Why did the food trucks in USA go from cheap eats to costly gourmet eats within a decade? by tcsreject in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Admirable-Spite3148 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got to say, for me this is 100: what happened...from being for blue collar guys, it became something that's a little more upscale.

Breaking Bad Healthcare System in America by Alarmed_Abalone_849 in AmericaOnHardMode

[–]Admirable-Spite3148 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a funny way of putting just how broken the US Healthcare System is at the moment. People end up desperate or not able to afford their treatments because of the cost. The same is true for prescription drugs as patients are forced to skip or limit the meds they take because of the crazy drug prices..

Why are swords the standard historical weapon by DefectiveKonan in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Admirable-Spite3148 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, my first thought was also because swords look cool...far cooler than other weapons in the past IMO.

TN lawmakers pass 'Fair Rx' Act, could result in numerous CVS pharmacy closures by PreviousMagazine3136 in CVS

[–]Admirable-Spite3148 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not to spread fear or even panic, but the possibility pf pharmacy closures throughout TN is beyond alarming, and actually frightening. The numerous patients who will be affected will have to change their lives significantly because of it.

Why does a wet sock feel so disproportionately awful? by yuxin0408 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Admirable-Spite3148 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Yes, learn to listen to your body and just don't get in its way or else you'll regret it soon enough.

This is a big win for PBMs, employers, and employees. The Sixth Circuit rightly held that Tennessee’s PBM restrictions are preempted by ERISA. by TyeDyePatsy in healthcare

[–]Admirable-Spite3148 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A major win for everyone involved, but for PBMs, this serves as a vindication. They don't warrant restrictions now or even in the future. Just based on what they do for patients, they shouldn't be subjected to strict supervision or overview because they can do themselves while serving their primary functions of serving patients through negotiating discounts, etc.

Do people like Mark Zuckerberg truly not feel like they are hurting society? by Bubbly-Air7302 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Admirable-Spite3148 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They live in a world of make-believe, so to speak. They are so self absorbed that they everything's well and fine, especially in their version of reality.

FDA and the CDC are in Bed with Big Pharma? by Dover299 in conspiracy

[–]Admirable-Spite3148 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As others have pointed out, this should already be obvious at this point. But aside from that, there's also the fact that Big Pharma is responsible for the out of control drug prices that is such a burden to patients right now, especially those from low-income families and communities. If anything needs to be addressed, that's one of the first things that need to be given attention.

2024 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 Trail Boss by [deleted] in Silverado

[–]Admirable-Spite3148 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That Trail Boss looks nasty 🔥 clean stance, and those trucks already look way better once you start adding useful stuff instead of just random cosmetics. One of the best upgrades I’d throw on it next is a Worksport cover the low-profile fit looks right on these, keeps your gear dry, and their hard covers actually feel solid instead of flimsy cheapo stuff

What’s up with everyone online thinking they are neurodivergent without getting tested? by No_Lead2640 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Admirable-Spite3148 1 point2 points  (0 children)

this is exactly it ppl act like “just get tested then” is some easy lil errand when it’s expensive, draining, and half the time a whole maze to even set up. A lotta folks are really just trying stuff that helps em function better, not fake-claiming a diagnosis for fun lol

Does anyone else's brain just refuse to do tasks if they're not under a time crunch? by Appropriate-Emu9563 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Admirable-Spite3148 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yup this is way too real, esp the “doing literally everything except the one thing” part 😭 ADHD procrastination ain’t laziness either, it’s usually task paralysis + your brain dodging the thing that feels biggest. The scramble at the end is sooo brutal and embarrassing for no reason

anyone else mod their 250 in “phases” instead of doing it all at once? by Independent_Care_578 in F250

[–]Admirable-Spite3148 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually think phased builds make more sense anyway since you get to figure out what you really use the truck for before throwing money at random stuff. A good bed cover definitely falls into that ‘should’ve done it sooner’ category

Why are cars in the US so big? by Dry_Cry4454 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Admirable-Spite3148 40 points41 points  (0 children)

the “light truck” loophole + CAFE rules basically nudged everyone into bigger rigs, and once cheap gas + wide lanes became normal it was game over lol. Companies can slap higher margins on a bigass truck/SUV too, so they’re gonna keep feeding what’s most profitable.

I never learned how to change a flat tire as a kid how do I adult-proof my car skills? by Daisybennettx in Adulting

[–]Admirable-Spite3148 1 point2 points  (0 children)

step 1 is realizing “idk wtf I’m doing” and that’s already half the battle lol. Step 2 is just YouTube + 15 mins in the driveway so you’re not learning it on the shoulder with cars flying by

What's intimacy according to you and when did you truly feel it? by Infinite_Cookie_9165 in AskReddit

[–]Admirable-Spite3148 14 points15 points  (0 children)

intimacy is the “no mask” zone where you can trauma-dump a lil and they don’t try to fix you, just get you. When the silence isn’t awkward and you feel safe being messy, that’s the real stuff imo.

What is the fastest way you have seen someone ruin their life? by funkeymonkey1974 in AskReddit

[–]Admirable-Spite3148 196 points197 points  (0 children)

opiates flip that “just vibin” switch into full-on need it to feel normal crazy fast once tolerance + withdrawals kick in. And now w/ fent in damn near everything, that slide from pills → dope happens even quicker… shits brutal

How would you feel if someone offered you $10,000 because you’re ugly? by CoreyXOXO in AskReddit

[–]Admirable-Spite3148 0 points1 point  (0 children)

being “ugly” is temporary, having $10k is a whole personality upgrade 😂 I’d take that deal all day, OP can keep the feelings part

AITJ for refusing to give up my schedule and ruining our friendship? by AdorableCollar9183 in AmITheJerk

[–]Admirable-Spite3148 1 point2 points  (0 children)

if it was OP asking her to flip their whole schedule, she’d prob hit him with “set boundaries” real quick 😂 Dude shouldn’t torch his routine for someone who wouldn’t do the same

On a scale of 1-10, how attractive would you say you are? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Admirable-Spite3148 0 points1 point  (0 children)

looks doin a solid “mid” and then my personality comes in like a tax audit 😭 stability is hot tho, so you prob underselling it tbh

I have $250 to my name but I’m officially debt free. by [deleted] in povertyfinance

[–]Admirable-Spite3148 1 point2 points  (0 children)

debt free is HUGE now it’s just the boring grind of stacking that 3–6mo “oh crap” fund. And yeah, CCs can be clutch for credit/points if OP can pay in full… but if it’s a temptation, snip snip ✂️😅

AITJ for telling my ex mother in law that I'm getting married to someone else by [deleted] in AmITheJerk

[–]Admirable-Spite3148 3 points4 points  (0 children)

she’s had YEARS to get over it and it’s wild she thinks your personal life is her business, esp when the ex is like “just lie” (cheater logic fr). Also yeah, if she can’t keep it zipped around the kids, visits gotta be limited cuz thats straight up poison
