Don't know. When I go to a club I don't see any 20 year olds doing those things. Also the part of holland where I live people don't drink before they go out. They drink in a club and do funny/crazy things. We party till 4 AM. Belgium people party till 6 or 7 AM.

In my experience it's nowhere near as bad as it's made out to be. It's just some words that became popular. Everything else is the same as it always was.

My hometown is too small for a Weatherspoons; the ones in the surrounding towns are pretty shit though, one filled with miserable old men and gyppo families, the other pretends it's a nightclub and ID's you about 7 times before you can get to the bar.

I prefer my hometown, which is a wretched give of scum and villainy, but on an MCAT frenzy.

I think it's important to clarify whether we're talking about students or older blokes here.

Students make up the majority of drinking culture, although it's a little exaggerated. A lot of the time they're playing up to the advertised image of "the lad" rather than actually being that person. I used to be a student. Me and my mates had plenty of "messy nights" where we'd "get our swag on". We weren't chavs, we were a bunch of fucking nerds doing Computer Science. It's the image, it sucks you in.

In older people, this drinking culture you see depicted everywhere barely exists. Most "normal" guys I know go drinking maybe once or twice a month and nobody says "lad" or "banter".

>anecdotal evidence

basically the same as america

What kind of shitty part of Holland is that? Also what shitty part of Holland do you live that you only party to 4 AM. Tekneu afterparty till 10 AM, bitch.

Depends major places will probably play a mix of dance, dubstep and indie bands like Kasier Chiefs or Kasabian.

It has nothing to do with proportioning, if you don't have a well rounded work out, you just wont really make gains(the guy in the pic is an exception because of roids)

theres a reason bodybuilders (who are on insane ammounts of roids) dont train the same shit more than twice a week. you are over training and have proved you dont know shit. you need time to let things repair. you probably dont train hard enough otherwise the DOMs would stop you from training the next day

Oh god, just fucking kill yourself. It's common knowledge that excessive isolation is nothing short of dangerous and will give you no gains at all. I bet you aren't even eating properly.

Get on a bare bones compound-centered routine, sort your eating out, or don't fucking work out.

>>
>>3999936
no...but training EVERYDAY doesnt allow the muscle to repair itself properly. my DOMs go away after a few days. lets say you get some DOMs after day one..muscle doesnt repair from that but you train it again. more DOMs. then again the next day and so on....its stupid. you are stupid. you dont know shit. go curl in the squat rack and wear one of those tight shirts with huge stupid v necks

Actually I'm just banned on LoL and I have nothing to do with my time currently. This is fun for me.

>implying anyone not drinking alcohol or eating fast food is missing out, or depriving themselves of happiness
If I would deprive myself of alcohol I would deprive myself of good memorable night's out where we I do dumb shit. It would deprive me of doing something I like, which I dont really want to. I could probably do without the fastfood, but meh.

Why so buttdevastated though? You really spend too much time on /fit/ in their circlejerk. It's much like turning misogynistic from too much time on /r9k/, you actually lost track of what regular people care about.

It's a daily routine on here that someone curses the world because they told him he would get mad bitches if he worked. Thos people then worked out and shit and were still too socially inept to get girls and regretted putting in so much effort.

Allow me to explicate, if you will.

"Gentlemen, let us depart for adventure on the following terms: we presently find ourselves on a Saturday, and therefore lack both engagement and obligation on the morrow. Therefore, we should don our Gorringe breeches and attend the local cocktail lounge for a trichotomy of the consumption of alcoholic beverages, a light-hearted social conference between ourselves and, ultimately, to find ourselves beneath the petticoats of the local matrons with whom we shall engage in rigorous bouts of intercourse with."
