New Year resolutions in Canberra

31 December 2012 | By johnboy

OK guys, knock yourselves out in the comments with your own resolutions, or those you’d like for others (not me or RiotACT as I’ll take pleasure in deleting those).

Or just knock yourselves out with festive spirit.

I guess I’d like to up my bench, deadlift and squat.

Unfortunately the gym is going to be full of somewhat fat, perpetually sweaty 30-40 something men whom I’ve never seen before, who’ll spend the next month doing ineffective 3×8 rep, 3 day split routines that includes doing bicep curls in the squat rack, before disappearing without a trace. I get that these dweebs effectively subsidize my own gym membership, but it’s bloody annoying to have them around. I guess I might take the opportunity to cut for the next month or two.

Ok here goes. I need some help with a couple of my resolutions. I would like to learn German. And my wonderful deutsche damen also likes to foxtrot. Now I have 2 left feet and no apparent feeling for musical rhythm. Can someone suggest a good place who could teach a dance retard such as myself ?

I don’t do New Year’s resolutions, as 1st January is an arbitrary date in an arbitrary calendar. And yes I do live in a narco-cynicalist commune.

No-one will notice. But park it badly, and see how quickly the phone cameras come out.

Good luck, it’s the best thing you’ll ever do.

I recommend cold turkey, I tried (and failed) to quit with ‘assistants’ like patches/gum half a dozen times and found cold turkey (and a month long stint of nasty bronchitis) the best way to make it a permanent change.

Thanks.With luck I can do it without the bronchitis.
