he says.

Re: Health and Fitness
They came an hour 15 minutes late even though they had a four hour window. I gave one of them $20 to split with the other. Then I get a text asking me to review them. I'm not sure if it asks whether they were on time. I may just block the number and not answer.

Re: Health and Fitness
Finally adjusted my exercise bike so it's comfortable. Not enough people mention seat angle when talking about comfort. My handlebars are higher than the seat and I still like the front of the seat tilted downwards. Maybe that's because the seat has a lot of padding and my butt squishes the back of this one more than most seats would get squished, so the seat is kind of level once I sit.
