We are living in an era with an abundance of boring modelling pics.
Seems like every instagram model takes the same boring style pic with flat lighting.
Yes they are hot but the composition , art direction, lighting etc is average and a generational step backwards.

I have a CD - 'Diesels through the decades' - which I tickled me as such things do whe you're in your early twenties, so bought it. I used to take it to friends' houses when we used to play video games and smoke all day, and I'd quietly stick it on their hifi or whatever and just leave it playing 'til someone went like "what the fuck IS that noise?!".Oh, what a japer am I.
.
I also found a plastic bag of really horrid porn mags in a shitty pub in Newcastle whiilst high on acid - one of which I'd take and just leave under settee cushions or whatever, at friend's houses, at friend's houses, for later discovery.
The larks.
- "Did I fucking stutter, monospaced?!"
Yes, yes I did.Nairn - huh?monospaced
- I stuttered. I made a reference to one of the only comments that's made me LOL here recently (scarabin), you turned up and didn't get the connection.Nairn
- Hahaha all ‘round :)Gnash
- LOL
To be fair, you have to have a very smooth brain to understand the reference.palimpsest - Now now, the only person allowed to use that insult here is face_melter...Nairn

- From you, given sarcastically, I take that as a huge compliment.Nairn
- @drgs - second one in my life. First was when I was about 8. Older kids were in Awe and The Cool One let me shoot his blank-firing gun as a reward (no innuendo)Nairn

- I *might* still have one somewhere - an issue of 'Leg Sex'. Friends and I turned it into a game, so it got swapped in ever-more curious hideyholes.Nairn
- I memba keeping it for posterity (honest!). Might have thrown it out last move, when I moved in with 'er indoors and finally becoming vaguely adult.Nairn

I tried doing a search to see if this was mentioned anywhere but I couldn't find it. Man would it ever be helpful to pin threads to appear at the top of the list.
Or even if not pinning, just like highlighting them so when you scan through the list you can see them easily. Hmm.. I wonder if I could do some custom CSS or something to do that...... . . . .
- And then you could've pinned this!

Yesterday was so great. I brought my boys 6 & 8 down to the lake to go skating and "play hockey". We brought our sticks and a puck and we would meet some neighbors and just goof around. I played hockey as a kid and my kids are learning (and improving).
We got onto the ice and saw some other guys looking to start a game so if they were okay with my kids playing, then we'd all join. There were two 50+ year old Polish dudes, a young high school stud, and a few other guys who clearly still play in mens leagues so the level of skill was up.
We played for over two hours with me holding my own, even scoring a few goals, and my kids did great. The best part was I would pass to my kids and everyone would back off and let them skate up to the goal and shoot. I was really touched by that and it was a really memorable day.
I'm so unbelievably sore today that it's laughable. Groaning every time I get up from a chair but it was so worth it.- Lucky you, you and your sons will remember this day forever.OBBTKN
- That sounds like a bloody good day.slappy
- That is life well lived.shapesalad
- awesome!BaskerviIle
- I used to get to play with grown ups when I was a kid. And I always thought to myself "look how good I'm doing, I can totally hold my own"bogue
- It's now clear that grown ups were making some room for a little kid to feel good about themselves and be stoked about the game.bogue
- I bet those kids of yours won't forget yesterday anytime soon. I know I can still picture those sessions 30 years later.bogue
- Lovelymort_
- amazing, I jwas just saying how much I wanted to do this with my kids as well, the conditions are perfect this year,_niko
- Old time hockey. Like Eddie Shore.JackRyan
- That's an unbelievably great experience! Been in and out of beer league hockey for close to 15 years now, but here in Southern California I do roller hockey...nocomply
- Bringing the boys to open skate time at the outdoor roller hockey rink isn't quite the same.nocomply
- thanks for sharing the story! sounds like a great day on ice, specially for dad. parents deserve worry free days like these!api

I like Camus.
Kierkegaard was a slut.
- coolpango
- Kierkegaard actually believed that the only true love was self-sacrificial, which is why he forbade himself to be with the love of his life.garbage
- He chickened out because he thought he would eventually bore of the sex.********
- I had never heard of Camus. The other philosophers of course, but not Camus.cherub

Navigating screen time with kids during lockdown is really tricky. Reading some other kid's perspectives in this article is interesting and a little reassuring that it's ok, especially if you hear laughing and chats coming from their bedrooms.

stoplying inspired me share more skating related content. We're in a pretty heavy lockdown here in Ontario Canada, and it's -22 outside. So this just made sense. First rink I've ever built. Kids are happy, I'm happy, everyone's happy. This took some serious effort to put together, and some additional serious effort to maintain. Well worth said serious effort.

- what is the best age for kids to start ice skate? i was today with my wife and it was fun. i think i have to replay before i am ready to go with the kids.api
- api, the earlier the better. And start with hockey skates, not figure skates. Make sure they're warm and get em some knee or elbow pads and have at itstoplying
- yup.. I'd echo that. I think my parents had me on a pair of skates at age 3. We did the same with our daughter. If it doesn't make them happy than back offbogue

My accent must be stronger than I think - for some reason I've had two Scots people over the last couple of days ask me whereabouts in Scotland I'm from - to which I've apologised and said that not only was I not born there, I've never technically lived there either, which was met with furrowed, slightly disbelieving brows.
I'm used to English or foreign people asking, but not Scots. I've always thought I had quite a mongrel tongue.
.
Oh, to admit that my Father sent me to elocution lessons when i was a kid, so as to get rid of my emerging Geordie accent, haha.
- what you went to a scots elecutionist? (or whatever these people are called?)
or did he just force you to read burns aloud?hans_glib - A Scottish She, and no - it was more learning to recite poems and shit like "my father's car is a jaguar".Nairn
- (this was in a school in The Borders, so it kind of makes sense. My dad isn't a pretentious twat - he just saw an opp. within the curriculum to stem Geordieism)Nairn
- I'd never understand a word you're saying then. my brain can't process scot accents. i need subtitles. lolsea_sea

- Call in sick. People seem to call in sick because "they feel poorly" "have a headache" or "stomach hurts".shapesalad
- sick used to mean I can't go to the office, but now nobody goes anymore, so they can still work :/monospaced
- calling in sick should be allowed still, just to step away, especially if you feel poorly or have a headache. you earned it :)monospaced
- That’s what makes it worse continuity. Given the current state of the world should feel lucky to have work. Thanks for the reality check.thumb_screws
- Of course i'm grateful for a job. Just as I am grateful that I have a brain but still doesn't mean I enjoy headaches. Anyway, I'm feeling more positive today.Hayzilla

Advice needed:
If you had a product / business idea that felt really viable, but didn't have the ability to bring it to life on your own, how cautious would you be in sharing the idea with someone who might be able to help or offer guidance?
I've got something that's been kicking around for a while, reached out to some friends to see if anyone knew someone in that space, and got connected with someone that can help in a discussion.
Anything specific I can do aside from sending people an NDA to protect my idea? I'm not going to share it here; just trust me it's better than shoe boxes...
- Depends upon how 'moated' it is and how much I trust the people I'd share it with. I'd NOT rely on an NDA.Nairn
- so whats the idea?
;)GuyFawkes - Post it in the million-dollar ideas thread.********
- It's nothing without execution, so you might as well drop the NDAsgrafician
- Having been on the other side of that, if you don't give enough info, nobody will take you seriously.monNom
- Figure out the thing(s) that make it difficult to copy and veil those behind "proprierary" process, technology, recipes, etc.monNom
- But you've got to be able to discuss the general business idea with people if you hope to make it work.monNom
- And if you don't have anything proprietary, you're in for a lot of competition anyway.monNom
- From my experience being around investor types. They won't sign an NDA just to take a meeting.monNom
- Facebook will copy your idea regardless anywaygrafician
