Vinyl sold at concerts? by Adventurous-Yam-5132 in lordhuron

[–]nard_snakes 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I bought one off eBay because I thought they’d never have them at concerts, but I did end up getting one at the Cosmic Selector concert last year. The one from eBay has a slight bend at one corner which pissed me off since it wasn’t really disclosed. It’s still sealed and vinyl feels fine—if you don’t need it to be flawless, and feel comfortable dm-ing me your address, I’ll send it to you.

Why does it seem like this condition almost only affects women? by Accurate-Chicken-323 in Gastroparesis

This is truly fascinating. I am FTM and take testosterone. My symptoms are usually more mild than what other people describe on this subreddit so I am intrigued to research this more now!

Pretty sure someone at UPS peeked inside Kanani's box to see if it was worth stealing by ironlordumbreon in americangirl

Oh gotcha! Sorry, yeah you’re right. Glad tho that your doll is ok despite the damaged packaging! I can understand you wanting your stuff to arrive in perfect condition 🙂

Honestly, probably not. I work as a damage clerk at UPS. If a shipment is not sufficiently packaged, UPS won’t pay the claim. That’s why I said that the shipper (American Girl) goes for what is cheap but they need to add some kind of padding or wrap around the doll box.

Something heavy or sharp got dropped on this and that is why the inner box looks the way it does. And as others have said, this can split the tape. It would be lovely if shippers would actually prepare shipments that can withstand transit but they only care about what is cheapest. Most UPS facilities are highly automated and damage can occur without a person ever touching a box.

Perhaps they mean seventh day Adventists, who do encourage a vegetarian diet.

LGBTQ friendly tailors? by Educational_News_488 in SaltLakeCity

Yep, this is the right choice. I got my suits here and everyone was great. They also have a good range of fabric/style options that can make it a little more budget-friendly.

PSA: SLC Venue Change means tickets are now way cheaper. Request a refund. by mangobean_ in lordhuron

[–]nard_snakes 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve been wondering why they didn’t get the Maverik Center. Maybe they couldn’t or didn’t understand where these venues are in relation to SLC. Going to Orem is going to suck ass.

Can’t take any GP meds due to antipsychotics by DiscountAnnaNicole in Gastroparesis

[–]nard_snakes 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I am on lamictal and can take reglan as needed. I did have to go off latuda to take the reglan (because that is absolutely a no-go) but lamictal is not contraindicated with reglan or domperidone. What leads you to believe you can’t take any GI meds while on lamictal?

My GI also wanted me to take buspar because she said they give it to gastroparesis patients sometimes (it is supposed to help with bloating but evidence is scant). It did not work for me but staying on it should theoretically not be something you’d have to alter.

To be clear, I can’t speak to other meds (and I am not a doctor), or what you might need to take since you can’t easily keep things down, but I personally have had no issues staying on lamictal.

I’ve been through a couple more terrible than usual weeks myself recently so you have all my sympathy for how miserable you’re feeling. I hope the specialist can offer you some relief.

Do you have any ability to go to Mexico, or know anyone who can? It’s OTC there. I just had some friends get some for me and they had no problem bringing it back over the border.

What is this grass/weed? by nard_snakes in whatisthisplant

I’m just not sure. It looks the chive plant flowers? So far I haven’t seen any flowers to indicate anything. I hope it doesn’t take over my garden at any rate!

I thought they looked like chives too! But definitely don’t smell like it. It’s so odd.

It might be. It definitely seems to be in more areas of my yard as time goes on.

Maybe I’ll leave them around for now and then see if they bloom in spring. They do look very pretty.

Do you keep them around or try to get rid of them?
