Oramac Posted March 11, 2014 Report Share Posted March 11, 2014 It's a mathematical equation.... %OnTopic=1/(2*pi*pages).... as the pages get higher, you're chance of being on topic get closer and close to 0.... So being a nerd, I ran the numbers. Kinda surprised nobody else did before me. Anyway, according to that equation, as of page 89, this thread had a .178% chance of being on-topic. 1 "Someone ever tries to kill you, you try to kill 'em right back." - Captain Malcolm Reynolds Current Challenge Also, I Agree With Tank™ Link to comment

I-Jo Posted March 12, 2014 Report Share Posted March 12, 2014 Since moving from a Planet Fitness to a Powerhouse, my amusement has decreased. However, my pain and suffering has increased. indoubitably. I got wrangled into a powerlift meet within 2 months of joining. I guess I'm kind of a beer snob; I see nothing wrong with this.yeah that's not to bad- 10/12 $ per 4 pack is about my cap. That's cheap for good beer. I'm a big fan of Gulden Draak, and that costs $19.99/4-packyeah- that's to much for me. I like mediocre beer well enough and I just don't savor it enough. I'm a huge fan of Yuengling or the lager clan. I have spent 12 on the big Noble Rot by Dogfish head- but that's about 3 for me- so more than enough. Depends on what it is and if I've had it- I'm such a cheap ass LOL. I like all my wine 10 or less- but I'll splurge for a t 15$ bottle once in a blue moon Link to comment

That's really dangerous and is making me nervous". Luckily I was standing next to two employees, who basically replied "Those are dynos. That's how you're supposed to do it."

Generally both feet will leave the rock face and return again once the target hold is caught.

Raev Posted March 14, 2014 Report Share Posted March 14, 2014 Not at the gym but happened at work: Sitting in the lunchroom comparing notes with another guy that lifts. We were comparing protein, carbs, calories etc when a third coworker asks "If you are both lifting heavy and trying to get stronger, why such a difference in calories?" We both answer at the same time - "We are eating to support different goals". That amused me. 2 level 4 Gnoll warrior STR 6|DEX 5|STA 4|CON 5|WIS 5|CHA 2 Building a better Raev, part 1.
