I was a swimmer in college (shocking I know given my name) and as such we are one of the only sports where the men’s and women’s teams are essentially the same. Train together, travel together, compete together, etc. The whole proximity thing is 100% true, especially with the stressful environment. Everyone hooked up with everyone else and at least 10 people are now married. We called it swimcest.
I remember 10 years ago and people thought I was odd for munching box. And now folks are out there sticking their tongues in dirt roads….we have come a long way as a society.
Cowboys fan and Paul Bettany? You’re a friend in my book. Also Wimbledon is such an under appreciated movie. I’ve seen it more times than I care to publicly admit, I don’t even like tennis.
I make weak dark and stormy’s on sundays. The rum hair of the dogs’ my hangover and the ginger beer settles my stomach (which is where my hangover hits the hardest)
I believe it’s pronounced diaabeetus. Besides maybe he is using light lemonade, possibly lemon juice and Splenda, but hopefully he is making his drink 95% vodka thus making the sugar negligible. You don’t know.
I have been doing 18:6 for the last 8 years and I love it. I also don’t have a gallbladder and eating before noon makes me sick but at this point I can’t imagine going back.
Seriously, it’s been 8 years. But I don’t think anyone of us past a certain age really want to be the college degenerates we were again, but rather miss the freedom it provided. Now it’s wife, kids, bills, work, etc. you and your buddies can’t just decide to drive to (insert some morally questionable destination) at 2am on a Wednesday for a long weekend.
The life reason breaks up are the worst. Not in terms of the actual act of breaking up, those are usually smooth. But the years after, you always wonder what could have been, since you didn’t break up because either one was feed up, it lingers man.
Seems like it would just be a hollow shell. It’s not just the drinking, it’s all of it, being young,new emotions and experiences, the friends, etc. Would I still do it? You bet your ass.
I work a lot with 17/18 year old kids who are gearing up for college, so bright eyed and bushy tailed. I’m not jealous per se but wistful that they are just about to start and gain all these new experiences. It’s hard not to be nostalgic.
There are articles out there that scientifically break down the powers attributed to various Pokémon in their descriptions. It is terrifying. Power to destroy cities, and that isn’t the legendaries, just random ones in tall grass.

I had a coors light for the first time in ages and I forgot how refreshing it can be while also allowing you to drink a ton and not die.
Brink is a treasure we do not deserve. How many of us broke wrists trying to be soul skaters?

Not to mention how co-dependent they are. It is deeply unhealthy.
God I didn’t even make the connection that today was 4/20. Put me out to pasture. It’s over.

I’m with 19th I just can’t see myself ever going there.

Not even a question. You would need someone’s help to wipe your own ass. Legs all day.

Dean and Lesley also broke up
As did forgetting about awesome sex.
Saw them there, which was slightly marred when a youth who can’t handle altitude, weed, and alcohol threw up on me.
