Gymnastics really fucked me up lol
You make me feel lucky I swam in high school and didn't wreck my body in my youth. That said, if I ever have kids, they're probably going to swim too. Chlorine aside, swimming has so many benefits.
gymnastics is fucked up, exercise isnt. its just football is also fucked up so i guess people draw that conclusion fast

Swimming dabest.
That said I wish I lived close to mountains so I could have my kids grow up skiing like I did. So many good memories on blues as a kid.

SC's homeshow is this weekend
promo video:
This is one thing I will definitely miss being a part of.
I think I want to try modding some 40k models to save on money, but I'm really scared of cutting pieces :S
Specifically I could mod a Praetorian/Lychguard box + an Immortal/Deathmark box to make 5x Immortals and 5x modded Crypteks for an overall $47 savings over buying a Immortal/Deathmark box and 5x Cryptek boxes. I could probably make them into Lords as well with the right bitz.
I want to but I don't want to mess up
Edit: Actually I think I have all the leftover bitz from my last batch of Immortals so I just need to buy a Praetorian/Lychguard box for Lords/Crypteks.

OH WELL SORRY we're not all muscled up gymnastic perfect bod hunks like you Soniv, even if you are a Springfieldian.
I'm not that muscular bro. We've gone over (in this thread) how I'm 5'11" ~150 lbs.
I am (or at least, used to be) very fit, but was never jacked.
From what I remember from high school, gymnasts were a lot like swimmers in that regard. You'd get very fit and have a good body shape, but you don't really get swole in a sport that requires lean muscle and doesn't focus too much one one muscle group.
That said most gymnasts I knew were fucking strong as hell despite that and could pick me up with one hand despite looking like half a football player. Male cheerleaders too.
It differs a bit once you hit college - people tend to specialize more in the events they're good at. So someone who specializes in Rings will generally get huge in college, while someone who specializes more on high bar or p-bars will usually be taller/skinnier (because it provides better swing).
Of course, there are some tanks who are good at floor and vault. The Army team (West Point) had a guy who was like my height, but probably weighed 250? Absolute monster of a guy. One home meet, he was on floor. First pass - double front. As he lands, you hear a ridiculous crunch. He destroyed his knee, but also broke our floor. He tried to keep going through his routine, but thankfully couldn't. He was out for a while after that one.
A crunch? Holy shit, that's disgusting. As a bio major, I cringe at the thought of the human body failing like that. asdf
Oh man, you should a regular college practice. So many injuries and close calls.
I've seen some terrifying stuff. Sophomore year I watched my captain peel off the rings and break his C4 spinous (spelling?) process. He got up and walked away (but after being swarmed by our ATs, was quickly tossed on a gurney and brought to the hospital). He was competing in ECACs like 3 months later.
One gymnastics practice is enough to see that the human body is insane.
When I was in high school I was dating a girl on the gymnastics team and went to a meet of hers. It was horrifying. In high school, they were just "good" enough that they could do shit that would break them to pieces but still so mediocre at the sport overall that it appeared that they would not survive any jump. A particular offender was the vault; every time I saw a head miss it by millimeters my entire body clenched.

Well, my friend just got a PC (he's been a laptop user forever) and when I told him I was thinking of upgrading one of my monitors he offered to buy the other off me. I'm seeing him tomorrow so I figured I'd bring it with and then go get one of my own shortly after, but I guess I could just sit on one until Black Friday, not too traumatic.
I'm not really a snob but I wasn't really looking to go anywhere over $200 at most, probably more shooting in the $100-150 range.

Just go for it. You'll probably mess up the first one, but just don't go soloqReq mode on it and treat it as a learning experience. I modded WH:LotR when I was like 14 with trash supplies. I'm sure with real income you could buy real tools and real materials.

In the $100-150 range you won't get anything new that's special. Pretty much all monitors are the same between the major brands (Dell, ASUS, Samsung). Even lower tier ones like AOC aren't that bad because they're all "good enough" and if you were looking for "phenomenal" you'd be in a different price bracket. Look for a monitor that fits your needs (matte vs glossy, how much do you care about a thick bezel, do you care about the defautl stand or VESA mounting, what inputs do you need) and don't worry so much about panel type.
If you want to buy refurb, there are some excellent IPS panels in that range. There may also be some 23" ASUS IPS panels just hovering $150
Also butterfly #1 I did 100 fly in high school get all da ladies

I disagree. With a well made team, you should always have outs and ways to beat other people. There's also a lot of mind games in predicting or baiting moves and switches.
