Altavista
I know this won’t work for everybody, but for me the answer was yoga. I feel healthier now than I did 15 years ago.
I’m super out of shape, have hypermobility in some joints and have a touch of social anxiety. I’ve always been curious about yoga and feel like I could benefit from it. Can you recommend any ways for me to get started to ease my way into it?
You don’t actually need anything to start, but a yoga mat helps. If you’re in a major city and it doesn’t make you too anxious, there might be yoga in the park. Your best bet is a real yoga expert who can see what you’re doing wrong and offer advice, usually as part of a group in a studio. If you can’t afford that, then you can probably begin with YouTube. Wear stretchy clothes, like for sports.
I see a lot of memes like and…
Am I just lucky or something? What the heck is wrong with my brethren xennials that yall are falling apart already?
I don’t need no drugs to calm me
The name’s in the picture.
Everyone seeing this meme regardless of their age: “Oof! Ouch! My back-bones!”
Ah yes, the young whippersnapper Ask Jeeves!
Any reason to switch to this snazzy new service over Webcrawler?
You always remember your first…
The oldest search engine I could specifically remember using was Hotbot, but it debuted in 1996 and I’d been online for 2 years at that point. I don’t remember what I used before it.
Webcrawler and yahoo! are the earliest I recall using.
I remember using Yahoo!, so that’d be it.
Lycos was a big deal for a while, and apparently debuted in 1994. They had a dog and everything. Altavista was certainly a thing for some time as well.
Webcrawler edged out Lycos to be the oldest by about a month.
Good call, I’d forgotten about Lycos.
“Dino. Short for dinosaur? Remember to ask Jeeves.”
Where yall getting meds at?
I don’t have back pain but my knees hurt from just existing (yes I move them, no it doesn’t help).
Nope, the only pain I have is the rest of you.
Said with love <3
i’ve been looking at my baclofen all day trying to decide when to take it. i decided on 5 hours before bed.
Funny, because I just took some ibuprofen for my knee.
Not me, as I’m sitting in med with a heating pad on my lower back.
It was cool technology for it’s time. Search engines demystified much of the web surfing experience for uninitiated users and AskJeeves was the first to be able to take plain language questions and return valid hits, unlike most of it’s competition at the time (specifically AOL).
It just seems unimpressive now because searching has become so optimized while simultaneously the internet has become a smaller information ecosystem by becoming more centralized so searching for answers to common questions is often unnecessary.
Stop abusing meds. Do some exercise instead.
Been moderately lifting weights since my 30s. No random aches or pains here. Also sometimes chicks complement me when I take my shirt off. Which is nice.
Especially since the meds for backpain are “just” painkillers.
Right! This! I suffered back pain when I was twenty. Dude, I can touch my toes, in fact, the floor.
I arm wrestled a 27 year old who bragged about how I was old and weak.
He tore his rotator cuff trying to prove it.
I think kids don’t understand aging. They better get their heads wrapped around it or they will simply become the stereotypes they are mocking.
Kids are fucking stupid, and that’s why we have idiot adults.
