See, that’s what the app is perfect for.

I wonder if the people who most enjoy tumblr tags are the same kind of people who enjoy that kind of standup comedy delivery where you go one line past the punchline to keep the rhythm off-kilter, or do a second punchline as an under-your-breath aside, cause to me there’s something similar about the two aesthetics and I greatly enjoy both.

pontificatin' is there a good example clip of a comedian who does this? or is there a specific term?

The reason that I am sympathetic to the “you should enjoy exercise” message is that there are kinds of exercise that I really enjoy, and kinds that I really don’t enjoy. The range is absolutely huge. It’s not like movies where, you know, some are better, some are worse, but fundamentally watching a movie is kind of like watching another movie. And I know myself to the point where if the only exercise I would be doing is the kind where I hate doing it, I would not be able to keep doing exercise on willpower alone (cf. my success with “not spending too much time on tumblr”).

So maybe some other people are also like that, and rather than being told to exercise whether they like it or not, the message of finding some version of exercise that they enjoy would be helpful. If you hate exercise, it might be that you don’t hate exercise, maybe you hate the thing you are doing to get exercise. I don’t know if that’s true, but it’s possible.

Like say all you had ever tried eating was hamburgers and you fucking hated hamburgers and were like “food is terrible, I hate it so much”. And the response to that could be “well you need food to live” since that is true, but I think the better response is “maybe try something other than hamburgers and you might like it”.

pontificatin' low confidence assertions food cw exercise also apparently I have a tag called exercises de lack-of-style for which I congratulate myself cause that's hilarious good work me
