Walking to work

Being stuck in someone's armpit on a busy tube train.

Having to listen to loud schoolchildren and people's w@nkpods on the bus

Quiet bus journeys with a seat and a good book

Oh, and carrying bags while walking back from the supermarket as a cheap alternative to the gym.

I could never be as good as you Rich. I mean, I just don't have what it takes to pass out and lay on the gym floor.

A quick trip to the off-license would fix that.

Try going from working a retail-type job (walking most of the day) to a desk job. Then you'll never doubt the exercise value of walking

Walking for an hour is hardly "exercise" and doesn't really make you stronger.

It's excellent cardio-vascular exercise, you ninny.

It won't build upper-body strength, true, but it will build up your legs and your endurance, plus of course, exercising your heart.

& nice that you take the effort to speak with the crowd here, who are generally internet addicts, but hey well done to you and I hope I'll start doing someting similar soon...

Thanks . I always make sure to thank people who dare to try and make the world a little wiser, using mediums of mass stupidity/distraction. The people who are, dare to be not stupid.

This is the kind of thing, which might make a difference to 2% of people. Who cares if 50% of people just find it annoying. They find PLENTY of things annoying, they'd probably find gratitude and being nice annoying. But for the people it makes a difference for - hell yeah, worth it.


I think that "Idiocracy" should be compulsory viewing.
There's a scene where Mr Average (super-intelligent in the world of idiots) is saying something genuinely smart. Then all the idiots start doing the mouth-flapping thing and taunting him.
It's a sad but astute reflection of a prevailing mentality.

Someone needs to have VERY high self-esteem to dare to speak out. This can boost other peoples self-esteem when they hear that "Hey - it's okay to think and speak for yourself?"
SO worth it.

I mean I only speak out now, because I heard a wise teenage girl speak out on YouTube (a hive of stupidity and low intellect). I was so inspired that I went off and started the Better AI project! Seriously! I was inspired by this talented girl on youtube who made a bunch of inspiring videos encapsulating wise messages straight from her own heart.
Sadly she deleted all her vidoes because after a while she felt embarrassed, she was young and "naive" and hadn't learned to "fit in", must have been home-schooled or something.
But anyway, it was HER who inspired me to do something for myself and others! A teenage girl on YouTube. That's where Better AI started, that's what inspired me to do something different and try my hand at something new.

Anyone who attacks my attitude of wise-action, also attacks my AI project. You're welcome to do that, just know what enables that kind of thing. And trust me, I'm REALLY not bothered by you 5% who would attack my AI project on a CIV site .

Holy god you are pretentious.

There are only seven worthwhile minutes in the movie: the introductory narration, the scenes with the black president, and the mob destroying the ******'s car. If you want to make a movie compulsory viewing, try to make sure 97% of it it doesn't completely blow.

The film is 233 minutes long in the Wigiverse?
