- Comment on I suffer tragedy every night 19 hours ago:
No, it’s the worst when you’re asleep, but your consciousness is suddenly slammed awake by the sound somewhere in the house of, “Guk guk guk … gluurk!”
- Comment on My next door neighbor is trying to lose a 100lbs. But having real problems getting his breathing under control when exercising. Is there like a breathing exercise he can do everyday to improve? 1 day ago:
Middle aged fat guy here, but used to walk for exercise. Decent pace, about 5km per day. But one day, just after I started out, out of nowhere, I couldn’t seem to get enough oxygen. Well, it felt like I could get a full breath, but nothing was happening with it.
I stopped until I could ‘get my breath back’, then continued my walk with no problems.
Next time I went to the doctor, I told him about it. Various tests, etc. Turned out to be Atrial Fibrillation. It’s where the top half of your heart says, “Nah. Don’t feel like pumping blood today. You can just have it trickle down to the lower chamber”. Lower chamber fervently grabs what oxygenated blood it can to pump to the rest of the body.
Fortunately, able to be managed in my instance, with medication (though I did have a ‘cardioversion’, where they stop your heart for a beat to ‘reset’ it).
Given the severity it can take in others, I feel very fortunate mine is manageable.
Your friend might not have that, but they might. It’s an easy couple of tests to find out.
I’m still fat, but I’m still walking, and more often than not, I realise how good feeling like I’m getting enough oxygen is. Which is a nice little boost.

I haven’t heard a single Taylor Swift song, so I have no idea what this is. Ice cream and rice?

I hope for Bradley’s demise simply because whoever made that sign censored the word murdering.
- Comment on Keep Em Guessing 1 week ago:
That foot position undeniably pushes the pelvis forward, so he can smear his just-came-in pants all over the front part of the counter that other people have to lean on. Imagine a child, or a Vertically-Challenged Person, briefly leaning their tired head against that and wondering why their hair was sticky when they moved their head away. It’s not right, people. This is vile. And it’s people like this who make me afraid to go out in public. That and all the duendes.

A lot of smaller units in Australia are now being sold with no stove/oven, and only a microwave. Still, microwaves are pretty versatile.
