How to look good as a girl and gain 1M Insta followers and never have to 'work' ever again. (here is my step by step guide)

*Develop an eating disorder (Bulimia is best)
*Get Lean (but not too lean)
*Learn to master photoshop / selfie angles
* Do squats for dat ass, (Shortcut, get a bum lift)
* Because youre lean, your boobs have disappeared, so get fake teddies.
* Dress like a slut
* Take 3 photos a day
* Follow and unfollow everyone immediately after
* Start doing promos/ads. "oh hai guise, check out my facemask made of racoon turds, its the best!! <3



Done.

Here is the crux of this debate.

It's all opinion.
The closer we approach the uncertainty of life's ending the more we wish to trade all of the things we have acquired in exchange for all of the things we have lost: wealth for youth, knowledge for fresh curiosity, resignation for hope. We'd trade our wisdom for new experiences, but it is wisdom that will teach us that at the end of the road the only new experience is death.

some opinion, there was a title ix case a few years back about whether or not cheerleading was a sport. universities wanted credit for it from a female sport perspective, i believe it was ruled NOT to be a sport. the accompanying opinion would probably offer some insight into what is and aint a sport, from a LEGAL perspective.

If it requires the power of concensus it is an opinion, not a fact.

Enshrining opinion in law does not turn it into objective fact, neither does it change everyone's opinion.

I am sure there are a lot of people that eould disagree with the ruling.

thats fine but a law is not just a matter of "everyone thinks it". things gotta follow logically, arguments have to be made. people who disagree gotta put forth proper counter arguments, it's not just everyone raise your hand who thinks it.

i swear i will rep the shiit out of u if we manage not to get into a semantic debate about the nature of opinion.

But I love debating for the sport of it.

Touche, though. You are right that Laws are reasoned opinions worthy of concensus.
The closer we approach the uncertainty of life's ending the more we wish to trade all of the things we have acquired in exchange for all of the things we have lost: wealth for youth, knowledge for fresh curiosity, resignation for hope. We'd trade our wisdom for new experiences, but it is wisdom that will teach us that at the end of the road the only new experience is death.

When are you going to make a why do male bodybuilders and powerlifters/anything that’s not a team sport think they’re athletes thread?

GS athletes are basically just their models. Male or female. Just lol if you think they’re claiming to be Olympic level athletes.
They said she's gone too far this time

Exactly, they are just models.

And there are plenty of sports that aren't team sports.

Totally agreed. It's funny to see people that have been into fitness for many years get annoyed with the fitness industry as a whole. Misc was amazed with bodybuilders back in the day, but when fitness fanatics (i.e. crossfitters) and aesthetics hijacked it some got annoyed buy these people becoming philosophers and athletes because they lift. It's funny really.

it annoys the phuck out of me because i wish i wasnt so self conscious i could post nothing but good lighting jacked selfies and somehow get paid to do it. if i posted the first shirtless picture of myself on IG i feel like all my high school friends would cringe to death. i care too much about how im perceived, and i don't want people to think im so incredibly vain, even though i am.

i mean look at this bich IG, literally ever picture is the same picture of herself. 50% of the pictures is just her ass. i known fully nude strippers with more self awareness and shame.

I'm not suggesting that only team sports are sports. Just saw some people above implying that so I included it in the pot calling kettle black category.

It's like anything going mainstream. The people who did it first and enjoyed being called whatever name, now hate that others do it too and it's no longer cool because it's mainstream. I will have to say there are so many posers on IG who barely gymmed for a couple months and every post they make is about their healthy lifestyle. But hey, better gym than no gym.

Strong evidence to back up claim. I haven't even misced that much since the last time I talked to you. Let alone saying half a word to a mod. And nah, never had to clear inbox crew. Mind sharing that rep tracker you have with me? Because I don't actually know what it was when I last talked to you.
