  • Has so much money he can walk all day without becoming homeless.

You have very different walkers in your neighborhood than I have in mine

Or, they already are homeless.

[–] ameancow@lemmy.world 8 points 1 week ago

The absolute best time for you to walk is when you're exhausted after working. Trust me, try it.

Meanwhile my knees: AHHHHHHHHH

Not relatable? Just a me problem?

[–] crazycraw@crazypeople.online 34 points 1 week ago (1 children)

have you considered unaging ?

[–] Rusty@lemmy.ca 5 points 1 week ago

Like eating a lot of Japanese eels?

[–] TrojanRoomCoffeePot@lemmy.world 15 points 1 week ago (2 children)

It's not as bad if you walk 'off trail' in cities/suburbs. I'm convinced that a lot of the Runner's Knees has to do with pounding cardio on hard-packed Earth, asphalt and concrete instead of forested/green areas.

[–] Aeao@lemmy.world 11 points 1 week ago

Beach here, my knees don’t hurt no.

[–] maltasoron@sopuli.xyz 8 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Yeah, I can even notice the difference when doing plyometrics on my wooden living room floor versus on the tiles in the garden (the lawn is very shitty and can't take it).

The lawn, I feel that pain. Field sports on a dry pitch is a little like doing it on stone once it dries out enough due to lack of rain, that shit can really hurt, even without getting tackled down onto it lol

Do you even squat, bro?

[–] ameancow@lemmy.world 9 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

Lose a little weight, get good shoes, gentle stretches before walking, see a doctor to make sure you're not doing actual damage. Maybe try walking on dirt/sand/grass too, asphalt and concrete are rough on your body.

[–] SaharaMaleikuhm@feddit.org 6 points 1 week ago

What good are legs if you can't even walk?

[–] Agent641@lemmy.world 30 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I once walked 20 Kilometers, then I was tired, so I walked back.

[–] andros_rex@lemmy.world 28 points 1 week ago (2 children)

"Just walking, Mr. Mead?"

"Yes."

"But you haven't explained for what purpose."

"I explained; for air, and to see, and just to walk."

"Have you done this often?"

"Every night for years."

The police car sat in the center of the street with its radio throat faintly humming.

"Well, Mr. Mead," it said.

"Is that all?" he asked politely.

"Yes," said the voice. "Here." There was a sigh, a pop. The back door of the police car sprang wide. "Get in.”

"Wait a minute, I haven't done anything!"

"Get in."

I do love a good walk.

My two favourite are a beautiful hill/mountain walk in the sun with a light breeze to keep me cool or at night through a sleepy town or village with a light fog where the orange streetlights shine through.

Both are so peaceful, it helps calm my anxiety.

[–] The_Picard_Maneuver@piefed.world 17 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Walks are so good for anxiety - some light exercise, a little bit of sun, time to collect your thoughts without screens or distractions. It's sort of meditative.

[–] TrojanRoomCoffeePot@lemmy.world 11 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Don't forget that your odds of finding and petting the roving neighbourhood cats increases as you walk more vs. driving.

[–] rudyharrelson@lemmy.radio 9 points 1 week ago (2 children)

And the potential for finding loot.

I've found neat things on the side of the road by walking around my home, ranging from brass knuckles to a case with 3 Nintendo Switch cartridges inside. I tried to find the owner of the games (probably a kid who dropped it when getting off the school bus) but was unable to.

I like the cut of your jib. The real gems I've found were literally that, rings and earrings of varying quality/value. I credit video games for the habit, it always pays dividends finding random partially-concealed valuables on the ground. This doesn't even count the number of (rarely) full/half-full packs of cigarettes, which sometimes contain other substances from nugs to hash and beyond.

[–] shalafi@lemmy.world 5 points 1 week ago

My wife and I sometimes cruise the hood looking for goodies on the side of the road. I could go on forever with what all we've dragged home.

Got a nice radiant stove a few months back, all but new, very clean. One night we scored a brand new wine fridge, huge one, along with a nice solid-wood desk for my son and a brand new countertop oven, never used.

LOL, she often hits the flea market and drags home $200+ on a Saturday with all the crap we find. I'm thinking of going all in since I can't find an IT job.

[–] ThePyroPython@lemmy.world 9 points 1 week ago

Agreed. I can find it hard but I try to not use headphones to listen to music or an audiobook every time I go for a walk. I'm trying to get myself comfortable with my own thoughts and let them wash over me so my brain can eventually calm and relax without distraction.

Just let the walk itself be the gentle stimulation.

[–] shalafi@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago

My idea of a good walk is weather cool enough to wear jeans and combat boots, and a fight to get through the forest and find new spots on the creek, or new spots in general. Huge bonus if I get some wildlife in my sights. Saw a black bear momma with two cubs last winter!

I'm at maximum peace when I crawl out, safe and sound, about to drop dead and thank god I'm still alive, hydrated, and didn't get hurt or stuck overnight.

My wife likes your sort of walk, and I would too, now and again. We walk around the hood, far more boring than your walks. :)

Everyday

  • everyday: mundane, usual
  • every day: daily

I think OOP is in the wrong lane.

The trick is to have a dog. You can walk anywhere, at any time, and people won't even notice you or will just take one glance and think, ahh, just someone walking their dog, nothing suspicious or weird about that

[–] ikidd@lemmy.world 5 points 1 week ago (1 children)
[–] Agent641@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago

If you walk around with a dog leash and no dog, you can peek over fences, down driveways, and under cars and not too many people will be concerned.

Just looking for your dog.

My thoughts, too. The body of the guy might be generated, because no human being would draw side pockets on a t-shirt.

[–] CarbonIceDragon@pawb.social 4 points 1 week ago (1 children)

On the other hand, drawing pockets somewhere because you just realized that the way you drew the arm means the hands wont reach the pants, and you really don't feel like trying to draw a hand, is something a human might do.

I’m not sure. There’s just no joke. It could be that’s the joke. Or maybe it was made by someone who really likes walking.

[–] Peter_Arbeitslos@feddit.org 13 points 1 week ago (2 children)

And what's this?

And how the fuck is the text formatted?

[–] magnetosphere@fedia.io 7 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Something I just read past, apparently!

[–] XTL@sopuli.xyz 4 points 1 week ago

As one does.

[–] ameancow@lemmy.world 6 points 1 week ago

A glimpse into the reality that AI has zero understanding of what things actually are, it's only a machine designed to make really good guesses. So good that it seems eerily "alive" at times, but that's just because we're dumber and simpler than we think.

It doesn't know what words are in images, it just knows how they're roughly supposed to look. It's gotten good at not just guessing a bunch of vaguely "letterish looking stuff" but it still makes mistakes. For now.

Get's the cops called on him since he is brown, and the cop curb drops him into a hospital.

It's maybe me I'm a big walker

[–] PugJesus@piefed.social 8 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

Miss long walks terribly. I used to walk everywhere.

[–] loldog191@lemmy.ca 4 points 1 week ago (1 children)

what happened? why'd you stop?

[–] PugJesus@piefed.social 4 points 1 week ago (3 children)

Physical problems. Walking long distances is painful anymore.

[–] loldog191@lemmy.ca 4 points 1 week ago (1 children)

sorry to hear that. i wish you good health and for you to continue going on journeys and adventures in your own ways🫶

Not gonna lie, this would be a halfway decent demigod in a fantasy world. Just A Guy who walked so much that he ascended to a higher level of understanding.

Walking zazen.

[–] Tudsamfa@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago

Even shitposts are too much effort to make by oneself nowadays, huh?

Need AI to do even that.

France was on strike today so I walked to work... I need better shoes for that
