Have you ever been faced with anything close to a 2 hour commute? I'll go ahead and assume no as yours was a fucking asinine assumption.

I sure don't have the energy to do 8 hours of anything active after 8 hours of work. Very individual, and depends on what the work is too.

So we agree it's not a time issue. It's a priority issue.

6 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

I mean, not necessarily? If you're tired out by your job you can't make more energy by prioritizing. Unless "don't work" is an option.

Extremely good point. I can manage this but my commute is only 15 minutes and I only sleep about 5 hours a day so I end up with time.

If your commute is exercise, becomes much easier to get that exercise in.

6 years ago | Likes 18 Dislikes 8

I don't get how people commute for 1-2 hours a day by car then spend 2-6 hours in a gym every week.

6 years ago | Likes 8 Dislikes 2

Becomes easier when it becomes a stress outlet. Consider how many play video games, watch TV or fuck around on Imgur for 2-6 hours a week.

6 years ago | Likes 7 Dislikes 0

But it can be a stress outlet just as well when commuting? I bike 1hr to get to work and it's a hell of a workout.
