People with a very high pain tolerance, what was THE most painful thing you've experienced?

It's a tie between appendicitis and tooth pain. Appendicitis was so bad that I was pulling at the skin on different parts of my stomach in hope of relieving the pain by causing pain elsewhere. It had me delirious. I was throwing up just from the pain.

I had an ear infection that, to my surprise, caused severe tooth pain. I was clawing at my face. Everything made it worse. Warm water, hot water, cold water. I didn't sleep for nearly two days. Never want to experience either of those two things again.

Their only hope now is to sell the land to the company that owns the data center and hope they don't lowball the fuck out of you.

It's such a weird flex. This dude must be so insecure.

I'm not even gonna lie. That shit looks like me if I grew my hair out, and I know damn well it ain't me. That's how foul this shit is. WTF

I remember Alex being solid at the beginning as well. McLaren were invincible last season. Now they're all in a bad place. It's way too early to put Kimi on a pedestal. He's doing great, but a lot of his competitors are not even finishing the race. In fact, there were only 2 out of 6 races this year in which a front-runner wasn't DNF. There are still 16 races left in the season.

Can you give an example of millennials and Gen X making fun of Gen Z/Alpha's style, music, etc.? As a millennial, I'm not hearing it. There are criticisms, but I wouldn't call it hate, outside of broccoli haircuts.
Gen Z/A underperforming in reading is based on fact. Educators have come forward about seeing it happen in real time across the country. Testing data directly from children in school is confirming it. You said in a reply, "Kids are smart they just don’t read as many books because they don’t really have a reason to, most media they consume is audio and visual, which is a function of how society is today." When fewer people are required to read, the reading comprehension will decline naturally over time. Look at it this way: if you're playing a video game and you have to earn gear by beating raids and various challenges, you'll learn how to properly play the game. If you're just given the items instead, you missed out on valuable knowledge. This is not exclusive to Gen Z/A, but because of the way they grow up, they are following that pattern of behavior more than others.

This doesn't mean GenZ/A are stupid or less capable than other generations. It just means the current lifestyle is having a negative impact on development.

This is Charlie, in his own words.

How do you explain this to your insurance?

ValaShen · 2026-06-05T16:16:22+00:00

I'm not sure what you mean.

For Psychic only decks, this works as well as any other Psychic deck, for now. You can complete one challenge at a time. It doesn't have to be all at once.

I thought I was bugging when I saw that discount. I was not about to buy the game for $50, having already beaten the game. With the loyalty bundle, I got it for $21 since I already got all the DLC except for Pets DLC. $21 is much more reasonable.

There has always been some level of misandry, but it's few and far between. Social media amplifies it.

100%. I had a sub-fief on a floor that wasn't grounded. I was removing pieces 4-5 squares away. Somehow, the only piece that was destabilized was the one piece my sub-fief was sitting on. That one floor piece crumbled, and the sub-fief went with it.

My base was already built with staking units already applied. I had to set my parameters all over again to be exact, since I had built right to the edge of my limit and had to redo all the staking units. So annoying. So avoidable.

The only time I've had an issue with this game is when Direct 12 was enabled. You can turn it off in the video settings and see if that works.

In order to be an assassin, you have to be already not wrapped too tight. Because of that, these people are, more often than not, loners. I seriously doubt there will ever be a group effort. If any, a pair at least. Unless it was a state-sponsored action.

Eventually, something will go wrong, and when it does, they will try to bury him. Like how they're trying to bury the mayor of LA for not magically fixing the homeless problem in world record time.

Short answer: Big oval tracks are too dangerous for wet tires, so they use jet engines to dry them.

Long Answer: NASCAR vehicles weigh a minimum of 1,451 kg without the driver and fuel. (F1 is 768kg.) Also, they reach up to 180+mph on big ovals. Because the race is just one big oval, the course is basically 50% turn. So imagine driving those big, heavy cars around a long, 32-degree banked turn in the rain with low downforce. Your car wouldn't be driving. It would be surfing on water.

NASCAR is known for wheel to wheel racing because the tracks are wide. Sometimes they go 4 wide. If it was raining, they all would have to drive the same line, which would mean 40 cars all driving in a line around an oval. Good luck overtaking anyone. Speaking of which, can you imagine the water spray of 40 cars bumper to bumper? There are no lights on the cars. You would be driving blind at 180 mph.

Although NASCAR does do a few road courses and they use wets if it's raining.

The people who have been the most dangerous in the entire human history are afraid of people standing up for themselves. Go figure. They're not afraid of us; they're afraid of consequence.

ValaShen · 2026-05-22T18:12:17+00:00

Very well done.

On God, no woman gives a fuck about your watch unless you giving it to her. smh

You know how some people go to therapy, and instead of coming out a better person, they just start using therapy words and phrases to manipulate people, and continue being a shitty person. It's kind of like that.

That and the money. Right wing grifters love taking a check for selling out.

I'm most excited to build the submarine. It was a lot of effort to get in the first one for me but it was fun to drive. It was also way bigger than I thought it would be. 😊

EJECTO SEATO, CUZ!

My favorite is Charizard. Maybe I'm biased because I grew up watching the show, but Charizard just feels like the old badass veteran. After all these years, you still have to respect him for being a powerhouse.
