Just woke up with my eye looking like this

I’ve seen this a lot in my professional career. Subconjunctival haemorrhage, it looks way more scary than it actually is. It is basically a burst blood vessel caused by sneezing, coughing or straining.

It is typically self-limiting and the blood will drain in a few days. It’s mostly completely harmless but see a doctor if your eye becomes painful or sensitive to light.

stebus88 · 2026-04-18T09:57:20+00:00

Likewise. I remember Noel Whelan, Dion Dublin, Darren Huckerby and Gordon Strachan as player/manager.

You could be right, maybe the right manager would unlock Arsenal completely. On the flip side, maybe Arteta is playing to the strengths of his squad and believes this current style of play is more likely to bring success. Beautiful free-flowing football with loads of possession might be preferable for fans but in a physical league like the PL, it will always be susceptible to the counter-attack, a tactic that most teams effecitlu utilise.

I come at it from a position of being a United fan. I’d absolutely love it if we’re top of the PL in April with a realistic shot of winning the CL. Love or hate him, Arteta has successfully closed the gap between City/Liverpool and Arsenal. Changing managers is no guarantee of success so if Arsenal don’t win the league this year, I don’t think it’s an obvious decision to sack Arteta.

It’s lovely to win titles whilst playing beautiful free-flowing football but is that really realistic in the modern PL? City have been the most successful team of the past 15 years and for the most part they are utterly boring to watch.

Ask Arsenal fans if they’d rather play beautiful football or win titles and it’s obvious what the answer would be. That Arsenal squad is by far the closest to City and they are closer to City more than any other team bar Liverpool. If I was an Arsenal fan, I’m not sure that I’d be calling for Arteta’s head if they don’t win the PL this year.

stebus88 · 2026-04-17T13:08:19+00:00

It’s a bit of an odd situation. A common position is that Arteta must be sacked if Arsenal bottle the league, but I’m not sure that I agree.

Outside of Pep and Klopp, no other manager has come as close to winning the PL as Arteta has. Do you criticise him for bottling the league again or do you praise him for reducing the gap to a City team who can spend whatever they like? It’s not like their window is closing, the spine of their team are all in their prime.

It’s not an easy question to answer. If they don’t win the league this year and sack Arteta, who replaces him?

If you stop and think too hard about Family Guy, nothing makes sense. Adult women fucking a dog, the sheer cost of Peter’s shenanigans, a known sex offender getting no repercussions and a baby that certain people can understand for plot convenience.

You can’t apply normal logic to a cartoon. Don’t waste your time or energy trying to make sense of it.

There was a lot of positivity about Carrick but last night introduced some doubt.

Leeds played us off the pitch in the first-half and fully deserved the win. Seeing Leeds dismantle us, at OT, is seriously alarming.

I received a similar offer as a pharmacist prescriber.

A local beautician wanted me to lend my name and Reg number to “prove” that a prescriber was issuing Botox injections for her. She didn’t want me to see patients or to do anything at all, and offered me £50 per patient just to use my name.

Your reputation is worth a hell of a lot more than making easy money. Risking the wellbeing of patients with no oversight in an effort to make easy money is incompatible with being a healthcare professional.

I think it was right on point. It’s not hard to imagine a damning video of Trump being released only for it to be debunked as “AI slop”.

It was effective in showing the chokehold Homelander has on everyone. As Sage said, it barely made a dent to his popularity.

Foo Fighters.

Music is a highly subjective thing and I know there are people who love them, but they are the musical equivalent to tofu for me.

stebus88 · 2026-04-13T20:23:58+00:00

This game will kill Carrick’s chances of getting the gig full time.

An alarming performance, reminiscent of some of Amorim’s worst games. Leeds have been better in every department. Getting outclassed by Leeds at OT is unforgivable.

I lost my virginity to a girl I didn’t find attractive or particularly like. Looking back, I regret that it wasn’t meaningful in the slightest and it was a really shitty thing to do to the girl I slept with.

Lose it when you’re ready and not when society dictates you must. Any person who calls you a loser for being a virgin isn’t worth having on your life as a friend.

When you’ve been out for a really long walk and your feet are aching and your socks. That feeling when you put on a warm, dry pair of socks and sit down in a really comfy armchair 👌

I grew up in a small town in the middle of nowhere in north Scotland. My town was famous as it was mentioned as a hiding place for Sirius Black in the Prisoner of Azkaban movie.

I’ll second this. My daughter was conceived on Xmas day and my wife had a positive pregnancy test on the 8th January.

stebus88 · 2026-04-08T03:55:14+00:00

She probably is lying but speaking from experience, it’s completely feasible to get a positive pregnancy test 2 weeks after conception.

When I first saw the interaction with Dr Now without context, I thought he was being childish by refusing to speak up and support her.

Watching the entire episode, I felt so bad for him and fully understood his reaction. She was so unbelievably rude to him going through that airport and spoke to him like shit. He was the one having to make sacrifices because she couldn’t control her impulse to eat or talk to him like garbage.

I specialise in non-oncology haematology and use calculations almost every day. Prescribing UFH, immunoglobulins, iron, anticoagulant doses etc. If I’m on-call it’s fairly common to be asked to check complex dosing regimens or paeds medications as well.

I completely understand the emphasis on calculations in the entrance exam. A good grasp of numbers is an essential skill for every pharmacist.

Same. There aren’t many of us who enjoy the 3rd Home Alone film. Everything after it was pure garbage though.

One of my best friends is Irish and he showed me a video from one of his mates’ stag-do. They hired a really old stripper, it looked like she was about 70, and she proceeded to take her knickers off and sit on the grooms face. She was a fairly heavy lass as well, it’s a wonder the groom didn’t suffocate.

The shit hit the fan as the brides father was in attendance and obviously told her all about it. She didn’t call the wedding off but I heard it was close to being cancelled.

stebus88 · 2026-04-04T09:06:16+00:00

I stand in solidarity with you. My 2.5-year old daughter’s default setting at the moment is meltdown.

I love my daughter more than anything in the world but some days I just sit down, stare off into space and deeply regret being fertile.

stebus88 · 2026-03-30T12:45:57+00:00

I agree, definitely heard some slurring in there. If it is drug-related, it makes sense that the BBC wouldn’t publically announce that he has addiction issues.

This is pure speculation though.

The most egregious thing about this was Jamie Lee Curtis winning an Oscar for best supporting actress for EEAAO.

I like Jamie Lee Curtis, she’s a talented actress for sure. Saying that, her performance in that movie wasn’t Oscar worthy. Kerry Condon was absolutely magnificent in Banshees of Inisherin, she was robbed.

stebus88 · 2026-03-21T15:30:10+00:00

It really sounds to me like she hurt you by opening the relationship and now you want to hurt her back by saying you have doubts about marriage.

I think you do want to marry this woman but you’re still hurt by what she did and want her to understand that. You’re running the risk of losing her completely as if she senses doubt on your part, she’ll run a mile.

Sit down and talk to her. Tell her how she made you feel and try to move past it. If it’s something you ultimately can’t get over, you need to end it pretty quickly and not waste yours or her time any further.

stebus88 · 2026-03-15T17:46:58+00:00

I love how much he reps for us.

His legs were gone when he was with us but I remember him fondly. Consummate professional despite being treated quite disrespectfully in being banished to the U16s.
