This might entertain a few folks here.

I stumbled on a gopro video someone made doing the Tough Mudder course I ran 8 years back.

I was running it in the group about two hours later...   Covers each of the obstacles on the course, but not the full run between them all. 😄

Although they do miss the Electro-Shock Therapy that is the last one....

Why has elegance found so little following? Elegance has the disadvantage that hard work is needed to achieve it and a good education to appreciate it. - Edsger Wybe Dijkstra

I think there's likely a more disturbing story behind training for that sort of flexibility at an early age...

boys suck at school

isn't the actual title... and is admitted kinda misleading, but...

counter-intuitive, at all levels save the apex, women and girls is doing better than men and boys in education and jobs, at least in modern western economies. am suspecting asian nations is not accounted in the analysis, but am having no basis for such save anecdotal which is now admitted a decade past current. 

solutions is likely to trigger folks on both ends o' the political spectrum, so am not optimistic such trends is addressed or even studied further in any meaningful way.

HA! Good Fun!

How I have existed fills me with horror. For I have failed in everything - spelling, arithmetic, riding, tennis, golf; dancing, singing, acting; wife, mistress, whore, friend. Even cooking. And I do not excuse myself with the usual escape of 'not trying'. I tried with all my heart.

In my dreams, I am not crippled. In my dreams, I dance.

Civilization, in fact, grows more and more maudlin and hysterical; especially under democracy it tends to degenerate into a mere combat of crazes; the whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, most of them imaginary. - H.L.

Stewart on Thursday ordered Mark David Latunski to serve a sentence of life in prison without the possibility for parole for the slaying and dismemberment of Kevin Bacon, who was killed just before Christmas in 2019, court records reviewed by Law&Crime show.

grisly and unnecessary details, but 'tis the season, so...

Spoiler

...

bench trial took two days.

That sounds just as bizarre as that cannibal case Rammstein based one of their songs ("Mein Teil") on 😖
