You can do nothing wrong and still be disliked by someone.

Or as Daddy Picard said: "You can do everything right and still lose. It is what it is."

Real quote:"It is possible to commit no mistakes and still lose. That is not a weakness. That is life."

Don't put off something you need to do because tomorrow their will always be something else.

Don't put your dick in anything you don't want to wake up next to

You have to work out to be good at sex.

Buy a waterbed. One thrust, and the swells take care of the rest.

Not true, you just have to know how to move to keep the momentum good, stamina is more important than working out, also foreplay also does a lot

Are you another dad overhearing my conversation with my offspring and interjecting with this observation?

Are you pantomiming when you say stamina?

What are your hand gestures when you stay foreplay?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Do you think stamina and coordination grow on trees?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

There's a difference between just working out and building stamina

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

There are many workout regimens. How do you build stamina without doing anything that would be considered working out? Jogging is working out.

I think it's an important distinction to be made though

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

What distinction? No one mentioned strength training, they just said working out. You don't build stamina without working out. What distinction are you talking about?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

When most people think working out, they think lifting weights, so I think the distinction of stamina training should be mentioned

Your problem is you're in love. You're too young to be in love. There's too many putas out there.

This is a common saying, but I heard it from my Dad first:

Never cheap out on things that separate your backside from the ground.

He was specifically talking about tires and brakes on a car, but it's good advice all the way around.
