They way I think about it is you can work a dead end job for 80 hours per week making $8 an hour to make enough to survive and not have any free time to socialize, go to the gym or be with family. Or study for and try to get a decent job y

Etymology Online has an interesting description for the word north: "...possibly ultimately from PIE ner- "left," also "below," as north is to the left when one faces the rising sun..."* It's pretty muc

reddit won't load for me now, but it's where it began in /r/pics I believe, I remember the guy who mentioned it he's a Mormon and would do this to Sears catalogue models, it was his only source of porn.

No but it seems paleo diet enthusiasts indicate any heart disease was non-existent due to a paleo diet. The so-called "LOREN CORDAIN, PH.D., THE WORLD’S LEADING EXPERT ON PALEOLITHIC DIETS AND FOUNDER OF THE PALEO MOVEMENT" claim

The 5,000 year old "ice man" scientists have named Otzi had heart disease so I'd call the paleo diet healthy is misinformation.

It was the same with cellphones. My uncle likes to tell a story of when (sometime before 1985) he had his brick phone and was talking on it in the entrance of a K-Mart. He was leaning up against a wall back to everyone trying to be discree
