When did you take this picture of me??
Actually my back hurts because your mother damaged it with her large mass when we were engaged in coitus.
Nah it's because I don't have enough monitors.
Need a 4th one to balance things out nicely
But then you won't have a middle one to look straight ahead. Go for 5 instead
real solution for most people would be to start exercising
Well this and a shorter work day/week so one doesn't have to chose between a social life, a healthy body, home upkeep, child care, and self care. Maybe sprinkle in some accessible and free healthcare both physical and mental. Idk, wouldn't be the first time i was wrong about something.
TL;DR your back hurts because you're poor.
Nah, OP is just being elitist trying to justify those purchases. (not that they're bad ideas, just unnecessary)
The real answer is posture and lack of stretching and exercize. Unless you have an underlying issue like scoliosis, stretching and exercize fix 90% of the aches and pains young people whine about with "getting old" in their 30's.
Pretty sure OP is sarcastic
Yea, it's a meme. Though sadly a lot of people I run into unironically think the meme is the best solution.
Until knowledge becomes laughably common, I'm going to try to spread what is best. Especially when the better option is way cheaper.
Your back hurts because you keep the same posture even when your body tells you not to.
When you have a job, and say work for 3-4 hours, your body will tell you to stop and do something else for a couple hours. But you can’t cause life.
The ergonomic stuff are fulfilling their purpose by giving you a decent posture, your just holding it too long.
This is also why being rich would be a solution, even those who are rich but work, they aren’t working 40 hours every week nonstop. It’s also why they are so keen that “golf meetings” are so effective.
have standing desk, always lowered
"Hmmm, I'm going to write you a prescription for 75% more RGB LED backlighting"
I have all those things, but my back hurts because I fucked it up on my 20's moving file cabinets at a minimum wage job.
I do consider it the reason i don't have carpal tunnel after 30 years of IT/Code/Sysadmin though.
I hate that planking is the best exercise for strengthening your lower back. They’re just so boring to do.
You can spice them up with alternating leg raises or do a superman or bird dog. There are also loads of other exercises that work. The best exercise isn't the most effective one, it's the one you actually do consistently
The best exercise is the one you actually do
That’s how I finally got to exercise regularly. First, I spend way too long trying to hype myself up for running. Never happened. I hate running. No amount of convenience can convince me. Then I started hiking and yoga and swimming and whatever came my way. Sure, I don’t have any sort of routine, but I do some sport very regularly!
Deadlifts would like a word!
Also they are more fun, you feel like a super hero that can lift a house, and it's a compound lift!
Agreed. Planks and cardio are my downfall because they are mind numbingly boring
While dumb expensive the Aeron chair makes sitting at a desk all day do able and not painful.
I could have sworn it was due to the severe injury I sustained, but who am I to argue with science?
~~Degenerative disc disorder~~ bad mouse
Hundreds of upvotes on a shitpost can't be wrong!
Could also be kidney stones
Or lupus.
It's never lupus.
I use a trackball mouse. That must be why my back is doing great.
i find trackballs fascinating because i really like it but everybody else in the family fucking hate it as if kicked the dog or something. on the brighter side of things - everybody gave up on snooping around on my desktop
no, my lower back hurts because i got impaled there. it hurts less because i have a chair with a double rocker and well positioned monitors
Jokes on you! I do all of that and it still hurts!
Oh good, I thought it was from the repeated hard pounding in the ass.
split keyboard recs?
I have a Lily58 that I love. I put mine together myself (save for soldering. The place I found mine offered a service to do that before shipping) so it’s a bit different looking than this one shown in their preview, but it’s the same layout.
