Wasn't trying to say anything derogatory, especially not to veterans. Not sure why you are taking it so personally. It's just an observation and opinion. Like when I see football and basketball clips from the 50's and 60's, they just move different than today's athletes.
Not sure if it's just me...but whenever I see old footage of anything like fighting, sports, etc. it just seems like they were less athletic and less coordinated back then than now.
As an Asian, I am offended by Ken Jeong and the roles he plays in films. I'd like to file a petition to have him banned from all forms of media.
Also, I am offended when co-workers find out I'm Korean...then every time they go to a Korean market or restaurant, they itemize what they ate or...
I am a fan of Colbert and I am Asian. I'll speak to this issue in a more general sense and not specifically about Colbert. I am all for this type of humor as long as the person making the joke is perfectly comfortable and willing to make such a joke about any race and stereotype. There are...
I recently purchased one as a gift for my mother. I fought her hard on it telling her that she won't have nearly as many uses as she thinks she will. After playing around with it for a while she started asking questions about if it can do this and that. I had to tell her again that it can't...
Don't get me wrong, I sort of can understand the concept of "functional" strength and some of the precepts of CrossFit seem to make sense. It's just annoying because the vast majority of the people, both the trained and trainers, do things in such a dumb and reckless manner that it's hard to...
Because of stuff like this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z0MuVsFKmrE
For me, it's because in a lot, if not most, of the cases people claim "crossfit"...when it really is just a way to justify cheating in order to put up bigger weights or do more low quality reps for the purposes of showing off.
Exactly, so don't even bother with stating it.
The problem with this approach is that if you don't clearly correct us and define what you mean things can't be moved forward. It makes it convenient for you to just sit back and just say "you are understanding incorrectly, read the thread...
I personally don't think they are necessary. If you practice control throughout the movement of an exercise it should accomplish the same thing. I forget what the exact term is but you know what I mean. For example, if you are doing dumbbell curls, do a slow controlled movement when bringing...
No, the sincerity and truthfulness about your desire to help others as the reason for your participation in this thread cannot be proven even if someone chooses to believe you. You are engaged in an argument with BikeJunkie about your supposed motives for the stance you are taking in this...
I'm just saying...some people like to keep saying "trying to genuinely help people" as if it's providing some kind of rock hard evidence. Again, I specifically said i'm not trying to insinuate anything. But you submitted your self-quote as some kind of proof or admissible fact. Nobody can...
Why I believe MLMs are wrong will probably be invalid to you because they are my own opinions and you will probably refute them as me being ignorant.
They seem to usually attract or target folks that are down on their luck and looking for an out
The company and the people who recruit...
I painted it in a bad light because often times attitude and determination are the only advice given without anything else. I liken it to when people are faced with various personal problems (financial, marital, etc.) and people tell them to pray more as the solution.
Doing what you want is...
Tweak...does it not, at face value, at all seem odd that if these products were so great then why are they using random ass people as their distribution system? Why don't they direct sell to the customers or use large retailers as distributors? You would think that a company like WalMart would...
Did I not just acknowledge that attitude and determination are some of the characteristics of successful people? I am saying it's bad when those are the proscribed solutions for problems people experience when they are not successful at an MLM. Grow your spirituality, attitude, or whatever all...
Your suggestions of support and positive attitude being the keys to success in an MLM are the types of things they say. You said earlier that someone who failed in an MLM most likely did not have the dedication. I am not saying that a positive attitude and commitment are not necessary things...
I'm gonna assume that this is Quixtar (basically Amway renaming themselves to get rid of the stigma). A key risk is the types of people she will be exposed to that are in the same scheme as your wife. They are an extremely brainwashed group with delusions of grandeur. They will eventually...
My worst teacher was my high school biology teacher. He was a total bore and kind of a dick...but the thing that clinched it for me was when he brought in his child's dried placenta and had the class pass it around. He also looked like Biff from Back to the Future.
