Misunderstood song lyrics
Ever sing a song one way, only to find out you had it all wrong? Turns out, he wasn't saying "Wrapped up like a douche." A couple of others I initially misunderstood: Drowning Pool, Bodies= I heard "Let the bicycle go" Grand Ole Party, Insane= When she spells out insane, I heard "I am essay Annie". What are yours?

Anyone have the Surge yet?
It's been officially released and it looks tempting, but, is it really the great all in one it's advertised to be? Wondering if it's worth the hefty investment.

Help settle a debate...
Compression shorts or pants and underwear; yea or nay? Edited: I'll rephrase the question- Are athletic compression pants and/or shorts meant to be worn with, or without underwear?

Tell me all about beer
I'm not a beer drinker. At all. Whiskey is another story though. Anyway, I'm cooking a recipe that called for dark beer today. I stood in the store and realized I had no idea what a dark beer was. There were lagers and ales, but nothing that said dark. I picked up a dark bottle, but decided that didn't mean it was a dark…

Tattoo Removal
Anyone here ever had laser removal of a tattoo? I have 2 tattoos on my back that I want gone (they are side by side) because..well...they suck, I made poor artist choices. I haven't decided if I want to have them covered up, or if I want them removed. I'm seeing a couple of different options for laser removal, one saying…

3 truths and a lie
Here's a time suck game I enjoy. A person posts 3 facts about themselves, and one lie. People reply, trying to figure out which is the lie. The first person to correctly guess the lie then posts their 3 and 1. 1. I've never had sushi. 2. I've been skydiving several times. 3. I have 4 tattoos. 4. I'm a tomboy, you won't see…

I'm baaaack...
Hi everyone! It's been a long, chaotic year and a half. I began to fall out of a healthy routine after my brother passed away, then my school schedule became full time+. I've been trying to figure out for the past few weeks why I feel so down in the dumps, then it hit me. I've never felt as good as I did back when I was…

Hello! How do I give my bones some meat?
Hi all, I'm Katie and I'm a sack of bones. I have kind of a reverse problem here, could use some advice. I've always been underweight. The kind of underweight that makes people ask me things like "Do you ever eat?" "Are you sick?" Are you anorexic?". It's just how I've always been. In high school I thought the fix would be…

Weight benches
I'm trying to transition from the gym to my home and I need to invest in a weight bench. Preferably something I can work my legs on also. I've looked around and found some cheap ones, but the quality seems to match the price. Anyone have any recommendations for a decent one that isn't crazy expensive?

Need to add some new things to my playlist
I'm sure there's been threads like this before, but another can't hurt. I need some more music on my playlist, I can't workout without music. Right now my inventory has everything from Lords of Acid to Rage Against the Machine. Throw some ideas at me that fall anywhere in between the two, big names or local to you, doesn't…

Sons of Anarchy
Who watches it? Who could only stare at the TV last night repeatedly yelling, "WTF? WTF? No...no!", without realizing they may wake up the whole house? No one? Oh, uhhh, me either....

What's on your playlist?
I was merging the music I had on my computer and an old MP3 player to my phone and I realized what an odd assortment of music I had. What's your musical preference and what are some of the bands on your playlist? Some of my randomness: Tool The Doors Ministry Sacred Reich Golden Earring Veruca Salt Midnight Oil Reel Big…

Hobbies; What are yours?
When you're not focusing on health or busy working, what do you like to do? I love books. Any kind of book. I'm a book *kitten*. I also like geocaching, something that makes most people say "WTF is that?" After geocaching, I grab another book. Cooking, via a grill or smoker makes me very happy. Especially when I have to…

Former smokers
How'd you quit? So many different things work for different people. I've heard success stories varying from cold turkey to acupuncture. What worked for you, and how long ago did you quit?

Make it up as you go story thread
The story can take any turn you want... Once upon a time, there was a woman working out at the gym. She was bench pressing 760 pounds without a spotter. Suddenly, there was a ruckus at the back of the gym and.....

What's your favorite app?
Other than fitness apps, what are your favorite apps on your phone? I'm glued to the game Dooors (the ultimate time suck) recently. Most frequently used on my phone is probably the geocaching app. Yours?

50 Shades fans
I haven't read this series yet, and i think I'm one of the only women out there who hasn't. The past couple of times I went to Target, I saw three women toss the book in their cart in the time it took me to read a back jacket of another book, and the two women behind me in line yesterday had it in their cart. What am I…

Been here a bit, time to say hi...
Hi all, I've been on MFP for about a month now, stalking the boards but never posting. Figured it was time I introduced myself. I'm a mom of 2 great boys. I'm working on eating healthier and getting some muscle on :) Look forward to getting to know you all.
