You hold a rubber band with two fingers and use it to throw a paper clip, how hard can that be?

I was thinking that, but then taking the selfie would be the tricky part. 
 

1. put rubber band around 3&4th digits.

2. loop part of paper clip through rubber band with other hand

3. Grab paperclip with thumb and index

4. Take selfie with other hand

 

That is how I would do it. Still be tough I think. You may kill a co-worker in the process

[Junjie]

Ask a co-worker to take the pic. "Do it, or I'll kill you with this."

Oh shitd guys I never actually uploaded my photo lmao

 

Check out our kitchen sink since our bathroom one was disgusting when I took this

 

 

A drug store blood pressure monitor being used by you.
OR
A break room with an employees only sign, a fridge and some sort of food/drink item. I will accept the employees only sign in a separate picture ONLY if I can tell it’s the same room.

Nooooooo I just got home from work and I think I could totally do these lmao. I might be able to get em done by the 19th maybe

Yeah it's still higher than 'normal' but I just got home from work, with a stressful drive on the way, so maybe my BP was elevated slightly due to that xD

[jaredyne]

Haha weird coincidence, I ended up at hospital and got my blood pressure tested today. But I don't think they would have appreciated me taking a picture so....

Ignore my stupid face. They moved the bp machine at Walmart and I was not prepared for the whole pharmacy to watch me take selfies. And my bp is exactly one point below high for each of them  IMG_5851.JPG   79.31KB   0 downloads

Wow, what are all those numbers?!  I'm only used to seeing bp and pulse.

I have no idea.

Your time to shine, @Kaddict.

 

But really, those numbers don't mean much other than for people with cardiovascular issues.

[Coops]

I know I can get at least 2 of these. I just have to remember to do them. XD

 

QUESTION: Does the blood pressure monitor need to be INSIDE the drugstore?

Yes. You need to be using a blood pressure cuff INSIDE a store.

 

I was gonna say "NO EXCEPTIONS" but then I realized idk if she means one of the actual table machines or a BP monitor you can purchase at a drug store. I have plenty of blood pressure cuffs, but if it is the store one I will probably end up doing the gym and piano one. I like this round:

"Do one of these 5 things that you can do during your normal day to day activities... or sloth" ha

Table machine or regular cuff works, but it has to be used in the store.

Your time to shine, @Kaddict.

 

But really, those numbers don't mean much other than for people with cardiovascular issues.

Pulse pressure is the difference between systolic and diastolic pressures, essentially the difference between when your heart is full of blood, and when it is contracted.

MAP is 1/3 of your systolic plus 2/3 of your diastolic pressure, or your diastolic plus 1/3 of your pulse pressure. (sometimes people prefer to focus on this number, especially in ICU settings, because this gives a somewhat easy description of the average perfusion of blood to your body, as sometimes people with really high pulse pressures have separate issues)

Heart rate is how fast the thing in your chest pumps

 

Also, the new guidelines that they are basing that off of (120/80 being high normal) is total garbage. Honestly, I would much rather be at 130/80 than I would be at 90/60. Too much lower than 90/60 and you are at risk of passing out at a moments notice. Your BP is just perfect.

The hidden achievement for round 3 was:
I’ll Take Mine To-Go: Beverage has a straw OR is in some sort of fast food / to-go cup.

Congratulations to @Dan, @Kat, @Jess, @Lollita, @Adam, @Trichomes, @Kaddict, @Padme and @Junjie!


Standings

Let me know if I made a mistake. Y'all still have over 24 hours for round 4!  Make sure that your photos meet the requirements completely or you will not be awarded the point(s).

Who drinks Manhattans with a straw 

[Coops]

Who drinks Manhattans with a straw 

Not you, apparently.

[Adam]

Wow! So many people got the bonus points this round, well done everyone .

[Rocket]

I almost put a straw in mine but I thought the bonus would be drinking from the cup lol. Oh well!

[Trichomes]

 

 

This shit makes me anxious.

 

 

 

Look what I found! 

[Karla]

Yes. You need to be using a blood pressure cuff INSIDE a store.

 

WELP, I know where I'm going after work tomorrow.

[Drakonid]

yeah, the office is a mess...

[Padme]

 

If you want to see my results:

 

 

I couldn't get them in the same photo properly so =) 

[Jozie]

I almost put a straw in mine but I thought the bonus would be drinking from the cup lol. Oh well!

I thought this too after posting my picture lol... so I was like Hmmmmm do I retake the picture drinking it or leave the one I posted... I left the one I posted lol. This was a good bonus! I should've thought more outside the box!!!! Love it!

[Strategist]

Welp, I'm out for round 4 then, don't have time to get to a 'drug store' to get a photo with a BP machine as I work when they're open and thought my personal one would suffice

 

Our staff room/cafeteria at work doesn't have 'Employee Only' signs, so that's out. I don't work at, or have access to any form of office for a photo at a cubicle etc. I also don't have access to a yoga studio/gym. Our zoo here has no sloths. I sure as shit don't know where I could get a pic with a grand piano either....

 

Oh well.
