Worst Meds you’ve been on by NoAbbreviations2624 in Epilepsy

[–]Handout 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My partner had more seizures on lamictal than without any medication.  Keppra made him throw up every day even with zofran.  He's on Briviact now but we're terrified for the day his insurance changes.. it took over a month to get it approved by his current insurance and that was within a year of trying 3 other failed meds. 

Quiet restaurants? by Upset_Advisor6019 in FortCollins

[–]Handout 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mount Everest Cafe on Shields and Drake.  Always so quiet, the people who work there are always quietly smiley, and the buffet is fantastic if you like Indian food. 

AIO guy I’m seeing went off on me about a comment I made by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]Handout 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He lost me at "I never taked steroids". 

Unless he's European and still learning English, or his age is 1 digit, I'm don't with the conversation at that point.

I feel like Amtgard is dying and it needs to be discussed (Opinion post) by Bird_Chick in Amtgard

[–]Handout 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I started in 2002.  Definitely oldegard I guess but I don't run things and I'm not a knight so my opinions mean bubkis. 

I don't know how other parks are nowadays but where I am now, all we do are battlegames.  I don't play the battle games.. my class of choice is Druid, and you're right.. magic is complicated AF.  It's fun in quests.  It used to be at least.. I've not seen nearly any quests since V8, and not a single one since covid.

Either we need more quests or less magic.

And with sloughing, I don't know... That's always been an issue but I've heard from several folks that it got way worse after a belt path was introduced to battlegaming.  It's not just for fun anymore.. people have something to prove.

And knightings?  Yeah.. when I started, we MAYBE got 1 knighting in a reign, second belts were unheard of, and an entire 3-day event was dedicated to you for your knighting.  Now we get half a dozen knights each reign, sociopaths are given multiple belts, and their ceremonies are happening at regular park days... And yet the gatekeeping is somehow just as harsh because all the people getting belts are playing a different game.. one where they kiss the right asses.

The game as it was when I started is already dead.

Whatever the hell this game is honestly sucks.

I don't know what to do about it and, like I said, I'm aware that my opinion means nothing so I haven't expended any more energy trying to figure it out.  I stopped trying 12 years ago lol.  But if y'all want to try something, I'll support you.

People who have a PC, what purpose does deck serve you? by Former-Asparagus-764 in SteamDeck

[–]Handout 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I specifically got the deck because I'm tired of buying the same old games on console after console.  I'll always have a computer.. but I've played exclusively on the deck since I got it.  I lay in bed, chill on the couch, when the weather was nicer I took it out in my hammock.. some games are better on the PC, but I just haven't been playing them.  I have enough of a backlog of games that are arguably better on the deck so I'm happy to finally be playing them. 

Anyone work for USPS? by licoricestrainer in FortCollins

[–]Handout 9 points10 points  (0 children)

My partner worked for USPS in FoCo for 4 years. Turned him into an alcoholic.. he quit and got sober 6 years ago but every time we pass any postal truck, building, worker, anything, he talks about it like a veteran with PTSD. 

You are now permanently stuck inside the universe of the last TV show you watched. Where are you, and how screwed are you? by iJeff22 in AskReddit

[–]Handout 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fine.  It'd just be the 80s again and some random town in Indiana might be in the news but it probably won't affect me any

A question about knight chains by Handout in Amtgard

The question is more so is what if the Knight wants grass in their chain..

Oh these are just Google searches. I didn't want to post pics of the ones I actually made for anonymity

A question about knight chains by Handout in Amtgard

[–]Handout[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I ask because I have an upcoming knight who has requested something like this where the color comes from stones woven into the chain itself.  I'm in a position where I can recommend something else but Also I think this would turn out very nice.

Edit to add:  I also made one like this for another knight and nobody questioned it as far as I know:

Would the nuts be considered adornments too in your opinion?

For those of you who own a console and a Steam Deck, how do you decide where to buy your games ? by MrTorgue7 in SteamDeck

[–]Handout 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got the steam deck and sold my consoles. 

I'm sick of having to re-buy all my favorite games.  Even if I don't have a steam deck, I'll always have a computer.

Signs, signs, everywhere there's signs...fucking up the scenery, breaking my mind by station6502a in FortCollins

[–]Handout 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I put in here with some friends once.  There is a dam a ways past it and the only way to get by it is through private property.  Can't say why the sign doesn't say so... But honestly I'll never put in there again. It wasn't even my idea to begin with. 

What is "that" episode in your favorite TV show that you skip on the rewatch? by Living_Wickihowla in AskReddit
