He is so egotistical he probably thinks he is still at peak performance.

Dont cheap out too much, really cheap ones have terrible mechanisms which will make you not want to use it. They are big, heavy and kick your arse exercise wise so they tend to get sold second hand quite often. Much better off buying a used higher end machine than a brand new cheap one.

Concept 2s are very popular in gyms.

Like this guy has a point they dont have a duty of care, they didnt take an oath, they are a private for profit company with shareholders. They will absolutely take as much as they can, give you as little as they can and be as cunty about it as they can get away with.

Its fucking WRONG but its not surprising.

I exaggerated to make a point. Ive never argued that as a rule and in general whole foods arent probably healthier and SHOULD make up the bulk of a diet.

But like any of those rules the layman often interprets them in the absolute worst way possible, sometimes on purpose. Like somehow home made brownies with shitloads of real butter and raw sugar are somehow going to be better for you than a protein bar from a reputable manufacturer.

Or take Yoghurt for example, if you see "Milk, cultures," on the ingredients people say "yep, yoghurt is healthy" but if you saw "Milk, scientific name of the bacteria in the culture people would have wildly different thoughts. Just because something was made in a factory and contains "Di-hydrogen monoxide" (yes I know, exaggeration) doesnt mean diddly. People who take this stuff seriously learn how to read nutrition labels.

Id say The best 10 episodes are some of the greatest prime time comedy ever made. Theres probably another 20 or 30 episodes with jokes, arcs or bits that are also comedy gold with a fair bit of filler. But theres 172 episodes...

But I also defend Big Bang Theory as "6 seasons of a good and funny show, dragged out over 12" so maybe I'm just easily amused.

I fucking hate Gossip Girl.

I'm also a 40yo man... so... that tracks.

No see, if you put that in there you are obviously inciting violence.

"CEOs before Schools" I can stand there with a straight face and talk shit about how Libertarian policies are the best thing for the nation and that liberals waste money on dance and music classes for kids who should be learning a trade...

Whey Protein powder is "ultra processed", Cheetos are also ultra processed, multivitamins could be considered ultraprocessed, so can twinkies.

Just because its gone through a machine and into your body doesnt make it bad for you. I can wreck a giant slab of well made pork belly probably still worse for my health than my protein bars.

Thats exactly how I feel "Its sad that this is looking like the solution"

Like, it had to come to this? You couldnt just set up your little racket and keep the golden goose fat and happy? Or atleast adequately provided for and left alone?
