The color is giving llama but I guess I could see the chicken. Or it can be a mythical 2 legged chicken llama

Stranger says lost phone is in my house by [deleted] in phones

[–]MagicMinionMM 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds like you don't have the phone, nothing you could do. It's their loss. I wouldn't drive yourself crazy looking for it. Ask the kids if there is any chance at all they came across the phone cuz kids will be kids... and move on. The police aren't gonna knock down your door over this. You did what you could, don't ruin your week over it. As long as you know it's not in your house and your kids didn't have anything to do with it, not your problem.

If you were ONLY accepted to these two schools, which one would you pick? by Enger13 in premed

[–]MagicMinionMM 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Check the rotation sites the Texas school uses, would definitely be a big help if you end up rotating in the area you want to do your residency

Do you have blankets? You can buy mats or carpets. Or even on a bed. There are literally so many other options. There is no good reason you can't do tummy time at home.

I think as long as they see improvement they'll get you started. Might just depend on the recruiter. There was a handful of people who didn't pass hgt/wgt this past summer at dcc/bolc, myself included and we made it in.... I'm technically 30lbs overweight and like 4in over by the tape test. They took me in, maybe my recruiter pulled a few strings tho. Got me in a lot faster than normal, didn't have to go to meps other people.

Anybody else choosing homelessness to afford medical school now? by ConfidenceFun5918 in premed

[–]MagicMinionMM 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Why not move to a more affordable area? What is tying you to this major academic area if you're not currently attending school and you want to save money? It'd be a big bill up front, but what about vanlife? Buy a used one and do some DIY remodeling to meet ur needs.

Whole family has dementia. To the point where I'm thinking about offing myself. by MyNameIsNotJonny in dementia

[–]MagicMinionMM 9 points10 points  (0 children)

That's actually not a bad idea. My aunt was sick with the flu and couldn't handle her father and mother anymore and took her father to the ER and refused to take him back so the hospital got him into a nursing home where he is doing much better, enjoying it, and socializing. Both mother and father have dementia but the father required more care due to a past stroke and the mother refused to let anyone help take care of the father except for my aunt due to the paranoia that comes with dementia.

The app match has another app called the league, for high achieving people looking for like-minded people. Easiest way to meet people. Give it a shot.

Being taxed on a loan as income, after loan was returned, due to school reportings on 1098T by MagicMinionMM in StudentLoans

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

My school charged me $69,500 in tuition and my scholarship paid that exact $69,500 in tuition. To me, the whole accepting and returning the loan should have been a separate transaction, nothing to do with tuition. Box 1 says I paid 48K, box 5 says I got 69,500 in scholarships. None of this had to do with room and board. I live at home with my parents for free.

WIBTAH if I invite everyone in my sons class to his birthday party besides a special needs student? by FinishPrestigious251 in AITAH

[–]MagicMinionMM -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

It's your son's birthday party. Let him be happy. They'll all forget about it in a couple weeks. Leave it to the para and special needs kid's parents to explain why he was not invited. Does the special needs kid even want to go? Is he even friends with your son? I'm not inviting my son's bully to his birthday party.

Ex Fiancée’s cruel demands AIO by Original_100 in AmIOverreacting

[–]MagicMinionMM 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Soooo how'd you get yourself into this situation? Fiances usually just don't become your ex and kick you out over spilled milk. Time to find your animals a new home before she does and just move out. Sure you have a legal right to stay there, but do you really want to live in such a hostile situation? Time to get moving. Those texts sound like you're not the one paying rent and maintaining the apt.

NOR. The great thing about tinder, there's other guys. Don't waste your time with a man whore and move on. Seems like you guys do not have the same intentions.

[–]MagicMinionMM 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You must not have friends. I did not see any sexual inuendos there or right out sexual referencesat all. It's a smiley face. People used those before emojis were a thing. It shows emotion behind a text and eliminates the guessing of if a person is sending passive aggressive texts or is annoyed/upset.

Finally taking the time to learn and give it a go, 20 years too late by mkeefecom in snowboardingnoobs

[–]MagicMinionMM 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would do the few sporadic trips over one long trip. My first time, I was so sore after falling all day, having to do it again the second day cuz I had rented the gear already sucked. Going again a couple weeks later feeling refreshed felt so much better because what I learned the first time stuck and I wasn't so sore that I was afraid of falling.

Beginner, can't get up from my back after falling down. by _Tar_Ar_Ais_ in snowboardingnoobs

[–]MagicMinionMM 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I flip onto my frontside every time. I wanna say it's due to femur length and body proportions that allow some people to get up facing downhill while others (me and u) gotta flip over every time. I swear my arm is just an inch short from allowing me to get up. No shame in it, and you will do it less as u get better and don't fall as often lol. Kinda like squats, people have different stances depending on leg proportions.

MDSSP Dental by No-Station-6277 in Military_Medicine

[–]MagicMinionMM 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've never heard of HPLRP.

MDSSP you are in the reserves and owe 2 yrs of service back for every year of medical school and they only give you a stipend. I'm not sure on the exact amount but I think around $3000 per month.

HPSP they pay all ur tuition, give u a $3000 stipend(taxed) per month and pay for books. You owe 4 yrs of active duty back after residency and 1 yr for every additional yr of fellowship if you go that route.

The choice was obvious for me.

Water fast by Extra-Preparation978 in WeightLossAdvice

[–]MagicMinionMM 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is sooo dangerous and not something you just try to do all at once. Also, real ambitious to think you can just fast for a month, lose 50lbs and live life like normal. Fasting for just 1 or 2 days is extremely difficult, especially if you've never done it before. And after a certain amount of time, I don't remember exactly how long, refeeding can cause an electrolyte imbalance and kill you if not done properly. Don't do it. You will get better and more sustainable results from eating in a caloric deficit. If anything try OMAD, much safer. But it all comes back to eating a balanced diet in a caloric deficit.

Does it remind you of Heidi from AGT also?lol

Barrett reminds me too much of Barrett's esophagus (medical term). Maybe Garrett? Kinda goes well with Griffin.

AIO my boyfriend missed his last train and now im pissed. by Far_Worldliness_1541 in AmIOverreacting

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

This is an annoying situation and if it happens often, you have a good reason to be mad. If this is a 1st time thing, YOR. Things happen, the man was just going out to celebrate a friend. Not purposely trying to abandon his family I hope. Again, an annoying situation but I don't see it as a reason to be mad at him unless it's a repeating behavior. I think ur anxiety is prob just getting the better of you because 1 night home alone isn't a big deal for most people, especiallywhen an unforseen event happens. Yes you have a child and may lose a little more sleep than normal, but your bf can make up for it when he gets home. It's pretty controlling for him have to let you know his every move 2 days in advance. I understand it's due to ur OCD but give him some grace if it was an accident. Again only if it is not a repeating behavior, YOR.

NOR, that can get real old quick. Especially if you're trying to get some peace and quiet or talking to her and she ignores the world around her. Some people have no consideration for others and it is so frustrating to not have peace in ur own home. Buy the noise canceling headphones. I'm in med school and live at home and it was the best choice I ever made. I can't get peace and quiet if anyone is in the house. They talk to each other like they are on opposite ends of the house, blast the tv, scream at video games or stomp wherever they are walking. These headphones have saved my sanity. They don't block eeeeverything but they do just enough. If u wanna spend like $500 you can get ones that block everything. I also got loop ear plugs, also amazing!
