You can be a statistical outlier. Smoking is not good. You can have 10% chance of living to 94 and be on of the lucky 10%.

I reckon she was definitely lucky with the smoking but did most other things right. Well apart from drinking, Smoking and eating red meat and all the other shit.

Bullshit red meats fine ffs

I did that to lose weight at one point. I stopped going to gym because of back problems and eventually it got out of hand and I ballooned up. I stopped sugar entirely, stopped most carbs, and dropped 20kgs in 9 months, and eventually dropped 30kg in total. Went from 104kg to 74kg. Started back on the weights after that and get around at about 85/86 kg now.

Still stay off all sugar and diet is mostly meat, poultry, fish, fresh fruit and veg. No processed foods (they're the killer, loaded with sugar) and got off mixed drinks and mostly off beer. I drink straight spirits for the most part now, single malts and some decent bourbons. I stopped drinking entirely for that 9 months where I dropped 20 kegs, and in my opinion, that is the biggest difference maker for anyone trying to get in to decent shape.

Yep looking forward to it. Haven't seen much of him since that banned stand up show but he'd be a good laugh. Also **** the woke clowns that tried to cancel him - I'll support where I can

Any other real men indulging in some Ryder Cup action? Hovland

Puts me to sleep, so watching the warm up cricket world cup match between Pakistan and NZ instead.

Golf

 

[StFly]

That moment you are using your phone, it runs a bit hot, you put it on wireless stand, stand does nothing. You change cord, stand still does nothing. You use secondary wireless stand, phone states connected, not charging, whilst pondering life choices and if you have a dead charger or cable or phone, phone shifts from not charging to charging wirelessly, yay, one works, check the other one.

Unplug it, almost get smacked in the face with the usb C cord as wasn't 100% in, more like 99%, probably from all the plugging and unplugging that was done previously to try and diagnose wtf was going on, and hey presto, both now work again.

Triple check your cord connection kiddies, cause sometime you dun goofed.

Golf

MMA on grass son

 

[StFly]

I'd consider it kendo, what with the golf clubs having a handle on them that can be used as a rounded blade and all...

But hey, MMA cause iono, golfers do more than just stand there and twist at the hip?

Sugar's always been the problem, carbs in small doses and sugar very rarely is a pretty simple prescription to improve general health.

Even just complex carbs. White flour and processed grains are pretty terrible but whole grains and legumes are slow release. The Mediterranean diet looks like a solid model.
