There has never, in the past twenty years of my life, been a 48-hour period where I did not consume some form of onion and I certainly won't stop for this lady.

Bold of you to assume that's a lady.

based on the stereotypical "guru" its definitely a dude

[–] [email protected] 1 points 7 months ago

Now I look at it :-/

I once spent 4 days with nothing but a pound of carrots. That was not the best time in my life. Still, yoga wasn't a priority back then.

I once ate a pound of bacon for dinner. I felt very gross afterwards.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Yeah well, probably not unexpected? O⁠_⁠o

[–] [email protected] 8 points 7 months ago (1 children)

I didn't expect to feel as gross as I did. The 12 beers that led to the decision to eat bacon for dinner probably didn't help with my overall feeling of well-being.

Plausible. Did you repeat the experiment to be certain?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 7 months ago

We need a control group

Ha! Never again.

My wife was out of town, and I used to slip into a cascading series of self-destructive decisions whenever I was alone. I quit drinking years ago, and generally make better choices all around nowadays.

Congrats. I did the same whenever my wife was out of town (except the excessive drinking) and it was ... not good for me :-D

Remember: whenever you're about to make a bad decision, hold your breath for 33 lunar seconds and think of onions while folding your genitals.

LOL. That's good advice all-around.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago) (1 children)

Fuck, I think I've eaten a pound of carrots at one sitting.

It was a special diet called "the company went belly up and there hasn't been a cent paid in three months". It was very effective.

High elves, wood elves, dark elves and now yoga elves.

How many folds should I make?

[–] [email protected] 25 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago) (1 children)

Like a tent, you just keep folding and smooshing it til it fits back in the bag.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 7 months ago

Is there more stuff to go in this bag? There so much room left I feel I’m missing something.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 7 months ago

Sounds like you are bragging, but let's see you try and do even 2 or 3 folds when you are all wet and holding a yoga pose while holding your breath. It's not as easy as you think.

I thought a lunar second must be way different than an earth second, but the conversion factor doesn't really change anything at 33 seconds.

https://lunarpedia.org/w/Lunar_standard_time

the Lunar second, which is defined as 0.9843529666671 Earth seconds
[–] [email protected] 12 points 7 months ago

That's 32 earth seconds when rounded.

It's probably the difference between life and death in this scenario.
