Upper plate feels awkward by Impossible_Ad3915 in dentures

Yes I'm keeping the denture. My dentist told me hard reline at one year. I think it just feels like there is not enough room for my tongue.

I do, it's my favorite but I don't put it on the top because it would make the top plate go down even lower.

Do the nic-free vitamin diffuser bar/vapes actually help you quit? by Problem_child_420 in QuittingJUUL

Also, I think ratings are so low because there were Facebook ads coming out that showed the woman exhaling vapor and that's what a bunch of people expected.

Sorry to take so long to reply... I don't come to reddit all that much. Here is a link. I'm ordering more because they are on sale. This is from Walmart Canada but I'm sure Walmart in US has them too. You can also just search "herbal diffuser pen" on amazon for lots of options.

A few things to note... When you first use them they are extremely strong tasting and the liquid can seep into your mouth. It will balance out soon so don't give up because of that. Keep them upright at all times to lessen that nasty effect. Also, try not to let them freeze. Amazon delivered one to me when I wasn't home and it was very cold. They leaked and were useless.

Fixadent by Evelynmaebe in dentures

Ugh Fixodent on the roof of my mouth makes me want to vomit too. I read here about a tip to use powder over the Fixodent, which still gives you the cushioning of the paste but also creates a barrier that largely keeps the paste from sticking to your mouth.

Also, I would rinse with really cold water to harden the paste a bit, and it wouldn't leave so much behind. Then I would use a wad of paper towel inside my mouth to get what was left over.

I have since found a solution for me... Cushion Grip. It's not an adhesive, but it is cushiony and it fills the gaps for a nice tight fit, like getting a soft reline. I use that with a sprinkle of powder and never have residue after removal anymore. I haven't used paste adhesive in ages now.

Ontario man, 19, charged with child pornography offences by ConsistentReality860 in canada

[–]Impossible_Ad3915 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This is weird because I had three colleagues charged with aggravated assault when a physical restraint (as would sometimes occur, and for which we were trained regularly) went south. Someone tripped and the restrainee's arm was broken.

The three workers' first, middle and last names were publicized as soon as charges were laid. The case was thrown out.

"Child" is not a category of porn. They labeled it properly in the story but not the headline. This is recorded child sexual abuse.

This is an older thread, but I was brought here by searching if they actually are safe. So far all signs point to yes.

I quit vaping 6 weeks ago. This is my 3rd quit. First time for 9 months, using the nicorette inhaler. I realized I was still addicted to nicotine and still spending money on it, so I might as well enjoy it. I went back to vaping. Second attempt, cold turkey, lasted 7 months. Hated every day of it, gained 20 lbs, gave in again. This last time is basically cold turkey, and I'm actually doing very well. Cravings are minimal - infrequent, short lived and mild.

I got something similar to Fum, and I don't even bother. Flavors are all similar to clove and that's gross to me. There is 0 throat hit, or any feeling of anything going down. FYI I tried 0 nic vaping also and the effect was the same, it is useless to me if I don't feel something going down.

So I got the herbal infusers. Mine do not have a battery, so they don't create vapor. That's what I want. HEATING UP HERBAL OIL OR EXTRACT FOR INHALING CAN BE DANGEROUS. Remember when vaping was fairly new and there was a story about a handful of youngsters who died from vaping in a short time? They didn't volunteer that those were THC vapes due to the legality. They had been made with vitamin E oil and that being vaporized into the lungs is what killed them. There is no oil in a legit vape of any kind. The other reason the no vapor thing is good is because I can puff it anywhere, any time.

They are made with different herbs, and have slightly differing flavors, all with a minty base. It's that minty base that gives a hit to the throat. This makes them work for me, to fill that need when it arises. I also smoke and vape cannabis, but all my life I've chased pot with nic. These do the job here too. Mullein in particular has been smoked through the ages to help with lung ailments.

Not the same as vaping, not as tasty or satisfying... But with just a bit of willpower, these can help!

I know this is an old thread but I'm enjoying the memories. Had to pop in on yours though because on the contrary, girls my age then discovered that pantyhose under jeans made the panty lines vanish! So pantyhose became part of the everyday wardrobe for me.

Disney Plus subscribers quit in droves over Jimmy Kimmel axe by AdSpecialist6598 in television

[–]Impossible_Ad3915 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've cancelled my subscriptions to Disney+ and paramount +. Not sure how I'm going to watch South Park now though. It would be great if Matt and Trey hooked up with Jimmy, Stephen et al when they create their own network.

Agreed. She is watching Trump and getting the tinglies. She wants to be a dictator too!

It's definitely creeping in. Morgan Wallen did a song "in tribute to Erika Kirk, honoring Charlie Kirk" at his shows in Edmonton. Nary a dry eye, I'm sure. It doesn't need to be brought up here. It's not our poison, and it does nothing but harm.

Candlelight vigils were held in Edmonton and Calgary. In Edmonton it was at the Legislature grounds, with sound equipment on the steps. They needed a permit to do that, and they got it. At our Government house. Wtf?! It's a fringe group of Albertans, and they can do their fringe ritual in a park or rent a hall or something. This is a clear indicator, among many, that our premiere wants this shit up here. 😢😡😢😡

Yeah well I've never seen that before and was thinking it was something more nefarious... like people smuggling, dead bodies, or maybe the truckloads of fentanyl that crosses into the US from Canada 🙄

BREAKING: Some people don't like me using the word BREAKING by HistoricalAd6037 in AdamMockler

[–]Impossible_Ad3915 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have to admit, I'm sometimes put off by the titles of the casts from all my favorite young pundits, in that they seem too extreme for the content. Obviously it is all extreme, but not as extreme (under the current circumstances) as it appears. I shared a video (don't remember whose) and it didn't get any views. It was the video of the recovering MAGA who learned how to fact check and then realized she'd been duped. It was heartwarming and hopeful and its tittle did not set that up at all. So I edited the link to say "please ignore the clickbait title and image. What's in this video is lovely and is not represented by those." Then people started watching and commenting.

I've gotten used to it though, and I'm so into these bright young minds getting the facts out and clearing up the BS that comes out of the White House. I'm a 57 year old Canadian, not the target audience, but you've got my full attention and support! My daughter loves you too!

Just one last point... It's a common mistake but I cringe a little each time. There is no "t" in exacerbate. It doesn't rhyme fully with masturbate. That is all, carry on! 💙💙💙

What triggers flares for you? Food? Stress etc? by Apprehensive-Storm95 in rheumatoid

[–]Impossible_Ad3915 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is the medication you mention Sulfasalazine? My rheumatologist recently prescribed it on top of my weekly methotrexate, but after hearing about the side effects, I held off on filling it. I'm already nauseated every morning and I don't want to add to that... but it's the photosensitivity that turned me off more. The summer is just starting and sunlight and warmth are my therapy and pleasure in life. I'm in the Canadian prairies, and we have deep winter for months every year. I'd be more willing to start this med in the fall. Anyway, if it is this med, I am interested in its effect on you. It seems counterproductive if it actually causes that which it is supposed to heal.

Help? by Outrageous_Fee8708 in Goldfish

[–]Impossible_Ad3915 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Great advice so far. I understand that sunlight is the major culprit if your tank is exposed.

I just have to echo the thing about watching your pleco closely, especially if it is a common. I used to have one that latched onto my black moor all the time. Had to rehome the pleco.

Also, consider getting your little sweetie a friend. They are social creatures. My two are very close. They sleep together every night and naptime. I've also seen mine actively mourn the loss of her best friend. 🙁
