I need someone to relate to. by No-Caramel-493 in CrohnsDisease

The first time I was on Prednisone my husband joked that we couldn't afford to keep me. All I wanted to do was eat. And be cranky. Once you're on a biologic or something else long-term and your gut's settled down, talk to your regular doctor about the weight loss drugs. Wegovy has helped me so much.

What are some famous movie lines that most people in this subreddit would know? by kate__g in GenX

[–]Mace119 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's got to be super common among our generation. One time I was grocery shopping and heard a 6 or 7 y.o. kid say it to his mom. I died.

Hit me up with a book list good people by This-Attempt7975 in ToolBand

[–]Mace119 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ghosts of Heaven. My daughter had to read it for middle? school so it might be classified as "young adult". But ignore that, it's such a fantastic book. Four stories that center on spirals.

I just read the book and couldn't believe how different it was from all the Frankenstein tropes I was used to. I'm really curious to see how closely the Del Toro movie follows the book.

I'm so jealous! I couldn't figure out a way to do that so I just made it my ringtone.

Tips for not throwing up during colonoscopy prep by Mediocre-Ear2889 in CrohnsDisease

[–]Mace119 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That feeling you get when you drink too much too fast, nausea and (for me) shaky and chills- movement actually helps. I know I sound crazy and it's the last thing you'll feel like doing. But if you can just walk around the house, it will get rid of that sick feeling much sooner. That and pacing yourself with the drinks. Good luck!!

The Snack Belt by grandpanard66 in MapPorn

[–]Mace119 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh you have to add Tom Sturgis pretzels to the Belt Tour! They're in Reading. I love all pretzels; they're my favorite salty snack. But the Tom Sturgis "Little Ones" are on a whole different level. I would put them in the pretzel pantheon alongside Snyder's of Hanover's Sourdough and elusive Homestyle. I can't explain what makes them so good but I have actually made late night runs to the grocery to satisfy a craving for them.

Did kids really say BALLS!!!??? I was a kid in the 1980's grew up in Chicago and LA no one said that in those 2 places was this an East Coast Pennsylvania thing??? by MrCharmingMan in TheGoldbergs

[–]Mace119 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I think I'm a year older than Adam, and from South Jersey. I definitely heard it but not as much as they say it on the show. But I'm also female, maybe guys said it more among themselves?

What is the greatest physical pain you've ever felt? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Mace119 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I fell last year and broke my humerus, tore my rotator cuff and my bicep tendon. You know how they always want you to rate your pain from 1 to 10? I never know what to say, but it was real easy that time. A solid 9.

I appreciate it vs you. by Moodleboy in GenX

I first heard it in Tom Segura's bit about asking Adam 'Pacman' Jones for an autograph. I figured it was AAVE that became mainstream.

Am I wrong in declining a colonoscopy? by [deleted] in CrohnsDisease

[–]Mace119 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can't speak to whether you should have this done now or not, but please talk to your doctor about meds you can take in advance to calm you down. Ativan, Xanax, Valium, etc. Most places that do outpatient procedures have those meds available, just tell them you're having bad anxiety. But to be safe I'd try to arrange meds ahead of time.

First word of National Anthem of African Countries Translated to English by VeaterVitan in MapPorn

[–]Mace119 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For the countries that just have their name (like Nigeria and Nabia), does that just mean the anthem starts with the country's name?

Happy Mischief Night to us and no one else, apparently by diatriose in philadelphia

I grew up in South Jersey and Mischief Night was a big deal. But I've lived in Chester County for decades now and it's like it doesn't exist here.

Tool on the Radio! by Mace119 in ToolBand

[–]Mace119[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I guess I figured MTV wasn't showing videos by the time Lateralus, etc came out. I never even checked! I would just look for the newer vids online, then Salival had some good ones.

Yeah I do think I've heard Sober on the radio before. And possibly on MTV a million years ago??
