Also, I wouldn't jump the gun on seeing a doctor unless the pain is really not going away. Of course, I also think going to a doctor is very frequently a waste of money, so maybe don't listen to me too much. Especially if you have good healthcare.

I don't have a specific reason to get back to exercising myself constantly, really, its just that there are things in life that demand stamina enough to do repeated movements constantly, at different rates and under different positions for more than one hour, so a bit of extra stamina can be quite helpful :v

I could get free healthcare, as far as I know, I'd just have to go to a government clinic with an overworked doctor, an insanely long queue and nauseating, horrific, abyssal hygiene. It's incredible in some places. So I go to the doctors that will charge me R320 (~$30) to tell me that yes, I do indeed have <whatever I'm there for> and that yes, they can and will prescribe <whatever I've gone there to get a prescription for>. It bothers me on principle.

Meh. Makes no difference to my weight anyway. I don't put on anything, so all's good. Might help with muscle strength, but that's not really a big concern I have.

I do it because noodle limbs look terrible, mainly. Also because general health, hockey, archery, hiking.

Now why does that statement seem so lewd...  ::)

Because you are unfamiliar with the datum that the average session of, ahem, full-contact friendship, lasts about seven minutes?

Ahhh, exercise. How I loathe and avoid you.

Most exercise I ever did was when I was learning to row. Stuck with it because it was fun.

Honestly why don't we just discover more active fun activities? Versus more boring ways to make exercise even worse?

I'd probably swim everyday if I could.

Another example is the 100 monkeys effect. The theory is that Japanese "scientists" (who? when?) discovered that once 100 monkeys discover something, the concept becomes embedded in the universal unconscious and all monkeys can do it. I've met actual people who believe in this for real.

Nah familiar, & still sounds lewd.

Probably because we have. You named 1 right there, so did dwarfy above. I'd rather climb then lift weights. Seems to me plenty of people just think "I need to get fit, I should join a gym" without considering other options.

I feel like Anita Sarkeesian is now just someone who gets sent hate mail by trolls that she talks about, and that's the only thing she does anymore.

It is more that at this point no one cares about a single thing she has to say, only that she is a victim.

Since to my knowledge she is still creating content... but unlike before where people took her somewhat seriously, controversial but seriously, now people just kind of see her as a joke and her opinions asinine.

Well not really. She comments on stuff that happens but she's not even bothering to make up harassing twitter accounts any more. Not like it matters, she's already made her shekels.

I am kind of glad she isn't around anymore (well not glad of the circumstances that caused it mind you).

The brought forth only the worst unprogressive garbage back into gaming while basically exciting the actual sexists to action and pretty much dooming the reputation of feminism to any 'gamer' out there who even cared about the issues.

I will always defend her right to her views. Heck I probably wouldn't be so harsh on her if she was at least clear and honest in expressing them.

The only exercise I've ever liked is bicycling, and I try to put in a few hours each week.

Oh man, it sure did, after a while you kinda create resistance and it starts to become more and more elaborate, to the point that your physicial endurance starts being tested. Few things are stranger than the female body and its seemingly magical ability of obtaining multiple climaxes :v

I just realised I haven't seen The Merchant of Menace for a while. A look at his profile says he was last on about a month and a third ago, but he hasn't posted in over a YEAR.

Wonder why.
That's miss Merchant of Menace to you. Not a he.
