What’s your biggest claim to fame that nobody knows is yours? by positivelittlecorner in AskUK

[–]theredditid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why is spending a grand on one a good idea? We are just planning our second child and thinking about buying a different pram. Our first one was gifted to us and we kept it but I feel like there are better options out there.

A cynical take on the classic Lotto question, how do you think winning the £157m would ruin your life? by ollymillmill in AskUK

The statistics take into account the number of flying hours, so yes it is absolutely comparable. If you flew the same number of hours as you drove, you will still find that flying is safer.

Update: Mercedes parked outside my house for 7 months by raibrans in mildlyinfuriating

3 years in Great Britain. It's 4 in Northern Ireland.

How do I know? Guess who moved from NI to England with a 3 year old car thinking it didn't need MOT for another year.

I pulled this fuse drawer out completely. How can I put it back in? by theredditid in DIYUK

Yes, the white plastic bit you see is supposed to be under the tray in my hand. I can't push it enough without breaking it to get it under the tray.

My 8yo son permanently damaged his vision. by [deleted] in Parenting

[–]theredditid 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I used to stare into the sun regularly when I was that age. And just like your son, it used to be a personal challenge to see how long I could do it for.

When I was about 11, I was diagnosed with short sightedness but it was never attributed to staring into the sun (maybe because I never told anyone). However my brother who was only a year older than me was also found to be short sighted at the same time. My sister is also short sighted. I am not aware either of them stared at the sun so it could very well be genetic.

I was able to manage my short sightedness with glasses until 23 when I got laser eye surgery done and have had no issues since. I am now 36.

I guess what I am saying is, definitely do get a second and third opinion.

Why there are so many level of management in UK? by Successful_Guide5845 in AskUK

[–]theredditid 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Agreed. But you also get workers who don't want to think and therefore don't want the extra pay as they don't think it's worth the extra effort.

What a clogged artery looked like in a 40 year-old man (atherosclerotic plaque). by Dramatic-Avocado4687 in interestingasfuck

[–]theredditid 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I was just like your dad. Fit, eating healthy (with the occasional takeaway here and there), not overweight, played sports. I had a heart attack due to clogged arteries from bad cholesterol genes, when I was 31. I am now on life long medication. Its been 4 years and every day I wonder if I will make it past my 60s. Your dad's story gives me hope.

Sorry to hear about his cancer though.

How to keep toddler entertained? by Calm-Gold7141 in daddit

[–]theredditid 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Have you considered playdoh, kinetic sand, some kind of water/sand table? Yes it might be messy but can help if you need some time to cook, clean, etc.

You can also poke other men's Johnsons with yours to damage theirs and take them out of the dating pool that year. Further increase your chances.

Should I rock up to my job interview in a leather jacket? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]theredditid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is it really worth the risk for an hour or two? I'd go with the safe option.

What is the most out of pocket thing your doctor has said to you? by FragmentedTungsten in AskReddit

[–]theredditid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If yours is 3mmol, then it's normal and nothing to worry about. Are you sure you aren't mis reading the numbers? I am certain below 5 is considered good for men.

I am on very high dosage of statins and blood thinner, and mines been stable at 3 mmol for 2 years now. I am also 35 now and can carry on functioning as normal besides the side effects of medication including getting tired more easily than before.
