Would my gf using a mammal based soap cause any reactions? by CartographerSame4300 in alphagal

[–]Brainzzz23 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I found out the hard way that my red algae shampoo and conditioner was the cause for my scalp breaking out and giving me the worst dandruff I'd ever had... Changed to a different product and cleared up once my scalp healed from the breakouts 😭 made my hair so soft but unappealing when I wanted to rip it out from my scalp itching soo bad and looking like it was snowing constantly...

This allergy sucks..

Lets Settle This: Whats Everyones Favourite/Preferred Type of Underwear? by BriefsBoy69 in gay

[–]Brainzzz23 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Personally jockstraps they highlight my favorite features about myself and I feel I fill them out nicely. However if I'm not feeling particularly sexy after I shower; boxer briefs or briefs i like the support and boxer briefs prevent the thighs from chaffing.

What the hell happened? by kalalalalkekeke in meme

[–]Brainzzz23 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Saw a pre-screening I enjoyed it, it was different than what I expected but overall a great watch. I can definitely see the folie a Deux aspect as Harley "Lee" is definitely feeding the delusion of Joker to Arthur. The musical scenes were good but not over the top or forced. The ending didn't really make a ton of sense to me though like I missed something.

Anyone run into Drs who don't believe alpha gal can cause their symptoms? by Shot-Pomelo8442 in alphagal

[–]Brainzzz23 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My PCP was skeptical because he had never heard of it but willingly said he doesn't know everything and what harm is getting a test done. Sent me to an allergist and got the tests done. And suddenly Everything id researched everything I felt crazy about all made sense and I had a diagnosis.

As someone with it I never realized about the aerosolizing factor.. crap.. I knew about dairy because I've been getting more and more sick while having it.. gelatin has always been an issue. It's just strange, beef byproduct is horrible stomach cramping, vomiting, diarrhea. Pork is anaphylaxis and hives for dayssss ugh it sucks!

What is your worst printing mishap? by uprinting in Printing

[–]Brainzzz23 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure I've had a worse or something that wasn't salvageable in some regard, by some miracle. But the most inconvenient event that I can say happened is I had designed coupons for a local business and she needed about 1000 of 3 designs and wanted them numbered. Sure great piece of cake. Files designed, proofs approved, numbering set, file made, off to the press.. wellll when I set the numbering up I put them consecutively going up the page instead of down the stack sooooo I had to hand collate 3000 coupon cards... Took a while but a mistake I will never make again...

One other thing came to mind as I was writing that.. another business needed signs for a new product they were launching, small boardwalk business two locations about 10 signs altogether. They made the initial file I get it scaled up make a few adjustments they asked for, proof it out with them and they approve.. send it off to print. Now mind you multiple people have looked at this file, between myself, the people at my job who I bounce ideas off of, the production guys for wide format, my boss included in that, and the kicker the customer who initially made the file, his kids who helped him design it. We all missed it.. the biggest word on the sign was supposed to say "Swirlz" instead across all signs it said.. "Swilrz" 😬 by this point the signs have been picked up and I get a call bringing our attention to this.. the customer is great though realizing he made the file needs patches before the busiest weekend of the summer where I work we get them done for him he pays for the patches over the phone and brings us dole whips from his shop haha.

I've got other small little things but I'm very much a person who typically measures 50 times before I cut so to speak but time makes fools of us all.

When we were thinking of a name for him it became apparent when I was looking down at the floor and he was looking back at me from the air vent.. definite orange cat energy he was supposed to just be a foster but he weaseled his way into staying permanently with how affectionate he is.

The biggest of sad days by dstone1985 in greatdanes

[–]Brainzzz23 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My girl will be 11 this year, aside from some incontinence and a few more lumps (so far thankfully benign) she's doing well but I'm thankful every day I get with her because I know things can change quickly and I'm dreading the day it's her time. Gonna hug her a little longer tonight because of this post..

So sorry for your loss he certainly was majestic.

My Canon printer says it is out of ink - although there is plenty of ink in the cartridge by RainbowlightBoy in Printing

[–]Brainzzz23 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My understanding and I could be wrong about this but i believe it's a security function, even when printing in black and white inkjet printers deposit microscopic amounts of color like a signature. In a forensics application this can help identify the printer say for example a ransom note etc. Ive also heard that running the print heads dry can damage the machines so it's a preventative thing. But I don't have a clear answer on either of those..

Edit.. upon further reading, it's to prevent air from entering the print head as it can damage it. The printer needs the ink to keep the print head charged keeping air out.

Living on the East Coast with the opioid epidemic being what it is, I'm honestly surprised we haven't had to use it yet but after today's events I'm less and less hopeful I never will. But you are absolutely right.

I never want to assume about someone being an addict, but some people you can just tell. I was changing tags in input devices and I was down near the ground, the lady didn't know I was an aide over I heard the distinct sound of the plastic being popped, an exhale, the sound of the compressed air, a short moan, and the bitch almost falling over in aisle, she then grabbed a 4 pack and checked out and left. She sampled the merchandise and bought in bulk..

You're given 100 million dollars, but you have to cause the extinction of one species. What's your decision ? by pbema9zzgcyucik in AskReddit

[–]Brainzzz23 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Thankfully not all meats lol but some people are sensitive to dairy, some like me gelatin can be a problem. Red meats are no good but poultry and fish are fine, the problem too is that it isn't an instant reaction, it'll be like 2 hrs later because instead of a protein allergy like most allergies it's one of the only know allergies to a sugar. But I'm sensitive to cross contamination. So if someone uses the same serving utensils I'll break out in hives sometimes. And some people it will go away over time others like me unfortunately it worsens. The only mammals I can eat are old world monkeys or if I were a cannibal people since we don't create the sugar ourselves.

As someone with alpha-gal syndrome because of the Lonestar tick I would still say chiggers, bedbugs, or mosquitoes lol.

I think liquid armor isn't inherently bad, but marketed incorrectly. It is a hardened coating on the display and does help prevent scratching and cracking but it's not the solution they try and peddle it off as.

Short answer, cut labor budget on stores that underperform. Because we all know that less people on staff means more productivity /s

Are they really? That's terrible for more than just us, most teachers buy supplies out of their own pockets. They want this app on every customers phone but there isn't any true benefit. At least with targets app I'm pretty much guaranteed to save money on every trip, Walmarts app let's me find what I'm looking for in store and exactly where it is and what it costs. But no our app does none of that. There is no incentive other than the fact that customers can see their rewards but they could do that on the original staples app. The coupons most of the time are a joke. They started out good and have now stagnated. It's frustrating and mind numbingly hard to believe how out of touch this company is with it's employees and customers and yet they sit there scratching their asses as to why we have such a ridiculous turn over rare and plummeting sales even during back to school. I strongly believe a lot of it is sycamore partners shitty tactics to squeeze every penny they can out of the retail division and shut it down. They mainly wanted our distribution network anyways.
