Well, speaking of leg day, and in hopes of inspiring a few of you, I took a video at the gym yesterday. (And was chastised for it, as they have a new rule - no videos allowed. Apparantly pervs around the country have been filiming the female guests without their consent)
I wanted to see how my shoulder and bicep are healing, so I did a deadlift with 240 - three reps. That means I can still pass that event for the Army ACFT. I felt like I could do a lot more, but my shoulder felt like it might pop out. The one that hasnā€™t had surgery yet. My new shoulder felt up to the task.
So I did the leg press instead, which is not the greatest exercise, but itā€™s something at least. I got caught before I could add more weight.

Walked through a TikTok dance thing three girls were putting on outside a restaurant a few years ago. Said I was sorry.

This Gen Z slang ā€¦ my kids get annoyed when I deliberately start saying that goofball slang. :laughing: Ohio, gyatt, rizzler, skibidi, etc.

At this yearā€™s Golden Globes Awards I only recognized half of the ā€œstarsā€. Sad how you grow out of the loop.

I donā€™t watch awards shows, but Iā€™m sure you did far better than I ever could.

One of the pleasures for our generation :grin:
causing a near mortal embarassment for the kids
by using their slang or behaviour :rofl:

Oh yeah. :laughing: Iā€™ve been told more than once not to say those words around their friends.

Also, and this is nuts to me: the times I pick either of them up at school, DO NOT play ANY Heavy Metal. Itā€™s ā€œembarrassing.ā€ ā€œWe can hear it.ā€

Kids these daysā€¦

One of the joys in life is embarrassing your teenage kids. My daughters would freak. I would laugh.

My brother, 6ā€™7", accompanied his 15 year old daughter to visit senior high schools when she was deciding which school to choose.
In one of the corridors they met her best friend (girl) and best friends boyfriend.
Girl greats girl by great hug (this would have been late 2001 or maybe early 2002) and an exaggerated high pitched Hi-iiiii!.
My brother hugs the daughters friends boyfriend, lifts him about a foot off the ground and delivers the same squealing hi-iiiii!
Total embarassment but oh so dang funny
:grin: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:
When I told my kids about this they told me they would disown me if I ever tried to pull a stunt like that :unamused:

My wife and I were going car shopping some years ago . Our daughters were in high school
( they are now thirty somethings) . When they asked where we were going I replied
ā€œ I have to get my bitch a new whip ā€œ
They roared and told all their friends.

Thatā€™s when I crank the volume to 11 with all the windows down. Canā€™t recall any songs being as bad as WAP or some others.

And on the other hand ( feeling not so old after all ) I went for a ride to lunch last year with a buddy and when I got home this picture was circulating amongst my older daughterā€™s girlfriends titled
ā€œ hot old guy on a cool bike ā€œ -


Iā€™m sure it was all tongue in cheek as the picture was taken by my daughterā€™s best girlfriend and she knew who it was ā€¦ or maybe not ? LOL

We should all start up TicToc accounts and that would collapse it quicksmart as the kids do the rat on the sinking ship routine :thinking:

Many years ago, when I told her to stop wasting her time on Facebook, my oldest daughter told me that Facebook was for kooks and pedoā€™s. The young, smart & cool (according to themselves) had already left for greener pastures.
If we start invading Tic-Toc land they will be migrating out
