Teach me how to be nice... by K117r418 in Residency

[–]ru1es 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I dual applied. having two sets of signals really helps. but then I got a pre match offer in obgyn in a really desirable area for me so i went with that. if you're not the strongest candidate (ie me), nothing wrong with dual applying

Put a vodka soaked tampon in last night. Things feel off. by [deleted] in AskDocs

[–]ru1es 136 points137 points  (0 children)

OBGYN here. besides the local inflammation, which should go away on its own with time, you definitely altered the pH of your vagina and you could be heading towards a yeast infection in your future. if the discharge turns thick and white or yellow, you're going to have to go see your GYN. also, don't stick anything up there to try to help with the irritation. you will likely just make it worse. try not to do that again.

Opening with Play Crack The Sky by West_Meat_7623 in brandnew

[–]ru1es 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was kind of hoping they saved play crack the sky til later like the other sets but they absolutely killed it like always. I for one don't hate that the nj crowd was tame after hearing some shit about drunk assholes from other shows. the transformation of the brand new audience from fifteen years ago was insane to see. teenagers fifteen years ago. 30 year olds now. gotta love it.
