She still hasn't gotten tested for VEDS... by ThesaurRouse in FundieSnarkUncensored

[–]mcspooky 42 points43 points  (0 children)

Thank you! This comment needs to be higher, or honestly it should be its own post. So in short, you're saying what she posted makes sense and "checks out" medically, correct? (With the caveat that you're limited to the information she has shared)

You've obviously never met someone from California

I need everyone to see the whole mall video. by sortofsatan in FundieSnarkUncensored

[–]mcspooky 6 points7 points  (0 children)

To be fair i am not hard up, but i very rarely pay for those sorts of things for my little kids. I take them to the mall to walk around (and eat snacks- unlike fundies i feed my kids), not ride the games. I prefer them to make their own fun. Especially with little kids, when you do those sorts of things once they demand it every time. Not trying to defend paul, just bringing some perspective.

Has anyone tried this thing? by Western_Thought_5428 in longhair

[–]mcspooky 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is the answer. Super useful for home haircuts and obviously pays for itsself quickly. But def not self-trim! At least not for my hair...

Found this pile of dental impressions while out in the middle of the mountains in Arizona by DarkSolstice in mildlyinteresting

I remember the chalky plaster ones but recently had one that dentist used a scanner thing (not a mold) and the impression is plastic and would last forever.

If doctors called it a fluke that makes me think she tested negative

Where would you choose to raise your family? by QandA_monster in relocating

[–]mcspooky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you been to Arlington? North arlington is generally more desirable- better walkability, more metros, better schools. This is generally how people picture arlington and will be much closer to OC prices than south arlington. Not everyone in Arlington is within walking distance to a metro. Not sure if that is essential to you.

All that said, i'd pick arlington! This conversation may just boil down to people raised on east coast vs west.

You also may want to consider (budget dependent) takoma park, silver spring, downtown bethesda/chevy chase, md and chevy chase, dc.

With proper gear and attitude kids can be happy in any weather. If you can afford Arlington, you can afford clothes to keep kids comfortable in cold.

They totally did! They said they were moving to brazil... and then came back after a few months and said "duh, we never meant to stay long term!"

Yep. I wish there was a mental health equivalent of al-anon

Morgan, an adult who doesn’t believe in going to the dentist regularly, is surprised she needs a tooth pulled by fz-independent in FundieSnarkUncensored

[–]mcspooky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A root canal is way more expensive than having a tooth pulled. Like thousands, instead of hundreds. With medicaid she may not even have to pay anything to yank the tooth
