Last Person #5

[Xue Sheng]

Are there any noble truths that don't involve suffering? Like the truth of the path to the joy of consuming bacon?

Now don't start that Bacon stuff again....we all know it is wrong and no one should consume it EVER...

I consume it. I know it's wrong, but I consume it anyway. Because it's a dirty job, but somebody has to do it.

Bacon is good.
Everything is better with Bacon!

 

[AngryHobbit]

Bacon is good.
Everything is better with Bacon!

Forever and ever.... amen.

Today was Beltane.

We published a book.

@gpseymour braved a POUND class with me.

It was a good day.

That POUND class does not make for a “good day”.

I am reminded that I’m good at learning concepts quickly, but slow at learning movement patterns, especially if they involve both hands and feet. Especially if there’s a beat involved. Especially at a fast pace. Especially with other people watching.


That’s a lot of especiallies.

Did I ever tell you that I'm allergic to fast paced movement to a beat that requires me to use both feet and hands

I are a snowflake, dammit!

After last night, I think I'm claiming anaphylactic shock. That would explain some of my movements.

The truth is, you suffer by not consuming bacon.

I don't know if you've noticed - but no one was watching you. We were all too busy surviving. It's a common misconception about group classes, "Ooh, everyone will be watching me... I am so clumsy... everyone will think I am such an idiot..." Trust me - no one is watching. We are BUSY.

 

[AngryHobbit]

aren't you especial.....

I thought it was very special - I always feel so alone in these classes in that most people come with friends, coworkers, or family members (moms, sisters, nieces, etc.) I am one of the very few who comes alone. So, it was nice to have someone else there.

It was nowhere near that bad. You are exaggerating. Paraphrasing the movie "Matrix" - everyone sucks the first time. Ok, maybe not everyone. But most.

You know, you should just get yourself checked into a research institute that studies allergies. You have some strange and fascinating ones: mud, bacon, fast-paced movement to a beat that requires the use of feet and hands....

When I do something wrong, everyone watches. True story.

Some of us suck more than others.

Even if anyone was watching, they probably thought, "What a tough guy! He has no idea what he is doing - but he is trying anyway. Well done." Just think - potentially, that's what all those beautiful women in class were thinking about you.

 

[AngryHobbit]

Sinus infection. Like having someone drive hot spikes through my sinuses - dirty rusty spikes. Actually took a sick day from work. So... sorry about the disturbance in the Force, y'all.

HEY!!!! Wait just one cotton picking minute there...I am NOT allergic to Bacon..... I just know it is vile and disgusting and should be eradicated from the plant...and I am pretty sure we already settled this and everyone agreed with me on the whole eradicate bacon thing
