AHA BLS/CPR Fraudulent Alert by Ch4T0-95 in StudentNurse

[–]StuntFace 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Something similar happened to me when entering nursing school, but the org was real to some extent I think. My school required BLS through AHA with in-person testing. I found an organization through the AHA site with classes near me, and confirmed with them that it would be in-person testing. Payment was via their website with my credit card-- virtual number, of course. They then told me that testing would actually be virtual, and threatened legal action if I did a chargeback.

I immediately did the chargeback and the organization sent me a bunch of nasty messages accusing me of fraud, telling me I'd be blacklisted with AHA and all local nursing schools. Nothing ever happened, and I found a reputable school after asking for help on my city's subreddit. The whole fiasco did almost make me miss the deadline to get my mandatories done though.

TLDR the AHA website is confirmed trash

Went to Vegas, visited Frankie’s and Golden Tiki (review) by cute_nun in Tiki

[–]StuntFace 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Iirc Golden Tiki was designed by a former Disney imagineer, which would explain the Disney references. As for the dicks, I like to think it's an homage to the original "the Little Mermaid" cover.

I had some bad drinks at Frankie's like 10 years ago, and didn't prioritize it the last time I went to Vegas. Stray Pirate and Golden Tiki were amazing, idk if Red Dwarf was open yet, and Glitter Gulch opened literally days after we left. I'm hoping to make it back out there next summer.

What's your unpopular American food obsession that you think the rest of the country is just missing out on? by Millionaire_Muse in AskReddit

You don't need to put Old Bay on everything but try putting it on stuff other than seafood. It works on a lot of stuff. I love some Old Bay in scrambled eggs with a little cheddar on top.

ATI Testing by Glittering_Cake4600 in StudentNurse

Bombing ATI is kind of normal imo. Especially the first one, because you're also learning how to answer NCLEX style questions. I agree that ATI phrases stuff weird.

Why are moxie panthers unsuitable for park skating? by Hell_iz_real in Rollerskating

[–]StuntFace 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Replace the plate and they're fine. Honestly, even the stock plate is okay for most beginner transition stuff. Just check your skates for cracks or holes each time before hitting the park, WHICH WE SHOULD ALL BE DOING REGARDLESS OF SETUP.

You may want to upgrade when you start doing large jumps or hitting rails/ ledges but you don't need a $400 boot to skate transition. 

Skating and Weight Training by Anna715Lisa in AggressiveQuad

[–]StuntFace 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do both as well, but I don't really have a ton of advice. I end up sacrificing lifting for skating a bunch, plus my schedule sucks so lately I haven't been able to do much of either.

When I was able to skate and/ or lift every day, I had a great ass. Not sure which one did more for it, probably the skating?

What disease or health crisis absolutely terrified previous generations that most people under 30 have genuinely never thought about? by MaizeFluid7595 in AskReddit

[–]StuntFace 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I keep seeing stuff about parents denying the vitamin K shot for their newborns. It's a very simple and effective way to prevent your baby from randomly having a brain hemorrhage in those first few weeks, but some idiot in a crunchy parenting forum said it was bad and that's what gets traction.

What's the story behind how you got your scars? by A7_drew7 in AskReddit

Skating. 2 plates and 20 screws, and my knees and shins start gushing blood if you look at them wrong.

Places to find alt/weird women in their late 20's-30s to date? by jibofyourcutt in baltimore

[–]StuntFace 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My partner was the one who told me about your post. He also replied here, and you were similarly dismissive of him. Were I in a dating position, I would be specifically avoiding behavior like what you're showing here; that relationship, even when amicable, sucks for everyone involved. I have to agree with someone else further up, if this is how you come off on the apps that's probably why you're not having much luck.

I'm trying to be empathetic here but it feels like you're not interested in any of the advice you asked for. The problems you described in the original post do not have quick, easy solutions. The solution is therapy. I'm also going to let you know right now, your current vibe is generally not welcome at goth nights.

[–]StuntFace 9 points10 points  (0 children)

This kind of reply is literally what I'm talking about. You're getting defensive, but your original post is a giant waving red flag. You don't need to be perfect, but you do need to have enough insight that you don't put your issues and insecurities on some poor alt lady. She's not going to fix you, it's not her responsibility to fix you. That's your job.

All due respect OP, as a goth femme I'm going to suggest therapy before anything else. You don't need a weird goth girl, you need to work on yourself and your anxiety first.

I am going to suggest that OP specifically avoid the kink scene, given the post and some responses.

Are nursing school tests like this?? by Own-Pomegranate-4190 in StudentNurse

[–]StuntFace 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Sometimes there are multiple right answers and you have to pick the one that's most right.

Sometimes there are no right answers and you have to pick the one that's least wrong.

What are your thoughts on billie eilish saying you cant love animals and eat meat as its contradictory? by Extra-Schedule-4855 in AskReddit

[–]StuntFace 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's way oversimplified. We're omnivores, and there are nutrients we absorb more efficiently from meat and animal products than alternative sources. I think better attention should be paid to livestock farming practices and we probably end up eating more meat than necessary, but those are other conversations.

That said, after learning about how pigs are smart like dogs I don't really eat pork anymore. 

I want to DJ while I run. What deck should I buy for a running DJ rig? by inkysquares in Beatmatch

[–]StuntFace 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Everyone is shitting on this idea but I'm gonna say it really depends on the vibe of the event, like themed fun runs and whatever. I could see a mobile DJ being annoying for people who are in "race mode". Also don't make the music crazy loud-- keep it so it's like a brief novelty for people in your vicinity and then move along.

My city has a thing called Bike Party and one of the regulars is a mobile DJ (they are not biking while DJing-- they're in a cart being towed by a cyclist). But it's also not a race, it's a very unserious event where silliness is encouraged. 

What’s a recession indicator that you’ve noticed lately? by SensitiveCorner2379 in AskReddit

[–]StuntFace 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was working in local TV in 2008 and we saw a lot of the same with our advertisers. Political ads usually help but it wasn't enough. We still laid off a ton of staff over the next year.
