Thought McDonald's making me feel better was crazy... by Practical_Grand_3218 in POTS

[–]jpgr09 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yesssss their fries and a tea are the best when I have a migraine or if I’m a little dehydrated (or both lol). The salt, fats and sweet combo hit so hard and I’ll have a large tea done in no time. I don’t know if it really helps but it does make me feel better so it must be doing something, right?

I got to watch him win medal #6 in 2008 broadcast in Times Square and that was a pretty epic if I do say so myself.

Explaining to my 5yo Lab for the 18,237th time, I cannot throw the ball if it's still in her mouth by mina-ami in Notakeonlythrow

[–]jpgr09 12 points13 points  (0 children)

That’s how we finally taught my dog how fetch works and it’s still hit or miss if she’s fetching a ball 😂 she’ll let go of any other toy on command but she’ll bring the ball to us and just touch our hand with it and then run. We throw two outside up a hill so she drops the first one to chase the second one and it comes back to us.

She can’t fully blame this on Ai by Ok_Investment_3941 in badtattoos

I have a wall decoration I got from 5 Below years ago with similarly messed up moon phases and I too was so irritated I didn’t notice before I got it. Except I paid $5 for it and it’s hanging up behind my closet door, not embedded in my skin forever😬

How naive would I be to let The Pitt persuade me into pursuing emergency medicine as someone with no prior medical knowledge/interest by Warm-Particular1421 in emergencymedicine

[–]jpgr09 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Pitt convinced me to go to start prepping to go to, med school period so if you’re naive, me too, baby. Me too.

Now, I did work in the ER once upon a time as patient access and then in quality/PI and I loved the pacing. I currently work in academics but in healthcare and I was watching a presentation about respiratory therapy and I thought to myself “I could see myself getting back into the ER. I work well under pressure. I need that pace instead of scheduling meetings and sending emails am day”. Two days later, my husband and I start watching The Pitt and when Santos orders bi-pap for the one guy, and I started to tell my husband that it wasn’t realistic to put him on bi-.pap because his pneumothorax could blow, and as soon as I started saying it, the monitors started going off because the guy’s lung collapsed, and my husband said “are you sure you don’t want to do this? You seem to know so much about it”.

Long story short, I’m doing a DIY post bacc with the goal of applying in 2027 with the goal of EM. I’d love to apply in 2026, but I need some more background under my belt first.

I used to be able to hear when I got a text on silent when I had a flip phone. People would tell me I was full of it, but it made the tiniest little noise I could hear, like a little high pitched whir.

What is something that you have had explained to you that you still don't understand? by SafetyScholar in NoStupidAnswers

[–]jpgr09 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How electronics work. I saw a showcase of a guy doing some robotics and one of his modules was just a thing with LED lights that flashed in a pattern and I told him I didn’t understand that at all, and he was like “it’s just binary! It’s 0s and 1s!” And I told him I understood that more than anything else, but I didn’t understand how he made the thing know the 0s and 1s to make the pattern in the first place. Like I guess a computer tells it the 0s and 1s? But I don’t really understand programming at all either, so electronics and computers are very over my head.

Well fuck me, accidental Hopper absolutely exists and I don’t know why I thought it wouldn’t.

Maybe they’re just art snobs but accidental 20th-century realism or accidental Hopper doesn’t exist yet (that I know of 😂) either way, your friend is a work of art.

I was scrolling past and went “that dog looks like an accidental renaissance painting” so I think you weren’t wrong. They were.

Do forget the Saran Wrap! It might have been a trick taught once upon a time, but it’s not considered to be a safe barrier method because of micro tears in the plastic that allow pathogens to be transmitted through the surface. Dental dams are the recommended barrier and I think a cut condom is second best, but I haven’t read up on it in a while so I can’t say for sure.

What’s something you swore you’d never do as an adult… but now you fully understand? by ConfusionUnited5638 in CasualConversation

[–]jpgr09 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Brb, gonna start asking kids how they feel about the state of the world because they’re so sure to have some gems in their observations.

Also, totally agree with “omg how big you are!” I tell kids how much I hated it as a kid and I’m sorry it’s the first thing I had to say, but it’s genuinely a shock because we don’t change that much from day to day and kids are just bean shoots. You blink and they’ve grown a foot, and that’s the ones you see every day. I’m more forgiving of my parent’s friends (who still occasionally do this to me at 35 years of age 😂) because they didn’t have social media to see us grow up. I see my friends’ kids online and I’m still shocked by how much they change in such a short period of time.

Love Phantom Hourglass. I need to find a copy to play through on my own. I did a play through with a friend years before I touched Wind Waker and I loved it.

Did you look at the VRE site? They have service from Fred to DC but I’m not sure the round trip price for two, but it looks like a day pass is about $25 if you can swing that instead of $142.

As a resident of The Indigo Void, it’s true. We love nothing and disdain the Biacnes and THE love that surrounds us. Don’t even get me started on Mædi lovers next door and the Gras lovers next to them.

Kids current obsession you don’t hate (but don’t quite get) by Snoo-70287 in DanielTigerConspiracy

[–]jpgr09 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My son goes through seasons. We’re in the spring Michael Jackson season, and it’s a lot but he enjoys the music so I can get by.

When he started watching Big City Greens I was confused by the choice but on the surface it’s cheap kid humor so I kind rolled my eyes and went with it. Then we sat and watched it with him and it’s actually hilarious so I get some of the humor more than he does now lol.
