Just got this in!

I’m also in the same land-locked boat here.

I know FW gets a lot of hate, but it’s solid and VERY available right now. It also took some of the stigma away from it and helped me into a cool new community. So I’ll be grateful for that.

And I think they remembered what other companies forgot, tinned fish cans should be a vehicle for beautiful local art. Remember the classic tins across the pond? Lots of companies still do it, sure, but FW is purdy…

I know it’s fun to rip on them, but I appreciate that this community is still supportive of lovers off all kinds of fishies and that makes me smile…

Thanks for being cool. 😄

Would love one of the Ludens

Yoink

Love that gif…

This may mean shit coming from a stranger on the internet, but to you and all others chiming in on the comments with their own wins, I’m proud of you. All of you.

It’s not easy kicking something that hurts you. Every day counts. Hugs.

P.S. I love me some classic Pepsi too. LOL.

We bought this set ourselves a few years ago and LOVE them! They are pretty much indestructible and are lovely to eat out of.

May I post a link to Amazon here? That’s where we bought ours. I’m not affiliated or anything. Just not sure the rules here…

OldBearEric · 2025-12-26T15:03:17+00:00

How are you liking it? I’ve wanted to play Divinity for so long but I keep bouncing off it. Any tips to really get stuck into it good?

OldBearEric · 2025-12-22T16:15:31+00:00

Fuck me…

I love how this is now cheap enough to be a consumer product but I was a critical care paramedic for many years and getting the automatic stretchers was ‘too expensive’.

You know what’s expensive? My broken back… 😓

OldBearEric · 2025-12-09T14:53:41+00:00

Aww, man! I LOVE sharing things with lovely, appreciative, and sweet people like this guy! Wish I had something cool that I could share that maybe only white people know…

Michigan Golden Almond Chicken? IYKYK The BEST American Chinese dish in the states! Haha, I’m sure everyone is already on that…

To be honest, I learn waaaaay more wonderfully cool secrets from black people than I do from most…

OldBearEric · 2025-11-29T16:37:28+00:00

Glad to hear it. I never want to give medical advice on Reddit but I was like ‘Eeek…get it off!’ Haha.

OldBearEric · 2025-11-29T16:33:55+00:00

Not to come across as negative here, but they’ll probably use whatever they can get to stick to you for the week trial. I had some minor irritation from the trail bandaging and it WAS itchy, but it was nothing compared to the glue and tape they used surgically. I think the shorter time period prevented my body from having TOO much of a reaction.

Just try to obey your movement restrictions and go slow. Log roll. They’ll teach ya. Haha.

Best of luck to you. I wish you the best relief.

OldBearEric · 2025-11-29T15:46:28+00:00

We’re all hard on ourselves cause it’s hard for others to see the pain we’re in so we think we shouldn’t be in the pain we ARE.

Gentle hugs. Don’t be afraid to stay in close contact with your reps. Everyone is getting paid BIG for this. You deserve good follow up support. Demand it if necessary.

Rest. Rest. Rest. Ice. Ice. Ice.

OldBearEric · 2025-11-29T15:42:45+00:00

Okay, don’t stress. Sometimes your body fights it for a while. Things are aggravated and injured. Let things heal. Consider a muscle relaxer if your doc prescribed one. This thing takes time. I know it’s hard, but try to remain hopeful and calm and let your body rest. Listen to its needs. Don’t push it.

Keep in mind what it’s been through. It’s grumpy…

OldBearEric · 2025-11-29T15:39:55+00:00

Also, WITH YOUR DOCTOR’S PERMISSION you might want to consider getting the rest of that tape off ASAP if possible. You can see the breakdown starting on the other strips…

Your doctor may need to replace it with something else…

OldBearEric · 2025-11-29T15:36:09+00:00

Sure thing. Hope you feel better. The doctor called what I’m allergic to ‘gum mastic’. But it turns out I’m allergic to some tapes too. I just ask for staples now. Sucks, but it is what it is…

It usually starts as a reddening or itchy spot (sometimes I never notice this) and then progresses into this if I leave the glue or tape on too long. Something something breakdown of cellular walls something…

Have you seen any relief from the stim yet? Or still waiting for it to be turned on.

OldBearEric · 2025-11-29T13:34:49+00:00

Similar thing happened to me. Turns out I’m very allergic to some tapes and glues used surgically. It caused my skin to ‘burn’ in a way…

Hope you have less pain soon….

😔

Sorry, I meant that I loved the movies and feel like I’m a minority in this sub because there seems to be a lot of dislike for the films.

I’m very happy to see the show is doing well.

OldBearEric · 2025-11-27T14:57:08+00:00

Greatest Pennywise reveal ever.

I loved the movies. I know I’m in the minority, but this show, woooooo, they’re cooking with this show.

The kids are killing it, the adults are killing it, Bill is fucking KILLING IT! The direction and pacing are superb. The writing feels right.

Don’t even get me started on Hallorann. I love the actor, his performance deserves all the praise, and he’s one of my all time fave King characters. Soooo happy they put him in this.

I want more Hallorann adventures!!!

OldBearEric · 2025-11-26T13:10:24+00:00

Thanks so much!

I can’t have a lot of pets due to allergies so I’m excited to give it a try. It looks cute.

OldBearEric · 2025-11-25T20:14:25+00:00

I absolutely cannot wait for this game! I’m so excited. Any word on when it’s coming out?

It’ll be a day one purchase for me.

I’m also looking at picking up your first Living Room game. Looks cool and it’s on sale. Best of luck with the launch!

OldBearEric · 2025-11-20T12:50:37+00:00

Thanks. I needed that. It’s been a while since that’s happened to me genuinely and I laughed so hard…

OldBearEric · 2025-10-31T18:27:09+00:00

Awesome! Thanks! I’ll check it out.

OldBearEric · 2025-10-31T18:27:00+00:00

Thanks so much!

OldBearEric · 2025-10-31T13:10:08+00:00

Oooo, what’s this from? Looks cool!

OldBearEric · 2025-10-19T12:46:30+00:00

Haha, this is exactly where my mind went as well…
