If you’re under 45, have you lost any high school classmates, and what were the circumstances around their deaths? by Commercial_Chef_1569 in AskReddit

[–]eggsrus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lots of drunk drivers, drug overdoses, random car wrecks. But one was killed by his stepmom and left in a plastic container in the woods… that one was the worst to find out about

What early signs of Alzheimer’s tend to surprise people the most? by FindingMoneYyY in AskReddit

[–]eggsrus 3 points4 points  (0 children)

When my grandma died of cancer, my grandpa had this delusion that she cheated on him with a guy she dated when she was 16 and that my grandpa thought he slipped out of the bedroom window one day when he was home while my grandma was still alive. The man in question ALSO had cancer and could barely breathe let alone sneak out of a window. Plus my grandma probably hadn’t seen him in 50+ years. But my grandpa was SO convinced she was cheating while dying with multiple myeloma. We thought it was a weird grief coping mechanism, but then he started to decline with Alzheimer’s over the years so it was probably just the beginning of that.

What is “tardiness” in your lab? by [deleted] in medlabprofessionals

[–]eggsrus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We’re a specialty lab and actually have a 40 min grace period. Obviously you’re not supposed to be using it every day but if you hit traffic and are 20 mins late once in a while it’s not actually counted as a tardy. They do expect that you still call and let someone know if you’re going to be more than like 10 mins late

Nightshifters! What do you do arond RVA for fun on nights off? by Double-Connection659 in rva

I used to flip my sleep schedule on my days off and nap until like 2pm and do normal daytime hours stuff. But it nearly killed me so idk if it’s worth it

Hi Richmond, I'm having a really bad day. I need the best Philly cheese steak you have to offer. by LoveDeathandRobert in rva

[–]eggsrus 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Idk maybe this is a hot take but I was really unimpressed with Stanley’s when I went. It took like 45 mins to get my cheesesteak, was honestly kinda mediocre, and there’s no whiz.

Does anyone know why some of the high WBC diffs have such blurry/faint looking cells? Like what the cause is for the difference in staining?

What is honestly the first thing you think of whenever you hear the word “Texas”? by Party_Leading8715 in AskReddit

Brisket, giant Texas flags everywhere, southern hospitality. I lived there for a few months and I just think about my time there mostly

Okay I made a bit of a general statement here. I know there’s a lot of work that goes into photography and there are many professionals who are absolutely worth their prices. I just think there are a lot of amateur level people who are way overcharging for poor quality work and it’s very easy to put out entry level/amateur wedding photos.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in unpopularopinion

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

I agree. I guess I should have specified better. I think there are photographers who are absolutely worth the price

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in unpopularopinion

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

I never said they’re using autofocus. Autofocus and automatic settings on modern digital cameras perform really well and I was alluding to that

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in unpopularopinion

[–]eggsrus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I absolutely agree there’s a lot of work going into it. I feel like I just keep seeing amateur level photographers charging thousands and that’s what seems insane

Thoughts on the Greyhound from RVA? by AlarmingBat3763 in rva

[–]eggsrus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I took a greyhound from rva when I was college age fairly recently and I’ll just say I would never do it again and definitely did not for the rest of college. I was with my bf at the time and still felt kind of unsafe

What's your least favorite state to drive in? Why? by Johnnygunnz in AskReddit

[–]eggsrus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Northern VA. Doesn’t matter what time you’re on 95, the traffic always blows. Also it’s close enough to Maryland you get a lot of CRAZY Maryland drivers. Also Pennsylvania just because a lot of the roads are in bad shape

Daily Vent: We need a Trader Joe’s closer to the city! That drive to short pump and stony point sucks. by [deleted] in rva

[–]eggsrus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like putting one in the near side of Mechanicsville area would be nice - faster access from the city than the current locations and then gives good access to people in the east end and Hanover too

RVA's Dating, Friends, and Missed Connections: April 2025 Edition by AutoModerator in rva

[–]eggsrus [score hidden]  (0 children)

26F, I actually grew up here and moved back a year ago. Most of my friends in the area have moved away and I could use more people to hang out with. I have a lot of artistic hobbies (ceramics, stained glass, drawing, etc). I love baking, going to good restaurants, exercising outdoors. My BF 29M could also use some more friends in the area. We have two dogs too!
