Inextricably linked to “Lift Me Up” for me
2·12 days agoAh, I see now - that’s a very good point!
If you re-read what I wrote, you’ll see that’s not at all what I’m saying. Regardless I’m done with this conversation because this:
I’m sorry to be pedantic
No you’re not.
is unnecessarily rude. Have a great day.
The person I was replying was “guaranteeing” that a 300lb person can lift at least 300lbs. I’m sure your father was strong but he was a professional gymnast. He’s an outlier. And genuinely, good for your dad - that’s great. But the vast majority of 300lb people aren’t super fit. They can’t all lift 300lbs and this is what I’m arguing. I’m not talking specifically about your dad, I’m replying to the other poster who was making a ridiculous generalization.
I’m sorry to be pedantic, but you said:
How much do you think a 300 lb person can lift? I guarantee it’s at least 300 lbs.
And I’m telling you it’s unlikely they can lift 300lbs. Deadlift, lunge, squat. Because that weight is in addition to the body weight they’re used to carrying. And even for bench, pull-up, or chin-up, they are unlikely to be able to complete even one rep because those require upper body and core strength, which are not naturally built just by dint of being obese.
I’m just saying that the average 300lb person isn’t magically super strong.
Let’s see your average 300lb person do a pull-up. Or let’s see them deadlift 300lbs.
Sure their legs will be strong from carting around all that mass, but unless they’re actively strength training, that leg strength isn’t going to be as impressive as you think.
Ugh I always hated having to put a jacket over my costume!
One year my neighbor’s mom sewed her a dinosaur costume and insulated it with a bunch of fleece batting, so the costume was warm enough she didn’t need a jacket. I was soooooo jelly!
Everybody hates the house that gives out cheez wiz
Forgive me if this is a stupid question, but isn’t that why neurodivergences are generally considered along a spectrum? As in, it’s possible to be mildly autistic or mildly ADHD, and therefore still pretty functional - or it’s possible to be profoundly autistic or profoundly ADHD, and therefore probably low-functioning - or anywhere in between?
1! Just had a pumpkin spice coffee in bed while I watched the sunrise. The clouds were cotton candy pink for a few minutes there. Life is good :)
It’s pretty much a staple in the New Jersey food landscape and for good reason.
(Too bad for you they don’t have a ‘Taylor Ham’, egg, and cheese sizzli) >;)
Sure, that way I can get a pork roll, egg, and cheese Sizzli to fuel me before I go Trenton on your ass
