Taking the ‘yak (kayak) out tomorrow 🤙🏼 for some offshore fishing to feed my fiancée

@micbwilli I think the traditional style is with heel raised off. But flat is more ergonomic

@Selma Damn. I am sorry. That's gutsy of you to share. Obviously you have no blame, you're not responsible for the psychological / biochemical influencers that harmed your sibling.

kayaks scare me tbh

I don't trust em

It's probably because my mother had them in her late 30s

I can do it longer flat footed. If my heel is raised it hurts after a bit.

@⚡Clark⚡ I am a canoe partisan, but I wish you well weather and a good time.

@Selma My mom was 40 when I was born and I'm doing pretty fine.

We have little-to-no control over our family members. My younger brother reproduced with a full blood Aztec....

Your mileage may vary, Mr. pantz.

@Wood-Ape - OK/MN Tried today but the weather was cursed

@Argument of Perigee Unfortunate and Corn-Pilled

I'm sorry to hear that, Argument of Perigee.

@ThisIsChris Based on some formula I googled, 20% body fat for a 30 year old male would be 24.85 BMI

@⚡Clark⚡ Canoes are rough on the sea, but better than kayaks on lakes

But the article says that formula is only a very rough estimate

So idk how accurate that is

@Selma True. She was also super trad. She has never drank or done drugs in her life. She gave up all sugar, coffee, and tea when she was pregnant with my brother and me.

@Wood-Ape - OK/MN definitely true

@Nemets I think the "Gen Z based" meme is male specific and has a geographic component.

And I don't think it's very accurate at all frankly because I have like 12% body fat and my BMI isn't a lot lower than that

@Sherlock interesting thanks. So 20% is under the 30+ BMI on @Nemets maps

Kayaks have no point on lakes tbh

@micbwilli - What a lovely mother you must have, or have had.

@⚡Clark⚡ I see them sometimes during my summers up north. Odd choice. Portaging kayaks is burdensome

I think BMI varies a bit by height & build

@⚡Clark⚡ why not a row boat?

@Nemets those are strictly political views. Culturally, GenZ is an improvement over millennials- but we will see.

@ThisIsChris BMI of 30 is about 30% body fat. That's not by design, but it works out close on population level.

LE COOKIES ARE READY

@John O - those are cookies?

Is that soup?

or cookie cakes in ramakins?

@Selma She's still around. At 72 she still works 40 - 50 hours a week.

It's caramel custard

@Nemets Demoralizing and blackpilled. Then again, 5% of the population is more than enough to push a snowball.

*COPES*

@Deleted User I’ve been wanting to get a small aluminum boat for a while. Problem is I need a hitch installed on my suv and a trailer

Jesus, shortpants. You've got lucky genetics.

Eventually tho
