@dragon35666@MarmotRespecter breaking my teammates ankle at midfield to stop a breakaway rather than chase the opponent down because its 84' and my legs are tired.
@idyllicdreamss take breaks. exercise during the day in little bursts. go to the grocery store even if you only need one thing. make sure you socialize outside of zoom calls at least a few times a week.
@Redfuzzywabbit@willmenaker@keewa "first and foremost a game about skill and technique"
lol. it's a game about knowing which direction the single referee is looking and flopping on the ground like a dead fish when you need a quick break from running.
@maisonlongan I love when a sport is about who can follow the rules the best as they are arbitrary enforced by a corrupt referee and some other corrupt unnamed guys in a dark room in a different country watching slow mo replays and not really about who can kick a ball better.
@Nick___Collins easy trick: just put your foot under the foot of the opposing team's best player while he is looking the other direction and he is out of the tourney😎
@Electrarythm This is extremely true. I write "Doritos" on the notepad next to the pantry and a few days later I open the pantry door and there are Doritos inside.
I'm sort of a music guy (a bit older now and out of touch with the tik-tok generation of music). I had only barely heard of this guy.
So I listened to his Tiny Desk performance. My first thought is that white people must finally be rebelling against performative pop-country.
Noah Kahan is on a sold-out world stadium tour across 5 continents, with 1M+ tickets sold in North America alone. His new album hit No. 1 in 9 countries. He has a doc on Netflix. And yet because we all browse a different version of the internet now, you get comments like this.
I still regularly talk to college educated people with real jobs and responsibilities who believe walking outside from a warm house into a cold winter night will cause them to become ill.
Let's continue with the AC madness :-)
The main source of confusion in this debate is that when Americans talk about AC, they mean a distributed cooling system (HVAC), which is generally less aggressive.
AC installed in Europe is often based on a single unit that blows in a single direction, and often rather aggressively.
And this is the essence of the problem.
If you sleep under such an AC, it's almost certain that you will pick up a runny nose, a sore throat, a headache, or stiff muscles.
Two nights ago, I slept on the sofa under the AC while waiting for the Croatian WC game, and after a few hours, I developed a sore throat and a runny nose. The negative effect was immediate.
I jumped into the sea and spent some time under the sun, and it was gone.
Older people sleeping directly under an AC are actually risking their lives, and I'm not even joking.
So, regulatory pushback in Europe has some logic; these things, if used improperly, are dangerous. You can't have cold air blowing directly into your body, which is fighting the heat; in Europe, pretty much everybody knows this.
Cold drafts on a warm body that cause health issues are not superstitions; they're basic physics and biology, and if you deny this, it's hard to take your points seriously.
HVAC systems work differently; they distribute cold air throughout the house, so there is little risk of directional cold drafts.
But who has time for such nuances? Let's just label everybody as poor :-)
