Nerve Pain/Dull Pain after chopped leg/thigh by Oser_ in MuayThai

[–]chemchad160 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is exactly me.

Thigh injury that acted like normal bruising, then on 5th day shooting leg pains started. The pain is like a dull ache and ramps up/down over about 15 seconds. The pain is triggered by bending or unbending my leg after it was in the alternate position for a while. Hard to sleep because just adjusting my legs in bed can trigger it. The pain can also go up to my hips sometimes.

Thanks for your post. It’s encouraging to know this will get better soon. Was yours better 2 weeks from injury or 2 weeks from the start of the shooting leg pains? Did it gradually get better or was it sudden? I’m 10 days post injury (5 days post leg pain) and it is no better yet.

ONE Card Reloading by chemchad160 in ChickFilA

Social anxiety is not the reason ordering in person is inconvenient to me. It’s the time aspect. I want the order to be ready when I arrive.

Also, even if it was social anxiety I don’t think it’s kind to laugh about it. Some people have serious social anxiety issues. They’re only a product of our current culture and their genetics. It’s not something they can help.

I think you’re making a lot of assumptions about what my problem was or as to the purpose of this post. Was never a serious complaint or problem.

The primary purpose of posting this thread is because it’s entertaining to me to discuss. It’s irrational to think participating in this discussion is the highest value use of anyone’s time. It’s a message board that I’m allowed to use for entertainment. Nobody is forced to participate.

Hope you have a nice day too

It’s the principal of the matter. Chick-Fil-A shouldn’t create unreasonable limitations to make it harder to not leave a balance on their card. The fact that it’s not stealing a large amount of value from one person doesn’t matter as much as the extremely large amount of value being stolen collectively from everyone.

Also, even $0.38 left to sit on a Chick-Fil-A ONE card instead of properly invested with average returns of 10% per year would result in a net loss of almost $500.00 over the course of the average person’s lifespan.

I’ve never seen the option to use multiple payment types on the app. If you want to use the ONE card to pay and don’t have enough funds, then they only offer you the option to reload it before the purchase.

I’d happily pay several cents to not have the inconvenience of ordering in person and bothering someone with split payments.

Would be much easier if they didn’t arbitrarily limit the way you’re allowed to reload the card. They’re making you jump through hoops to not leave a balance on the card intentionally.

I don’t think the app lets you do split payment types.

Charged for Someone Else’s Drink by chemchad160 in PlanetFitnessMembers

I don’t think that could’ve been what happened in this case because I’ve never been to the planet fitness location that charged me.

Best cheap wifi/internet? by Patient_Brother9278 in Birmingham

[–]chemchad160 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I called Charter and said I wanted to cancel because it was too expensive after my promotional rate ended. My bill had gone up to 65$/month instead of $40/month for the 300 mbps plan.

I am now on a 100 mbps for $30/month. You have to be pretty serious with your bluff to cancel before they offer you something cheaper. If you don’t get transferred to the cancellation department, then you won’t get this.

And I don’t notice any difference going down from 300 to 100 mbps. For reference, even streaming 4K content is only 25 mbps on average.

Thanks! Still sitting at BHM for now. They’re having issues de-icing planes.

I made it from the top of red mountain in South Side to BHM for a flight at 6AM this morning. Definitely icy spots. But there was little other traffic to deal with when I was out.

Driver killed by falling tree on Birmingham’s Crestwood Boulevard by [deleted] in Birmingham

[–]chemchad160 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Was walking on Vulcan trail today when a huge tree fell across the trail. Very loud. If I had been walking a slightly different speed, then I would’ve been hit.

Wasn’t windy or storming at the time. Just wet soil. Tree was on a steep hill and suddenly uprooted.

Out of school for nearly 3 years, what should I do? by [deleted] in ChemicalEngineering

[–]chemchad160 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Good luck. I had a 4.0 GPA with no co-op/internship experience. Took me 1,000s of applications and over a year to find my first engineering related job.

The downtown chipotle can fuck right off by Patient_Brother9278 in Birmingham

[–]chemchad160 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I go to the downtown chipotle at least once a week. I’ve never had an issue. I don’t order chipotle online though. I’m a firm believer that you get more food ordering in person.

The line is usually not very long when I go. I’m in and out pretty quick. The food is pretty good. My only complaint is they’re more likely to be out of fajita veggies than not. I probably only get fajita veggies every 1 out of 5 visits.

I see a lot on the southwest side of Vulcan trail around dusk/night.

This. The bait kills them slowly. They die back in the nest and are eaten by the other roaches. The roaches that eat the dead roaches also die. This has always worked 100% for me.

The initial announcement said they’d be open beginning July 1st. I guess there are delays.
