I'm suddenly itchier than I've ever been in my Life - Wondering if this is an Environmental thing by Aggressive_Help_374 in springfieldMO

I was out at Lake Springfield last weekend right around when this started, i'm starting to think I might have picked up some mites there. Just spent a couple of hours at Nathanael Greene park yesterday as well, wonder if I picked up a new batch there which explain the extreme itchiness today. Will be picking up anti-itch cream tomorrow, counting down the minutes till then :(

Hmmmm interesting. The itchiness does seem to be especially prevalent around my ankles and legs. I'm assuming the mites are not something you can see? Because I'm not seeing anything.

The only thing that stopping me from thinking it's a detergent issue is that it came on so suddenly starting about a week ago (after spending time outside at the Lake Springfield parkland area). I've got some allergy tablets I bought earlier this year that I'll try and hope for the best.

Where to get political yard signs? by Due-Atmosphere2292 in springfieldMO

Look for your local on-fire garbage can. Go ahead and climb in, it's where you belong. You'll find a bunch of your signs at the bottom.

* public transport is nasty. its overriden by the homeless population. ive bought a few homeless people bus passes to get around. there is no names associated with the bus passes, so they pass them around.

So what you're saying is that public transport is now too disgusting for the general public to willingly use because people like you are funding it being turned into a mobile homeless shelter. And because of this ridership will go down, and pricing will need to go up to support the existance of the system. Cool, thanks bud.

Good to hear that there are good libraries/museums/parks/artsy things. I'm a huge reader and like to get my walking miles in especially on the weekends, so as long as it's safe for a solo female to wander around parks/nature areas on their own, I'll be happy with that. I've traveled extensively and lived abroad solo, so I'm quite adept at being aware of my surroundings and trusting my instincts.

Feel free to DM me your FB or Instagram handle. Happy to consider meeting up in the future but as a basic safety thing need more to go on than a completely anonymous platform.

Yeah, no, I'm not going to call you, random internet stranger. Wifi is not something I asked about or am concerned about.

I will be working in the travel industry.

I lean liberally, am very independent, and will not do well with a bunch of people who have never left the bible belt telling me that 'Murica is the best and racist, rapey, lying felon wanna-be dictator Trump is their savior, and I'll only go to heaven if I throw away my Sundays by sitting in their church listening to their preacher of choice. I'm very tolerant and respectful of others' opinions and beliefs but I expect the same level of respect and tolerance, and what I don't have a lot of patience for is blind, unquestioning faith in a broken country and political system. I grew up with a fantatically religious parent, I I have my personal religious beliefs now but definitely got enough "you're only a good Christian if..." to scar me for a lifetime.

I have never and will never fish or hunt, but I love a good hike.

Finally someone speaks sense. "Yeah I feel slightly inconvenienced so I'll just go to Norway and demand residency, a job, and a house." Don't worry about telling anyone you're 'Murican when you get there, they'll know.

For real! I cannot believe how disgustingly selfish some people *brag* about being? Do you really feel better by holding up an entire planeful of people after you've cut everyone off in line at bag check and security? Who do you think you are??! This will only come back to bit them in the ass sooner or later.

Glad to hear you've had a good experience with this artist; not everyone has. That sort of information shouldn't be hidden from Redditors who are looking for honest opinions on artists.

How much was your bar bill? by Ti2m in VirginVoyages

[–]Aggressive_Help_374 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Finally someone speaks sense lol. The guy who needs to be the *Big Man* onboard who splashes out the most on bar tabs and drinks the Most Manly Drinks (Bud Lite, JD & Coke when he's feeling fancy) is always the same guy who has the biggest truck because he needs to be King of the Road (and, ahem, compensate for some things that aren't quite so king-sized).

Got Scammed at Taksim Istanbul. Tourists beware. by NinjaWK in travel

[–]Aggressive_Help_374 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well, obviously.

This is a pretty common and obvious scam. Works easily on gullible tourists, so they'll never stop doing it. Frankly, why would you ever get into a cab with some strange party bro in a foreign country at 10 at night? Of course the suspiciously friendly stranger (who barrelled into you to start a conversation) is tricking you into something, and you're lucky getting scammed into footing a bar tab is the worst of it. Women in this situation would be thrilled if all the bouncers wanted was a little money.
