If you’ve never deadlifted before, yeah, it’s not an ideal choice. If you’re intentionally doing deficit deadlifts though, or your body is just shaped such that the extra height makes the movement more comfortable, then it’s not the worst choice. Those hard soles probably provide a better, more solid base than the running shoes I see a lot of people lifting in. Ankle mobility probably leaves a little to be desired though.
I’m here / to remind you / of the cross-eyed bear that you gave to me.
(I used to think the line was about her ex refusing to return to her a teddy bear that he apparently gave her as a gift. Which rather fits with the song’s theme and just seems dickish and spiteful on the ex’s part.)
They're open on Boxing Day, as stated in the post. It's only usually businesses run by people that don't celebrate Christmas that are open (like Chinese restaurants, and that one gas station run by a Pakistani family in my old rural town that saved my hide in 2012 by being open after I forgot to get gas on Christmas Eve).
Most movie theaters are open Christmas Day in the US as well, not just boxing day. I’ve been to quite a few movies on the 25th. Tons of major films are released Christmas Day because it’s such a high grossing day in the industry
Hm, I guess I have seen that, but never considered that it could be a high-grossing day. My wife's family would burn us in effigy if we tried to suggest leaving the house during the day so I've never really thought of it much.
If we don't come to Christmas it's as though we've killed the very concept of happiness. We'd never hear the end of it if they found out we went to a movie instead.
I worked in a movie theater as a kid, and Christmas Day was the highest grossing day of the year. Families came in all wearing coordinated Christmas outfits, saying all sad, “Aw I hope you get to spend time with your family today.”
