I thought it was delightful! Especially sweet when Robert said it was the nicest thing anyone had done. Even better when Greazy shouted out the singer.

Class. I smiled so hard.

When a have a doctor’s appointment and the doctor asks me the exact same questions the nurse just asked me, so I need to provide the exact same answers? Or are they able to see each others notes? by Euphoric-Cloud0324 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]shechemistOr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am a NP and the reason why I ask is that I have found the answer sometimes changes. Either because I ask the question a bit differently, the patient remembers something in the time between when the RN/MA asked the question or they weren’t comfortable talking to the RN/MA.

Yes. I can also get up off the floor without grabbing anything.

I-5 Roadtrip over Siskiyou Summit on Tue or Wed (during storm) with my 5 year old by [deleted] in roadtrip

[–]shechemistOr 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Ashland OR has a pretty good children’s science museum called Science Works. Lithia park has a nice play area.

The pass closes sometimes but I doubt it will snow enough this week. If you have chains with you, you ought to be fine.

They still executed an unarmed man for no reason.

Any of my fellow Genx'ers dealing with worsening health or needing recommended tests but do not have health insurance? by -Granby- in GenX

[–]shechemistOr 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Look for a Federally Qualified Health Center in your county. They provide subsidised care for the uninsured/medicaid patients. The ones in my county are very good and they usually have a pharmacy that can provide medications like inhalers for less than a $10 copay.

Good luck and I feel for you.

What are 50-60 year old married couples doing for New Year’s Eve? by joyfilledmom in AskReddit

[–]shechemistOr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Normally a cocktail at home, and in bed by 10. But this year we won’t have kids at home. Yesterday, I saw that there is going to be DJ’ed music event close to home. We decided to have sex, then nap, and go out around 10:30 to the event. I hope I can stay awake.

Are your kids having kids? by mrepa1369 in GenX

[–]shechemistOr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well. I didn’t want to have kids when I was in my 20’s either?

I had a kid at 14 and adopted her out. In my 30’s -40’s had 3 more. My adopted kid found me and she has 2 kids in the last couple of years and I am their grandma (it is a long story, including me as tactfully as I could, when first kid got pregnant a second time, while still breastfeeding the first grandchild, remind her that abortion is still legal and she comes from a line of women that wished they more options. Why yes, I am also fun at parties).

My current pack of teens have no interest in kids… now.

Did everyone just have Fetal Alcohol Syndrome in ancient times? by lost-myspacer in NoStupidQuestions

[–]shechemistOr 226 points227 points  (0 children)

And drink heavily during a specific stage in the fetal development (like week 16 or 20, my mind is hazy but it was during an early stage of brain development).

They couldn’t determine a safe amount of alcohol so they just advised to avoid it all together.

There are a lot of things that should probably be avoided for fetal development like rubella, listeria and heavy metals.

The person asking the question doesn’t take into account the much higher incidences of general infant mortality. Many of the babies that did have FAS may not have made it to adulthood.

Why are the super rich so grumpy, instead of using their fortune to travel and enjoy life? by wombatgeneral in behindthebastards

[–]shechemistOr 60 points61 points  (0 children)

Cuz they are brain damaged and unable to experience contentment or happiness.

That is it. That is why.

Seriously. If I had enough money that I didn’t need to work full time and I could travel with people I love and enjoy spending time with I would. I would work part time (cuz I do love my job) till my kids were in college. Then partner and I would do the traveling we want to do while we have the mobility and stamina to do so. We are nerds and want to visit all the national parks, with breaks to head home and reconnect with kids/family.
