I have a weird habit of eating tuna straight out of the can as a midnight snack. Anyone else do this or am I just weird?

Do you drain it first at least? That's not that weird, but I'd rather mix it with some miracle whip first.

Yeah, I drain it, but right now I'm snacking on a can of solid white albacore, just picking it out with a fork.
 
I feel slightly guilty for asking this question here because it's one of those things that google could easily solved (and certainly I've already read quite a bit), but I'm presently more interested in hearing from other GAfers.

I've begun the process of losing weight. I'll skip the boring, lengthy story and just skip to the chase: I ultimately want to lose about 100 pounds. What's the least amount of calories on can intake daily before the body begins to stall weight loss for fear of starvation? I've been keeping it between 1500 and 2200.

Also a question about exercise. Is the point of exercise to burn a few hundred calories a day/couple of times a week, or is there some underlying, background function to it? I've seen plenty of popular exercises listed as burning 200 calories or fewer, and I've Aldo read that a pound of fat is about 3500 calories. I've also seen "exercise 3 days a week" thrown around. 600 extra calories trimmed off a week doesnt seem like shit, which leads me to believe that exercise's true value isn't in the actual removal of calories.

Lastly, I was having a really hard time getting my ass out of bed early enough to go walking every morning, and something finally clicked today that I can use my pool instead, so I started that today. Does anyone have suggestions for water exercises? I just swam approximately 300 feet, and then another 150 right before bed today because idk what else to do.
 
I want to ask a question about a TV show, I'm looking for the thread on GAF where you describe a film/tv show/book etc and people try and find out what it is. Anyone got the link?

I'm going to ask about the show here too because I might as well.

It was shown on British TV, I'd guess in the nineties, it was a sci-fi show, I think it starred a young news reporter who stumbles on a conspiracy to cover up aliens, he has a piece of strange metal that opens up on it's own, I think it was set in the fifties. I know that's quite vague so it's quite the shot in the dark, but I've been wondering about it for a few years now and I thought I'd ask.

He asked a question that i wanted to ask for a very long time but could not find the bravery in me to ask it at the OT. But did you see his avatar? He has Harry Potter...

Do people really like the My Little Pony stuff or is it a joke?
Oh man you saw through our clever ruse. Now we have to find a new show to pretend to like.
Yes we actually like it because it's a surprisingly good show, the OP of the thread does a good job at explaining why we like it.
 
Why is this thread not stickied?
It'd prevent many a senseless thread, and I wouldn't have to dig through my subscriptions every time i want to ask a stupid question
 
Where would I find "realistic" porn?
Although I have no firsthand experience, I'm pretty sure girls normally don't scream and squeal or shout stuff like "OH YEAH FUCK MY PUSSY HARDER OH YEEEEAH I LOVE YOUR GIGANTIC DICK CUM ON MY FACE!" all the time like they do in professional porn.
Frankly, it's kind of a turnoff, and I also think it kinda detaches me (as a member of forever-alone-gaf) from what real sex is like.

You mean "amateur"? Try incorporating that into your searches.

from my experience, amateur is mostly grainy/pixellated stuff at awful resolution, with awful camera angles
doesn't really do it for me either
i'm looking for amateur porn with the camera work of professional porn, i guess?
 
Has anyone had sex with an artificial vagina, like fleshlight?

I haven't tried nor am thinking of getting one. Just wondering what it feels like to have sex with one.

anyone know what the voltage/watts is on american slim ps2's? (120v-240v?)

i wanna import one here in the UK but im not sure if i'll need a step down transformer or not (if i dont need a transformer all i need is just a 2pin to 3pin converter i think), because i wanna play some rpgs that didnt make it to europe (Alter Code F, Grandia Xtreme, KH:COF, Radiata etc . I already have most of the games and component cable i need
 
Anybody else having problems with GTalk & AIM since their supposed integration? Basically, nothing works well and it's tough to find out solutions/info on the nets that is relevent. There was one Google question about it but it wasn't really accurate to my description.. but .. yah... anybodyelse?

There's female friendly porn intended for partners to watch together.
Usually they're directed by women who want to make less misogynistic movies that both sexes can enjoy.

doesn't female porn usually come with a sappy storyline and all that shit?
i think i actually tried watching a female porno, the sex scenes were few and in between, and borderline softcore (i think you only saw the dude's dick, never the girl's pussy O_o)
all that i want is some realistic fucking, lol

Fuck The Geek is good is you want realistic, no acting porn. He's a middle aged guy fucking young girls while his wife films. You should be able to find full free clips on tube sites.
 
What are comic books like in comic book universes? Do they even have them? How could they compete with shit thats is happening overhead? If they have comic books, are they just true chronicles of what's happening in the universe?

there is a weightloss thread of gaf, and also a workout thread. the workout thread first few posts have lots of info on calories needed/day for weightloss, and will be able to answer your exersise questions. AFAIK, swimming is one of the best exercises you can do. just switch up which stroke you're doing every now and then to keep things fresh. no need to do pool yoga like you're 60.
 
I'm thinking on splurging on this.

It seems like a good TV for a relatively decent price, though the other thing is that I'm at work nearly all day. If they deliver it when I'm not home, I'm afraid someone could just steal it. Is there anyway I could arrange to pick the thing up myself?

It might've changed. It was 300 for me earlier this year.

I thought there was a timed component as well? So you can't just post 300 times in your first day and then start making threads.
 
Question: I want to get in on some Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, but I don't know where to start/dive in. I watched the 2003 series when I was a kid and loved it, but was it really that good? I imagine it's at least aged better than the 1980s animated series, but again, I have no idea. Also, there are comics? Which predate the series, I'm assuming? All I know of the TMNT comics is that there were Usagi Yojimbo crossovers which I thought was badass when I was little. Are the comics any good, and which ones should I nab?

I'd make a thread about this but I'm a jooñor.

It's 90 days from the time you make your account. I made mine last year, but I was approved this year.

Not 60 days? Anyways, I'm covered on that front. This, at least...
Maddog said:
Just wait a few hours. I hit 300 and didn't lose Junior status until the next morning.
...gives me hope. :) I will wait patiently for the next rising of the sun.

EDIT: HOLY FUCK, JUNIOR NO MORE!

Interestingly enough, Watchmen posed this same question to itself. Alan Moore ventured a guess that since actual superheroes and masked crimefighters were the law of the land, the public wouldn't be at all interested in them for comics. So he supposed that the swashbuckling adventure stories that predated hero comics would have maintained and surged in popularity instead. So the Tales from the Black Freighter comic interspersed through the graphic novel is an example of one of those.

Is there any way to NOT use Amazon credit/money from trade-ins on an order?
Yes. I don't have any trade credit I can check, but I believe there is some checkbox that says "Use [or do not use] Amazon Credit when purchasing" or some such. It's somewhere on the payment page.
