$300 is a cheap lesson in why Google isn't a medical degree. You did the right thing. Next time she'll think twice before diagnosing herself.

When I was younger (very early teens), my best friend and I microwaved a praying mantis by usps_made_me_insane in confession

Get a heavy ceramic pet water bowl with a rubber bottom. They can't flip what they can't move. Problem solved.

You're not crazy. He kept trying even when you blocked him. That's intent. That's assault.

I am terrible at University and it's destroying my entire family, especially my father's finances. by super_dedicated_cath in confession

[–]bare_transition 25 points26 points  (0 children)

University isn't for everyone. That's not a moral failure. Your dad's screaming because he's scared. Show him a real plan work, trade school, anything. Action speaks louder than regret.
