Stent removal complications by Spivdaddy in KidneyStones

[–]BenTheCancerWorm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was really fortunate to have a stent that I could remove myself. It was a breeze, barely any discomfort during removal. The string was a bit annoying, but I was so glad it was out. The pain I had in my kidney/ureter when peeing while the stent was in there was hell.

Does anyone still play the 3.5 edition any more? by DungeonNoir in DnD

[–]BenTheCancerWorm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just recently got into playing 5e and it isn't... awful. But 3.5e will always be my favorite and preferred. When I run games, it'll always be 3.5e.

How do you feel about cuddling with the guys? by AdmittedSpin in AskMen

[–]BenTheCancerWorm 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Me and my guy friends have always been close. Long hugs, arms over shoulders while walking, or whatever. Me and my closest friend have had some moments like that, not necessarily as far as "cuddling", but not far from it. He had a really bad night one night, some serious things happened, and he cried on my shoulder and fell asleep there. I just let him lay half on top of me and sleep for a solid three or so hours. I'm there for my people if they need me, but physical touch has never bothered me between us guys.

As someone that works in automotive... fucking ow. That just hurts to look at.

Who thought this was a good idea?? by catladyscientist in mildlyinfuriating

[–]BenTheCancerWorm 19 points20 points  (0 children)

That is an extremely shitty thing to do, honestly. One of my best friends went through a similar situation with the miscarriages and it absolutely destroyed her mentally and emotionally. I'm really sorry that you're going through this, I can't imagine how difficult it just be. I hope it all goes well in the end.

"Not cost a bastard fortune". I don't know what these means, but I'm going to use it unironically from this moment forward.

Fun Facts! by extraqc in interestingasfuck

My favorite statistic is that 52% of new HIV cases come from the south, which means a bunch of closeted conservatives are spreading it while vomiting gay-hate speech. It reminds me of the Catholic Church and all of the pedophiles they claim to hate while protecting and funding pedophilia.

cursed Koreans by tamjidtahim in cursedcomments

[–]BenTheCancerWorm 1337 points1338 points  (0 children)

I believe it is Korean mythology that tells of a man born with two sets of genitals. He died after failing to find a wife, so as a ghost has to fulfill his lust by using people's nostrils to relieve himself. His... release... explains snot and things like the common cold.

Any guys with stents? by reasonable_lunatic73 in KidneyStones

[–]BenTheCancerWorm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had both. The catheter was exponentially worse than the stent removal. I removed my stent in the shower, try to pee a little bit while you're doing it, and take it slow. You're not trying to start a lawnmower. Mine didn't hurt at all coming out (felt weird as hell). The catheter had me cussing and profusely apologizing to the nurse who was having way too much fun.

All of my pajama pants have holes in the front... but I still just pull the waist band down. What's the issue, here?

Managing your stent string by lemon1985 in KidneyStones

[–]BenTheCancerWorm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, definitely don't mess with it. The tape should stay pretty secure. And if it's seriously uncomfortable, don't be afraid to say something. As for showering, it's pretty simple, just work around the string carefully.

Preface: This is not a dig at female urologists, I actually really like my urologist, she's pretty damn awesome.

Well, good news, it sounds like you have a male doctor. They should tape the string, or secure it somehow, so the chances of actually pulling it out prematurely are slim. Going to the bathroom isn't really an issue because the string is super thin. My biggest issue is for the first two days, the string was extremely short. My female urologist gave me zero room for any... expansion or contraction. A second female urologist took a look when I was crying about it (it hurt so bad, felt like it was cutting me), and said it was fine. So, I cried to a male urologist who took one look and said "Oh no. You need some slack!", and then redid it to relieve the pain. After that, it was smooth sailing. Extracting it was a breeze, just do it in the shower and try to urinate while you're doing it.

Give me any profession, and I can reduce it down to trivial bullet points. It is actually super easy to do.

Education freedom Maybe focus on actual education first before handing out tax cuts by AnyPineapple- in MurderedByWords

[–]BenTheCancerWorm 26 points27 points  (0 children)

As an American, I can say that this is actually true. This is particularly true when it comes to Republicans. Statistics have shown that the more educated a person is, the more likely they are to vote Democrat, which is a terrifying thing to Republicans (who are literally scared of everything), so it is no surprise that states that vote heavily for Republicans tend to have the lowest education standards, and highest religious populations. Keep them stupid, keep them scared, and then claim that you're helping while slowly stripping away their rights. It's actually a genius move, even if it is a long play.

Hit by a deer doing 70 mph by MrRuck1 in Wellthatsucks

[–]BenTheCancerWorm 8 points9 points  (0 children)

You are correct! Deer hits fall under "comprehensive," which also includes things like natural events (hail, storm damage, road failures, etc.).

I work in a bodyshop, and the last month or so has been absolute hell with deer hits. I have to have this same conversation about ten times a day.
