  • What i really meant by consistency isn’t really being perfect anyway, it’s more about longevity, as in, being imperfect, but over a long period of time, ideally as long as you are capable.

    I really appreciate all the info you’re giving! It’s really encouraging.

    I was a high level athlete growing up, so my only previous example of what was “enough” is hard to live up to as an adult working in an office, but seeing as ive been going an average of 7-8 hours per week, that makes me feel a lot more confident that I am, in fact, doing enough.

    So thank you :)










  • Yeah it’s always a shame when you go to an establishment and the beer is clearly an afterthought. My husband has ruined certain places for me because he will always notice when the draft lines aren’t clean or when he can taste diacetyl in the beer (an off-taste some beers get that smells/tastes like buttered popcorn flavouring).

    Does make me very appreciative of places where they are clearly knowledgeable and care, though!


  • The pours we are talking about have nothing to do with the prank in the video, that’s just them fucking with an old man. The Czech-style foam pours come in three types:

    Hladinka (smooth): 1/3 foam, 2/3 beer

    Šnyt (split): half-half to two-thirds foam

    Mliko (milk): all foam

    The Czechs invented that way of pouring their beer and a special tap for doing so, it’s a tradition, just like the Germans and English have their own traditions around their local styles.

    It’s literally a centuries-old tradition, so clearly there have been huge amounts of people over many, many years who don’t think it makes the beer taste like shit. This is not a new thing. I’ve also had it and it’s pretty fuckin good if you’re not already drinking shit beer.

    Also, wtf? Nobody is earnestly giving people these pours without them explicitly ordering them, so idk what you’re fuckin on about saying it makes people feel unwelcome. If you don’t fucking want one, don’t fucking order one.

    In every brewery I’ve been to that has these pours, they adjust the price accordingly and you’re not getting ripped off anymore than buying a regular pint (price per actual ml of beer poured is approx. the same). I’ve never heard somebody in an actual brewery I’ve been to say that foam was better than beer, but there are a lot of reasons for these different pilsner pours.

    If you’re curious, I can ask my husband (a brewer) what the purpose of these pours is.

    Yeah? He’s still responsible for them. I never said he was a good person or that he was wrong, just that men are responsible for this “false advertising” as you so eloquently put it.

    I’m not arguing with you that the pants make women’s butts look better and that it may disappoint you when you manage to bed one. I am arguing that it’s not advertising because women are humans and our society stopped explicitly selling those a while ago.


  • Yoga pants were first designed and sold by Lulu Lemon, which was founded by Dennis “Chip” Wilson.

    So I don’t necessarily disagree, I hope you understand that you should be mad at other men for creating them, not at women for wearing them. Call it false advertising all you want, but its false advertising created by men.

    If you want a woman with an ass, just look for a hockey player, tbh.
