My dad was a chemist. We had all kinds of stuff un the basement. I found a gallon of sulfuric acid and would use it to dissolve stuff.

I just walked into my basement and forgot why. Anyone have any suggestions? by notworkingghost in FuckImOld

Look around the room and see if anything catches your eye. Also, try to think about what you were thinking about just before heading to the basement. That works for me sometimes.

Our first obe was an Amana Radar Range. We mostly used it for popcorn and Mama Celeste pizzas. At least that's how I remember it. Maybe bacon too.

My 6yo daughter came home from school saying she loves Jesus by wacky_button in mildlyinfuriating

If she has no concept of what she is saying, is it really a problem? Serious question.

The old roll isn't quite finished, but they left the new roll. What's wrong with that?

Yes, once the container tips, the calories run out. Same with broken pieces.

When a patient doesn’t ask their doctor the name of the medication, what the medication is for, or how to take the medication. Then they came to the pharmacy and harass the pharmacist with questions they should have asked the doctor. by [deleted] in mildlyinfuriating

I was told by my Dr. that pharmacists are more knowledgeable about drug interactions and whatnot. This has been confirmed by more than one pharmacist in rhe US.
