Things that annoy the HELL out of you.
Did some Googling and bought a new iPod battery for $18 from here. Problem solved, and the new battery has 45% more capacity than the original! :) Now let's hope the hard drive doesn't crash like my original iPod's did...

That's something that probably won't ever change, regardless of age :P

"I want a girlfriend/boyfriend", and other such relationship advice
For women, assuming when you get married you plan on eventually having kids, the older they are the more taxing it is on their physical being, thus the later you get married (for women specifically) the more unhealthy it is. You don't need to get married to have kids.

Today...
That loneliness will probably subside in a week or two. You'd be surprised at how quickly your mind can adapt to stuff like that. Play social video games and watch some TV (or just listen to the TV in the background while you do other things). Your mind can't always distinguish whether or not your social interactions are "legitimate" or not.

how to motivate my sister
There's probably nothing you can do to motivate her. She has to be the one driven to change and she has to come to that conclusion on her own... Which means things will probably have to get worse if they're ever going to get better. It sucks helplessly watching your loved ones make stupid decisions but you've just gotta hope that someday they'll learn. At least she's not your wife :lol:

Workout plan for beginner/no equipment
Consider it "primarily" instead of "only." You can only expect to get good results in one of those areas, but you'll still get some results in the others as a side-effect. Expecting to lose lots of fat, get huge muscles, and get incredibly strong simultaneously will quickly lead to frustration. Gotta focus on one area at a time then move on to the next once you're satisfied with the results. There's better exercises you can do than planks... just because planks are an isometric exercise, which is inferior to concentric and eccentric movements (exercises which involve "reps") If you can't do basic bodyweight exercises yet, Google the progressions for them. If you can do them already, then put heavy objects in a backpack and do weighted bodyweight exercises. Also read this if you're going to be doing bodyweight exercises at home. All my workouts for the past year have been bodyweight training at home following that method. Could do chinups with 1 arm after only a few months of training. :thumbup:

Workout plan for beginner/no equipment
Depends on what your goal is. Strength gain? Muscle mass gain? Fat loss? Choose one (and only one) Normally I'd just advise you to start off by simply sticking to 5x5 bench press, deadlifts, and squats since that's pretty much the simplest all-around workout you can get, but that's not really an option w/o a gym. I'd just buy a pull-up bar for biceps/back. Do pushups and variations of pushups for chest/tris/shoulders. Go running/sprinting for legs and/or Google 1-legged squat progressions.

how many warning points do you have?
If you win three of these, you can trade up to a tier 2 prize. What prizes are included? Three sticks of gum, and your choice of a half filled bottle of sprite, or an empty can of dr pepper. Correction: The Dr. Pepper can has .25 ounces in it, due to the last winner being a whiny little [bleep]. The .25 ounces is iced tea without ice, though. Goon warnings for all. I do not appreciate you pushing the envelope like this, and if you keep it up, you will be Goon banned. Is there an appeal process? I don't mind my TIF warnings, but I really really don't want to be goon banned. When you read the fine print, you'll see that Goon bans are non-transferable. But if you happen to collect 4 authentic* tier 2 prizes, you can trade up to a tier 3 prize. So what's a tier 3 prize? I don't know, but he always promised me it'd be freaking sweet. I'm still waiting on 4 more Goon bans to round out my 4 tier 2 prizes. Just posting to add a tier to this quote pyramid.

No surprises there. :P How much do you agree/disagree with them?

Yeah if you really break it down, it can be kind of complicated. You're right, in that people shouldn't try to look a certain way just because the media says they "should." But if you want to look attractive (or "beautiful") to the opposite sex, then it'd probably be in your best interest to look to the media for examples of what the most attractive people really look like. I'm talking about people like Brad Pitt or Angelina Jolie here, not anorexic models though :P And I'm also not saying that it's realistic to look like those super-attractive celebrities or that you should develop an eating disorder or something to look like them. With that said, though, given the context of that website, I think whoever made that was basically trying to say, "It doesn't matter if you're fat and unattractive. If you're a good person, that's what makes you attractive!" (which isn't true at all if you're a woman); rather than, "make your own decisions; don't let the media tell you what to do" (which is true to a certain extent)

lol those would bother me less if the website didn't have "truth" in its name :P I wonder how many people quit going to the gym after reading that second pic and actually believing it

Disney fantasy relationship images that people share on Facebook. Example: Not true at all and just reinforces people's irrational relationship beliefs and encourages stupid behavior. Same goes for the ones that are like, "A real man isn't afraid to cry in your arms and tell you how much he desperately needs you in his life!" or "A real man would chop his penis off and throw it out the window of a moving vehicle just to see you smile" :wall:

"I want a girlfriend/boyfriend", and other such relationship advice
In other news, my [kitty]whipped friend just co-signed a lease for an apartment with his girlfriend :lol: Managed to get him away from her for a bit the other night... he had a few drinks in him and reluctantly confirmed that he doesn't want to live with her in this boring town during the prime of his life. Such little thought people put into their major life decisions :wall:

Getting a firecape with 1 def, tips on setup/inv?
When I got my cape w/ 1 def back in the day, I was 70ish range, 43 prayer. My ranged att bonus was 158 (crystal bow), prayer bonus 11, ranged strength 70. I also didn't know that prayer flashing existed. Meaning, if you can configure your gear such that you have stats equal or greater than that, you shouldn't have any problems making it to Jad. karils xbow is better DPS but I always preferred crystal because it has longer range, which makes safespotting and luring easier, especially as a pure. There's some occasions where all the monsters will be hiding behind a wall, and you need to attack a monster from far enough away such that the other monsters can't reach you. Without the crystal bow, you'll take damage during this process. I don't expect you to use ranger boots since they're like 10M, but I can't remember if frog/snake boots require def. If they don't, get either of those since they give +2/+3 range att respectively. I've never used purple sweets for caves, so IDK how many to recommend. Regardless, you'll want to bring 3 ranged pots and 18 prayer pots. The rest can be any configuration of blood spells/sweets/brews/super restores that you want. Basically the trick to surviving the caves these days is to simply take things one wave at a time. If you can survive a wave with a 360 and a 90 but they get you down to like 1hp by the time the wave's over, instead of wasting your brews to get back to full hp, just wait very patiently for HP to max out again before continuing. Save your brews for emergencies when you're down to like 1hp, but the 90 is still attacking you and you'll die if you don't heal. So expect it to take a while. Might look into borrowing a regen bracelet :P Rapid heal drains prayer a lot and it nullifies any prayer flashing which you may be doing. Speaking of which, if you can prayer flash as much as possible, you should have plenty of prayer pots to spare. Monster priority: 22 > 90 > 360 > 180 > 45 (assuming you've got the 180 and 45 safespotted) old guide: http://forum.tip.it/...he-fight-caves/

Behind the Scenes: June 2013
Just because it's subjective doesn't mean it's an irrelevant or weak point. Anyways I'm done discussing this for now. I'll resume this debate in BTS July :lol:

Yes, you win an exception-that-proves-the-rule trophy :P Or maybe a 2004-scape-product trophy, depending on how accurate my blind assumptions are :P
