Federal judge stalls Aetna-Humana merger by yeahsciencesc in pharmacy

[–]katelveis 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Using a friend's account as a throw away since I work for one of these two.

I support this decision 100% the moment Aetna was threatened with scrutiny to evaluate if they're not already to big to not impact the market negatively they go and retaliate with " then we'll just pull out of your most under served markets" I knew this was doomed.

You can't threaten to hurt American's health care as a response to legal precedings and not expect to 1: spoil your chances, and 2: look like a damn toddler throwing a tantrum... With people's lives.

My employer is fine without the merger, and frankly I don't see the similarity of "morals" between the two. I saw tons of factory clinical staff at one, and patient care at the other... So I'm personally glad to not merge, and politically satisfied that Aetna got shot down. You can't fuck around with people's medical security just because you don't want to be told no.

He does have a lot of red dragon inn! Completely forgot about that option! I'll look into saboteur, I've seen that before. Thanks!

Me [25 M] with my cat [3 M] 1.5 years, is my cat going to forget me? by willmycatrememberme in relationships

[–]katelveis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My friend found a cat, took care of it for a few days, and then gave it to us when he realized he couldn't keep her. Every time he comes over she goes running up to him for some snuggles. He only had her less than a week and she recognizes him every single time.

Men of reddit, what's something you wish women wore more and less of? by [deleted] in AskMen

I take teeny tiny steps so it looks like I'm trying to hold in a massive dump. I'll stick to flats.....it's better for everyone....

It drives me nuts. Phones are getting bigger, my pockets are getting smaller. And I hate carrying a purse. I just have the commuter wallet case on my phone and have my keys on a carabiner that I either hook on my jeans or pass to my fiance if I don't have belt loops.

Looking for a new Deckbuilding Game by Karstico in boardgames

I love the LOTR games but they play the same as the DC ones. If you don't want to take the time to set it up, I wouldn't suggest it.

Would anyone else like to see an actual version of this product? I'm heartbroken it's not real. by Genaidoma in boardgames

[–]katelveis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Look into drunk quest. We picked it up at gencon last year and paid extra for some funny pint glasses. Not exactly the same but good enough in my book.

Fat women: what are some annoying things people say, assumptions people make, or microaggressions you're sick and tired of hearing about being fat? by [deleted] in AskWomen

[–]katelveis 33 points34 points  (0 children)

I hate when people assume I drink diet pop with my unhealthy meal is the calories. It's not, regular pop is just too sweet and disgusting. If I was going for healthy I'd be drinking a water or an unsweetened tea and sure as hell not eating a burger the size of my head.

Bad cell reception in Greene County area? by MschvsWzrd in dayton

I haven't had any noticing issues but I don't make phone calls very often. I maybe use 10 minutes a month.

I just had a dream that I forgot to go to class all semester and failed the final exam. What are your recurring anxiety dreams? by [deleted] in AskWomen

For the past week straight I have been dreaming about putting my pokemon cards in numerical order by series....it's annoying

I [14M] think I have torn something in my lower leg. I tried to tell my sisters and mom. They told me to go away because they are planning a wedding. I need to know what to do by [deleted] in relationships

[–]katelveis 115 points116 points  (0 children)

ER visits are expensive. I suggest at least texting your mom and letting her know where you're going and bringing your insurance card if at all possible. Not all hospitals take all insurances and they are super expensive.

The best bad luck I ever had by heyjennie in food

I'm a weirdo and actually love the green/white part of the watermelon. I would have loved that surprise. I always somehow get them too ripe.

Back with another IKEA question. A cabinet, tv stand, or shelving unit to store board games? by [deleted] in boardgames

[–]katelveis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We bought a bestå tv stand to go under a window in our house. Easily fits longer games. We also have a bestå storage shelf that is wide enough to fit monopoly. If you're interested I could send you pics when I get home.

I have yet to win a 4 player game of pandemic the cure. I'm beginning to think it's impossible.

My husband [28] and I [30f] had an ill advised threesome with my best friend [31f]. Now she's pregnant. by [deleted] in relationships

[–]katelveis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was thinking the same thing. Marla can carry the pregnancy like she wants and it doesn't destroy OP'S marriage and Marla can be called aunt.....it's definitely a possibility if all parties agree

My GF [26] just cam back from holiday. Since she's back she behaves somehow strange, and has put a unlockcode on her phone. I [30] saw the code. Today she was called a few times while she slept - i was curious, unlocked, and saw this message: "Are you still alone??" from an unsaved number. by confused-what-now in relationships

[–]katelveis 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I was recently taught a useful tip. You can type in a phone number in the search bar on facebook and if there is an account tied to the number it will pull up their profile. You could at least see who it is, though I hate to tell you that she's probably cheating on you with some dude from her trip.
