@catnapped and I =

Push over ... there are more of us that need a seat

 

[Blue]

this is true, I've not felt 'old' (and I'm in my 40s) until after regularly turking for a while. I know it's up to me to just make the time to exercise etc.

I made a standing desk on wheels that can fit over my treadmill... it's nice to turk standing up... and even better to ham out on a big batch while getting a few miles in.

 

[catnapped]

Gee @Plecasso you know just the right way to talk to a group.

 

[Liz]

@Vanyanka should we get these. They are up for adoption.

 

[tricker]

none of you are making me optimistic about being alive longer now lol

You get used to it

Or addicted to painkillers.

Get one of those convertible standing/sitting desks.

yeah I'm kind of attached to my current desk arrangement, but some kind of bicycle chair would be sweet if such a thing exists

I think once I get a laptop I'd move around a bit more, maybe get a standing desk with it or smth.

I seriously laughed out loud at this.

Every time I talk to someone who is turning 30 I am filling them in on this tid bit of info - 'you're dying'

we're all dying; it's the oxygen
we're in a state of constant combustion,
and around 30 is when the body's rate of regeneration starts to decline below the level of destruction.

but the combustion is necessary as the release of energy is consumed by our body,
and converted to growth and repair of our body's cells

after many years of this, you'll end up like @TobyF , dying, and ready to leave this mortal coil

Does anyone have experience doing surveys on a Microsoft tablet? Is it easier?

Eh, as someone who already has a chronic pain based disability, I'm probably already "addicted" tot he painkillers. They're technically nonaddictive ones but without them I'm in so much pain I can't function. I might be young but I definitely get to "feel" old all the time lol. I feel like a baby and a grandpa all the time. it's weird.

I'm 42 and actually in the best shape of my life or atleast that's what my tumblr followers say @JenniLeigh

esteemed leaders

nice

 

[C to the J]

Did you ever hear back from ocmp5 @C to the J ? I miss my usual catpcha clearing hits.

Nah.

I can only assume they read it since they pulled the batch like 30 minutes after I messaged them but they haven't figured out how to/don't care enough to fix them.

I'm in a pretty good shape too
but one day I'll end up being a different shape - a circle
so
I need to start working out

"nonaddictive" pain killers are a bunch of crap and I can probably guess which ones you are talking about. Damn chronic pain.
