Glad you're doing okay Matey.
Re: The Growing Old Kinda Sucks thread
So Ari's hockey team had a kids vs. parents game last night and I made the mistake of playing. I have never played ice hockey before (I played intramural floor hockey in college). I am paying for it dearly today. I got knocked down by a 12-year-old and I can barely lift my left arm today.
Got a Rake? Sure!

Did you win?
The second time won't be nearly as bad.

Thanks for the kind words guys.
Look, you have to establish context for these things. And I maintain that unless you appreciate the Fall of Constantinople, the Great Fire of London, and Mickey Mantle's fatalist alcoholism, live Freddy makes no sense. If you want to half-ass it, fine, go call Simon Schama to do the appendix.

Dude that’s not like running around on a soccer field. That’s slipping around on a cold, slick, hard surface.

Re: The Growing Old Kinda Sucks thread
Yeah falling on the ice can be rough. I took my niece/nephew skating once. Well the place only had figure skates in my size and Ive only worn and used hockey skates. I was going along fine at a pretty good pace until the toe of one skate caught the ice and I just went down. I didn't lose control just went straight down hard. I was in pain for many days. Ice is unforgiving, and fuck those teeth toes on figure skates.matedog wrote: ↑31 Mar 2022, 12:37amDude that’s not like running around on a soccer field.

Re: The Growing Old Kinda Sucks thread
It is. And I was wearing no padding. I'm actually a decent skater, but that game is FAST.revbob wrote: ↑31 Mar 2022, 8:19amYeah falling on the ice can be rough. I took my niece/nephew skating once.

Yeah I can skate well enough but those teeth really dig in and I had a lot of momentum and it still stopped me in my tracks.JennyB wrote: ↑31 Mar 2022, 11:04amIt is. And I was wearing no padding.

Re: The Growing Old Kinda Sucks thread
For sure - figure skates are much harder to skate on for sure. That toe pick is a doozy. I actually ended up buying a pair of hockey skates myself last year - we were going to public skate at least once a week and not having to rent skates eventually paid for itself.revbob wrote: ↑31 Mar 2022, 11:10amYeah I can skate well enough but those teeth really dig in and I had a lot of momentum and it still stopped me in my tracks.JennyB wrote: ↑31 Mar 2022, 11:04amIt is.
