Yeah, well, I didn't spit my drink at the screen, but I figured it was witty enough that someone should have at least said "haha, that's reasonably witty".

The LOL emoticon gets thrown around this place for a lot less I tell you what.

I BOUGHT SOME KNIVES.

i had an appointment today to learn how to use the electronic system the YMCA has for its weight room. despite me telling the 60 year old dude there that I was only there to swim today and i just wanted to get registered with the computer and acquainted with the system, he keeps insisting that i go through their circuit.

so i figure what the fuck, i'll at least see what this is like on the off-chance i break my spine and hip in 9 places and need to use some machines.

there's a little LED screen that you have to crane your neck about 60 degrees to the side to see. you can't ever break eye contact with it because it lights up as you go through your range of motion and honks disapprovingly at you if you spend _less_ than 2 seconds moving in either direction. should you complete a full set of 12 reps, it then assumes you are done and don't need to do another. the old man helpfully explained to me then that broscience has proven that performing more than 1 set of a lift is completely unnecessary because you recruit the same muscle fibers each time if you wait between sets; but if you wait for only 15 seconds, you use a completely different set of new magic muscle fibers that will help you lift bigger next time. the more you know!

we're done after a 6-machine circuit. he reassures me that today it might seem like we spent a lot of time in there (25 minutes tops), but now that i know how to use the machines, I can be in and out of there in 15 minutes.

then at the end of this all, i mention to him that there's not enough room in the freeweights section to do olympic lifts or even deads. he recommends i use the squat rack for that.

i guess this is all funnier if you know anything about weightlifting.

Dude, Choj, are you going to become one of those guys who becomes so obsessed with weightlifting and exercise that they end up building 300 pounds of muscle and as a result look much stupider than they did back when they were fat?

Aaaahhh...
dude, that made me imagine the guy with the giant arms he got from steroid usage. It was on that special "The man whose arms exploded."

Well, Choj won't become that guy, so yay.

I went to a shitty fair today and couldn't figure out for a moment why I kept thinking of Darkvare.



I also saw this.

Fixed.

Also, when you work out do you listen to Randy Orton's theme song?

Esuohlim Aug 15th, 2010 02:48 AM

Man, by the end of the movie Benjamin Button looked like me >:

Love that last photo.

I also love shitty fetés and rubbish "theme parks". Places where you trudge through a muddy field for five minutes to pay $15 to get a glimpse of an oversized paper maché strawberry, (a local favourite). Or a mysterious, cloth covered doorway I saw in Scotland, advertised as "Scotland-land" and only cost ten P to walk through... the other side being Scotland. I've been to a local zoo full of all manner of bizzare and exotic animals, with favourites including sheep and a very slender german shephard chained up in the carpark.

If you like that sort of stuff (which I think you do), then you'd enjoy the book Bollocks to Alton Towers, which is a collection of such places in the UK

no. i'm pretty close to my goals as aesthetics are concerned. i'd rather be 180 lbs than 250 pounds for a variety of reasons, one of which is that most actual weightclasses are in the former range.

i usually listen to it before i lift to put me in the mood to wreck some shit. while i'm lifting i listen to pandora radio on a station patterned after metallica.

So I just found out after trawling through Wikipedia that there's gonna be a film adaptation of The Yiddish Policeman's Union by the Coen Brothers. I'm a happy camper.

Kitsa Aug 15th, 2010 04:21 PM

I was working outside all day and it was a very humid 90 degrees. I feel like I've been steam-cooked.

Tonight, I decided that I'm going to get my hair shaved into a mohawk within the month.

Chojin Aug 16th, 2010 01:24 AM

that should bring all the girls to the yard.

Chojin Aug 16th, 2010 02:31 AM

today's carb load:

1 box of kix
1/2 bag of pretzels
1 bag of chips
1 bag of goldfish
4 bagels
1 tub of fat free cream cheese
1 box of instant potatoes
1 cup of instant macaroni
1 bowl of plain steel-cut oats

6422 kcal | 108g fat | 1194g carb | 181g protein
100g fiber | 101g sugar

my goal for these days is 5900kcal | 62g fat | 1187 carb | 158 protein, but i'm finding it nearly impossible to get that many carbs without getting fat and protein in the process.

Chojin Aug 16th, 2010 03:21 AM

also, my face when i put a cup of instant macaroni into the microwave but forgot to add water, and then checked on it 3 minutes later to find a pile of black ash on the tray:

After reading what Chojin eats... I feel like I eat the worst crap.
