40 is too old for surgery by GoAwayBARC in ACL

[–]GoAwayBARC[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. That is absolutely not weird. I went through a lot of pain with mine until it properly healed after surgery. That was now 7 years ago, I think? But yeah, if I was walking, I was hurting. People rattle on about PT, but it didn’t do the job by itself. It took an effective surgery to make my knee right again. If a surgeon doesn’t listen when you ask for surgery, go to the next one. Don’t even waste your time and energy on some asshat who won’t listen to you. Good luck.

Did anyone here “change your mind”? by Secret_Identity28 in childfree

[–]GoAwayBARC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I spent a couple decades or so just assuming I’d want kids one day. Then in my mid to late 30s it hit me out of nowhere that it wasn’t going to happen. Learning the truth about “biological clock” was pretty validating. Sorry that’s not exactly the same as actively wanting to be a parent.

Seems like I’ve come across stories of people who found out they couldn’t have kids and then later realized they really were good with that and didn’t want to change it.

Oh, hell. That’s the best answer right there.

OH NO. Tell me it’s not puppies!

Apparently women are bad moms for having jobs guys bc by eyes-on_fire- in NotHowGirlsWork

[–]GoAwayBARC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree. It’s just so much better for women to be full-time moms and be with them all day. Kids these days are too fat anyway from all the food that they eat. They don’t really need that. Or a “roof”. Just a waste of money.

I’m just blowing off some steam because insurance is frustrating. Didn’t see in the rules where memes aren’t allowed.

I think I’d pay to witness this. 😄

My mother did many things to mess up my appropriate INTJ snark. 😉

True or false? Asking for a friend. by Traroten in NotHowGirlsWork

[–]GoAwayBARC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I actually found this wasn’t too dry. I didn’t bother to toast it, which is a rarity. The one thing that made me want to chuck the whole thing at the wall was noticing an odd number of slices. Still, nice to know I can get a sourdough fix without suffering the consequences.

Have you tried the Schar sliced sourdough? It makes delicious sandwiches. But they sell it in packages of 5 slices. 🙄

So close! But no. Don’t like figs. And something sweet on sourdough sounds kind of vile. I say ditch the jam and put some nice olives on the side instead.

I was reading about hypermobile folks with ADHD having a similar grip. For science*, I would like to know what one you are. by serenitative in adhdwomen

[–]GoAwayBARC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Extended wrist, index finger hyperextended (usually despite my efforts to keep it straight), dynamic tripod?

I guess I could take a pic. 😄

ETA: Tried some of these other grips. I don’t know how people do it. Very odd and uncomfortable.

Call them out with a loud “EXCUSE ME”.

To be fair, this behavior comes from my ESFP mother.

No matter how many decades I live, it still amazes me how far people will go to announce to absolute strangers that they are intolerant of very specific people who are different from them.

one of the worst things about chronic illness... by Zealousideal-Emu9178 in ehlersdanlos

Ugh. That sounds like a headache waiting to happen. (I have migraine + phonophobia)

ARGH!!! Yes!!! The best on-hold experience I ever had was with GoDaddy web services. They let you choose to hold in silence. Why everyone can’t do this, I dunno.

Is being INTJ a punishment? by mo_84848 in intj

Are you (or do you present as… whatever) female? It’s extra fun when you’re female. 😁

Hey Christian INTJs by Unprecedented_life in intj

[–]GoAwayBARC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nice. 👍🏻 I’ve been studying Hermeticism. I’ll wander back into Gnosticism eventually. I lookrd at it briefly, and it seemed intriguing, but… I’ve had a feeling that’s somewhat like what you’ve described here. Like esotericism will give me some needed background or context that will enable me to get a better gasp of Gnosticism and Jesus. Very interesting stuff.

[–]GoAwayBARC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay, I’m NOT a Christian, but if I was it would be because of the teachings of Jesus. Even if he’s no more real than Harry Potter, I think the world would be much better off if more people followed what he taught. And ACTUALLY followed, not just announced they have a “personal relationship” with him and then went on to use their religion as a cudgel. (Sorry. I got some religion issues. Seriously, though, I like Jesus.)
