    This is a good point actually. I do look at people in wheelchairs since I would want that also.

    And kids, they always stare at me too.

    Dont worry, you picked hard mode this time in the game of life. I think it also gives greater rewards at the end.





  • Love your comment. I felt the same but it was after 9/11 so its been a while. Evil is all around us, I agree with that. But you also have good in some people. They just arent interested in control and power, which is why the world feels evil.

    Im not American so I dont think of the American dream as more then necessary hope to cope in a society where you are supposed to identify with your title at work, and always wanting more. Its just a dream and often a nightmare to most people living in the US. That pressure to be successful because even your family cares about it must be difficult.

    Im definently into escapism myself. I started with computers in my teens to escape the daily life that felt meaningless. Became good at it, got good jobs. But Im still myself and I never became a npc unable to think for myself.

    But I do believe that it matters what we do here in this realm. There are a lot of evil people, but the good ones outnumber the bad ones with millions to one. They just dont have any power to change things.

    Most people still think they can vote and change things but you can ask anyone in their 50s how that works out for you… :)




  • Yeah I exercised with only my body weight for many years. I was pretty fit. Now I started going to the gym and one thing I discovered was that i never exercised certain muscles before. I had wide arms but small shoulders. This is because at home, you usually dont have all the equipment to exercise all parts of the body.

    This may be fine though. For me it was fine for many years. But now I wanted a larger upper body and that means shoulders and back and biceps.


  • Have you seen a woman? Their bodies are different, clothes are cut differently. What the hell man. Im surprised this is a serious post. :)

    How are you going to go into a shop and get clothes for your “body shape” in the scenario that there are no male or female clothes?

    You can do this if you custom order a suite from a tailor but not when you shop for sweaters in the shop…

    There are a million things that only women wear also.
