Useless red circle, I know, but in my defense I didn’t put it there, it was already like this when I found it.

This is the sort of smartass thing I would try right before getting bludgeoned to death.

Time to hit the treadmill, or I'm dead.

My wife would take me, instead of complaining that they don’t make them like that anymore why not be the type of person they would want to take?

"Useless red circle" is there to accommodate both the lower attention span and attention to detail of younger generations who have been conditioned with ever increasing faster pace of life.

“Useless red circle” is there to accommodate both the shitty eyesight and impatience of older generations who have been accustomed to everything being handed to them on a silver platter.

Generalizing generations is fucking stupid.

I hate it because I have adhd. Shit like that makes it worse. Makes me feel like cattle.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 months ago

I'm not just justifying the use of red circle BTW, I'm just explaining as to why it's common these days in the age of Internet.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 4 months ago

I wanted to read this comment, but there was no circle showing me the most relevant info...

My wife is about half my weight. Guess I'll just get beheaded then.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 4 months ago (3 children)

Women are generally pretty capable of lifting twice their weight. Stand back to back and link arms (you may need to crouch) and if she leans forward and you tense your core and lift your legs you will end up directly over her center of gravity. It's essentially her lifting you like a backack. It isn't a super comfortable lift for the guy in the equation if he's got a weak core but we used to do this all the time at fight night. A teen girl who is maybe 120lbs soaking wet can easily pick up a 6'5 215lbs guy and walk down a city block with him on her back.

In period women were generally muscled as fuck. Fetching household water, hand milling grain for bread and doing laundry were female coded tasks on top of doing whatever yearly hard labour tasks were required. They would absolutely be trucking their favourite guy out of town even if he was big.

Cool. I'm sending my wife to the gym tonight.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Well everyone should probably be hitting the gym from time to time these days since activity in general has become kind of optional. Going as a couple can make for the best gym partners. Me and my partner have a good time.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 months ago

Now now. Let's not get carried away here!

Hard labor for survival's sake can put you above even athletes

I feel like we as a culture do not appreciate the raw physical potential of women. The whole "weaker sex" propaganda was way too successful. Like people have no idea what laundry actually used to entail. I am a history enthusiast and I got ropped into a recreation of a full Tudor washday for an Arts and Sciences competition in the SCA. Like I was working as a concrete former lifting and tying rebar for my job at the time and was stronger than about 70 percent of the folks in my group... But Holy fuck my muscles BURNED from weilding a paddle. Not just stirring but beating clothes with something like a cricket bat and then wringing bedsheets by winding them around posts. By the end of the day I was absolutely done in.

I was given an amazing cheesecake for my trouble in helping out for the task but the real take away was an appreciation for the washing machine that I will never forget.

This is so true. I basically carry boxes for a living and people tell me constantly that can't/shouldn't lift anything heavy. Too many women won't even try because they've been conditioned to think it's going to break them. One woman refused to lift anything heavy because she still wanted to have children. And by heavy i mean 12-25kg. We are not that fragile.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 months ago

Women can be strong and mentally superior to men. But saying women are weaker because of propaganda is just wrong.

https://boysvswomen.com/

Female oplympians aren't slower or weaker because men told them to be. Serena Williams lost vs rank 203 male tennis players during Williams' peak. There's plenty of strong women who could kick Tue average males ass. But has a higher baseline strength, and a higher threshold. If they didn't there would be more mixed competitions.

Is that why we call them ants?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 months ago

Don't knock it 'till you've tried it.

[–] [email protected] 18 points 4 months ago

That's right, men are far to heavy these days.

And here I thought that was made up by the writer of Ever After.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 months ago

I fucking love Ever After. It's my sick time movie

They do, theyve always just been panzer tank models. The problem is everyone today wants rabbits and passats
