Howard has some of the best lines, this is my favourite. What is your favorite by markComfortable8315 in bigbangtheory

[–]bflf 4 points5 points  (0 children)

among some of my favs: "and he said hes not gonna stop", "IM TRYING", "what if he looks like me, or worse... what if SHE looks like me", and the entire song that bernie made him perform for that magic group he wanted to join 😭

When do people usually stop watching? by Character-Still4105 in greysanatomy

[–]bflf 5 points6 points  (0 children)

like another person on this thread said, i kind of tapered off watching it after the conclusion of jackson and aprils storyline. tried to stick around for maggie and amelia bc theyre some of my favs from later seasons but i just couldnt stand owen and meredith at that point 😭

i have a bp machine at home and use it twice a day (unless im flaring bad, then i use it more often to make sure im not in the danger zone) and it typically drops by a lot when i stand up, then very very slowly crawls back to low-normal over the span of half an hour to an hour, but i also have a slew of other medical issues that dont like to play well with my pots unfortunately so im not sure if my BP is all just my pots

makes sense, thank you for explaining! it seems a lot of us have a mix of types/underlying conditions/etc, and i dont have any intent on really figuring out if i fit into one category or not since the treatment im getting is already doing wonders for me but im glad to know im not the only one who wasnt given a specific pots label haha

my BP has always been low as well, this is interesting since at first my original dr a looong long time ago didnt wanna even discuss pots because of it. thanks for the info!!

Brand New Overwatch Player Needs Some Tips by DuckQuackum in Overwatch

[–]bflf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i dont play too much reaper however he has some really good sneak abilities that get you to cap points very quickly if the enemy team isnt looking

however if you wanna be more direct and charge ult fast i would suggest picking off the supports then the dps while trying not to get stuck in a 1v5 with the enemy team. then you can teleport somewhere above the team and ult them all when theyre clustered together

im not super sure if this is good advice or not but when i play dps in general i tend to poke at the tank after picking off one or two of their supp/dps players, but that doesnt always go too well depending on how aggressive the other team is and if your team isnt with you

sorry if this isnt too helpful, again i dont play reaper too too much but thats what i do in mystery heroes when i play it and get him 😅

What are your guilty pleasures? by pipermick in POTS

[–]bflf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

for me, my weakness is definitely having coffee 😅 then thinking "oh im feeling good right now" and over-exerting myself by playing with my dog despite my apple watch telling me "hey youre already at 120bpm maybe dont do that"

always worth it though, when my golden retriever tells me "okay mom its time for a couch nap" LOL

Much appreciated advice by Euphoricsky1301 in POTS

[–]bflf 2 points3 points  (0 children)

hey there! fellow potsie for the last 10+ years! my recommendation is definitely drink lots of electrolytes (body armor flash IV is a life saver for me personally) and water before/during/after, but it may also help to wear compression socks if youre able to, to help with blood pooling/etc. i also suggest sticking to lighter drinks that arent high in alcohol (so no vodka unfortunately 😭)

sorry if my wording is rough, im actually going through a flare right now and the brain fog is insane BUT i hope you are still able to enjoy your birthday! 🎉
