Going to see Orbital tonight in Glasgow, but got home for a bit after work and I really want to get comfy and stay home.
Once we're there it'll be tops but at the moment it's damp and cold and there's been a bad crash on the M8.- lolwhatthefunk

When you go to the doc and he says you'll have diabetes before you know it if you don't lose weight and start eating healthier,
PS It's a lot easier pulling on your socks and shoes when you ditch 12kg! About 3 to go...
- If I had to lose 12kg, I’d be 58kg which is a bit light for a middle aged man.shapesalad
- Bravo for losing 9kg.zardoz
- Lost 12kg...need another 3. Farken ballooned out to 97kg...was a fat cunt.BusterBoy
- Prob could go to 80kg...which is what I weighed when I was 18...but I'd probably look like I was sick.BusterBoy

Solo buckets at the court on the end of my block. I was bricking like crazy. I'm talking back rim, back rim, back rim. Basketball is one of my "I've been doing this since I was 5" skills.
So signs I'm getting old? I measured my hands after a 4am session just because I had the yips.
Yes my hands are disgusting, I already know this. I'm only 6'1", but somehow I have the same handspan as Kawhi.
- i have absolutely no idea what you're talking about. signs i'm already oldhans_glib
- lol, I just woke up to shoot some hoops before walking the hounds, and sucked so bad that thought "are my hands shrinking?"garbage
- Are all your body parts proportional knowwhatimsayindrgs

- ^ lol. Handspan is a pretty big measurable when it comes to scouting. I was losing my handles / gathers so hard this morning that I walked back home..garbage
- ..and measured my hand. Then I looked at the photo and though "Oh god, that's an old hand."garbage
- Scouting? Handles? Gathers? WTF are you on about?Continuity
- Prompt?utopian
- my hands always feel like they are small when I hold my cock. But never when I hold balls. wait what..hydro74

It's like you're trying to explain to us how a plumbus is made.palimpsest - was waiting for this to be animated with the knife poking between the fingers.Krassy

- This is one of the weirdest things I've seen on QBN. It's not only the picture, which is already a lot, but the attempt to justify posting it.palimpsest
- And this is coming from a guy who posted a self-portrait with a piss jar and banana for (color) scale.palimpsest
- lol, handles are how you dribble, a gather is how you pick up the dribble for a shot. The justification for posting is..garbage
- ..I used to be really good at basketball, and I fucking suck now.garbage

We had one of my baby momma's colleagues over the other night. As he was checking out our bookshelf he saw a Miles Davis book so he asked me if I was a fan. He then asked me if I had ever seen Miles in concert. I wanted to laugh but I'm glad I kept my mouf shut. This dude, now in his late 60s, had seen him twice. I don't think he took the time to do the math, he just considered me one of his peers.

When you hate Discord.
- What's Discord?lemmy_k
- Opened it once, guess I am well into the "already old" categoryformed
- For someone who has been through icq, msn, irc, skype, myspace, facebook etc, there is an underlying intuition that discord too shall pass, there is no pointdrgs
- in investing time in itdrgs
- ICQ and MSN. Good god.Continuity
- It's not about the platform, it's about the people.

When your 2 year old goes from calling you ‘daddy’ to just ‘dad’
- Wait to call you... sirOBBTKN

On principle I will no long pay for haircuts or car mechanics and instead do both myself. I look like shit and my cars are in a perpetual state of unroadworthiness.
But my kids are happy I guess.
- I shave my head, now. I did, however, find a good mechanic. My wife says the hair looks good, so that's all that matters at this age.lemmy_k
- Bought hair clippers at the start of UK lock down. Used them ever since.comicsans
- I used some blunt kitchen scissors at the in-Laws to chop my hair down at Christmas. When MiL saw she complimented me "You're not right, are you?"Nairn
- Last year I put my clippers I'd used for a decade away and bought an electric head shaver. Magic, I wish I'd done it sooner. I use it every 3 days, but it takesskinny_puppy
- ... 5 minutes and there's no mess, no hassle. Can do it as you're headed out the door if you need a quick shave.skinny_puppy
- I cut my own hair during the lockdown, it came out fine, but I spent 2 hours at each sessiondrgs
