But depression is a clinical disorder. Once you have depression you have it for life and often for no reason. Nothing can make you feel better


First time I've heard that clinical disorders are untreatable

I never like the idea of doing cardio before I do it, but after I do it I feel better every time.

I'm still trying to figure out how to convince pre-workout me to stay on top of it.


My trick is to keep the workouts short and to not sit down when I get home, because once you sit down it's game over. First thing I do when I get in the door is get changed into my gear.

I wouldn't quite put it that way. He's 60 years old and working in 2nd line tech support. Guy never developed any depth in programming or general IT skills so instead he just found a particular weird niche in this company. His knowledge is so particular it would be near 100% useless in any other company. He's be honestly screwed if he lost his job. He's like the janitor who's worked in the school for 30 years and knows all the locker combinations by heart.

Him: Oh they haven't given me enough information to progress it.
Me: Have you followed up?
Him: I was just waiting for them to get back to me.
Me: Actually just looking at the email trail now, the client did get back to you with everything you need, that was 3 weeks ago.
Him: Ah I didn't notice that. Yep I can pick it up from here.

This was 3 weeks ago. He's on holiday now and I'm checking his handover notes. Guess what he had to say about X issue? "Client hasn't provided enough information, just waiting on client to get back to me."

It's 30 minutes worth of work and it's taken him 6 fucking weeks. Now I have to go present to this client and make up some horseshit and hope they swallow it.

I understand where you're coming from, but would you call a movie theater some kind of entertainment casino lol


When you buy a ticket from the theatre you know what you're paying for, you just don't know how good it's going to be. But you will get a complete movie experience, with no ugly surprises.

You also don't buy the ticket 6 months in advance when the only thing that's been released is a 15 second teaser trailer.

The gambling comment was more towards lootboxes that encourage you to splurge out huge sums of money for a perceived risk-reward transaction. Like imagine if you went to the theatre and put down $15 and it was just a case of pot-luck to see what movie ticket you get.

and when I wheeled him into the ER, I covered him with a blanket to hide it and this guy literally pulls his arm out and lays it tattoo up to show it off to the world 2 seconds later. Idk why neo-nazis always show that shit off >_> They have zero self-awareness I guess.

How much to hem pants on a suit is kind of a contextual question. How old are you, what would be wearing the suit for generally? Summer or year round?

Extreme slim fits work quite well for an edgier shorter hem and for sort of party like occassions like a summer wedding, but I wouldn't wear that around the office if you get me.

Like this would be a cool look for a young guy:
https://images.topman.com/i/TopMan/TM87J21QBLE_C_1.jpg?$Large$

But not so cool on an older guy. If it's your only and first ever suit and you want to wear it for lots of different kinds of events I'd go with a clean break like this:

Because skipping around a walkthrough video trying to find the one thing you need is so much better

Actually it kind of is. I never managed to beat 2 games because of not finding a text walktrhough that expained it clearly.

The original Tomb Raider and the original Thief. Both games I got stuck at a climbing section because I could not figure out where to move up. Thief really pissed me off because it was in beginning of the 2nd level. So I never got to play about 95% of the game. It was bullshit. All cause of this one platforming section

And every walktrhough I read for either game didn't really help me.

"Climb the sections of stone and progress up"

Ok but.... how? Where exactly do I jump?

"Fuck you, that's how"

Actually seeing it on YouTube is better so I know exactly what to do

That Split_infinity motherfucker probably wrote 3 chapters and a helpful table for all of that. You could find the entire encyclopedia to a game in a text file on gamefaqs and it would be like 10mbs at most.

Now though, it ain't like that. Now you google that problem and you find an article written by IGN that has 90% fluffy shit and a bunch of unhelpful screenshots before you get to the good stuff. Each individual item and quest has an entire webpage devoted to it. This is not progress.
