Do you guys like watching any particular sports?
Click to expand...
I have a such great disinterest in everything but motor-sports that I'd dip outa here for a week straight if y'all started to blab on about sports lol.

My friend group in college was more interested in watching men touch each other on the tv set than going out to bars to pick up chicks so I'm very, very sick of sports... never enjoyed watching any anyhow. I can get into Nascar and F1 in the right setting I guess. It was nice mid-2020 when lockdowns lifted here and my father-in-law would take us to his favorite sports bar after going shooting and every single television was showing only motor-sports, even some as dreary as Tractor-Pulls heheh. It forced us to have conversations instead and no one was getting noisy or rowdy at the bar as tends to happen during NFL/NBA games.
 
Same here honestly i grew up skateboarding really heavy im actually pretty good at it. I use to be able to kick flip down flights of stairs and shit and grind ledges etc... never got the balls to boardslide a handrail on staircase and now im older and when I fall I stay hurt longer than I used to. Im planning on getting a surf board this summer like a longboard and keeping it at my daughter's place cause she is just a couple blocks from the beach. Im gonna teach her to surf she is old enough and has to get over the fear of the ocean. There ain't no sharks gonna eat yeah around here the likely hood is super low in my part of the world. I mean I should probably get her something smaller cuz i want a 9 footer long board which would be huge for her, lol. But i can help her catch a few in lowtide its how i learned on a big board when i was her age.. if she is into it im sure she will have a blast as the girl just loves spending time with me. And now that im back at the shore for good I have to really utilize it this year and not waste the summer hiding inside like I did this year, fuck covid. I mean we obviously mask up but im gonna go to the beach like on all my days off in the summer this year. But yeah like Delsyd said I kinda like the sports I can do and skating and surfing are always what held my interest most. I still watch skate videos on YouTube to this day I will probably get another longboat at some point just to cruise on but my days doing the tricks and technical stuff is probably over I can't risk having to miss work and etc.

Well, I hope you're right, for your sake. But of course, as a long term hold, even buying in at the peak right now is a good move. it would just be a much better move to buy in after the price corrects, assuming the price will correct. I'm gonna wait, personally.

It's very unlikely we see anything beneath $29k again, from my research.

I'm in at $31k, so I'm happy wherever we go.
 
Enjoying playing a sport is entirely different from watching it though. And perhaps it's that disconnect I can't... connect. Like when I was a kid, we'd all take turns playing Grand Theft Auto games on the PS1, but I was always soooooo bored/frustrated watching my friends, and only had fun when it got to be my turn.

I feel the same watching sports... can't stand to watch basketball, but I enjoy shooting hoops with my friends. I enjoy downhill snow skiing, but that's a rich man's sport that I haven't had the chance to engage in for many years.

And then motorsports are actually fun to watch because sometimes people die. No pain, no gain? Kinda got turned off from F1 when they made everyone use V6 engines to save the environment... pssssshh, please bitch. Limiting the amount of displacement/cylinders on a couple dozen race cars isn't gonna do shit to effect the environment.

I also enjoy watching drag racing in person, but only when I bring my car and see what I can do on the 1/4 mile, i.e. amateur racing nights at the local strip.

I wouldn't be surprised at all if it never goes below $29k again. if it gets down to $30k even, I'll buy some. Just feel like it's going to go down some first before the next spike so I'm waiting. Plus I put all my excess money for now into stocks. But going forward I am going to probably come up with na percentage of my monthly investment money to put into BTC. Looking to have many 15-20% of my portfolio in BTC, perhaps, ultimately. No more than that.
 
Watching sports is about watching individual and team excellence, seeing how they mastered their 'craft' and how they play the game in question. Athletics are slightly different but they have their own charm.

I can almost always appreciate excellence, and it comes in many forms (science, music, speaking, art, movies etc...), and it so happens that many sports have a lot of different dynamics, sometimes even not directly related to the execution itself, but commentary, social stuff, storylines, scenery etc... Watching the best people in the world play interesting games can really be extremely entertaining.
You're missing out guys.......... =D
 
I do watch NFL. (sometimes CFL) When the games are on I usually just smoke and veg in front of the TV. American Football, and I am sure a host of other sports I am naive to, has all the elements of life that wouldd make it work. Teamwork, individual talent, momentum (driven by cheerleading), and sportsmanship. I mean these guys tackle each other and then help each other up. lol

I watched ML Baseball but after the strike in 1993 I lost interest. Boring

BTW good to see you Buzz. I was just reading and catching up. If I may throw out my opinion. You are more in the now and present than most people I meet. Most could not take half a hit of acid let alone a large dose of a lysergamide. Their brains would spill on 1/10th. I did have a friend lose the plot over 35 years ago. 4 hits of strog acid. We watched him absolutely freak but we kept him inside and waited it out. He came back to reality the next day. Looked at me and joked "the only thing that acid did to me was give me a cold.." lol He was kidding, but back being captain of his own ship and signaling so. Which I already know you are. And he still enjoys tripping today coming up on 60 and it never happened again with care. He is a musician.

So I get a little miffled when these guys with their fancy degree labels us because their job requires them to supposedly "put the patterns together" to justify their career. I think what I am trying to say is I for sure have all of it. ALL OF IT, OCD, BPD, GAD, etc.... I have little bits of all of it and I think we all do. But those guys would not have a career without solidifying those things. So stay well my man, keep questioning anything throw your way. I trust you more than them. I think a balance is needed, you know, wise like a owl and sly like fox is what works. Taking some of the medical advise and tweeking it maybe.

Sense of humor is important. That comedian Billy Gardell was joking that if one guy looked at the other when they were building the Continental Railroad and said I don't think I can work today I am a little depressed, the other guy would be like get the fuck back to work. lol

My own life is a mess. My wife is stuck in Canada, dislocated hip and recovering and because of Covid I can't go get her. Even with the Compassionate entry paperwork. But it is all health Canada and not Immigration so once Covid goes away her Magesty will let me in. In addition I got two parents over 85, stubborn, starting to have health issues. Thought of a trip to get me out of a funk. Eh, I am just really looking forward to looking forward to something, anything again. Tough times.
 
I just watch eSports tournaments. I've been playing CS since 1999. Kinda sad I never got to pro, but there was basically no prize money in ~2005 and it was not a serious thing to do then. And I was like 15, interested in girls and beer and so on. We were #1 in Clanbase 5on5 Finnish ladder though, which was where all the EU teams played. I was like 12 when we qualified for this big lan called Assembly in Helsinki, but my mom didn't let me go there, lol. Could've been the thing that changed everything.

Now these kids are making millions of dollars playing CSGO.
 
Nice!!
I love watching CS, always did, I was even watching CS:S tournaments way back. It's all online now so I've been disinterested for a while, but it'll come back when LAN tournaments start again
 
was thinking about learning to play the flute t i want to make peaceful flute music maybe in the future most likely a bamboo flute.

Btw does anybody know of any good skin cleansers that work but are not like harsh or overly chemical. Smoking and god dam stimulants really left a lasting mark on my skin + alcohol though its gotten way better since i quit its still kind of obvious to people who are not naïve that i use to abuse some type of drugs by looking at me.

Salt water really works wonder swimming in the sea but i live about a hour from the nearest beach.

I wonder how many decades before actual powerful anti aging drugs or stem cells come out and we can look youthful once again.
 
Yeah the ocean does seem to heal skin issues. It heals cuts quicker it seemed and just does something to almost any skin issues.

And I highly recommend playing a musical instrument TZ. It keeps the mind sharp, helps the spirit get recharged and just feels good. :)
 
got my first feedback on my ego death technique helped somebody to have their first ego dissolution and intense peace and love. Please give it a try next time anybody is on acid this guy was on 3 tabs.

I think i have fully hacked ego death for all the new generations to come.
 


Have a very powerful afterglow going on from the super trip its been so beautiful. I love all of you and my life so much. My girl is so happy with me and everything is working out so well for us now that i have started to make more responsible choices regarding my paradigm of swirl.

So, uh, you guys might be right about BTC after all. :LOL:
Click to expand...

My various sources say 50-65k by April, a big correction in June, and then the peak peak in November. Obviously, on the way there will be peaks and valleys. It's volatile af. But yea, crazy market signals for BTC this year. It's the time for new ATHs, and 42k was just the beginning.
 
Yeah, I was wondering about that, I was thinking something snapped in my brain from the start because the amount of visuals was obscene, I couldn't see anything. I really don't understand how it happened.

I finally crashed from a month of (hypo)mania, tomorrow police interrogation (kinda worried since I don't want to tell where I got it) and I now regret not contacting a lawyer but normally everything should be fine, apart from a criminal record, maybe some drug counseling/testing and a good old fine. The stress and the extremely negative thoughts don't go well together, I've been so anxious man, I'd love nothing more than to take some etiz but I need to be clean should the option of taking a drug test be there. I'm like worried for a house search and stuff, but that'd probably be excessive.. but you never know with these guys
