Wait... people get dopamine from exercise?!

It's just a meme. Literally not science at all. Not even close.

I feel it more now that I'm exercising unmedicated (against my wishes, but oh well). Anyway, I'm pretty much raw dogging everything, so when I do my little exercise routine with the dumbbell by my desk, I'm surprised at how noticeably better I feel.

It's pretty hard to leave gym in worse mood than you arrived in.

My buddy dropped a weight plate on his middle finger and severed it right below the nail.

We could use any other torture method just as effectively.

Anybody would be in a bad mood that they have a torture appointment and then very happy that it's over.
