One of my friends told me it helped him navigate through cars better, which doesn't make sense, because they are smaller than his shoulder width...

The cinellis aren't chopped, thank god, but they certainly aren't very long. Around 2-2.5 feet, I would say.

Yeah, I knew about Argon 18, their factory is about 1km away from me, which is pretty cool.

EDIT: by factory i mean offices.

Yeah, I never understood that. I navigate traffic just fine with my 41cm ergo drops.

[quote=Raayl;17517867]my new diet

Breakfast: 4 eggs (1 yolk, 4 whites) on 1 piece of whole wheat fiber+ toast
Early Lunch: Lunchmeat sandwich (same bread as above)
Lunch: Yogurt and cottage cheese
Late Lunch: 1 can of tuna and a baked potato (4 minutes in the microwave)
Dinner: 1 chicken breast 1 vegetable
Post Workout: Protein shake (12 oz skim milk 2 scoops whey protein)

the general rule of thumb is 6 meals a day, each with 1 protein and 1 carb (and 1 fruit or vegetable a day as well.)

1 protein = roughly a fist size of whatever i'm eating. so when I eat cottage cheese for my protein, I buy containers or use an amount that is roughly the size of my fist.

1 carb follows the same rule, as does vegetables and fruit.

I don't count calories or grams of protein, but I do avoid fat at all costs. IE not eating the yolk of eggs, peeling the skin off the chicken, etc.[/quote]
Brah, you're making me feel fat and disgusting for eating the way I do. :mad:

Not that I'm fat, but my diet is horrible.

[QUOTE=Raayl;17518548]exercising really won't do MUCH without a good diet

a good diet is the main reason people lack results[/QUOTE]

I eat well, just not a strict diet tailored for specific results. Just try and get a good variety and enough carbs before/after cardio.

I ride 44cm drops, and it pretty much fits my shoulder breadth. It's just plain silly to use less than that.

Pluperfect_Arson 09-20-2009 09:03 AM

Man, I finally threw up drinking 4loko last night. Way too much ****ing 4loko.

I still have another can left.

What is that ****? We don't have it here.

Going from the name I'm guessing it's premixed alcohol / energy drink and lots of young people drink it?

:amaze: 09-20-2009 02:57 PM

You know the smirnoff and gurana/pulse/elevate/vodka and caffeine piss we have here? The **** that makes your blood boil and your heart quake?

Like that but with malt liquor in place of vodka, is my understanding. Max. 2 per day kiddies, read the can.

I've said it before and I'll say it again. Alcoholic energy drinks are as stupid as that guy who used to run America.

[QUOTE=funkyhoney;17521287]I've said it before and I'll say it again. Alcoholic energy drinks are as stupid as that guy who used to run America.[/QUOTE]

Honestly, I used to drink Sparks all the time back in the day. I recently started going out to parties again, and 4loko is cheap and works.

I will probably go back to drinking vodka, though.

I find it funny I will drink alcoholic energy drinks, though, because I will not drink normal energy drinks. Caffeine makes me tired, and the sugar gives me a massive headache, but that all seems to disappear when alcohol is involved. **** yeah!

Also, Liam, what is this about you having an ex-wife? You are, like, 12.

funkyhoney 09-21-2009 12:21 AM

I find it funny how badly alcoholic energy drinks can damage your body and taste like complete **** AND cost 3 times what they're worth ALL AT ONCE.

Shamwow.

Pluperfect_Arson 09-21-2009 12:43 AM

Dude, I am feeling the effects from last night. I have, like, acid reflux at the moment from throwing up and ****. 4loko Watermelon does not taste too bad, though. Uvo, their grape flavor, tastes like ***; I have not tried Fruit Punch, but I have an unopened can next to me.

Also, you drink 23.5 fluid ounces for 2.50$, so it is not horribly wallet denting.

It is a party in a can.

I do not think it is any worse than people consuming copious amounts of energy drinks every day as it is.

I drank this alcoholic energy drink called High Gravity Core once, and it tasted like straight up chemicals. It was pretty disgusting.

funkyhoney 09-21-2009 01:19 AM

Mixing a depressant with several stimulants, both of which are dehydrating in nature, no I don't see any problems here.

Pluperfect_Arson 09-21-2009 02:02 AM

Nah, man, it is because mother****ers be actin' a fool.

Spaceman Spiff 09-21-2009 07:13 AM

So I finally found a band in Toronto that I like and really want to play some shows with. Check out At The End Of The World; it's my favorite of the songs they have up, but I do like all four of them. The band is called Datura.

I actually quite enjoyed that.

lol i don't get angry, esp not from mx

hat's off to you if you can do sets of 50 lbs in each hand

have you guys tried that alcoholic energy drink with thujone in it? I think it's called fours or something. sh*t gets you weird

Being angry is not fun anyway. :)

Also, I have not! Doing some research, it seems that thujone is in absinthe, but wormwood trees and other such trees/plants also contain it. I know 4LOKO contains wormwood oil, but I doubt it has the same effects. Four LOKO is US-only, though. They have another drink that originally started their line called Four MaXed, which is sold in both the US and EU, but the EU version contains absinthe and is spirit-based, unlike the US malt-based version according to the Wiki article.

200 tickets sold for our show on saturday so far. im opening with my Doom rap project WOR D.S. and my singer is following me with her solo project then our band is playing our album and new songs. This is going to ****ing rule.

Spaceman Spiff 09-21-2009 04:22 PM

That's cool. My band is playing a show on Thursday. I doubt it'll be very big, but I'm looking forward to playing live again. It's been 3 or 4 months since we last played a show.
