Or it's the fitness commercials targeting people they think need or will use their product?


It's very intimidating to see super in shape people working out for those that aren't in shape. When they see people who look like them working out, they're more likely to go for it.

the point is, no one wants to see fat ugly people in skimpy tights, so why is that what we are getting?

Well the dude comes on here and trolls constantly. Is it too much to ask for him to show his work? Most of my out of shape friends are not intimidated at all by anyone in the gym.

Oh no, you're right. If it hasn't happened to you or someone you know personally, it doesn't exist. Flawless thinking here.

Well that proves it. Every single person who isn't in shape is intimidated by someone who is.

No sense in arguing. You made an all or none statement. I was just saying that not all are intimidated.

Edit: Good data though. I'm glad I was able to get you to take time out of your day for research.

This was absolutely not an all or none.

I've avoided for the week of Ron Swanson touching peepees bickering and then came back to people arguing about planet fitness tropes during the apocalypse.

Had to go back 2 pages to figure out how we got here.

FTR, the same actress was the leader of the group in yellowjackets as well, no?

Bella Ramsey - I'm gender fluid


"Gender fluid" has gotta be near the top of the current nonsense list when it comes to all this trans crap. Seems like gender fluid is the gay version of being agnostic. In other words, it's a cop out. Get to remain your actual gender but basically suggest "sometimes I'm not. See, I'm unique too!"

yall do realize if no one replied to him he would stop posting, right?

I've had this discussion on countless game threads, when a negative nancy shows up just to complain about the team or the coaching.

They get blasted by the other posters for being a jerk (and they are absolutely being jerks), but we then get the inevitable 200 replies from the jerks defending themselves, and then a ton of people piling back on to say 'No, you're just being an ass like you are all the time,' which generates more replies.

Both sides keep it going. I've already mentioned on this thread we should just ignore them and I got immediately met with "We shouldn't call out hate/bigotry?!?!"

Yes, by all means, call them out. I'm sure they'll shape right up immediately.

Every generation finds its way to rebel.

Kids and young adults are gonna hop on the 'choose your own gender' bandwagon as long as it generates any kind of attention/controversy.

In Bella's case, though, she might be on to something. She looked like a pretty normal kid in GoT but she looks really strange these days.

I keep posting about the show to try to get things going. But you people find a way to veer back into dumb stuff.

Here's another: Would a high rise still stand after 20 years with zero maintenance. My guess is yes.

Question is impossible to answer without my expert review of the blue prints, site plans, and all approvals and permits associated with the specific high rise prior to construction. Additionally, I'll need a Phase I and II environmental test to test the soil. I also need a survey. Then I'll let you know.

Cmon HBO? Wtf? Why isn't this available on the website?

How much structural maintenance do you think is going on normally?

I would say absolutely, as long as not exposed to elements, the infrastructure would stay intact.

Depends. Did a woman design the high rise?

Yeah I don't know how much maintenance is taking place to keep the Empire State Building from just falling over.

Examples? I'd be curious to check out something like that.

I love abandoned buildings/places.

The Baker Hotel in Mineral Wells was abandoned for 40 years before someone bought it and fixed it up. Several in Midland.

Detroit has a ton, including the Book Tower.
