I have a lowkey but strong desire to see how long I could hang on a bar at one of the nostr:npub12vkcxr0luzwp8e673v29eqjhrr7p9vqq8asav85swaepclllj09sylpugg booths amid bitcoin conferences lately.

It's such a great marketing thing. I'm literally riding my bike around a beautiful neighborhood today like, "I wonder how long I could hang if I really wanted to, though."

Back in my martial arts days, we did pull-up contests. I touched 21 (ironically) at my absolute retarded peak where all I did was optimize for that like an absolute psycho, but couldn't do so today. Not even close.

Never was I measured to just hang, tho. I feel like I could hang for a while and ignore the pain, which is why I'm like, "I want to go to one of these events, seems fun."

I've been so busy at home that I keep turning down events and writing weird stuff, but in the meantime I'm mentally I'm like, "how long could I hang, tho."

LOL I was also hoping nostr:npub12vkcxr0luzwp8e673v29eqjhrr7p9vqq8asav85swaepclllj09sylpugg would be at nostr:npub1w2eget49s60cyeznumcmqczk0xkmhz24ajqgzfyfrugdfl4mz7ns7rpmgp or the Baltic Honeybadger #BH2025 in Riga with those things! They weren't. But the other day I saw a local sports event poster in my hometown and they had a hanging competition in the program! So I went and got a respectable 2nd place (2 minutes 15 seconds)... Not a world-class time, but hey, I also haven't trained for that specifically + been pretty inconsistent with my pullups so I'm quite pleased. Funny thing is, as I had time to kill, I also went and did a 60m run and, surprisingly, got 1st place (8.96 seconds) 🤠 (Mind you, it's a very small, rural area and the event was not oriented at professional athletes at all)
