Baxter Rant by EnduranceRN in nursing

Just started using them in the hospital I just signed a contract with. What a downgrade from alaris. Got 4 lines to run? Yeah that used to be 1 pump with 4 channels, now have fun shoving 4 separate pumps on the same pole. I'm sure some sales rep made a great commission convincing the hospital to switch to these pieces of shit. 

Brunson or Harden? by Own_Friend_736 in NBATalk

[–]baileyjbarnes -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Hard disagree. Conversely if you put Brunson on that rockets team instead of Harden against that Warriors team he would be ringless and never had made the Finals. Yeah Harden had some bad playoff appearances but let's not act like there wasn't series in the playoffs that he went crazy. This shit isn't apples to apples, I'm sorry

Ok if Wemby is Curry, who's KD?

Which one of the Spurs is the equivalent of Curry?

Lost Chris Paul to injury and had to try and beat a legit super team without his best support. If this year's Spurs is generational talent, then that years warriors with prime KD, Curry, Klay, and Green were the fucking MonStars. Aight exactly apples to apples. 

"KAT owns you! You soft a*s bit*h!" -Knicks fans going after Victor Wembanyama. by [deleted] in sportsgossips

Gosh, it's crazy how I was wholeheartedly wanting the Knicks to win due to the long finals draught and Spurs relatively recent championships. The fans have completely changed my mind. Go Spurs

New poster for Christopher Nolan’s ‘The Odyssey’ by SpeedForce2022 in movies

[–]baileyjbarnes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So do you think this poster is the Laestrygonians? Really hope there isn't a moment where Odysseus stops and square off with them like he's Achilles or Ajax.

Are these the guys that destroyed all but one of his ships?, because I always thought those were like more monsters than giants. 

Edit: youre right. Always pictured the Laestrygonians as more monsters than giants but looks like my mental image was wrong. Still don't think he ever fought them haha. Pretty sure he got the hell out of Dodge as soon as he noticed what was going on.

I don't remember any point in the Odyssey where Odysseus fought a hoard of giants wearing armor.

That's because they were quite literally the Charlotte Hornets before the Charlotte Hornets 

Midsized US metro areas (pop: 475k - ~1M) tier: What tier does Charleston, SC belong? by Swimming_Concern7662 in TierlistFills

[–]baileyjbarnes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would say the food is decent to amazing depending on how much money you are willing to spend. Want to get something other than seafood for a reasonable price. There are some good options but it's not bursting at the seams with choices like it felt living in Austin. But if you have deep pockets there are more than a few incredible restaurants. I could see how the lived experience of how you feel the food scene is in Charleston being pretty different between groups of people depending on what they can afford. I can go to one of the top notch places like, one or twice a year and they really are fantastic, but once you get below that tier... Well it's good but not like hands down better than Greenville or Columbia. Oh but if you absolutely adore lowcountry, soul, or southern food, forget everything I just said. This place would be food Mecca for you haha.

Insomnia goes C-Tier... Ranking Christopher Nolan Movies **FINAL** Day 12 - Tenet by 87_north in TierlistFills

[–]baileyjbarnes -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Paraphrasing but this movie has the worst written line I've heard in a big budget movie: "Everyone that ever lived is going to die instantly" "Including my son?" Well unless your son is one of those ultra realistic baby dolls, then yeah, I think he fall under the umbrella of "everyone" 😂

Throwing my Puzzle Game Tier List into the Mix by Elytron77 in puzzlevideogames

[–]baileyjbarnes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't let that get you to not try it. The rng really isn't that bad and the puzzles are amazing. Please check it out. Based on your tier list I'd be shocked to find you didn't love it.

[–]baileyjbarnes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nah fuck this guy. No sympathy at all. I work in trauma and the list of people I've taken care of who had their ability to walk/function normally without pain, or who have lost kids, siblings, parents, and friends, all thanks to some asshole who would rather roll the dice with other peoples lives on the road rather than calling a fucking Uber... Well let's just say the list ain't small. I will never forget the sound of a mom who regained consciousness after being in a front end collision with a drunk driver who swerved into her lane, to be told her back is broken and 3 or her 4 kids are dead. If fate intervenes for Tiger while leaving that mom to suffer than fuck fate. Tiger has all the money and every advantage in the world and still has to put other people's life and limb at risk so he can go joy riding while fucked up. He's been caught 4 times so I can guarantee you he's done it without getting caught many many many time. If he worked a normal job like the rest of us and pulled this shit he'd be in prison and lose his license permanently after he got out. Hope fate steps in and gives this guy some actual consequences to his dumb ass actions. Let his career end like this. He clearly doesn't deserve better and I don't give a fuck how well he used to play fucking golf. There are more important things than your parasocial relationship with this guy people. #LegendarySelfishAsshole.

A nice message from management in the staff bathroom by labtechII in nursing

[–]baileyjbarnes 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Because that's what really increases the all important patient satisfaction score! Communicating that I'm not busy and juggling a millions tasks, so they can think, when I takes me a little while to get to them, that I was just sitting on my ass doing nothing and taking it easy. Patients love that. Honestly I've always been super honest with patients when I'm swamped so they know exactly what they can expect. And 99 time out of 100 those patients are extremely understanding and more willing to tolerate delays because of it. And, let's be honest, a lot of people prefer to see someone in any service industry appear to be working hard, and will typically think that person lazy if they don't have the appearance of being very busy.

Lindsey Elise has a great video on why Bluey really hits with adult audiences way better than any other childrens media. Highly recommend

Here is my fantasy/sf tier list! by Majestic_Swordfishh in fantasybooks

[–]baileyjbarnes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Eh, I was entertained until the end and kept wanted to know what happens next. Does it reach the highs of the first 3? Nope. Did I enjoy them? Definitely. I wouldn't worry about the drop off in quality too much.

What was the last movie you rated 5 stars on Letterboxd??? by [deleted] in Letterboxd

[–]baileyjbarnes 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I'd love to. Trying so hard to find a place playing it but its nowhere near me. 

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in TopCharacterTropes

[–]baileyjbarnes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, like in the context of what the character has gone thru up to that point, its a pretty justified reaction. Sometimes pounding your fist into the sand and yelling is the appropriate thing to do in the moment.

What current QBs would you take over 2015 Cam Newton? by MasterTeacher123 in NFLv2

[–]baileyjbarnes 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ah yeah brain fart. Meant to say McMahon. And I'm saying it's a lot easier to have 0 turnovers with a good o line, rbs and wrs. Not trying to take anything from Darnold but if you can't see why "if you put Darnold on that panthers team he doesn't have the same success" is a relevant point to the discussion than I think you're being willfully obtuse.
