any recommendations?

my current one is for hardfloors only (no brush), and I moved to a carpeted apartment. going for best-bang-for buck; nothing shitty, but also dont want to spend $300+ plus unless it really is worth it.

The best type is wet dry vacuum cleaner.

http://www.ebay.com/bhp/wet-dry-vacuum

This is what you use when you want to get clean anything. Another plus is you don't need paper sacks which are usual super expensive.

These beasts can swallow anything, dirt, rocks, spilled water, anything.
>>
Search online for Panasonic, with a bag, preferably an upright (as opposed to canister since you have carpet everywhere). If you do get a canister, it obviously should have a powered brush head.

>Another plus is you don't need paper sacks which are usual super expensive.
Compared to the increased maintenance needs of bagless vacs, bagged models are usually cheaper in the long term. Plus the expensive ones are usually name brand bought in store. You can find compatible off-brand bags online for dirt cheap.

What you're suggesting is pretty overkill for an apartment IMO, unless you usually drag half of the outdoors into your living room.

Hey /adv/
As a 21 year old Virgin, I thought to myself, even if I get in a relationship, or find a potential gf, how will I get over the fact I haven't had experiences yet?
I mean should I just be open about it, that's it's all new to me, and reveal my loserself, if I havend had it going for me this long, why would it now the girl would think. Or should I pretend knowing the relationship will be doomed just for experience's sake?
Questions about past relationships are like the first things that get asked on a date. And even getting her to meet my parents, they never seen me with a girl, it will just be so unnatural and awkward. How will I ever a functioning relationship, or how can I proceed to thinking about kids and family having this gap of virginity for God knows how long..

Play it by ear, it isnt as intimidating as you think, in a few months ask her if theres anything you could do to improve

Same shit here, but I'm 18. Could've had a girl like three times but there always goes something wrong in my emotionally fucked up brain that I might be gay or an autist. Valium numbs the pain well. Cigarettes take care of the excessive passion and coffee makes me run. From what?

What the fuck. Just tell the girl how you feel, what you felt and what worries you. If she can't accept this mental shit we have to struggle with, send the bitch to hell. Or put on Defenestration song by Have A Nice Life and kill the bitch, push her out of the window, whatever.

Fucking hell, I am pissed of as hell. Breaking shit. Sorry man for stealing your thread.
>>
Calm down. Tbh, I think if a girl knows you're a virgin they're going to think its cute (I mean, if youre decent looking I guess). Girls love being the guys first something. The fact that you don't have experience means nothing but please don't take tips from porn, it's never like that irl. You decide if you want to be open about this. I think the girl would appreciate it. If she's not a bitch she'll be real nice about it and make sure you're comfortable. Don't think about kids and a family yet. First you need a girl, then everything will come pretty naturally. Take it step by step.

I fucking love butch manly lesbians who don't shave their pits and have boycuts. I'm a straight male.

How do I convince lesbians to fuck me and love me?

Got this burning feeling around the base of my dick and the area between my balls and my thighs. Actually the whole area feels kind of awkward. Has been the same for a few days now and I don't see anything that indicates fungus. Didn't have sex for 6 weeks so it's unlikely it is an std either. Also doesn't show any signs of being raw but feels that way. It seems to be better when I'm taking a bath. No pain when getting an errection or peeing.
Anyone ever had something like this?

How do I get laid? How can I find a girl that's down to fuck? I have no luck on online dating apps, and please don't recommend hookers.

For the record, I am on the path of self improvement but I just can't find a girl I can cuddle with every weekend night.

This post turned out longer than I expected so beware.

How do I stop setting excessively high performance demands on myself?
I dislike self diagnosing myself like this, but in order to describe my situation I'm going to say that I suffer from some kind of perfectionism. At least that's what I think. I have for some time now been setting unrealistic goals that I can never achieve and it's starting to get tiresome. I always have these thoughts in the back of my head saying that I need to do something productive all the time or to learn everything there is to learn, when I for example study a new subject.

A great example is collage. I take my studies seriously and I try do my best there, but I always feel like I'm never doing enough. I always compare myself to my peers and think less of myself when I don't perform as well as they do. It's kind of demoralizing for me because at collage, I'm constantly surrounded by these really talented people about my own age that know more and also have achieved so much more than me. Regular thoughts go something along the lines with: "Why haven't you also done everything that X has?", "How come that you don't know as much as X does?" and "Look how hard X is studying right now, why aren't you also studying equally as hard?". It's not only that I compare myself with my peers. I compare myself with different professors and Ph.D students at my collage as well, thinking to myself that I'm inferior for not being at their level. It sounds absurd I know, but It is what I do on a daily basis.

> cont.

Another thing that I also have noticed recently is that I freak out whenever I don't remember things that I have studied in previous courses, especially previous math courses. If I know that I'm uncertain of something, I get the thoughts telling me that I will never succeed in future courses and, if I even make it that far, my future work life.

I am aware of that I'm not really in the position of whining over the fact that I'm not smart enough or haven't achieved enough, when I don't have the self discipline to invest the time needed to do so. Even when I do decide on that I should learn something new, it doesn't take long before I lose all motivation to continue because "I will never become an expert at it anyway". It often results in me trying to escape reality by play video games, which makes the whole thing even worse. It's feels like I'm trapped in an evil circle very much like pic related and it has become really exhausting.

So all in all, how do I break this negative behavior?
Thank you in advance.

Hey OP,
My Psychologist told me to never compare to other people. Always compare to past yourself.
Stupid Cunt didn't tell me how to do that so I'm in the same boat as you.
>>
>>17016570

Haha I'm sorry. I've heard people say that it is unfair to compare yourself to others because you don't have the same background and conditions. Skilled and talented people have devoted their entire life to doing that one thing they really love. Practice makes perfect, which means that it is only natural that they will be more skilled than you at their subject. That being said it is not impossible for you to rise to their level, it just takes time and devotion. I like to imagine it as an online multiplayer game. Say that you just created a new character, your stats are at the lower limit and you see a really high level player. I mean, it's illogical to think that you should just obtain that players stats in the blink of an eye without lifting a finger. No, it would take an immense amount of grinding to get to the point where they are at.

It's weird that I can reason like this and still struggle with these issues

As long as it is close to work, why not live in a cheap apartment?

Benefits include a short commute and cheap rent, easy access to downtown areas, and walkable or bikeable neighborhoods.

I could even buy a cheap place if I want.

Depends on your town. My town is relatively safe, so at worst I might get my car broken into. But in other towns you could get shot or mugged. I'd say no, if you're white you're a walking target.

I can tell I'm starting to close off and just shut down in general. I've always been a self-LESS person. I used to always put others before myself. But now it seems just the opposite. I've been trying to improve myself physically and mentally. But doing so is causing me to shut off from people. I don't know why, but it is. I just feel really lost and confused. Also, extremely jaded and bitter. I'm not sure what to do.

Basically. I just want to keep to myself as much as possible. Be alone, and workout. That's literally all I can think about. But it upsets me because I think it's effecting my few friendships.

You swung from one awful extreme to the other.

Being selfless isn't a virtue. It's not even just wrong. It's one of the worst possible things a person can do to himself. You are the only human being on this planet responsible for your interests. Abandoning your responsibility to yourself is no better than having abandoned an absolute responsibility to anyone else. What's more, at some level you necessarily put the burden for your interests onto other people. After all if you're not looking after them, someone has to.

But now you've finally embraced your self-interest in a hug so damn tight that you're being myopic. While you are responsible for yourself, you cannot fulfill those needs without the participation of other people. In the most basic sense this is because you will at times have dire needs which exceed your capabilities. You will fall ill, you will face disaster, you will reach the limits of your single mind and body. But in the bigger picture you're also not an island unto yourself. You live in a world where 7 billion other human lives impact you in greater or lesser ways. When those lives intersect with your needs, the resolution of those problems requires involvement with their source. Put simply you'll need to deal with the interests of other people in order to serve your own. (e.g., the tragedy of the commons)

You cannot be alone and find peace there. Nor can you find it in your old habits, because no one is going to deliver you your happiness. The answer is somewhere in the middle. You need to take responsibility for your life as a self-interested individual while respecting that "responsibility" doesn't mean "do it all myself." It means being in charge of finding the fulfillment of yours needs AND the people in life who can help you with that task.

I hate myself. And I've been depressed over the years. So I finally decided to do something about it. I'm "re-inventing" myself completely. New clothes, look, trying to learn a new language, working out again, teaching myself to cook, and I am trying to travel alone. But that's all I want to do. I don't want to be around any people or talk to anyone. I used to always like to go hang out with people. But now I just want to be completely isolated.

/pol/, I am honestly struggling with keeping myself alive. Day after day the urge to kill myself grows even stronger. I don't know what to do to fix this feeling, nothing helps.

Driving down the freeway I struggle to not jerk the fucking wheel as hard as I can at 100MPH into a guard rail or tree.

Come home from work my urge to grab my shotgun and blow my brains out is becoming hard to ignore.

I'm doing everything I can to shake this feeling and survive because I know it makes me somewhat of a coward to end my life. I can barely sleep because my mind can't do anything except think about ending my life.

Hey /adv/, sorry if this belongs on /fit/ or something else but I really need advice on the best way to work out my body. I'm not fat, I weigh 145 pounds, I'm 5'10, I'm actually pretty slim but I'd like to have an actual nice body to look at. I'm not looking to be ripped, pic related would honestly be fine for me. So what are some good work outs or exercises I can try to work out my stomach/chest? Also, any foods or activities I should avoid? I am a guy, and also my chest are stomach are a bit hairy, would it be wise to shave? Again, pic is not me, just sort of what I'm looking for.

If just waant to look tonnes start doing some skipping every day, and a bit of jogging if you feel. If your looking for power, push ups situps squats and pull ups and a good stretching session.
