I confiscated my 10 year olds new Sublime shirt that his mother bought him and he wore to school today. The back graphic is basically a wreath of pot leaves with a magic mushroom in the center. Its a pretty cool shirt but maybe not for a 10 year old to wear to elementary school.
I'm truly turning into my father.- I remember when those things were feloniesbainbridge
- I waited until I was at least 19 to wear my NORML (National Organization to Reform Marijuana Laws) around my parents.
He and his mother were clueless!fooler - don't be your dad, give her something cool in exchange.********
- FLOL. No, that is very much not an appropriate item of clothing for a ten year old. Wut. Parents shouldn't buy that shit 'til at least 18 or so.Nairn
- My 8 and 11 year olds love blink-182. I took them to see blink and they got "Missionary Impossible" tour shirts.nocomply
- I told them they can wear them everywhere EXCEPT to school.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯nocomply - We did get asked to stop sending him to day care (in a church) with his Breeders T shirt years ago.fooler

You're ok buying clothes from Sainsburys [/insert unexciting mass market supermarket chain from your country].
To be clear, it's just t-shirts and grunts, but fuck, they last so much longer than more expensive shit.
I have about twenty blue t-shirts that comprise my daily uniform* and the ones from the Tu range have kept their colour and shape way better than the 'proper brand' stuff I have.

*Think more Giorgio Armani or Steve Jobs, rather than borderline autistic, ahem
- Sainsbos are good for plain unbranded jumpers too.PhanLo

Pain.
I posted this before in here but this is the ultimate sign you're getting old. Always having pain somehwere.
My back is destroyed, the last 2 months were not fun, it's getting better lately so i started going to the gym again, got on the treadmill and made 45min of inclined walk... Now my left hip hurt like a bicht.
- Aha. Learn to live with pain, it's the only sure thing that will accompany you until death ;)OBBTKN
- dude get a hanging station, do 1 minute dead hangs multiple times a day. it fixed my shitYakuZoku
- Certain CBD creams can actually be considered 'magical'...PonyBoy
- maybe start with 20 minutes of flat and work your way up. that’s the one thing i’ve been learning is that i need to increase my workouts incrementally.scruffics

God, I hate Christmas and everything about it. Maybe it’s the time that passes so fast as you get older (I am 49) and we are in this time of year again, like the last Christmas was last month.
- ... so repetitive, same everything ...fisheye
- we have a 4 yr old, she's gonna LOVE it, though I can't fob her off with the joy of a cardboard box to play with anymore lolGardener
- Sure, I have a 7yo girl, for them time is sooo slooooow ... for me it’s every couple of days there’s a weekend, and there’s a month, a year ...fisheye
- I've always felt this way about Christmas. It's a celebration of bad taste on every level: music, movies, sweaters, decorations, retail nightmares, etc.CyBrainX
- I like the slowing down, in northern Europe it was designed to stop people walking off into the woods to let the cold consume them in winter...PhanLo
- ...just not the coca-cola consumerism hellscape, but staying around the house isn't so bad.PhanLo
- Christmas means snow around here, and snow is beautiful, almost as beautiful as warming the hearts of loved ones with thoughtful giftscanoe

- Late onset type 1 here. You type 2 or 1?mort_
- Type 2... don't think death sentence(yet) but some serious immediate lifestyle changes needed to get my sky high blood sugar levels downdee-dubs
- Right. You want to go low carb. Protein and fat are your friends.mort_
- ^ already on it my friend :)dee-dubs
- Good man. I was misdiagnosed with t2 originally so went through all that, then they realised it was t1, so insulin and diet.mort_
- Exercise? Cycling helps a lot! My father has high blood sugar, but the doc told him that as long as he rides a bicycle, he doesn't need insulin.OBBTKN
- Oh fuck.

- Surely wine raises it..? no carbs but full of sugar.. but yeah.. sprits all good.. no sugar or carbs..dee-dubs

- Wine lowers it in my experience. Always test though.mort_

- Every time this thread gets bumped I get agitates because it's you're not your.
^ A sign I'm already old.Horp - The person who started it claimed he wrote "your" because of dyslexia. He also thinks liking Joy Division is a sign of age. He needs to face our tribunal.CyBrainX
