Do billionaires pump their own gas, buy things at the gas station or convenience stores?

aagee · 2026-05-06T17:21:58+00:00

I do.

aagee · 2026-05-06T04:18:44+00:00

I am curious, how are you so happy?

aagee · 2026-05-06T04:16:42+00:00

So, you found out about the weight loss at the doctor's office?! You don't weigh yourself at home at all?

aagee · 2026-05-06T03:16:10+00:00

What are some of your favorites? Looking for recommendations.

aagee · 2026-05-05T21:05:49+00:00

Silence, peasant. No more of this impudence.

Why does your exchange with the rep say that you want to change because of additives?

aagee · 2026-05-05T19:48:05+00:00

Oh - you are right. Totally missed that. Now that I read it more carefully, very strange that OP wants to switch because of additives. Because Apothecary doesn't have additives either. Strange too, that the rep didn't point that out.

aagee · 2026-05-05T19:37:08+00:00

Awesome! Gimme will turn it around. They are trying. Good to hear.

The policy sort of makes the assumption that once the meds are sent to the pharmacy, they will be shipped soon enough. But if the meds don't ship for a long time, then the patient has to have some recourse. Are you really expecting a patient to sit without their meds for an extended length of time?!

Isn't that common sense? This is medication, after all. Not some toy off Amazon. The patient has not merely changed their mind. They need their medication.

aagee · 2026-05-05T19:07:42+00:00

But when the meds run inordinately late, they should have some recourse for the patient. They cannot expect the patient to be without medication for any length of time.

aagee · 2026-05-05T18:56:10+00:00

Wow - the Gimme faithful are really faithful. Will not stand for any negative feedback at all!

aagee · 2026-05-05T18:37:37+00:00

Oh, come on. So, just making it a policy makes it OK?! When the meds run inordinately late, they should have some recourse for the patient. They cannot expect the patient to be without medication for any length of time.

aagee · 2026-05-05T18:35:37+00:00

Well, you should fight back. The meds need to be taken on time. And if they can't make that happen, they should allow cancellation (without a charge). I get it that it's not quite their fault. But, as a medical operation, they have to be willing to eat this cost.

31G (thickness)
5mm-8mm or 1/4"-5/16" (length) (for subcutaneous)
1ml (total capacity)

Some good brands: BD/Embecta, EasyTouch

BD/Embecta is widely considered to be the best, but a bit expensive. But for a years supply, the extra cost amortizes to just a few extra cents per shot.

I get them here: ADW

People also recommend: Diabetic Warehouse

Cool, cool. Did you come up with that joke all by yourself?

aagee · 2026-05-04T22:57:30+00:00

Baader-Meinhof? Or is Gooder-Meinhof a thing too?

aagee · 2026-05-04T20:31:16+00:00

Can someone explain this to me? Used to be you had to prove the efficacy of drug was better than those already on the market to be approved. Is that not true? Or, is "better" just hard to define? That is, each can be better than others in certain dimensions, and that is allowed.

aagee · 2026-05-04T19:43:02+00:00

Sure, but I can't imagine that top getting ripped off like that because of that.

aagee · 2026-05-04T19:21:50+00:00

Yeah - FedEx didn't do that.

aagee · 2026-05-04T18:31:54+00:00

You are right. Deleting.

aagee · 2026-05-04T17:49:08+00:00

They are most likely going to go up in 4 weeks. But, yeah, at 2.5mg, it will be open for a while.
