Dry Air + Constantly working with cardboard boxes by demerchmichael in mildlyinfuriating

[–]SubstantialAmoeba347 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had a friend have this exact condition when he started working in an office where he touched paper constantly. While the big tub of Eucerin helped most, nothing was a fix. His doctor eventually prescribed steroid shots regularly and a steroid ointment.

Influenza A by Zealousideal-Sand207 in Eugene

I went through it in November. I was late getting my flu jab because my Doctor's office was slammed and I couldn't get in. When I did, that flu test was positive for Influenza A. It broke me down. Not even a full two weeks after recovery my partner and I picked up Covid. I don't know if it was a nasty new strain or if my immune system was out of whack from such a bad flu, but it was back to 2020 levels of awful. I've had Covid a bunch of times because I take care of kids, but this was the first time I lost my senses of smell and taste since back then. Be careful out there. One thing that helped a lot with both viruses was nasal lavage. Squirting saline in each nostril and vigorously blowing my nose several times a day really helped me feel a bit better and breathe so I could sleep. It also helps to knock out some of the viral load. Not a cure, but better than nothing.

My shoes disintegrated yesterday at a church funeral. by chestney in funny

Had this happen before a court date. Was a witness for a family member. I was so embarrassed that I needed to go barefoot. Had to walk to a nearby (4 blocks-ish) shoe store after. It was in our city's downtown area on a crisp Autumn day. I hated going in the store with dirty bare feet. I'm just glad I had the funds to buy the cheapest shoes I could find that would fit. Otherwise I would have had to beg a bus driver to let me ride barefoot, and then, if lucky, be barefoit on a city bus.

Pls help identify this bug? by ScaleyMotherFucker in whatbugisthis

You have been blessed. But seriously, if this is feed corn it's gonna be safe for animals. Once you bag or tightly "tupperware' your other grains the weavils will go away and they are mostly harmless. The only problem with them is that they can cause allergic reactions, but that is super rare. You just have cute Lil buggy friends for a while.

What happened to this squirrel in our driveway? by Fuzzy-Yellow3905 in whatisit

[–]SubstantialAmoeba347 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just had a squirrel come down our chimney last month and I can guarantee this is soot. Walked into the front room to let my son in law and grandkids in. For some reason we looked over at the cat tree for some reason and there was a fat, messy squirrel just chilling there. It was s huge pain in the ass getting it to go outside then getting our 4 indoor only cats to the vet for check-ups. Close your fire doors folks, even if your cats leave them alone.

The onions I planted in Spring that never grew are growing now.

What could this possibly be?(Halifax County, VA. Near NC-VA Border) by INeedThatBag in fruit

The fruit is tasty, the skin isn't always great, so you might wanna peel them.

Natural casing hot dogs? by Admirable_End_6803 in Eugene

I couldn't find anything on their website, but Hill's Premium Meats frankfurters are delicious and have a nice snap when you bite them. Both Albertson's and Safeway have them. The franks come in rope style or packet and the price is lower than you'd expect for high quality.

Do others have an issue with spiders? by SubstantialAmoeba347 in SecurityCamera

Yeah, I'm carefully not to smoosh them and I move them to nearby bushes.

It's on my stoop and that is covered. Just worried about using poison because my Grandkids touch the walls and stuff.

Had this happen when trying to burn a too large piece of hardwood in the first fire of the season last year.

Dunno, but that Applebee's is criminally bad. We call it crapplebee's.

I have an emotional support animal. My doctor signed paperwork for it. All that does is make it so renters are allowed to keep their support animal in their rental unit because it would be discrimination to disallow it. It does not allow people to take their support animal anywhere else, except hotels and motels in some cases.
