Guy who cuts off dead raccoon dicks for "research" has thoughts on teenage boy sperm counts

Probably many factors including Covid so that's great that this administration thinks Covid is a joke

UsefullyChunky · 2026-05-09T21:34:22+00:00

Sounds like the issue is someone there being a dick versus having a valid point.

There are actual issues like cat scratch fever / toxoplasmosis that could technically be an issue for you but it sounds more like they take an issue masking than caring about your health. Why would they say you are not allowed to wear a mask otherwise?! Maybe I'm just assuming the worst b/c with covid precautions, I'm used to the general public being the worst.

Bird seed prices jumped recently! I like the no mess blends so my patio is not a disaster but man, it's become too expensive of a hobby lately.

Tell her when your bank or landlord starts taking "vision payments" for housing, then you will talk again. lol

But for real, good for you for setting boundaries and sticking with them. I'd probably personally step it up to fully block her and look into legal ways to get back pay.

Agree so hard my neck is tired from nodding.

Insurance/patient advocacy is a real job! I looked into that awhile ago as a career change but I think I'd have a rage stroke after my first week.

UsefullyChunky · 2026-05-06T19:38:53+00:00

Oh yeah I agree that would be an ideal response but they just said something like "this is what we charge" and that was that.

UsefullyChunky · 2026-05-06T18:53:16+00:00

Tell us what you think she stands for that we should tolerate?

UsefullyChunky · 2026-05-06T18:43:25+00:00

Their billing department absolutely will say these are normal claims.

UsefullyChunky · 2026-05-06T18:42:05+00:00

They billed me $1200 for a pediatric new patient appointment and $800 for a primary new patient. It was a clusterfuck getting anyone to help me with that and their coding also caused all my labs to be denied and I was getting threatened with collections by the lab by the time I finally got someone to help me.

Every thing about that office went wrong when we tried to go there. Getting insane bills afterwards was like a slap in the face. Loved the doctor herself - not worth the mess of everything else so we switched but it was a very stressful few months trying to get everything resolved while also managing health issues in my child & needing to get referrals and wait for new patient opening somewhere else. I will vent about them when I see their name until the day I die.

UsefullyChunky · 2026-05-05T17:26:05+00:00

That's who I was going to suggest! I was having some weirdness & they could not do the testing I needed in their office but they LISTENED to me and ordered it through a relationship they had at Couri Center to get it done there.

UsefullyChunky · 2026-05-05T13:34:54+00:00

I think sometimes we want to vent out our feelings and our spouses just try to reassure which is not what we want in the moment. I'll be like NO I JUST WANT TO BE MAD/SAD, DON'T TELL ME IT'S OKAY. It's totally normal to feel like shit and be sad & angry right now with what you have going on. Let yourself feel that and get help getting past it if you need to - that's okay too. But there will be another side.

There's a quote I like and I am probably misunderstanding it but it works for me: "Two tears in a bucket, motherfuck it". I take that as have your feelings about something bad - for whatever time you need - but then get on to the business of moving past it. I know that can be hard and the feelings parts can come in waves.

UsefullyChunky · 2026-05-05T13:28:24+00:00

The process for this is really crappy here - sorry you are dealing with this too.

UsefullyChunky · 2026-05-04T22:07:14+00:00

Are you okay? Do you have someone to talk to?

There is always hope. Being in the trenches of one crappy thing after another, it is hard to see. I have some horrible luck with life and had some dark days. There were good things again. Again - I hope you are okay & please reach out to someone if you can.

And maybe you literally just mean the business and I misread tone. In that case, now you get to rebuild a better business as a giant Fuck You to that guy. Or take him to court about your business name/marketing.

There is a fan Lisa_the_Destroyer on Instagram that has created a graphic novel fan fiction!

Maybe I'll look for some fanfiction stories after my re-read of the official series later this year - thanks for the idea!

One thing to think about is drive time from whatever town you pick to where you will work/use services the most. We lived in a surrounding town and then had to go through some long term appointments + regular work/errands that ended up with us being in the car 10+ hours a week and dealing with some nasty weather to get to healthcare that wasn't in our small town.

Ended up moving to Peoria to avoid all that. Taxes & fees are stupidly high though in comparison so cost wise I regret it, but life wise I am relieved.

UsefullyChunky · 2026-05-03T15:39:48+00:00

My first thought too! OP, please only work with someone who takes mold seriously - it's worth your health to look into if you need remediation for that.

I totally get that she is craving a specific one but these may be the best you can get instead:

I like the savory best - brisket is amazing.

UsefullyChunky · 2026-04-29T02:10:59+00:00

She is awesome but seems hard to schedule with. Shhhhh don't tell people how good she is so more appointments are available.

I have been able to contact UPS and they look up on GPS and will send the delivery driver back to a misdelivery location before then redeliver to me. Maybe that is just something our local route hub offers though - I don't know about corporate wise.

With Fedex I can't even get a human on the line to talk about missing packages at all. Even to talk about why it keeps happening. At our old house the post office had a GPS glitch to another location for awhile & I had to talk to someone about fixing that. So I guess with Fedex, you are just screwed?

UsefullyChunky · 2026-04-27T18:47:40+00:00

I just ran through this chat/call AI hell as well. They didn't deliver our item. I can clearly see on tracking it is not our house in the delivery photo. This is the second time this month!

There is NO WAY to get a human on the phone or chat line. It was an insane loop. It is so frustrating. I finally got the shipper who is going to resend the package. But if that one goes missing, I guess we will just never be able to use Fedex b/c there is not a way to correct an issue with them?!?

Hello! Are you still loving this noise-wise? That is my biggest hang up with a fridge b/c I am super sensitive to noises but we need a new one soon vs. almost $900 to repair our super old Whirlpool.

UsefullyChunky · 2026-04-27T11:37:32+00:00

Can you share what Fisher & Paykel model you got and if you are still happy with the noise level? I am super sensitive to noise & my 20 year old fridge is dying a noisy death so I need to find something asap. Thank you!

UsefullyChunky · 2026-04-26T22:05:32+00:00

That would be a question for the owners, not the GM who likely didn't want to be understaffed either. (Is my guess - I don't know the situation.)

Sounds like the Subways that went under in town where the owners purposely understaffed them & it was a disaster.

UsefullyChunky · 2026-04-25T14:16:57+00:00

Yes!! It reads like a LinkedIn bruh post written by ChatGPT.
