I could but there’s something about having the sound come from a different source than where my game is from that helps me concentrate on both. Like I could legit listen to an audiobook and have someone talk to me and it’s fine. But if two people are talking in the same room and one of them is talking to me, my brain jumps back and forth and short circuits.

Because theyre practically deaf because they didnt wear ear protection because its the macho thing to do.

Just using a circular saw you can get hearing damage. Same thing with a hammer.

Cue obligatory Bear Grylls meme.

GIVE THE PEOPLEEEEEEE WHAT THEY WAAAANTTTT

I'm the same way listen to music and a documentary while being a chef can't imagine anything less would keep me in this world

The worse is when they start gagging too, and then you all are throwing the fuck up. I don’t see anything wrong that OP did.

yep i was gonna type that too but had already hit send lol

> I work as a carpentry apprentice

If you can make some vibrating anal beads in the shop, you will get a promotion!

If you do this on a computer you could pull up your audiobook or podcast in a web browser or application, that way you only need 1 headphones

I hope your comment was meant as a joke.

Obviously never worked a trade job. He’s gonna be ‘anal bead guy’ at his job basically until he leaves there, if not longer.

I know a guy who dropped his phone in the shitter on the job, in the blue water. People have called him blue ever since. That was 20 years ago.

I used to listen to music and then podcasts. But now I find audiobooks to be the best way to minimize distractions. I also listen while I’m cleaning or doing literally anything that I need to minimize distractions. If I need to concentrate hard on something and the book is becoming the distraction, I turn it off. Otherwise, I’ve got sound in my ears.

My ADHD friends hard core plan and make lists. I just distract my brain so I don’t get distracted. If that makes any sense. 😂

I played basketball in high school, which comes with a great deal of running obviously. The only time I puked running was when we had a scheduled half day at school so we all grabbed some fast food before practice. I couldn’t eat at that place for years. But yeah it doesn’t necessarily mean out of shape. Where I live, it’s still fairly warm out, maybe they got overheated

Nah when he said he was working carpentry I pretty much knew he didn’t lose his job. I worked as a framer for half a decade when I was younger. Nothing that is said on the radio could get you fired from a carpentry job. I’m pretty sure I could have told my boss I ass fucked his mom with a glitter covered dildo and not been fired as long as I was there on time and could swing a hammer.

I was gonna say, the guy more than likely was trying to convey 'nah, I'm good, just pukin here for a min no big catcha later' and was also probably embarrassed as shit. But that got-dang non-verbal!

Mate, don't sweat it. They were obviously alright afterwards, and its not like you ignored them on the side of the track. The simple fact you checked in makes it all good :-]

I'm in medium shape and I pushed myself to puking once trying to get a 5k PB

Just ask them to bring you some water please. That way you can get rid of puke mouth immediately after finishing or at least stopped puking.

At least that's what I would like to have a helping hand for.

The first and only time I was ever drunk I was being driven home by a friend, my wife was in the back with my friends wife, and I had the state of mind to tell them I needed to throw up. He pulled over into a fast food parking lot, and I climbed out into the grass and started throwing up.

My friend Mike, who was driving gets out, and starts running his fingers through my hair telling me I'll be okay and that I'll feel better once it's all out.

That's the only thing I remember about that night, and it was the safest I felt in a weird and foreign situation I was in.

This wasn't worth posting bro

Lol no fuck up here. We laugh when freinds get hurt or simply walk away it’s normal

And if they're anything like me, the world kinda goes to mush and my ears start ringing, blood rushing, can't hear shit. They probably couldn't understand a word being said lol

You asked them if they needed help, you didn't fuck up! I hate being sick, I always want to be left alone. There's nothing more you could have done.

Exactly this. Also, when you see them tomorrow ask them if they are feeling better.

Be kind. Be cool. Done and done.
