Guest Snake McClain Posted July 18, 2013 Report Share Posted July 18, 2013 I always hit the frank before the beans. same here. I actually tag myself somewhat regularly when doing deadlifts (usually speedy ones during the warm up). It is unpleasant. Link to comment

Guest Snake McClain Posted July 18, 2013 Report Share Posted July 18, 2013 So, is this going to be a place to just talk about health issues, or the lack of male representation in general? The Men's Only thread was to discuss (originally) situations of health, living and anything that related particularly or specifically towards men, by men, but is not limited to exclusively just men. the idea was if I wanted a place to discuss prostate cancer, my libido or why i don't feel very manly when the guy next to me is deadlifting 500+ pounds *coughCoreyDcough* i could come here and see if this was normal or not and what I can do to improve. We have discussed men's health, fashion, lifestyle, how to handle certain familial relationships, dating, breaking up, death, juggling, hat wearing, monty python, pro wrestling and I think once we discussed how cool neil degrasse tyson is. (okay that last one i made up just now. SO the long and short is, if you have a weiner and balls (or even if you don't but you feel more relatable to those who do) then join in the conversation and reel free to talk about anything (almost) that you like.

guest439437484421 Posted July 19, 2013 Report Share Posted July 19, 2013 So, I've decided, and with some insistence from my girlfriend, to stop being friends with my ex. Just flat out stop talking to her. She mentally and emotionally abuses me. She yells at me when it's not necessary, she always makes herself out to be the victim, when there either isn't a victim or it's really me, etc. etc. I keep telling myself that she's not all bad, but to be honest i shouldn't have to put up with the crap that she doles out to me. She doesn't' treat anyone else that way, just me. So, yeah. I'm depressed about it for some reason, but it's the right decision.
