    @mariner4life nah good on him. Dude wants to do his own thing, has made a business out of it, and feels good doing it.

    Beards and/or topknots are for attention-seeking cretins.

    as opposed to 150 year old attire...

    There's absolutely nothing wrong with beards.

    Probably in conjunction with them, actually. I'll bet he makes more from creating fancy duds than a lot of people do in a job they hate, and that is to be admired 🙂

    @RLx31 my son's primary school has put blue painted rings near the bottom of all the trees and do not allow the children to climb higher than that.

    I don't know the exact science, but I believe the part of the brain that assesses risk doesn't develop as well if you are not exposed to risky (within reason) situations growing up.

    The coddling of kids today will come back to bite us IMO.

    Silly woman, there’s no difference between the genders. Men have no advantages over women at sports .

    Two things to come out of that. Confirmation on what we already knew - if men play traditional women's sports then they're better at them.

    Secondly the reaction of Holt when the hypocrisy is pointed out:

    "Oh those poor men getting no coverage, this is like welcome to our world. Seriously, welcome to our world," Holt replies.

    It's at this point Stevenson retorted: "It's amazing when it's a female sport on the other side of the conversation, look at the reaction."

    pretty sure this guy features in the stupid shit thread...and this could well go in there, but awesome that someone has reached out to him, and hopefully he is genuine about sorting his life (and this GC doesnt end up regretting his decision)
