Nepenthe Posted May 28, 2014 Posted May 28, 2014 It's finger cancer man. You're not long for this world. am recalling our boss from the short period o' time we were at us attorney office. guy comes into work with his right hand middle-finger heavily wrapped in gauze-- had a little tube sticking out o' the end o' the bandages. apparently the tube were to allow puss and other nastiness drain from his terrible infected digit. ick. turns out that he got finger lacerated when trying to clear grass from lawnmower. and o'course the mower were running when he tried to clear the grass. this is from almost twenty years ago, so please recognize that average lawnmower were a bit more primitive and dangerous at the time. our boss didn't seem like an idiot, but am guessing we all do extreme stupid stuff from time-to-time. HA! Good Fun! If it had been a splint, I would have assumed setup. I mean, I have an absolute turd of a case with an oral hearing at the court of appeal next Monday, I'd do anything to have an excuse to give everybody the finger there (they gave the junkie that beat my client up a new hearing in the most obvious case in the history of mankind)... You're a cheery wee bugger, Nep. Have I ever said that? Reapercussions

Rosbjerg Posted May 28, 2014 Posted May 28, 2014 Unreal Tournament is one of the best and purest shooters ever. What does the mutator do? Something fun? I remember one mutator that made the pulsegun shoot titan boulders. I'm always amazed at how quick those twitch skills come back when you play for a while.. A mutator is a change to core mechanics, it can be everyone has bobbleheads, or that you heal when you give damage etc. Something that "mutates" the gameplay. Fortune favors the bald.

Labadal Posted May 29, 2014 Posted May 29, 2014 Time for some whining. Saturday: Some on broke into my place. Sunday: Clean up the mess. Monday: Renew debit card, passport, etc. The 1000kr bill I pay with at the police office turns out to be fake. Sit there for an hour, explain you don't know wtf is going on. get a bad headache during the evening. Fever and feeling ill. No sleep at all. Tuesday: Wake up, whole body aching, diarrhea and and headache still a fact. Wednesday: ??? Wednesday: Same as Tuesday.Thursday: Same as the two days before. Plus my brother tells me he has chest pains. Not so bad, he says. Looks like a wreck, I tell him. Order my other brother that has his final exam today to drive my wreck brother to the ER. I call 90 minutes later and ask what is going on. They don't say at first, so I tell them that means something is wrong. Heart inflammation... The moron would not have went if I hadn't ordered him to. I couldn't make this up even if I wanted to. captainpicardwtfisthis****.gif
Walsingham Posted May 29, 2014 Posted May 29, 2014 My doctor says I have "white coat syndrome" which means my blood pressure readings are remarkably unreliable around doctors in white coats... I recommmend you immediately try to get yourself polygraphed. Just to mess with the technicians. Try to see if you can convince them of any really weird 'truths'.

Labadal Posted May 29, 2014 Posted May 29, 2014 Something positive for a change. Turns out my brother didn't have heart inflammation after further tests and readings. I also ate something that has some taste in it. Spaghetti bolognese has never tasted so good in my entire life. I almost cried tears of joy while eating. I ate what I would call a kid's meal, but who cares! Real food! I actually had all of these feelings.
Woldan Posted May 29, 2014 Posted May 29, 2014 Thats good news, people die from heart inflammations. What symptoms does your brother have? Sounds very serious even without an actual inflammation.... I gazed at the dead, and for one dark moment I saw a banquet.
Labadal Posted May 29, 2014 Posted May 29, 2014 Thats good news, people die from heart inflammations. What symptoms does your brother have? Sounds very serious even without an actual inflammation.... Chest pain, but not really where the heart is, slightly under. He can't move his torso right/left without it hurting. He's tired and that's it, I think. No problems with his breathing, etc. It was a nurse that gave the first diagnosis, but then the doctor came and took a look at him and they ran an EKG. Seems it's a virus. last week, he had what I have had this week. The thing is that he went back to working out earlier than he should. Couple that with stress and this is what happened. He'll be on painkillers and can actually go to work if he feels he can. Basically, nothing was done to ease the pain other than the painkillers. As long as it isn't the heart, I will look at this positively. (I will secretly keep an eye on him.)
Woldan Posted May 29, 2014 Posted May 29, 2014 I'm not a doctor but maybe its a minor diaphragm fissure; had that on my right side of the chest, right where the liver is. I think I injured it when I tried to deadlift 180kg or so with bad form. Did your brother lift something very heavy before the pain started? I gazed at the dead, and for one dark moment I saw a banquet.
Labadal Posted May 29, 2014 Posted May 29, 2014 Nah, he woke up in the middle of the night. He seemed perfectly fine the day before and I don't think he had been working out. I'll go pester him for more details later. First, I must make sure that I do not crap my pants unwillingly because I still have no control over my a**.
Gorgon Posted May 29, 2014 Posted May 29, 2014 Price of coffee went up by $0.15, great. Also had some weirdo come up to me and tell me I should use honey in my coffee not sugar for health reasons. Not sure what that was about though. Yes the coffee price was set to go up because of the bad rain in Brazil effecting the coffee crops . That guy is right by the way, honey is better for you..but I suppose you are already so sweet you don't need to become sweeter Trouble is that most honey you buy in supermarkets is so diluted it's basically just syrup with beehive for thickener. Real honey, like what they sell at the side of the road, or increasingly in cities with rooftop hives, has all that goodness from the flowers. 1 Na na na na na na ... greg358 from Darksouls 3 PVP is a CHEATER.

aluminiumtrioxid Posted May 29, 2014 Posted May 29, 2014 So, our DM has decided to try her hand at Dark Heresy... Her: "...and where my character is coming from, there is no crime, because everything was monitored by a master computer, a transhuman intelligence, and everybody can access the archives. In the last 2000 years, Veritas IV has not known war..." Me: "So we have complained about the mary sue factor of your previous campaign... and your answer is to go ahead and throw a whole PLANET OF THEM at us?" *Sigh*. 1 "Lulz is not the highest aspiration of art and mankind, no matter what the Encyclopedia Dramatica says."

ShadySands Posted May 31, 2014 Posted May 31, 2014 (edited) Fantasy Fest is hilariously fun provided you don't mind a lot of people not wearing not a lot of things they shouldn't never not wear. Spent the evening on a mini Star Trek TNG marathon with the missus. She had never seen it and it's on Netflix and I'd been meaning to rewatch the whole series. The starts aligned as the prophecy foretold and much fun was had by all Edited May 31, 2014 by ShadySands 1 Free games updated 3/4/21
Calax Posted May 31, 2014 Posted May 31, 2014 So, an aquaintence is thinking of doing a start up company that's basically a version of the one I'm with that goes to another city (In this case, Iowa City). He keeps prodding me saying that he's gonna drag me into it as manager because I know how to set up everything (which I honestly halfway know), and may be offering me a job in the next few weeks. But I'm not sure if I'd even want to take it given that I've still got about 6 months of classes to go before I have a degree. Victor of the 5 year fan fic competition!
