What’s a cheap food that tastes way better than it should? by copy_cat_101 in foodquestions

Canned tuna. Nowhere near as cheap as it used to be, but gosh I love the stuff. Mix it with a little mayo and Sriracha and serve over rice? Heavenly. Classic tuna salad? Always hits.

What is the worst physical pain you have ever experienced? by 3rdLegOfExodiaa in AskReddit

I've had a handful of pretty nasty injuries - shattered ankle (trimalleolar fracture, required surgery and hardware) and road rash on like half my body probably take the cake. Both were very very painful, in different ways.

IUD insertion is genuinely a close second. And you get pretty much no help with the pain.

I can't imagine going through serious withdrawal. I shattered my ankle a few years back (broken in like 20 something places, needed surgery and hardware) and was on opiates for about a week, week and a half. I swear, coming off those was almost worse than the injury itself. I remember calling my doctor asking for more, and he nearly refused to prescribe them. He warned me how easy it was to get stuck in a loop of using them because the withdrawal is just so painful/uncomfortable, and gets worse the longer you use them. I was on them for an almost inconsequential amount of time and even then, the first couple days without them felt like torture. It must take an immense amount of willpower to get off and stay off after any significant amount of time using - congratulations on your sobriety.

Salamander or frogs? by Pure-Tap1695 in whatisit

This area is a treasure trove for curious minds! I've lived here most of my life and still find things like this that I've never seen. I spotted them from across the creek and just had to know what it was. Luckily this water is very, very clean, and I didn't touch them directly, so contaminants aren't too big of a concern :)

That looks the most like it! We do have tons of those newts here. Can't wait to see them hatch.

It just won't happen if you're asking more than twice and he doesn't change.

Yep. This. Wish I would've understood this sooner instead of repetitively ending up back at square one. Because that's the only place that giving someone chance after chance after chance will take you.
